When the author describes a character’s appearance way too late and you have to quickly redesign the image you already have for them in your head:

This is why if you want people to know your character has long raven-black hair with red streaks and eyes like limpid tears, you need to make sure you say so in your first paragraph. Christ. Imagine someone thinking your character’s a prep.

Holy shit I’m dying.

That. That literally explains the opening paragraph of My Immortal I was making a joke but this person came out here with receipts holy hell

Got pulled over because he “saw someone flash their lights at me” and it made him “think something was going on”. After he ran my paperwork and did multiple full walk-arounds of my car, he decided everything was in order and I was free to go. I just wanted to get home from work.

Living in MD got pulled over when I pulled into my landlady’s [100%, rich, suburban] community and questioned what my purpose was there. “I live here” was not an acceptable answer and I ended up needing to call my landlady to talk to the officer and convince them that I really did live there, in her basement inlaw apartment, courtesy of her granddaughter. When he finally let me go he told me he “actually” pulled me over because he “thought [my] headlights were out” but on “second glance” they were just fine. Dunno how you can mistake headlights being on or off.

And I know I’ve told the story of when one of my elderly white neighbors called the police on me for training my dog in a public use field and how even the cop that showed up thought the call was stupid and racist.

My dad got pulled over when I was still in a carseat because they thought it was “suspicious” that a grown man would have such a young child with him on a school day. He was driving me back to school from a doctor’s appointment. They made him get our of the car, lean against it, and searched both him and the car because they “smelled something” while he did his best to keep me calm and tell me that it was going to be okay. I was too young to understand what happened at the time. I just remember he was furious the entire ride back to school, and he was still mad when I got off the bus that afternoon.

It really is just Like This, being black in this country.

Once got pulled over while biking on the sidewalk for not having my lights on. Despite that not being illegal. Turned out the dude just wanted to demonstrate to the little fuck he was training how to stop someone on a bike and write a ticket for them. I was let go afterwards. I also once got the cops called on me while waiting outside my house for the pizza I ordered. Cops told me someone reported “a suspicious individual lurking in the front yard of the property”. This neighborhood was extremely white.

Or the time a group of six or seven cop cars followed me (like literally did a u-turn to pursue me) at night with their lights off while I was biking home. One of them slammed on the breaks in front of the sidewalk path I was crossing the street to get to and I had to go offroad on a walkpath closed for construction to avoid him.

To cops, black people are animals to be trained, toyed with, tortured, and hunted. If you are doing nothing wrong, they’ll make up things to have a reason to fuck with you. If you for whatever reason look suspicious (not hard to do), they will take the worst case interpretation for your actions and find an excuse to take you in. And if you’re actually doing something illegal, no matter how minor, you’re open season.

can someone pls explain

Cops lie all the time about being contact poisoned with fentanyl, saying touching someone using/some contaminated surface RESULTED IN FOUR COPS OVERDOSING AND NEARLY DYING !!!11!!1 despite the fact that this is physically not possible. Primarily it is done to either hide the fact that cops are using, or to fearmonger about fentanyl and addicts. No this cop wasn’t using fentanyl, it was some junkie scum who used and then when the cop touched the desk it was strong enough to make him OD ! Also if fentanyl can make four pigs OD just by touching traces, what would happen if little Jimmy had touched it ? we have to kill junkies to protect our cops and your children !!

The joke is that theyve blown it so far out of proportion that even being faxed an image of fentanyl would cause the whole precinct to OD and keel over dead.

oh i see

thank you for explaining it to me :)

Can fentanyl be absorbed through your skin?

Can you overdose from fentanyl from having it touch your skin?

just wanted to add some resources to back this up cause i didn’t know it was bs until now

Reblog to make all the cops die from touching a fax machine

Adding to this, y’all realize that if fentanyl could kill you merely by existing in its presence a lot of healthcare workers and healthcare patients would be dead. Heck, I had to clean up a broken fentanyl vial at work the other day and even touched a droplet of the liquid by accident, and I’m still alive. This isn’t even looking at how stigmatizing drugs and drug users like this makes them less likely to seek help for their situation.

The Tolkien society is mad that someone used an image they have a copyright on because they bought the physical copy and God fuck the Tolkien society so hard.

Holy shit they made a Tolkien nft

non-fungible tolkien

Anyways. Here’s the full image. It cost me £0

Now we have the set. That’ll be £0 each.

“non-fungible tolkien”

I am dead

its fucking horrible that you can’t show a picture of an old man who passed away. This man has descendants. Can they not post a picture of THEIR loved one without being slammed by a company that simply spent 18 grand (which considering the worth of the franchise, its chum change for them) at an AUCTION?

Also remember that wen sueing DND for the term “hobbit.” They tried to claim that the concept of DRAGONS and ELVES were their creations. Which is fucking stupid.

Can we please murder all corperate overseers

both elves and dragon exist in old norse mythology, so I say that as a representative of the scandinavian peoples. We go to war against these fuckwits to make it available to all!

panic-attack-imminent:

Critiquing social/societal norms and systems — why they exist, what role we play in them, and if things could be different or better — does not mean that we forget material reality as it currently exists. Conflating what should be and what is is unhelpful at best and damaging at worst as is assuming that’s what we’re doing when we speak about, for example, capitalism, patriarchal gender roles, etc.

When we say arbitrary socially-constructed Western beauty standards for women, such as total body hair removal, is perhaps detrimental, not just to cis women but trans, non-binary, and GNC people as well, we are not saying that therefore gender-affirming care like laser hair removal for transfeminine people should be withheld from those who benefit from and need it. Because, as I’ve said, we don’t forget about our material reality and we realize that women, cis and trans alike, have to exist and survive in the society that is currently in place.

Recognizing that adhering to strict beauty standards prevents the dismantling of patriarchal gender norms ≠ being against individual bodily autonomy or gender-affirming care particularly for trans people.

Being critical about how we exist in society is never a bad thing and is indeed the first very small step necessary to enact actual change if such a thing is possible.

common myths about migraines (AKA if you get headaches regularly, please seek treatment for migraines)

“i don’t have migraines because while i get them several times a week, it’s only when i am hungry or dehydrated.”

those are probably migraines. thirst, hunger, sleep disturbances, or any disruption to routine are common migraine triggers.

“my headaches are specifically barometric related, i get them when the weather/altitude changes.”

those are probably migraines. barometric pressure is a common migraine trigger.

“i get headaches all the time but ibuprofen gets rid of them so they can’t be migraines.”

that’s not true. ibuprofen works great at relieving migraine pain for many people.

“my consistent headaches are tension headaches. i feel them originate in my neck/shoulders.”

those are probably migraines. muscle tension is a common migraine trigger.

if you are regularly getting headaches (once a week or more), you are likely getting migraines. in fact, a good rule of thumb if you’re consistently getting headaches is to treat them as migraines until you can rule out migraines. that’s how common “chronic headache = migraine” actually is.

migraines are a neurological disorder wherein pain is one symptom. pain is often the MAIN symptom, and the most noticeable symptom, which can make diagnosis tricky. other symptoms of migraine include:

• fatigue
• nausea/vomiting
• digestive issues
• visual disturbances (auras)
• sensitivity to light and/or sound
• mood changes
• brain fog/cognitive changes
• ringing in the ears
• dizziness/vertigo
• numbness/weakness on one side of the body

this list is NOT complete, but is a starting point. i really like the comparison to a hangover. if you generally feel hungover when you get a headache (without having consumed alcohol), that’s a classic migraine presentation.

so many people suffer from migraine and don’t even know it, so they aren’t able to advocate for themselves to get treatment. there are great new migraine treatments on the market! if you’re able, please seek treatment for your migraines. a better quality of life is possible.

here’s some more myths! brought to you by the most frequent comments i get on my migraine posts.

“but migraines are extremely painful/debilitating and i can push through my pain.”

migraines certainly can be debilitatingly painful. the pain can also be mild/easily treatable. it depends on the person and it depends on the day. regardless, your ability to live with chronic pain does not mean your pain isn’t a problem!

“my headaches always have a direct cause/trigger so they can’t be treated/they’re my fault.”

wrong! migraine is a sensory disorder in many respects. most/all migraines are triggered by something. avoiding triggers is good but isn’t the whole story, and migraines with triggers can be treated effectively!

“i feel pain in (x) area of my head so it’s not a migraine.”

migraines can hurt in a specific area of the head/one half of a person’s head. but this is not universally true for every person. please forget every silly infographic you’ve ever seen about areas of the head equaling different kinds of headaches. that’s just literally false.

Seems like this could be useful to some of y'all

Listen, I know we dunk all the time on people who think they can flawlessly tell who’s trans, but as a doctor looking at bodies is my job. I can tell who has heart failure or liver failure from looking at them. I can identify Parkinson’s from a shuffling walk or hip arthritis from an antalgic gait. I cannot, for the life of me, clock every trans person visually.

You know how I know this? When I started at this job, my new boss told me that a member of the staff transitioned a few years back and everyone did some learning and was supportive (or else). He told me this bc he knows gender care is one of my special clinical interests, right up there with psych and migraines. And when I met my new team I said to myself, ah! There is the trans person. I felt SO bad for her being seated next to the vaguely fascist Republican Ortho guy. I told her repeatedly about how excited I was to have the opportunity to care for trans patients.

Turns out not only is she cis, SHE’S a Republican. I made her uncomfortable! I was like cisgender? With THAT hair???? GIRL YOU ARE SIGNALING THINGS! There are SIGNIFIERS!!!!

So yeah no. People can’t “just tell.” I ought to have gaydar and I ruined an entire work dinner for that woman.

#op was the republic ortho guy trans

Sadly no, he is just your garden variety orthopod who MUST believe that he DESERVES the insane amount of money Ortho bros earn.

what I’m hearing is that that ortho isn’t trans YET

I mean, or “that I know of,” clearly I can’t clock for shit! And he is on the short side!

McDonald’s giving away free fries if you use their mobile app and then updating the terms and conditions to say if you use this app you waive your right to trial in any class action lawsuits and have to do mandatory arbitration is INSANE

because i haven’t seen this in the notes yet: it is also VERY SIGNIFICANT that they are doing this as more and more people are learning about BDS. mcdonalds is one of the massive companies that palestiniens have been calling for boycotts of for years. it’d be a very convenient time for them if you ignored the ongoing call to boycott.

one of the things that makes autism a disability (and why some of us choose to label it as such rather than an “alternate neurotype”) is the stress. 

part of autism is just being incredibly stressed. overstimulation? stress. holding a conversation? stress. something happening to our schedule? stress. people talk about how often autism is recognized and diagnosed via our stress responses (like meltdowns) because it is just so common to see autistic people stressed because of lack of accommodations to how our brains work.

and this matters because stress kills. stress causes a lot of health issues, or it can trigger pre-existing ones by making certain chronic conditions flare up. i once had a psychiatrist very unhelpfully tell me i “just need to manage my stress” when the stress i was describing was things i could not avoid in neurotypical society and can’t “just get over”. i can do “self care” all i like but i cannot at the very base level change the way my brain inputs information and reacts accordingly.

i only learned this year that loud noises aren’t physically painful for other people. i have lived 34 years in a world in which my friends and family regularly physically hurt me at random just by shouting, and i thought everyone else just thought i was kind of a wimp for not dealing with the pain as well as they did.

like. loud noises physically hurt. it’s like a static shock from my ears to my spine that doesn’t stop until the volume goes back down. i thought we all agreed that ‘that’s too loud!’ and covering our ears meant ‘ouch!’. turns out i’ve been dealing with a stressor almost no one else has, my whole life, alone.

autistic people have to keep functioning through debilitating levels of stress that no one else in their life acknowledges or helps them with. it’s no wonder that their most visible ‘tells’ are breakdowns.

Movies where the lead actor did their own stunts are always either “the director forced them to stand in freezing water for fourteen hours a day while periodically throwing rocks at their head for the sake of ‘authenticity’ and they got PTSD and almost died” or “they insisted over the explicit objections of the production’s insurance company that they be set on fire for real because it would 'help [them] understand the character’s motivation’” – there’s absolutely no middle ground.

Though sometimes an actor goes from one to the other in the course of their career. Jackie Chan was firmly in the former camp when he started, then became the latter by the time of the Rush Hour movies.

But even then, no middle ground.

Jackie Chan’s a complicated case because he was directing some of this own films as early as 1980, putting him in the position of simultaneously being the unhinged director torturing his lead actor and the lead actor being tortured.
