Nerd Church - 10 Self-Care Reminders For When You're Extra-Busy, or Working Extra-Hard
Yep, this is both a self-care exercise and a blogpost. THAT is multitasking 😎
So sometimes, when we're busy, we forget to take care of ourselves - especially mental-health-wise. I'm officially the world's worst for this - I overwork A LOT.
So, here's a few things I have to remind myself of - and I hope they help you too!

Friday Fics Fix - Sleepy Stucky
OK, I know it was Stucky last week, but this is my blog dammit!
Plus I'm currently typing this in the spare quarter of an hour or so that I have free today, while playing my 'getting sh** done' playlist, which contains copious amounts of rock and heavy metal
(Because if anything can get me through this week, it's Avenged Sevenfold and Stone Sour! Lol, I'm so busy and so freaking tired! *laughs slightly hysterically*)

Comics Wrap-Up - Short 'n' Sweet
OK, so, I haven't had much time for the comics-y-ness this week, because I'm suuuuper busy (that's a type of super, after all! Lol,) so I just have a few fun things in the 'Other Stuff' category.
(And, as always, I blame Loki for there only being 'other stuff.')

Month in Review(s) - November 2017
November was one of those super-busy months where I barely had time to think!
As such, guys, I apologise if I've been a little more AWOL than usual.
I haven't had much chance to be social and all that - so, hi! I am still here! XD

Nerd Church - Break the Effing Cycle
I'm pi**ed off. I'm really pi**ed off. Because the only bank branch, of any type, left in my town, is set to close.
Why should that pi** me off? It's only a bank, right?
Have you lived in a poor area? Because I f**king do.
Have you lived in a poor area? Because I f**king do.
And when things leave, they don't come back. When things leave, they take jobs, money, chances...
When things leave, they take hope with them.

Friday Fix Fics - Hate To Twist Your Mind
Fanfiction is hyped up on emotion.
No, really. I reckon that's why it's such good bibliotherapy - all the emotions are right there, on the ever-loving surface, just waiting to be processed.
We even invented 'all the feels!' as a catchphrase for pretty much all fandom, for God's sakes!
