How are we?

Quite shocked: David's dead.

[David Earle]

BOWIE. DAVID BOWIE.

Damn shame. F*** cancer.

[Mossy Toes]

The reaper's been a-busy these days. Lemmy, Bowie, Alan Rickman--even the lead singer of the Eagles, now.

Therion, as a dyspraxic myself I can offer some empathy and tell you it isn't all bad. Being bad at something doesn't mean you can't make progress, you can rewire your brain through practice to use some shoddy metaphors. Routines, practice and perseverance help. You just have to work out your coping strategies and know that some days you'll just be off. I can go months without falling down or up some steps now. I'm almost 30.

It is easy to put up your own barriers when you get preoccupied by what you can't do as well as those who aren't neuro diverse. I fall into that trap as well all the time and I suggest you try not to because it makes life shitty.

But on the other people I talk with are fanatically against getting involved and helping me. Like Geradin or Firewind or Chaos Monkey. They could have easily helped me, they just were fanatically against helping people.

I don't know what contact you currently have with any of these people, but based on my experience both on BL and successor forums and others, the problem is at least as much that you are very resistant to advice or external help; you have rejected suggestions for actions you might take to ameliorate your situation, you have responded with hostility when your nihilistic worldviews have been challenged, and generally made most people I've seen who have tried to involve themselves in your life feel as unappreciated and unwelcome as possible.

With that in mind I wonder what it is you actually expect any of these people to have done, especially since as far as I'm aware, they only know you through internet forums and not in real life. It looks to me rather like this is another manifestation of your reluctance to take any responsibility for anything that happens to you and instead blaming it on everyone around you whether they deserve it or not.

I am sorry to be so blunt, but this has been going on for years and years and, among a host of other factors, I don't believe the individuals you've named deserve to be bad-mouthed just because they're no longer here to defend themselves.

So, how are we?

I got so bored of the mundane that I've taken a career break and moved to the countryside... which is proving to be absolutely amazing... i cannot tell you how freeing not living in a city of 8 million people is proving to me.

Hoping to devote some time to writing again for the first time in about 3 years!

[Chun the Unavoidable]

These students don't know they're born, do they?

[Squiggle]

Indeed. And how is Chun?

[Chun the Unavoidable]

Lying in bed post hernia operation wondering if the wound should still be bleeding.

Well, you did ask, dearie.

[Major Rawne]

Would you two get a room already!


In on topic news i'm doing just fine, if a little bored with the usual routine. I feel like I need some excitement in my life.

[Chun the Unavoidable]

It's stopped, now. Apparantly, I have thin blood.

[Squiggle]

thats a good thing then. bleeding is not good.

glad you are ok, Rawne. more excitement you say?
