sandraheretic.bsky.social @sandraheretic.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Yes! Physical exertion is the least costly (it’s damn expensive) of ME energy use. Cognitive exertion is worse; emotional exertion is exponentially more so, at least IME.

sandraheretic.bsky.social @sandraheretic.bsky.social · 16/01/2026I like Scooby Doo because its entire story is that monsters are always human and even children (people with little power) unmask them and ultimately take them down. It’s simplistic and ignores the real physical dangers of monsters but the principle is true. 010
