A Blacksmith that makes movie weapons tackles Finn’s sword from Adventure Time.
This was amazing to watch. He makes the blade gold by heating it to a certain temperature.
This is an awesome video and a very skilled swordsmith.
This guy only has 3 videos so far, but it seems like he intends to post a video every week and I intend to watch every one of them because BLACKSMITHS
MATHEMATICAL IN THE MOST EXTREME SENSE OF THE WORD

Grounding is a technique that helps keep someone in the present. They help reorient a person to the here-and-now and in reality. Grounding skills can be helpful in a variety of situations: with dissociation symptoms; and managing overwhelming feelings or intense anxiety. They help someone to regain their mental focus from an often intensely emotional state.
Grounding skills occur within two specific approaches:
1) Sensory Awareness
2) Cognitive Awareness
Sensory Awareness Grounding Exercise #1:
Begin by tracing your hand on a piece of paper and label each finger as one of the five senses. Then take each finger and identify something special and safe representing each of those five senses. For example: Thumb represents sight and a label for sight might be butterflies or my middle finger represents the smell sense and it could be represented by lilacs. After writing and drawing all this on paper, post it on your refrigerator or other safe places in the home where it could be easily seen and memorize it. Whenever you get triggered, breathe deeply and slowly, and put your hand in front of your face where you can really see it – stare at your hand and then look at each finger and try to do the five senses exercise from memory.
Exercise #2:
• Keep your eyes open, look around the room, notice your surroundings, notice
details.
• Hold a pillow, stuffed animal or a ball.
• Place a cool cloth on your face, or hold something cool such as a can of soda.
• Listen to soothing music
• Put your feet firmly on the ground
• FOCUS on someone’s voice or a neutral conversation.
Sensory Awareness Grounding Exercise #3:
Here’s the 54321 “game”.
• Name 5 things you can see in the room with you.
• Name 4 things you can feel (“chair on my back” or “feet on floor”)
• Name 3 things you can hear right now (“fingers tapping on keyboard” or “tv”)
• Name 2 things you can smell right now (or, 2 things you like the smell of)
• Name 1 good thing about yourself
Cognitive Awareness Grounding Exercise:
Reorient yourself in place and time by asking yourself some or all of these questions:
1. Where am I?
2. What is today?
3. What is the date?
4. What is the month?
5. What is the year?
6. How old am I?
7. What season is it?
Re-blogging because these have SAVED MY LIFE when it comes to my dissociation, panic attacks, and when my anxiety or emotions get out of hand. Maybe the single most useful tool my therapist has given me, keeping me in the here-and-now. Try some! And take care of yourself <3

just a lil PSA:
- there’s nothing wrong with people IDing as trans* or queer just because of the internet
- they’re not “faking it”
- because often times, the internet helps them reconcile and put a name (sometimes) to what they feel inside
- and there’s also nothing wrong with transitioning back if that identity doesn’t feel right to you
- and also gender is very confusing and it DOES fluctuate so don’t get irrationally angry if people change their name/identity often

- not protecting rape victims
- not protecting homeless, destitute or disabled people
- not protecting victims of domestic violence
- not protecting victims of child abuse
- not protecting victims of racialized, anti-transphobic, anti-queer violence
- yelling about how privileged people totally have it hard and totally can’t be blamed for being privileged because they totally never oppressed anyone even though like i’m pretty sure harassing a bunch of queer people and POC because they talk about their lives is like, contributing to their oppression and stuffs REAL SJ
- coming up with excuses for why they can be nazi sympathizing, woman hating, genocide cosigning rape apologists who call everyone a nigger and misgender them but still be “better at SJ than SJWs”
- reblogging literally everything they can and calling it receipts because they have no actual clue what receipts are but hey you talked about that time you ate a cookie that’s receipts right? “evidence of anything”. WELL I HAVE EVIDENCE YOU ATE A COOKIE YOU SJW COOKIE EATIN—
- harassing people and violating their boundaries until they tell them to fuck off and die and then talking about how awful it is to tell someone to fuck off and die but say precious little about how awful it is to harass someone for a year
- discussing how they are so much better at SJ and they aren’t even SJ—wait someone did something that i just harassed an SJW for doing yesterday? did they do it TO an SJW? yes? oh sorry we’re not all alike can’t help errybody anyway man i am so glad i am better at SJ than SJWs. wouldn’t want people to like, put down REAL issues like people actually being homeless, physically and mentally abused and without any way to care for their failing health—-HAHA OMG that evil SJW bitch totally had being homeless and abused coming to her cause she was a BITCH—where was i? oh yeah. real SJ must be glad i’m around to help them fix this fake SJ stuff.
Adding to this:
- Talking about how all SJers are white rich people sitting in their houses but somehow never manages to harass those actual rich white people just poor broke dark skin queer trans people.
