Sure, why not. ‘Angels lament’

Everyone’s so upset about what’s going on on my normal and functional space ship.
Excellent you can join ranks with that one doctor who this story made late for surgery
#same#started reading suddenly it was 5 fucking am
Read about my normal and functional spaceship to absolutely destroy your sleep schedule
This happened to me with their (now finished) serial novel Curse Words, and then their (currently unfinished) story Charlie MacNamara, Galactic Ace when I caught up to Curse Words while it was still in progress.
Simply put, it’s just a thing that happens when it comes to reading Derin’s stories.
I’ve been reliably informed by many, many readers that these stories are specifically crack for ADHD people who usually have difficulty reading and I HAVE NO IDEA WHY. That’s such a random demographic.
Look it happens
#cannot start reading it is already Late
Do you have to do surgery tomorrow? No? Then how bad could it be to start reading.
#me watching horror movies: noooo why would you open the door covered in warnings not to do that!#me reading thos blog post: I should start reading time to orbit
You should do it, nothing will go wrong. You are the master of your sleep schedule and will get plenty of rest. It’ll be fine.
#I am one sentence in and my suspected adhd brain started to fucking. VIBRATE#what the FUCK#I am so happy and am going to get a normal amount of sleep tonight
Ahaha yes another one
Join the ADHD Reader Army
Congratulations, you did invent time travel after all! Unfortunately, instead of the Soviet moon conspiracy thing, all it’s good for is warping your readers several hours into the future.
… I’ll take it.
#what the fuck#started reading and this took the better part of yesterday’s workday and many hours of night and almost all of today’s workday#jesus fucking christ DO NOT START THIS IF U HAVE SOMETHING IMPORTANT TO DO IN THE NEXT 48 HOURS
Counterpoint: reading this story is the important thing you have to do in the next 48 hours.
It’s ok, that other thing can wait.
Just a couple of chapters to see what it’s like, then you can stop and do the other thing.
It’ll be fine.
#um hi oh my fucking gods this is true#I started reading at 9 am and then just kept reading and reading#and then suddenly it’s 1 pm except it’s the next day. whoopsie?
This is the funniest one yet STOP AND EAT SOMETHING
This is really good and I am dying that it is not complete because my brain is cheese and I will inevitably lose track of it.
There should be a button on the website you can click to get email updates, if that’s what you prefer.
One of these days I’m gonna drop this story in the Megamind server and I get the feeling it’s gonna go almost identical to that video of someone throwing an apple off a deep sea rig
Anything called “the Megamind server” can only be chock full of ADHD and autism
Do it
#Not adhd but my sleep schedule is already fragile enough as it is#That is loterally the only reason i put off reading ur novels#That one tma fic with the mannequin was devastating enough
Normal Human Person Mary Sue did nothing wrong
This has the same vibe as that post where they put the sour candy in the energy drink and make horrible soup. So obviously I have to go read it
Uh oh
And I just threw this into my brain in the last 48 hours and I’m mad about space bigots.
A reasonable thing to be mad about
I took a sick day the day after I started reading because I COULDN’T STOP
Medical condition: caught bookworms
#reblog#why is the derin propaganda still going#i managed to avoid the long stories for months#I just know that if I start reading em space and magic will take over my brain#the “short” ones are already enough
If you read them, you can stop worrying about that any more! Wouldn’t that be nice? It’s the sensible thing to do.
First hit is free kid!
Actually all the hits are free. I have a terrible business model.
#the only written work that has ever inspired me to want to make memes#yes i’m rebloggin this again if you haven’t read derin’s stuff yet you must
Please do it I wish to see the memes
Can confirm this consumed my entire life for the last two days, have gone to sleep after the sun came up twice in a row now 😭
And now I’m devastated I have to wait for more! We’re so close to getting more answers!
On the plus side you can sleep now
Genuine question - isn’t that… Just how all reading is? Am I the only person who has been living like this for the past 14 years? You know, you open a fiction and then your brain shakes you up like when it does when you’re falling asleep and it thinks you’re dyibg, six hours later, because you forgot you existed?? That’s just… Everyday experience?????
Yes I am audhd, before you ask.
Nah I’m the same I will literally walk into trees while reading basically any book. But this story seems magnetic specifically for people who have trouble paying attention to books.
having read only a couple chapters, which are amazing so far, if you like this you would probably like the martian and project hail mary by andy weir. they’re very fun to read and have a similar voice, a Space Tube with Problems, and a protagonist who isn’t really qualified to fix things but does so regardless
I saw a post saying that Boromir looked too scruffy in FotR for a Captain of Gondor, and I tried to move on, but I’m hyperfixating. Has anyone ever solo backpacked? I have. By the end, not only did I look like shit, but by day two I was talking to myself. On another occasion I did fourteen days’ backcountry as the lone woman in a group of twelve men, no showers, no deodorant, and brother, by the end of that we were all EXTREMELY feral. You think we looked like heirs to the throne of anywhere? We were thirteen wolverines in ripstop.
My boy Boromir? Spent FOUR MONTHS in the wilderness! Alone! No roads! High floods! His horse died! I’m amazed he showed up to Imladris wearing clothes, let alone with a decent haircut. I’m fully convinced that he left Gondor looking like Richard Sharpe being presented to the Prince Regent in 1813
*electric guitar riff*
And then rocked up to Imladris a hundred ten days later like
Some people have been wondering about the raccoon. Listen. Listennn. Don’t ask about the raccoon.
But does the racoon survive the Uruk-Hai? Does he curl up on Aragorn’s head, or does he go straight to Faramir? Does he bite Denethor?
My friend. My colleague. My brother my captain my king. I too have been pondering this question, and in my mind there can be only one ultimate outcome.
A few months later
All hail the High Warden of Gondor.
Epilogue: It ADORES Faramir.
I’m going to wear this on my head like a raccoon and show everyone
I love it

There are three major types of spiritual practice: first, reaching the spirit by rewarding the body, through ritual feasting, drug-taking and sex; second, reaching the spirit by denying the body, through fasting, cleansing and purification; and third, by abandoning the physical entirely and attempting to reach the numinous entirely via the life of the mind.
