Still genuinely baffles me every time I remember that the average person isn’t in some form of pain all the time.
Like..not even a tiny bit???
It’s actually crazy to me every time I remember that most people actually don’t experience pain outside of injuries.

giving birth sucks tbh. not only do you and the baby you’re birthing almost die, usually you shit yourself and often you tear your taint. then you have to push an organ out of your body (placenta) and if even a little of that remains in your body, you can hemorrhage to death or develop an infection that essentially rots your body from the inside out. even if you had a relatively “easy birth”, you bleed for weeks on end. even after that stops, your body and brain is changed for the rest of your life, the pregnancy leeched minerals from your bones, that can cause osteoporosis later. minor urinary incontinence is not uncommon, brain scans of people who gave birth show permanent changes in their brain, you’re never quite the same.
I say all of this not to say giving birth is disgusting but it is a harrowing and visceral experience. society downplays how fucking awful it is and makes it out to be a ~magical~ experience but it isn’t a magical transformative experience for everyone. it can be an extremely traumatic experience for someone who wanted to carry a pregnancy to term, much more so for someone who did not want to be pregnant in the first place or someone who knows their baby won’t survive the birth. anyway, abortion is a right. pregnancy and birth aren’t just inconvenient, it’s fucking awful.

Saw one of those posts where someone was like “Boba Fett was only 37 in Return of the Jedi?? He shoulda been at the clubbb” and like. I cannot stress enough how much he was AT the club. He was chilling in the corner but he was at the club. Max Rebo was there and everything

touch-starvation needs to be written with emphasis on the starving part. you are hungry to be touched. so hungry that even the very taste of it makes you nauseous. it has been long since anything has ever touched you, ever fed you - that your body has grown more used to that gnawing emptiness more than anything else. it's better for you to be held, to eat but it makes you sick to try. you know

#the minor amounts of daily pain im in don't phase me#i always have pain meds on my person. i think about if i'll be able to lay down if needed when i go out#i consider when i get dressed for the day what kind of day my back is having#its similar to me as when i tell people i get nosebleeds#oh ive had a nosebleed! many people say#and i will say i had three yesterday haha#and they look at me with a haunted look in their eyes like i have told them something horrible#worse is when they have never once had a nosebleed and i tell them my nose once bled for an hour before i considered going to the doctors#it does not make sense to them that my nose can just bleed and i am okay with it because it is part of my life#it does not make sense to them that I can be in pain and adapt to live with it#because things that are my everyday are things that would have them panicked and rushing to see a doctor

Not to be all pseudoscience and whatnot, but I stopped eating gluten and lactose this summer because I developed a painful intolerance to both, and for the first time in 11 years of having a period:

My cycle is "regular" ??????
#this is legit so baffling to me#like. after 11 years my body did not just suddenly decide to have normal periods#and really the only thing that's changed is my diet.#i stopped eating gluten and lactose in JUNE#and starting in August. i have been semi-typical#spilled sugar#gluten intolerance#lactose intolerance#periods#menstruation#menstrual cycle

You are made to live as a kind of house-pet for one week. You are well taken care of and loved, but you are unable to communicate to the person taking care of you that you are a person. What is your reaction?
Spin the wheel to find out which pet you will spend a week as.
