1. You and yourself form your being. But by that, what am I meaning?
Dualism is moot, no schism is true,
and identity's not all it's seeming.
2. Post-cholecystectomy [ko le sis tek toe mee]. This back pain will be the death of me.
"Right shoulder pain" became "mild strain"?
Docs ask how they're "enemy".
3. Counselling Level 3 coursework at this point feels like mild torture.
How can I stand 'Review Action Plan'
when my options send me to torpor?
4. UPR, ethics, and feel what you notice (for therapy, real).
Set forth Carl Rogers, Person-Centred's starter.
Humanistic counsell -- his whole deal.
5. I say Integrative Therapy
mixes together all three
approaches today taught in the UK:
Per-Centered, PsyDynamic, CBT.
6. Level 4 is the min you need right now to practise therapy.
You can still joke out quite a belter, as long as your role stays "helper".
One more word for client: "helpee".
7. For me, relearning MMA (medical-wise) has stayed "nay".
I have no energy, nor makeup on peak.
Who knows? Maybe... one day...
8. Just like spoiling a plot, repeat triggerers get blocked.
You ought aim not cause harm, if wish you to spare alarm.
Or... had we forgot?
9. Through others do we know ourself?
With lovers, we learn what we're dealt.
Your bodymind chooses which traits it loses,
plus those for which you far delve.
10. Sometimes you can guess your traumas. Meds' side effects include nausea.
Bothered ye to get yourselves through.
I never unlocked Bozja.
11. You can not make me start work. Although I feel like a jerk.
My tutor awaits the far-past-due date.
On this seat, I stay and I lurk.
12. Nonbinary goes known. Get up here, come, have a go.
"Are you masculine?"
"Are you feminine?"
Robot, femboy, and crone!
13. Gender is what your brain be, while expression is acting, you see.
Attraction to parts, updates and larks.
Oh no, sexuality!
14. Asexuals may be or not queer.
All aces stay welcome here.
Agender folk face too many jokes.
Aromantics write slash fics or jeer.
15. It's okay to ask for help. Whether or not you feel well.
While systems are limited, your needs stay existent.
We need to thunderclap-yell.
With spring in focus
And winter's hocus pocus
In the blink of an eye
In the garden I spy
Magic visions of crocus!
A Limerick seemed fitting today. :())

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Don't send strangers money,
If it feels too good to be true!
To all my lovely nerdy, wordy peeps - this is DELIGHTFUL.
'The Perception of Rhythm in Language' by psycholinguist Dr. Anne Cutler, published in 1994.
1994! How could I not have known of this before now?
But today, I am one of the lucky 10, 000 - and so, my friend, are you.
(There are links in the article to the original paper & more about Dr. Cutler. )
It's not about getting everyone to agree with only you since "you're infallible."
Remind people that disagreement exists and is palpable.
Do what you can, of any "amount" or "worth".
You exist, therefore you impact this Earth.
Mnemonic more than lyrical
Deathwatch

I thought I'd share some of my poetry as it seems to be a good place for it. This one is about relationships. I've no idea if its good. Im not trained as a writer or a poet. (Obviously)
Now getting on fine with Puzzle Boat 9!
Up the close an doon the stair
Ben the hoose wi Burke an Hare
Burke’s the butcher, Hare’s the thief
Knox the boy who buys the beef
—cheery wee 19th-century Edinburgh children’s skipping rhyme
Long time, no see
Still cats, still me.
(not bad for that early in the morning)
I love how she reminds us that imperfect rhymes bring energy and more variety to a song.
I used to be in a songwriting group with a guy who wrote “show tune” style songs, and he was always getting on to me for not having perfect rhymes.
He ALWAYS had perfect rhymes, and tbh I thought it made his songs stale and predictable. He insisted that was imperative to the genre. I guess he never studied more modern musicals like #Hamilton.
Starting our session without the session chair and only one speaker present, because of the #tornado warning, at #DH2024, but we're just going ahead with the first paper by Petr Plechac, Artjoms Šeļa, Artjoms, Antonina Martynenko and Ben Nagy on "Gold Standard Annotations for #Rhyme Detection" in #poetry written in various #languages. Petr is presenting.
Work while you work,
Play while you play;
One thing each time,
That is the way.
All that you do,
Do with your might;
Things done by halves,
are not done right.
