I use tags frequently on my posts, but I never made a post actually explaining the significance of each, so I've made a key with the emoticons I use in my headers and why. I have a good sense of self, bad sense of memory, and fluctuating sense of presence, the blogs help me get out thoughts stuck in my head and feel connected with myself and others, the tags help me track of what state I was in (particularly the first two), and it allΒ helps me stay grounded and log moments and feelings I may not remember.
πEarth: If this is in the header, I am fully mentally present while writing the post and/or talking about real life events or feelings. I see the term "down to earth" as being grounded and present inΒ contrast to being a "space cadet" or lost in my head.
πWWW: this means this post was written while dissociating, overthinking, stressed, or in any other altered state of mind that does not accurately reflect my usual presenting behavior. These are internal thoughts and feelings during those moments that I am usually not comfortable with sharing with those around me. These thoughts and feelings are still a part of me, but they do notΒ define me as a whole as they are fleeting and inconsistent.
πFile: This tag is for product reviews! I usually make these in short bursts as my orders usually arrive in combined delivery, so I receive everything at once. I used to not care much for appearances and collectables growing up, but as I've entered college I reflect more on styles and products I enjoy and want to share the products I trust and/or use often- which is why I don'tΒ usually post reviews less than four stars.
πPaperclip: Inspired by Clippy the digital office assistant, this tag is for hacks and tricks for one's convenience, mainly for saving money, I like money, pretty sure everyone does, so I like to save itΒ so I can buy things that bring me joy.
πDVD: Movie/Show recommendation/analysis. I don't watch much TV, I like flims that make me think but I also hate them because then I overthink and get launched into an existential crisis or get very depressed. So I usually watch those kinds of things when I'm already depressed. Other than that, I just watch Transformers to be honest. Even adults need no-brainer cartoonsΒ sometimes. Funny robot men and their multi-million year civil war. I collect figures.
πΏCD:Playlist and music recommendations, I don't do these often because it takes me hours to putΒ together a semi-cohesive playlist, and that's a little annoying.
πBook Stack: Book analysis and recommendations, I'm a very fast reader, but I fall asleep even faster. My demotivation is that I fall asleep and lose my page, then struggle to find where I left off, so I don't read very often. There is no reason for my high school class to have elected me "no.1Β bookworm" but plenty reason for electing me "most likely to fall asleep in class"
πΎFloppy Disk: Art, I don't know how to embed images and it seems that feature is currently notΒ working anyway, so my work will not be showcasing anytime soon unless it is fixed.
