Tumblr Navigation: Chapter 1, Chapter 2

Based on @chriscalledmesweetie 's Mrs Hudson's Fluff Brew! Give it a read and some love!

I saw a post the other day about how difficult mindfulness meditation can be, especially for people who are neurodivergent, and OP was frustrated that their therapist never recommended anything else. There are many opportunities to bring mindfulness, focus, and intention to activities you already like! Learning about flow state has been a real eye-opener for me.

TFW you realize you've actually been doing ADHD meditation by baking or cleaning to make yourself feel better.

That makes an annoying amount of sense.

Well hello, Tumblr People! I just finished a Thing that I made for @chriscalledmesweetie as a Fandom Trumps Hate 2025 gift. It's a limerick remix of her fabulous "Mrs Hudson's Fluff Brew". It is illustrated with doodles, the like of which you might find on a middle-schooler's history notebook. I'm chunking it up so it won't take a month to post. Here's the beginning of Chapter 1! I hope you like it.

CHAPTER 1: The Vision

30th January

Martha, a Seer, knows fate Is not just one line going straight. She oft tries to damper The strong urge to tamper, To fix things just in the wrong state.

Our tale begins with a meeting. Sherlock and John give a nice greeting. Martha can tell They match very well. Her urge to assist them is fleeting.

That night, though, a Special Dream tells Of a future with all of the hells. An act of devotion Will put into motion A nightmare. She must use her spells!

AN: Hello, everyone! Back after a long time. :) Gift fic for @jamielovesjam.

Today's my birthday, so this my treat to the fandom. Enjoy! 😊

👏👏👏👏👏

Not an invitation to cocoon yourself in a self-care bubble for four years, but a reminder to the 24/7 worriers that you can literally write "To Do on Monday: Worry about ________" on a post-it note and stop worrying about it for one day while you recharge.

Another point: Both your mental health and your ability to resist will be improved by finding a community. A sorrow shared is a sorrow halved. And apes together strong.

Highlighting connecting to the land here, too. It's not woo woo bullshit that being in nature has incredibly positive, tangible, well-documented impacts on your body and mind (that link is a meta analysis of research from 2011-2021).

But more than that, connecting to the land you are on is an essential part of building a sense of community, connection, and a will to resist. Being sensitive to the natural world- by which I mean literally building up your familiarity with it to better understand your environment and what's happening in & to it, as well as your emotional connection to it- is a fundamental part of protecting and building up your own emotional depth & sensitivity.

Fascism, authoritarianism, and white supremacy all rely on shutting you down emotionally & numbing you to increasing terror, horrors, and cruelty. Joy is resistance. Community is resistance. Love is resistance. Grief is resistance. Sensitivity is resistance.

Don't just touch grass because the internet is toxic and out of touch. Do it because they are actively trying to take your connection to the land away because doing so makes you vulnerable, fearful, numb, disconnected, and easier to control.

What are they pointing at?

Cute doggos.

I am so proud to say that my college is so LGBT friendly, that in a survey Res Life put out they forgot to include straight people.

This is a fucking power move
