I don’t have anything planned for either of these momentous occasions (one of which I honestly NEVER thought would happen), but I just want to share some love and thank all of you for making my tumblr experience so fantastic and for enriching my life so much for so long. To friends old and new, those of you who have stuck around for so long, and those of you who are more recent additions to my little tumblr universe, thank you.
There’s 15 years’ worth of doctor/rose (mostly, but far from entirely, nine/rose) fic recs in those pages, between teaspoon and here and AO3, and nine years’ worth of extensive tumblr tagging, so go nuts! ;)
I had an actual revelation in my mid-20s that no, I did not love both equally. I am predominantly a cat person. I need the liquid flop and purring not the sharp elbows and tongues
Comcast CEO Brian Roberts Says Comcast “More Likely Than Not” To Sell Hulu Stake To Disney
Earlier this year, Disney CEO Bob Iger said that everything was on the table, with regards to the future of Hulu, and potentially selling it. But following the news that Disney is planning on making Hulu an add-on to Disney+, to provide subscribers with a one-app experience, there has been lots of speculation about Disney buying out Comcast’s remaining 33% stake in Hulu.
This week, during a MoffettNathanson TMT conference, the CEO of Comcast, Brian Roberts has said that it’s “more likely than not” that it would be selling its stake in Hulu to Disney.
“I think it’s more likely than not that we go through with what we said all along. That … they’ll put, we’ll call at the beginning of next year. I think Disney recognized as anybody else would recognize that Hulu is really valuable”.
He added:
“The fact is that Bob Iger, on his earnings call last week, said that they’re now back interested in general entertainment, which is no surprise,”
Hi I don’t have the mental bandwidth or emotional energy at the moment to post about current issues the way I want to but I just wanted to say
If you’re anything like me your mind may be putting your whole body into MAJOR survival mode…fight/flight/freeze/fawn mode, etc.
And if so, these are moments when DEEP BREATHING truly helps. That’s not some woo woo thing it’s just a deeply known scientific fact about how brains work. (Your body’s inherent wisdom knows if you’re able to take a deep breath, you’re not ACTUALLY in literal survival mode.) There’s so much we can’t control. But we can control this.
Take a really slow, deep breath…love you guys.
This is distress tolerance 101 yall
For Temperature in PARTICULAR - if you fill a bowl with ice water and submerge your face as long as you can stand? It will reset your fear response along with thoughts. Patients who have panic disorders, addiction issues, and self-harm use that one in particular and it works MAGIC. Hell *I* use temperature - the ice bowl face dunk - for ME when shit is gets unbearable and it works a treat.
If you’re having a hard time, distress tolerance is the buzz phrase to look up.
Take care of yourself out there guys
Here’s some gifs to help focus on your breathing exercises:
today i received an ask from someone needing money for their cat, and i was surprised to receive an ask instead of an IM, so i went digging, and there were some red flags, which i’ll share for all of you:
the asker’s blog was created today
the asker does not follow me or any of my friends
the only people who reblogged the asker’s post requesting help were also blogs just created today
the asker requested money via paypal, rather than a safer site like gofundme, or even asking for donations to the specific vet’s office
all of these details together are sketchy, no matter how nice the asker was in my askbox, and how much they wanted me to think that they were legit.
the beauty of tumblr is that it is built on relationships. there are so many people out there who need help, and it’s fine if they post here. but if you want to help someone, always make sure they’re legit and not trying to scam you. and knowing them, or someone you follow knowing them, or them having a blog with an extensive history and engagement with lots of real people, is a good place to start.
ANOTHER MOMENT, ANOTHER CHANCE TO PROVE LOVE. TODAY IS THE DAY TO KICK OPEN THE DOOR AND FLOOD THE VOID WITH RADIANT LIGHT OF CREATION SAYING ‘I AM HERE AND I AM UNIQUE. THIS IS MY POWER.’ LOVE IS REAL BUD LETS TROT HERE WE GO
