thank god for the mythbusters though because it used to be that whenever i knew i had insomnia i’d just kind of accept it and stay up doing whatever until my morning classes and spend the day feeling like shit
but then they did an episode where they established that even just fucking laying there for a half hour, not even sleeping just laying there and not even for an hour, makes a significant difference and you’ll feel way better
it has made a huge difference in my life to know that it’s okay if i can’t fall asleep, it takes a lot of the pressure off and ironically helps me fall asleep better
…i did not know this, thank you
If anyone wants to look it up, the episode was specifically the Deadliest Catch crossover ep, and the myth was that it’s better/safer when working a 30 hour shift to take a 20 minute nap every six hours rather than try to power through. They did an obstacle course test, one without naps and one with, and even though they couldn’t even sleep half the time the naps resulted in their scores doubling.
So actually I undersold it, even if it’s 7:40 and your alarm goes off at 8 just lie down and shut your eyes and it will still be better than nothing
bless you
i wish i had known this in college, but oh well
THIS NEEDS TO BE REBLOGGED ALWAYS
also when you think you havn’t slept, you probably have slept and you forgot it or didn’t know you were asleep. you had bad sleep, but it’s better than no sleep.
Shout out to all the childless whores that be fucking up them pretzel lines at disney world. Y’all are the worst and some random mom out there hates you.
I really like the way Metal Gear has its three “Snake” protagonists, who in theory are supposed to be identical in both function and appearance (even sharing voice actors) because they’re clones and body doubles, but are written so distinctly.
Solid Snake is very professional. He keeps everything focused on the mission while on the job, to the point where he may seem cold and distant. Still, softer aspects of his personality shine through when he’s with people he likes, showing a person who’s very caring and even philosophical, as he goes on about love and spending his life in a worthwhile way. Unlike his brother, he seems to have no issue whatsoever with his existence as a clone.
Naked Snake, or Big Boss, was specifically introduced to be very different from Solid, as MGS3 explicitly shows him being brash, even witty, as he jokes around with his colleagues. However, he undergoes radical changes in personality as the series unfolds his story. In every subsequent appearance, the various traumas he endures cause him to become more ruthless, bitter and disillusioned, and he slowly loses his sense of humour and ability to care about others. At the end of the series, as an old man, he’s become full of regret, having never gotten over the loss of his mentor.
Venom Snake (initially) believes himself to be Big Boss, but doesn’t know how to play the part off-mission. He’s got the skills and the looks, but he’s far less vocal. Venom’s personality is mostly shown through his actions. He’s repeatedly shown to care about his staff beyond simply playing the Boss’ role. He panics when Quiet is injured, gets emotional when cremating fallen comrades, and displays extreme guilt over not being able to save Paz’s life. Ironically, he’s probably a better leader than Big Boss is.
