#I just have trouble even remembering to take a multivitamin; and I also feel like I'm almost coping ok

[medicinemane]

Mhh... this isn't like meant as... some deep criticism of this or that, it's really just talking about my personal feelings on something. It's not saying what other people should be doing

For me though, I actually really don't like to be asked my pronouns. Not in a "you should just know" kinda way, but in a I'd literally prefer no one ask and get it wrong than ask me. Just kinda not something I feel like talking about... just kinda... don't like giving out information about myself and I'd rather people assume whatever they want

Again, nothing deeper here. Just saying that for me the time someone asked me my pronouns I just kinda dodged it, and when they asked again it was uncomfortable but gave em an answer. Thinking on this cause I saw a video where next to someone's name it listened their pronouns and it's like... cor blimey I wouldn't care for that, frankly even giving out my name to people is a bit much, innit?

More and more I just don't like giving away information on me. It's like some kinda fae mindset of like "not giving your name" or something, except for no concrete reason, just don't like mhh...

Maybe it's linked to how descriptivist I am. Like the number of labels I wear are next to zero. Don't really feel like identifying with this or that movement, rather let my actions and ideas stand on their own instead of under a banner, and so maybe it's like that with the pronouns

Like you figure it out mate, right or wrong I prefer that to saying

[ed-recovery-affirmations]

Heyyy! I am in need of some advice. So um I've been recovering since January and had my ups and downs but was doing fairly well in the grand scheme of things (no longer counting calories, began to be able to eat food made by someone else, not weighing myself nor measuring myself anymore, though I still habitually body-checked myself and had trouble drinking anything containing sugar).

But I got new medicine for ADHD about two weeks ago and one of the side-effects I'm having is complete loss of appetite and and lowered sense of hunger signals, along with stomach pain. I already messaged my psychiatrist about it, but she usually answers in 7 working days and until I hear back from her I should likely keep taking the medication. The problem is that the appetite loss has managed to trigger my eating disorder. Not only is it very hard for me to eat because everything tastes like shit and I feel like puking whenever I force myself to eat, I'm beginning to see food as disgusting and bad. I feel guilty whenever I eat anything other than a salad, it's getting hard not to weigh myself, and my head is telling me that this loss of appetite is a great opportunity to lose some weight.

I don't know how to manage until I hear back from my psychiatrist. She also doesn't know about my eating disorder, and I would prefer not to tell her, because she sees eating disorders as something only women have, and even though I've been on testosterone for 2 years now, she still doesn't believe me that I'm trans, and telling her that I have an ED would only convince her that I'm actually a woman (and unfortunately going to a different psychiatrist is not an option).

Well, first of all, congratulations on meeting all those milestones! That's a HUGE deal, especially when it sounds like you're doing it with really subpar supports in your life. Your achievements are significant!

I absolutely feel you in regards to the ADHD medication, I've been on multiple ADHD meds that absolutely screwed up my appetite and stomach in general. Everyone thinks an ADHD diagnosis is, like, a sort of weed card for their favorite recreational drugs, but when you HAVE to take them, those drugs are ROUGH.

The first thing to do, I think, is try to take a step back and address the disordered-eating thoughts. Think about all the care you invested in yourself when you started making progress. Ask yourself if you want to lose that progress and take your ED along on the healing and self-discovery journey you're on. It can be very hard to separate your symptoms from your ED, but just keep reminding yourself that that's exactly what they are - symptoms. Your lack of hunger or your stomach pain don't make the food "bad." You're having symptoms.

Perhaps you could try setting alarms reminding you to eat. You could also utilize other cues to engage intuitive eating. For example, are you shaky, tired, irritable, feeling "off"? Try using that feeling as a cue to have some food. Prep things that are easy to consume, since food consumption has become such a chore. Fruit/yogurt smoothies might be a good bet, since it's easy to get all your nutrients in and all you have to do is drink.

You mentioned that the food tastes bad to you recently. Is it a side effect of the med? That would be worth mentioning to the psychiatrist, and asking about trying a different med if your body doesn't adjust soon. But if you need to in the meantime, just eat whatever foods are tasting good to you right now, if any do. Having food that tastes good is a massive step in repairing your relationship with food and eating. Perhaps add a multivitamin to your diet if you haven't already, though, just so that your nutritional needs will be supplemented. Remember to reward yourself for managing to get down food if it tastes off. Tell yourself you did a good job sustaining your health through hard symptoms. Take the time to give yourself some appreciation!

When you do work with your psychiatrist, try communicating in terms that the psychiatrist will prioritize while subtly using gender-affirming language for yourself. For example, instead of saying that your ED is triggered, you could explain that the stomach pain is preventing you from eating enough, or that the hunger cues make it hard for you to know how much to eat to keep yourself strong. Definitely tell her about the bad taste, too. Perhaps you could ask to switch meds or go to a lower dose, if you feel that's an option for you?I'm sorry you have to do this level of work just to get the psychiatrist to work with you, but do what you need to do.

I recently had my own experience with an ADHD med adjustment doing this to me. I spent a whole day accomplishing so many tasks while completely forgetting to eat. By the end of the day I was still going strong when I realized I felt so bad, something was wrong in my nervous system, and I felt so anxious and shaky and nothing seemed to fix it. I couldn't understand it. It took forever for me to get around to making myself a snack, but when I finally ate it, my symptoms were gone within seconds. I looked back over the course of my day and went "Ohhhhh...." These meds are no joke!

[scowlowl]

Hi c: I remember a post, I think it was from you, about long covid and getting it? Was that you? A friend of mine is struggling and I was wondering if you had any advice about what she can do :< Thank you!!

Oh no, I hope your friend feels better soon! That might have been me, I think I posted about it here a few times and there have definitely been twitter threads.

Standard disclaimer stuff: I am not a doctor. What I found helped me might not help someone else. Long covid is kind of fucked up to deal with because it seems to hit everyone in different ways, in different areas, and months later something that wasn't a problem before can suddenly become one. The long haul groups talk about it as something that feels like it moves around the body, like a total shit gremlin.

The thing that helped me the most initially was joining the facebook groups with other people figuring shit out. This was back April/May for me but they're still very active and full of people sharing resources.

Survivor Corps is I think the big one and they've been the ones reaching out to media and doctors to try to gain some recognition with the medical community initially (as far as I know, all kind of a blur tbh). There's also a long covid group here, and if your friend searches for like, long covid + the country they're in there are usually more local/regional ones for resources closer to home too.

Because we don't really know what specific mechanism is triggering a lot of the long covid stuff yet, most of us are just treating symptoms. Some people have been diagnosed with mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS) and I don't know diddly squat about that but it might be something for your friend to look into. My whole thing has been inflammation and my immune system basically attacking itself because immune systems are both very complex and compellingly fucking stupid. Not to victim blame the immune system or anything.

What helped me depended on what was going wrong at the time, obv, but it means it's a long list.

This is just going to be a brain dump, sorry.

- I never had pneumonia. Mine started in my throat, probably damaged my vocal chords, but never turned into pneumonia. I still had shortness of breath, pressure in my chest, and my oxygen levels dropped. I could breathe but with great difficulty and described it to the EMTs as "breathing is like work." It took all of my energy and focus to breathe in enough. If you are that this point, ever, like, literally fucking ever, call an ambulance.

- Tylenol for a fever. 

- Blood thinners if necessary, I never had any but we know now that a lot of problems are blood clot-related. Tbqh my blood is more thin now than anything but I always had anemia and some sort of “your blood is too small actually?” problem and we don’t know why. I just bleed a lot and bruise easier now. 

- If they try to tell you it's anxiety or in your head or you're not that bed, tell them to go fuck themselves and go to the hospital. Get tested if you can. A lot of the problems long haulers ran into was that we got sick before tests were available, or we were talked into staying home by the emergency workers, and we never got tested. This opens the doors for doctors to tell you it's all in your head, psychological, anxiety, allergies, etc. Just. Go when you first feel sick if at all possible. Get tested before it turns into long covid. 

- I was not sure in the beginning what "shortness of breath" or "pressure" actually felt like, and it made me delay calling for an ambulance for a few days as well. For me, it felt like there was an elastic band of pressure around my lungs. I couldn't fully inhale. My diaphragm was fucked in ways I still don't understand. My lungs also felt heavy, like there was a weight on them or like my lungs themselves were too stiff to inhale. That all counts as pressure/tightness/shortness of breath. So does air hunger, or feeling like you want to be swallowing air.

- I know I'm being super obvious but seriously shortly before I got sicker, I hit up twitter to ask what "pressure" was supposed to feel like because I couldn't tell if what I had "counted."

- Breathing: lying on my stomach with my chest propped up by pillow, in bed helped. So did  pursed lip breathing: here.

- I was prescribed salbutamol initially, which did help with the worst of the wheezing and opened up some of my lungs so I could breathe easier. When I went to the ER again a couple months later, they gave me like 5x the usual dose and sent me home.

- I'm also taking Flovent/fluticasone twice a day for asthma maintenance.

- Histamines are a problem for a lot of people. Some develop a histamine intolerance, which can be helped by eating a low histamine diet.

- Antihistamines helped me the most. I was taking Allegra-D daily. Pepcid AC also helps, because it targets a different kind of histamine. There was such a run on Pepcid when this started that it was actually impossible to find in my area and I had to order some online. 

- I was recently prescribed Singulair and it has been life-changing this past week or so. As far as I know it's not really an antihistamine but blocks/inhibits a particular receptor involved in inflammation that comes into play when allergies do.

- Electrolytes. I don't know why, but my electrolytes are permanently fucked and too low now. If I don't go through like a litre of gatorade a day (or whatever, pick your brand of supplements), I am even more tired and brain foggy than usual. Helps a lot.

- Inflammation is a major problem all around. Sometimes I go for the naproxen or advil and it will help any really major acute flare-up now (like, I can feel when my gallbladder is getting inflamed and about to spasm and I can cut it off sort of), but mostly it's also daily maintenance. I take cucurmin and black pepper daily.

- Other supplements: vitamins A & D, a multivitamin, NAC.  

- CBD oil. This worked wonders for me for a lot of the side-effects of covid, costochondritis and shingles pain especially.

- Diet. I mentioned the low histamine one above. Other people have had some success with a low inflammation diet. Some folks also have so many GI problems that they basically ate chicken and rice and slowly reintroduced foods to see what would trigger something. I appear to get super fucked by nightshades now, e.g. Alcohol is an absolute no. I had to cut caffeine for months because of my heart. (No caffeine/alcohol/red meat was my doctor's first and best advice for heart stuff at the time.)

- Speaking of the heart stuff, if your friend is dealing with that: electrolytes again. I have pedialyte freezies that I would suck on whenever heart palpitations started and it helped calm it down some. My heart was so, so fucked for months that whenever I ate or stood up or sat down it would hit like 140bpm and I had to spend an hour moving as little as possible or I'd just about pass out. There are a LOT of long-haulers now dealing with POTS and I can't really speak to what helps that in particular but if your heart is messing up at all: call a doctor. I still don't know how damaged my heart is from all of this because doctors and wait lists, etc. Get a jump on that.

- Insomnia was absolutely the worst I’ve ever had and I’ve had lifelong, “I’m awake for three days wee” insomnia. The Singulair knocks me right out at night, so that's a bonus, but there has not been a single night since getting sick where I didn't have to take something to help me sleep. I was on Zopiclone before getting sick, at least, but seriously talk to someone about insomnia if necessary. The sleep deprivation alone was making so many things worse.

- Brain fog? Brain fog. I don't have any or many answers for this. My short-term memory is wrecked and usually I'll remember something 2 weeks later, so I live my life on a 2-week lag now.

- Related to brain fog, fatigue. Don't fuck with it. Do not. Chronic Fatigue and Myalgic encephalomyelitis are both brought up often with long covid. I am dealing with it but don't know what to say about it yet because I haven't had a single doctor give a shit thus far. I've spoken to a relative who's an occupational therapist about it and her most helpful advice was about "energy envelopes," which is basically spoon theory. If you feel tired: stop. If you don't, or if you try to push through, we relapse hard and fast and you can pay for one day of walking 10 minutes too long with weeks of being stuck in bed. It's miserable. It will take longer to get back to normal. Some of us can exercise and feel amazing after; others are exercise intolerant and it wrecks them. (I feel best after like, 10 minutes of walking and sunshine right now, which is after months and months of being bedridden.)

- Treat mental exertion the same as physical. Doctors told me to drink Gatorade after mental work because it's still work, and it has helped a lot for whatever reason. It also helps to work on one thing at a time, take a break, switch gears, take a break, etc. I can't multitask anymore anyway.

- Eliminate whatever stressors you can. Stress will make everything worse. 

- It comes and goes. Every relapse was a bit shorter and a bit easier for me, so that now when I fuck up it's like 2-3 days instead of weeks, but it's a rollercoaster.

- It can be random as hell. For about two months my gallbladder just decided to up and die, basically, and we were talking about having it removed. And then it was fine. Hasn't bugged me again lately. I know I said it's symptom management, but it's also like... symptom chasing and trying to figure out what's happening every time the sun rises. This is also exhausting. Everything is exhausting.

- Brain shit. Some of us have serious trouble reading. Sentences swim together. Letters wouldn't turn into words. I took this as a Challenge and started reading children's books and then Animorphs again, like... slowly, as much as I could do without pushing it, and it's still not perfect or great but it was an okay place to start. Honestly the hardest part was the embarrassment and going from a PhD program to reading kids books, but. Do what you have to. Do what you can.

- Sticky notes and labelling things around the house so I could see them when I needed them. I am not fucking around when I say brain fog. I can open the fridge, know I have milk, know it is in the door, and literally not see it to find it. I will put the cream in the dishwasher. I will spin in circles in the kitchen remembering and forgetting and remembering why I’m there again. Sticky notes. Also: journals, index cards, write literally everything down if you need to remember something. Put it somewhere obvious. I like writing on the bathroom mirror for the important shit. (Don’t use lipstick.) 

- Unsurprisingly, a lot of us are struggling with anxiety and depression. Don't let doctors get it backward: it's not anxiety making us sick, it's being sick and ignored and fighting to be helped that's making our mental health worse. So many doctors tell us it's all in our head. I did not move across the country because I was too sick to take care of myself because of ~allergies~ or ~anxiety.~ Fuck off.

- So, so many people report that they relapse whenever they menstruate so if your friend is in that group, they might want to prepare to feel like fucking trash every 4 weeks no matter what they do. I don’t have any advice on this one, I’m sorry. There are a lot of people discussing it in the FB groups, though, and those are searchable for symptoms. 

- So... a tl;dr list of things that might help: anti-inflammatory diets, anti-histamine diets, pepcid AC, allegra or other allergy meds, vitamin A/D/E, multivitamins, electrolytes and gatorade, albuterol, fluticasone, zopiclone (or anything that helps with sleep), CBD oil, singulair, anti-nausea meds (buscopan), muscle relaxants (spasming gallbladder). Rest, so much rest, do not fuck with The Rest if you can help it. I also encourage just getting high and edibles as much as you can because it sure helped me chill out big time and I think was a big factor in my recovery, at least as far as helping me calm down and helping my heart were concerned.

- The actual most helpful part outside of what to take or do was other people. Friends would go out and get me things when I could not, including like, cat food deliveries and all. I had co-workers ready to step in to take over my work on days I could not. I had friends calling doctors because I was too tired to fight them or self-advocate. I don't think it's an exaggeration to say they helped save my idiot life this year. Literally. It's a lot to ask of anyone but it's also that level of support that some of us need, and there shouldn't be any shame in it. (I still feel bad about it anyway but what are you gonna do.)

Depending on where you live, some places are setting up long-haul covid clinics to help people. Reports are mixed: some demand you had a positive test even if you were sick before tests were available. Some people are getting a lot of help regardless. Some are being sent home and told not to come back anyway. It’s kind of a gamble right now but either way, there’s at least some medical recognition making headway now so my fingers are crossed.

Anyway you basically sound like a good bean and your friend is lucky to have you asking around. I have absolutely forgotten something at some point in here because, well, brain fog and no memory, but if you have any questions or want something clarified please just ask. Stay safe!

Early in my day today, I was still generally feeling like shit—until I took particular notice of how my joints were hurting a bit, which I’ve been learning to use as a reminder to take a vitamin D+calcium supplement (something Mom takes, but it’s an over-the-counter thing anyway so it’s fine for me to take too). With supplements in mind, I was further reminded that multivitamins are a thing, so I took one of those too. My stomach was not at all happy about taking both of these things within a relatively short time period (even with food), but I’ve ended up feeling a lot better. My mental acuity is up, and I’m hurting less.

Also, I’ve been a bit gassy, making me wonder how taking a multivitamin may have led to that. My guess is that the chemical reactions that go on with my body making use of these vitamins and minerals happens to create some gaseous waste/byproduct. I’ve just never thought or heard of multivitamins leading to any amount of gassy-ness, but I haven’t been experiencing much of that until today. (To be clear, this isn’t the uncomfortable sort of intestinal gas that troubles me occasionally: just an unusual amount of toots and burps.)

I wonder if I could do better about listening to my body when it comes to taking these supplements when I need to, but, like, sooner. Once I remembered that these were things I could take, my body desperately let me know that it needed them. It might be a bit complicated with the multivitamin, since, most of the time, my body only really needs some of the vitamins/minerals, while the rest would be excessive and undesirable. At the least, the separate D+calcium supplement should be easier for my body to identify as something that I need.

Regarding that joint pain I mentioned, it’s a thing I’ve been dealing with more recently. Notably, my right knee has had a bit of pain occasionally for no discernible reason. Part of my issues may stem from a general lack of exercise, but I think I’m also vulnerable to chronic joint pain/issues due to being hyper-mobile—like, I can over-rotate my fingers and elbows in ways that make them seem a tad broken. I’ve at least seen brief mentions of that sort of thing come across my dash: from reblogs concerning certain types of chronic pain.

Despite feeling better, I wasn’t in any rush to be productive, which was nice. Instead, I spent my time reading a Webtoon that a friend recommended, Not So Shoujo Love Story (which has some nice things going on about it that I might write more about in the future), and repeatedly singing along to a song I’ve been obsessed with, “A Good Song Never Dies” by Saint Motel.

DOTW 9 - Start

With Hanji and Moblit at work so much, Eren had noticed a few things. Moblit was almost always exhausted when he came home, while Hanji almost always had way too much energy. Hanji was horrible at cooking and cleaning, so when he was home, Moblit was the one who did all the work. It didn't sit right with Eren. He was sitting at their dining table eating their food. He used their water and power and slept in their spare bed... and he paid nothing for all it all. He didn't like it. He wasn't used to it... but with the cast on his ankle, he couldn't find a new job. Without a job, he couldn't pay for his share of everything. So he started helping around the house. Just small jobs at first. Like doing his own washing, or stacking and emptying the dishwasher. When neither of the pair said anything, he took it to mean he was doing the right thing. With the chores being done, Moblit had more time to rest, and more time to be with Hanji, and that made him proud. Every morning he'd wait until the house was empty to start. He'd vacuum and mop, before cleaning through the kitchen and tackling the washing. He even managed to get the curtains down and wash them, surprised to find they were actually white and not the coffee colour they'd been when they'd gone into the machine. Sure, it was hard as fuck to manage the stairs with a full basket of washing and annoying cast on his leg, but it was worth it. The house felt bigger and brighter, it smelt like lemons and oranges, instead of the empty void left from scent cancelling spray, and he most of all, it kept his mind busy. Almost daily he'd text Marco, his friend wanted to catch up, but even with all the work he was doing around the house, Eren didn't feel like he had the right to invite Marco over. He still felt at times he was being too pushy and clingy. His anxieties getting the better of him, especially when he didn't hear from Levi again after they went shopping. He also didn't want to get too attached to the place, because Zeke had promised he'd return... not that his heart was listening to his head. In the apartment, he couldn't play his music too loud, but if Moblit wasn't on split shifts, he could have it as loud as he wanted. No one was there to judge his awful singing. No neighbours were banging on the door because he was being too loud. He'd missed music so much. It kept the demon at bay, and kept the memories from suffocating him. So he kept going.

Waking up later than normal, he went about his morning routine in the bathroom, before getting dressed to face the day. A small amount of concealer hiding the black bags that marred his face. He'd had nightmares the night before, and how he hadn't woken Hanji and Moblit, he had no idea. Grabbing his crutches, he headed downstairs.

Moblit was cooking breakfast as his limped in, while Hanji was sitting at the dining table. It was rare for them both to be home in the morning, and his stupid anxieties rose their ugly head

"Good morning, Eren. Come take a seat"

He swallowed hard. His first instinct was to run. It didn't matter that Hanji was smiling, he was sure she was about to yell at him. Limping over to the solid jarrah dining table, he slid into the seat closest to Hanji. He'd fucked up. He'd fucked up and now they were getting rid of him...

"Eren, are you alright?"

Nodding quickly, he pushed a fake smile to his lips

"Just a little sleepy"

"Aren't we all? Anyway, Moblit and I wanted to have a little chat with you"

Here it came. She was going to yell... he'd messed up. He shouldn't have cleaned the house. He should have stayed in his room, where he couldn't make trouble

"Moblit and I have been talking..."

Cutting her off, the words fell out before he could stop them

"I'm sorry. I know I shouldn't have cleaned without asking. You've got every right to be mad... I mean... it's your house and I'm stranger... I didn't mean to make trouble for you"

"Huh. What? No. We're not mad"

"Y-you're not mad?"

"Hell no. If you want to clean the house, go for it. No. That's not what we wanted to talk about"

"It's not?"

"Moblit, are you mad Eren's been cleaning our house?"

Moblit snorted

"Nope. It's never looked or smelt better, and it's been a huge help having another set of hands around here"

"You're not going to yell?"

Hanji placed her hand on his

"Nope. We actually wanted to know if you'd like to make it an actual job. Not like a real job, but more like for pocket money?"

"What? Why?"

"Because you're cleaning our house, silly"

"You're letting me stay here... I can't pay rent or anything... I don't need payment"

"Sweetie, we didn't take you in so you'd do stuff for us. And we thought you might feel a little bit more independent if you had some income coming in"

"But you guys are the ones paying for everything. It's not cheap living here, even in the suburbs and there's food, water, power, rates, gas... then you've both got cars on top of the house costs"

"Trust me. Between Moblit's job and mine, we're fine. And besides, we want you to feel like this is your home too"

"But it's not"

"You're practically family. Seriously. If you want to have people come over, that's fine"

"People?"

"Like Marco, or Levi"

"Levi doesn't like me, and Marco... I didn't want to invite him over without your permission"

"Marco is your friend. It must get pretty lonely here"

"It's alright..."

"Oh. Then maybe I shouldn't have invited him over?"

"You... invited him over?"

"Yep. He's coming to dinner, and so is Levi"

He wasn't prepared to see either of them...

"I thought we could make it a celebration"

"What are we celebrating?"

Coming over from the kitchen, Moblit placed a plate stacked with pancakes down in front of him, and another plate down in front of Hanji

"Hanji, what have I told you about starting at the beginning?"

"I was getting there"

"Oh, by all means, continue then"

"I'm trying to"

Moblit kissed Hanji's cheek fondly, returning to the kitchen to grab his own plate, while Eren stared down at his pancakes. He really wasn't used to having someone make him a breakfast like this

"You've got a scan booked at 11, if everything looks good, we can go ahead and take that cast off. I'm not making any promises, but the last scan looked really good"

His last scan had been almost right after his injection induced heat, and he couldn't even remember it. Hanji had apologised over and over for it all, and for how the doctor had treated him. She'd also put him on multivitamins designed for omegas, and wanted him to work on gaining weight. He'd always tried to keep his figure in check, so the thought of gaining weight didn't sit well with him. He'd rather be too thin. He wanted to get back into dancing once the cast came off, and most alphas preferred a thin omega. Zeke had preferred a thin omega... the idea that his brother wouldn't recognise him if he gained weight scared him more than he'd admit

"When I can start dancing again?"

"Not just yet. We'll need to work on building strength back up in your ankle. I know it's not what you want to hear, but rushing into dancing again could lead to further complications. You could do permanent damage and never be able to dance again"

"So..."

"So, we'll take it slow with rehab and walking. I know you have a yoga mat, gently yoga stretches are alright"

"I... don't know that much yoga. Most of the stuff I do is stretching"

"As long as you're not running around in 6-inch platforms, things should be ok"

Moblit took the seat across from him with a smile and a nod

"You should eat before they get even colder"

"Oh... right. I think I'm in shock"

Hanji choked on her mouthful of pancake. Draining half her mug of coffee, she sucked down a deep breath while still coughing

"Sorry! It's just sometimes you say the cutest things"

He wasn't trying to be cute

"It's fine. I was thinking you could help with tonight's menu?"

"Zeke taught me how to cook... I don't know much... but I can generally follow a recipe"

"You're doing better than Hanji. She tried to prepare this romantic dinner one time, but forgot she'd put the roast in the oven and ordered takeaway instead. We were woken in the middle of the night by the fire alarm"

"She... no way"

"It wasn't my fault. I came off my shift after spending three days at the hospital... I shouldn't have been adulting"

"After that, its became a ritual to check the oven every night"

"I can see why"

"Eren, you're supposed to be on my side"

"You shouldn't have been in the kitchen"

Hanji stared at him, failing to hide her smile

"Ok. Maybe not. But Moblit didn't marry me for my cooking prowess"

"No, I had to marry you because no one else would"

"That and I make stupidly happy"

"Yeah. You really do"

Struck with the unexpected prangs of jealousy, Eren didn't know how he was supposed to act. He didn't understand relationships. He only understood behaving and doing what he was told. Zeke would kiss and hug him, let him sit in his lap as he fed him, but he was his brother so none of that counted. Stabbing his fork into the tower of pancakes, he blocked Hanji and Moblit from his mind.

The trip to hospital was kind of over before it really set in. His anxieties gripping his mind and not letting go. Hanji tried to soothe him, only for it to all go over his head. He couldn't concentrate. All he could think about was the scan. He was sure they were going to tell him he'd have wear the cast for the rest of his life and that he'd never dance again. So when he was told his scans were good, and that he getting itchy piece of shit cast off... He wanted to scream with happiness. After weeks of confined itchy smelly torture, his ankle was free! He wasn't free from crutches just yet, but fuck it felt good to have the cast off. Ruffling his hair, Hanji was all smiles as they walked back to her car. His ankle was a bit stiff, but it was barely noticed

"How does it feel?"

"Amazing. I'm not going to miss it"

"Don't forget you need to take it slow"

"I know... I can't wait to wash my foot"

"Let's get you home then. We need to decide on tonight's menu"

"Wasn't Moblit doing that?"

"He's gone to get groceries, and we've got like a hundred cookbooks at home that we've never used. We can get as creative as we want"

"I want to take a bath first... if that's ok?"

"You don't need to ask. It's your home too, remember"

Home. He couldn't really think of it like that. Home was wherever Zeke was... but Zeke had told him to stay with Hanji and Moblit... so maybe it really was "home", just for now?

"Thank you"

*

The bath was magical. He'd scrubbed and scratched at his ankle until he was sure all itchy and flaky skin was gone. He had new scarring from the operation, the scars barely making a dent in comparison to his old ones. Running his fingers around the two parallel scars of his past, his whole body shook. No matter what happened, they'd always be there. He'd never be able to escape the tight feeling of the invisible hold they held on his chest. If he ever found an alpha he truly wished go to be intimate with, they'd run once they knew the story behind them. Allowing himself a few moments to compose himself again, he wiped at his face. He wasn't in that place anymore. The people who'd do this to him were gone. He had a new "home" here... and despite how loud and invasive Hanji was, she'd never do what they did to him. He couldn't help being wary around Moblit. The male alpha had done nothing wrong, he'd even gone out of his way to try and make him feel welcome, but Eren couldn't control his fears and anxieties. He couldn't help the sick feeling that sometimes formed in the base of his gut. Not that Moblit ever said anything about it. About the distance or the timid looks. The man took it in his stride, probably because Hanji would have told him he was damaged. The love the pair of them shared... he didn't understand. Not when he'd witnessed such violence between alphas... not when he'd witnessed what his father did to his mother... but maybe... maybe this was what he needed? A place where they really didn't care he was an omega?

I don’t remember what I did in 2021. Well, I guess I moved here. I learned the note names on the piano, though I could still stand to memorize them better. I learned some music theory concepts, even if I can’t put them into practice. I know intervals are a thing.  I think I’m more confident making phone calls and figuring official stuff out.  I think it was this year I got that binder and those blouses. Yay for fashion! ...unless the blouses were last year. No... they were this year right? Thinking of stuff that happened this year is hard. What was this year? Last year? Three years ago? How do I know?  Did I finish any stories this year, or was that all last year?  I started taking a multivitamin. Hopefully I’ll keep that up.

My misophonia has gotten a lot better, I think.  I entered a bunch of dtiyses I also learned that little backing thing on the piano, though I can’t really play the right hand part because I have trouble folding my thumb under and hitting and skipping the right notes.  Just by focusing on it a bit, I made a lot of progress in music theory, but it doesn’t feel like much when it comes to actually playing piano. I hope I learn the chords to some songs and some accompaniment patterns in the coming year.

Worm Liveblog #48

UPDATE 48: The Heart of the Team

Last time Kid Win’s turn to have an interlude had arrived. He was sent to recruit a new tinker for the Wards, but he found out the new guy may have been compromised by one of the main villainous groups in Brockton Bay. Let’s continue. Which Ward will have an interlude this time?

The chapter opens with Flechette, Parian and Vista, so I suppose it’ll be Vista. Neat! I like Vista, so I think I’ll enjoy this.

Flechette is doing what she said she’d do: bring provisions to Parian, and she also still does what she said about not crossing the yellow line. This time Vista came with Flechette, using her power in a shopping bag so more stuff fit in there than normal. Water, beans, multivitamins and first aid supplies, very useful stuff. Not everyone is as lucky, though. The heroes are having a lot of trouble giving provisions to everyone who needs it.

“You’re right,” Flechette interrupted.  “We’re not doing a good job of getting supplies to everyone.  We can’t.  Any time we try to distribute it, a group like Hookwolf’s gang or the Merchants try to seize it.  Even if the heroes on duty fend them off, the citizens get scared away.”

Ah, right. Those two groups are hogging provisions and generally causing trouble. Of course people would be scared. Even if it’s someone who doesn’t have powers, a civilian could get ambushed or attacked later, because no hero is going to watch them all the time during the way back home or something like that. Anyone would be scared. Heck, desperate people don’t have to be only in those groups, other civilians can be quite desperate too. The odds someone, anyone, tries to steal the new provisions are rather high.

Flechette and Parian’s conversation is cut short when Vista hears they have to return to the headquarters, to find out what Kid Win saw. After making sure Parian knows to call them if there’s trouble brewing, they go back.

Before leaving, Parian gives Vista a stuffed rabbit. Vista’s not happy, I suppose because she considers herself too old for stuffed toys. It’s still a nice gesture, yeah. They leave, Vista using her powers to make the trip shorter. Oh boy, first time seeing her using her powers and describing how that feels!

Vista stepped out into the middle of the road at the edge of the fissure, then concentrated. She felt her power extend to every solid object in front of her, formed a map in her head.  There was nobody out there, which made it easier.  Slowly, carefully, she began adjusting.  She truncated the length of Lord street, then did it again, repeating the process to make the four lane road shorter and shorter. The fissure down the center of the road squeezed against itself like a compressed spring.

Right. Of course it all happens in a few seconds, but when she puts it like that, one would expect it to take much longer. It seems a lot of these powers are kind of instinctual, they don’t have to think about the exact information that comes from them. Their minds can organize the information immediately, so they don’t get overwhelmed – or at least that’s what I’m guessing. Flechette’s power allows her to have a grasp of the angles of a place. Spatial awareness sure is a big part of many of these powers!

“It’s not that complicated.  Everything’s like wet clay, and I’m smudging it around.”

Haha! Not the comparison I’d make, since your power isn’t permanent! I remember these wires that can be heated up to high temperatures, twisted into all kind of shapes and, when placed in cold water, returns to its original state. The world would be more akin to those wires than to clay!

‘Kinda’, Vista? That’s how you call your power? ‘Kinda powerful’? What modesty! And I have the feeling it’s genuine, maybe because she doesn’t think it’s big deal, or because she doesn’t like people saying she’s powerful. Everyone knows this is more than ‘kinda powerful’, young lady.

“You could be one of the top dogs in the Protectorate, in five or six more years.”

Vista frowned, “They said the same thing about Dauntless.”

That went to a dark place. She’s really saddened by the deaths, I knew that, but looks like that extends to other heroes too. Why else would she immediately reply with that? Because she has them in mind, I suppose. But yeah, I see her point: you never know what’ll happen. Dauntless had such a bright future ahead of him – so bright it made a certain someone be jealous of it – and theeeen came Leviathan and killed him. So much for that bright future. I came to terms many chapters ago that any character can die anytime, so yeah, Vista may not even reach the Protectorate’s lower rungs before she dies. Not that Vista regrets being a heroine, that’s for sure!

Flechette is kind of impressed at Vista’s maturity, but Vista doesn’t like that comment – wait, let me guess, it’s because she’s young and therefore dislikes when people say she’s mature for her age. Is that it?

It is. Telling them to stop being condescending doesn’t help, either. Oh boy...she’d have been so pissed off at me if I knew why I like her, haha...

The black and white pictures that show the deceased Aegis and Gallant are not a good reminder of the departed, in Vista’s opinion. It seems the Protectorate takes a photo of the Wards when they join, and now that these two died, they just printed those photos in black and white. They look rather young in those photos. Not that they, uh, were much older when they died.

He had still been so young when the tidal wave had smashed into him and caved in his chest.

Oooooh man. That made me wince. You know how much strength you need to cave a chest? I didn’t need to know the exact cause of death, Mr. Wildbow, that’s a hella unpleasant way to die.

Vista was almost eleven when she was inducted into the Wards. So young...I’m morbidly curious about what was her trigger event, because that’s an alarmingly young age. After three years of having to carry the wellbeing of a few dozens of thousands of civilians anyone would be like Vista, especially since she started at such an impressionable age. Just look at her now, thinking about how she may die and her picture will be on display there, in black and white. She has gone from ‘very mature’ to ‘worryingly mature’.

Director Piggot was already waiting when they arrived. Kid Win is quick to inform about what he found out – obtained by legal methods? Hah! It’s a good thing none of this will see the light of the day beyond this room!

We believe this unknown party is Coil.  There’s no other criminals in town that would really do this.  Fenrir’s Chosen aren’t that subtle, and they’re too racist to work with Chariot.  Purity’s group is, again, too racist.  The Undersiders aren’t well-funded enough.  It doesn’t fit the Travelers’ MO.”

Oh hey, these are more or less the conclusions I got to, although I completely forgot about the Undersiders. I don’t think the problem with them would be the funds. In my opinion, it wouldn’t fit their style either. Why to use a mole when you have Tattletale? Sure, she doesn’t actively try to find information about the Protectorate or the Wards, but I think if she wanted to, she could. There’d be no need to get an inside man.

It’s no secret Coil uses moles. There are even a few hired right now into the PRT’s forces. The thing is...does Coil know the PRT knows? Does the PRT know Coil knows the PRT knows? Does Coil know the PRT knows Coil knows the PRT knows? I have the feeling both Coil and the PRT work with the supposition Coil can find out in any moment, and that he doesn’t take the information without careful verification. Coil wouldn’t be so careless as to let false information get to him.

What Piggot wants to do is add another mole into their ranks, letting Chariot join the Wards. Oh boy, what could go wrong. Piggot better know what she’s doing. Then again, if they reject Chariot from the group, I doubt Coil would let Chariot off the hook. That kid would be as good as dead. This solution may be the only one where nobody dies in the near future. Risky moves need everyone’s authorization, though, and that’s what she’s here for, to ask all of them if they’re willing to take the risk and most likely show themselves unmasked to Chariot.

Everyone accepts, although Clockblocker does it reluctantly. Congratulations, you now have a spy infiltrated into your group! A lot of precautionary measures will be necessary from now on. That’d be much easier if the spy wasn’t a tinker, I’d say. Sooner or later that may bring trouble. But for now a plan is done, Piggot is happy, and Kid Win receives acknowledgement! All is fine for the time being.

It seems Vista’s fatalism worried Flechette a lot, because she talked to Weld and told him about that. Hm. I don’t know if that’s good or bad. We all know Weld isn’t the most diplomatic superhero to ever live. She goes to shower. Frankly, I skipped the paragraphs related to that. Feels wrong to read about someone showering, even more when it’s a thirteen year-old.

The water had removed most of it, but there was a line of dried blood flecks on her throat from where the wire had pulled against it.

That’s going to do wonders for Vista’s doom and gloom, eh? Another near-death experience for the already injury-filled life of a superhero. This isn’t even the worst injury she has – well, yeah, from what I read here, the wire didn’t come even close to being lethal – but she thinks of a specific one, on her chest.

It had been the result of an altercation with Hookwolf as the villain escaped the scene of a grisly attack on a grocer, a year ago.  A blade on the villain’s arm had punctured her armor as he’d knocked her aside.  She’d felt the pain of her skin being penetrated and she’d kept quiet about it out of a desperate need to shake the label of being the team baby.  She didn’t want to be seen as the one always in need of help and protection.  It would have been embarrassing to ask for medical attention, only for it to be a scratch.

Huh. So...maybe part of the reason she takes her role as a superhero is out of a desire to not be seen as the team baby. That’s relatable. But that wasn’t just a scratch. It was worse than that, and I think everyone reading this knows the location means it may have been really dangerous. She may be lucky to be alive.  She sewed the injury by herself, and since there was no mention of infection or of any complications, I guess she did it correctly. Is first-aid something the Wards have to learn once they join? Maybe it is.

Vista might have tried asking Panacea to fix it, but hadn’t been able to summon up the courage.

Don’t waste your time. Panacea already has too much in her to-do list, she doesn’t have the time nor reason to heal a scar. I’m not discounting the possibility of deeper damage, but yeah, better not to ask her.

Sophia freaking Hess was in the bathroom too, and she proceeds to remind me why I don’t like her. Sure, she’s not performing any bullying on Vista like she does with Taylor, but she does a comment that was uncalled for.

Great, Vista thought.  Dennis might be acting more like his old self, but Sophia is too.

That’s good! The first step towards getting better is returning to some sort of normalcy. Without forgetting what happened, of course!

Once Vista is dressed up and ready, she goes towards Weld’s room. Weld likes music. So that’s why in the fanart I was shown he was shown with that stuff! Nice, it’s always good to see what a character is interested in.

As expected: Flechette told Weld about Vista’s fatalism, and he wants to know if she’s okay. Vista insists she is fine, but Weld has concerns that...you know, is something I never considered:

“And now you’re acting like nothing fazes you, even the idea of you maybe dying in the near future.  I have to know, Missy.  Do you have a death wish?  Are you going to be putting yourself in unnecessary danger?”

I certainly hope she won’t! Now that’d be depressing. Thankfully, Vista denies that, and I feel inclined towards believing her...although...yeah, Mr. Wildbow mentioning this right after he wrote about how Vista hid a serious injury from everyone else is making me worry about her well-being. It kind of feels like he’s foreshadowing she’s going to put herself in unnecessary danger.

I hope I’m just overthinking it.

“I just want to do a good job as a member of this team.  Carry on their memory.  Act like they would want me to act.  I can work twice as hard, be twice as tough, twice as strong, if it means making up for them being gone.”

I think nobody would want you to crush yourself under this weight. There’s only so much you can do by yourself, powers or not. This only makes me worry even more she’s going to get herself in danger.

Weld is saying the right stuff! Suggesting her to let others help her carry the legacy! That’s the leader they need, yeah!

“Okay. With all this in mind, I have one suggestion and two orders.  My suggestion?  Stop trying to be everything they were.  Be what you’re good at, a caring, sweet young woman who everyone on the team likes.  My professional opinion is that you have it in you to fill some of that void Gallant left.  Use that empathic nature of yours to help others with their own struggles.  Be the team’s heart.”

Maybe he’s going to be useful as a leader after all! Good! I applaud this. So Vista is going to be the heart of the team from now on, hopefully. If she was the cunning type instead of the type to wear her own heart in her sleeve, she could even use her age to manipulate others into keeping a tense and unsatisfying feeling of general harmony, but she won’t, I’m pretty sure she won’t.

Wow, her eyes started watering. Looks like he’s actually reaching her.

“Order number one is that you go see the PRT’s therapist.  If I can clear it with Director Piggot, figure out a way to make the patrol schedules work, I’m going to try to get everyone to go.  I’m honestly kind of flabbergasted that nobody higher up than me has mandated it already.”

About time someone suggested a therapist. Everyone is in sore need of a therapist. It didn’t take long for Weld to get on top of his game, he’s taking some good decisions today. His other order is for Vista to allow herself to cry. She refuses at first, but Weld insists and she finally lets herself cry while he hugs her. Just a few minutes of crying, but it’ll do her good.

When Vista leaves Weld’s room, Sophia does some more gratuitous cruelty because she had nothing better to do, I guess. Vista endures it, getting hit where it hurts, but tries what Weld recommended she should do. Take a guess how that went. It’s like you told someone to learn how to draw and the first thing they attempted to do is hyperrealism.

Feeling awful for the failure of her first attempt at reaching out to her teammates, she turns to leave and says she pities Sophia. That much is enough to piss her off. I suppose she really hates being pitied on. Heck, her reaction is to grab Vista and shove her onto the floor. That’s not the reaction of a sane person. Vista takes it much more calmly than most people would, and points out there are security cameras watching. That dissuades Sophia, who goes out with a bad excuse. Sigh.

You know, Shadow Stalker may be the last Ward to have an intermission..I had said I wanted to read an intermission with her as the point of view character, but now I’m not so sure. I had kind of forgotten how utterly exhausting is to read about what she does and says. Eh.

I guess I’ll see next time what happens.

Next update: in four updates

[obdurare-archive-blog]

you knew this was going to happen. ship meme. lizzie and hector. ♡¯\_(ツ)_/¯

General:

Rate the Ship -  Awful | Ew | No pics pls | I’m not comfortable | Alright | I like it! | Got Pics? | Let’s do it! | Why is this not getting more attention?! | The OTP to rule all other OTPs | They will end me.How long will they last? -  They’re compatible enough to be long term as long as a certain someone doesn’t fuck it up Hector.How quickly did/will they fall in love? -  Since this is the opposite from Hector’s end:  He just turned around and got smacked in the face with it one day.  Oh, there was a lead up but he soldiered on, sure it wasn’t what he thought it was until no, it really is the thing he thought it wasn’t.How was their first kiss? -  Impulsive, because he knew it was a thing that shouldn’t happen.  So awkward because of that.  But here they are.

Wedding:

Who proposed? - Hector.  After several not so subtle hints.  Probably just dropped it into casual conversation, too, like, “Hey, we’re out of coffee, and by the way, I was thinking, and if you’re serious about the whole getting married thing, let’s go ahead and do it.”  Not the most flowery romantic thing, really, but genuine.Who is the best man/men? - Jack, who is probably the most smug bastard on the fact of the planet.  With lots of, “Well, it was nice knowing you, mate”s and “Good luck on that boring domesticity”s.  Jack, it should be noted, has a black eye at the wedding.Who is the braid’s maid(s)? - Anamaria.Who did the most planning? -  Elizabeth.  Hector’s not gonna touch any of it, lbr here.  He knows better.  Because he knows she’s playing that this or that game on purpose and he’s not going to take the bait.  The entire thing is really for her, so if she wants eggshell over white or lace over embroidery, he’s not going to pick either one, because whatever he picks will be wrong.Who stressed the most? -  Honestly, on the one hand, Elizabeth.  On the other, Hector, because he definitely has a moment of no really, what the fuck are you doing considering their lifestyles, his age, etc.  He gets over it, though.How fancy was the ceremony? - Small.  Very small.  Think the most private wedding you’ve been to and make it smaller.  Only the most trusted people in their little circle and there aren’t very many of those at all.Back of a pickup truck | 2 | 3 | 4 | Normal Church Wedding | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | Kate and William wish they were this big.Who was specifically not invited to the wedding? -  Just about everyone they know?  Because lbr they know some very Not Good People.  Again, super small wedding (and also less people to see Hector make an ass of himself, lbr here).  Hector is, at heart, a paranoid bastard and while, hey, he knows he lucked out in every department because pretty he’s never been, he’s also not exactly eager to make her a target, or himself a target against her.

Sex:

Who is on top? - Usually Hector but lbr.  Even if it’s Lizzie he’ll still try to be more dominate.  He gonna do as he do.Who is the one to instigate things? -  Even split now, Hector at the first.  Like, look, friendo, have you seen Elizabeth?  There’s nothing wrong with his eyesight or anything else, thanks.How healthy is their sex life? - Barely touch themselves let alone each other | 2 | 3 | 4 | Once a couple weeks, nothing overboard | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | They are humping each other on the couch right nowHow kinky are they? - Straight missionary with the lights off | 2 | 3 | 4 | Might try some butt stuff and toys | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | Don’t go into the sex dungeon without a horse’s headHow long do they normally last? -  Like we’re not talking marathons here, friend, because that’s completely unrealistic but he’s got a little staying power, jfc, give a man some credit.Do they make sure each person gets an equal amount of orgasms? - Like, look, okay, he tries.  But he’s an assassin, Jim, not a miracle worker.  I’d say it pretty much probably evens out.How rough are they in bed? - Softer than a butterfly on the back of a bunny | 2 | 3 | 4 | The bed’s shaking and squeaking every time | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | Their dirty talk is so vulgar it’d make Dwayne Johnson blush. Also, the wall’s so weak it could collapse the next time they do it.How much cuddling/snuggling do they do? - No touching after sex | 2 | 3 | 4 | A little spooning at night, or on the couch, but not in public | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | They snuggle and kiss more often than a teen couple on their fifth date to a pillow factory.Children:

How many children will they have naturally? -  On purpose?  None.  I feel like…A modern Hector at that point?  Probably snipped.How many children will they adopt? - 0.Who gets stuck with the most diapers? -  Hector.  Because any kids they have will 100% be an accident (because really, he doesn’t at all want any and so they’d also be Against All Odds).  But he would, hypothetically, and after an awkward stage, take to being a parent well (without his canon background in the way). Who is the stricter parent? -  Elizabeth.Who stops the kid(s) from doing dangerous stunts after school? - E L I Z A B E T HWho remembers to pack the lunch(es)? -  Definitely Elizabeth.Who is the more loved parent? -  I will debate this and say it’s an even split if anything. Especially when said hypothetical kid was little.Who is more likely to attend the PTA meetings?  Elizabeth.  Hector’s not allowed there anymore.  Marcy didn’t appreciate his blunt commentary.Who cried the most at graduation? - Elizabeth.  Hector doesn’t do that crying thing.Who is more likely to bail the child(ren) out of trouble with the law? -  Hector.  Because as scary as he is, Elizabeth’s scarier.Cooking:

Who does the most cooking? - Neither one of them, to be honest.  They’re just not really very good at it.  But if an Attempt Is Made, nine times out of ten it’s Elizabeth that makes it.Who is the most picky in their food choice? -  Hector only because he mostly refuses to change his dietary habits at all.  He’s such a baby about it he had to be plied with gummy multivitamins.Who does the grocery shopping? -  “””Grocery shopping.”””  Hector will only do it if forced or dragged along.How often do they bake desserts? -  Hector?  Not at all.  His idea of baking desserts is…Okay, so.  He’s so terrible at it?  Those pizzas you bake that come with the cookies, too?  He’ll just shove those back in the freezer, because he cannot bake at all.Are they more of a meat lover or a salad eater? -  Elizabeth can keep shoving rabbit food at him all she wants, he’s gonna do as he do.  He’ll do it in front of her to prove a point, because he’s not a cow and he doesn’t want to eat grass.Who is more likely to surprise the other(s) with an anniversary dinner? -  Hector.  Like, look, okay, he can be a real asshole, and he has trouble trusting and all of that happy shit.  But at the end of the day he’s a giant sap who just can’t help himself.Who is more likely to suggest going out? -  It’s true.  Hector is very lazy and will suggest this thing over attempting to cook.  Especially between the pair of them they can make things that are edible but not…Very…Good.Who is more likely to burn the house down accidentally while cooking? -  Elizabeth.  Hector is currently 547 days kitchen accident free.Chores:

Who cleans the room? - Probably Elizabeth (because lbr canon Hector’s not what you’d call neat or organized either).  Hector’s the type to drop wet towels in the bathroom floor when he’s done with them (he’s, sadly, also the type to just walk through naked after the fact and not really care - he’s at home, don’t look if you have a problem with it).Who is really against chores? -  Hector.Who cleans up after the pets? -  Hector, because that’s the one thing he won’t bitch too hard about.Who is more likely to sweep everything under the rug? -  Hector.  Can’t find the dust pan?  Fuck it, no one will know.Who stresses the most when guests are coming over? -  Neither?  Like, if anyone does actually come over it’s probably like Jack, and pfft.  Yeah, it’s just Jack.Who found a dollar between the couch cushions while cleaning? -  Elizabeth.  And it’s probably Hector’s dollar, too.  That change in the cushions she finds, too?  Yeah, probably all his.Misc:

Who takes the longer showers/baths? -   Elizabeth.  He has no idea what she’s really doing in there but when she finally emerges it’s like a flower shop threw up and there’s glitter everywhere.Who takes the dog out for a walk? -  Cats.  (Hector would totally want a dog, though.)How often do they decorate the room/house for the holidays? -  Hardly???  Ever???  Decorations are invitations to be bothered, in Hector’s opinion.  What are their goals for the relationship? -  His?  To not murder Elizabeth.  To not get caught murdering someone for Elizabeth.  And to not get murdered.  In that order.Who is most likely to sleep till noon? -  Both?  Probably?  Hector was once upon a time an early riser but then he met his lazy sod of a girl and now he sleeps in entirely too late thanks to her and simply the way The Job works.Who plays the most pranks? -  Hector.  More verbal ones than anything, but it’s how he’s going to get murdered by Elizabeth.

Horoscopes for a Trump Presdiency

Hey there, KBOO listeners (and everybody else)! Here is my latest piece, as promised

Aries

When all around you feels dark and empty, breathe deeply from the void. Hold the empty air inside you until your lungs feel so full they might burst, and then breathe out and send that fullness back into the void. In the beginning all was void, a black empty silence so vast it defies comprehension. Our world was born from this and we were born from our world, and everything we have become and built in all its richness and complexity grew from void. Breathe in, breathe out. This is not the end; it is yet another beginning. You were made to grow.

Taurus

A 2014 study indicates that dogs prefer to poop aligned with the Earth’s magnetic field. This has some pretty cool implications: first, that dogs can sense the Earth’s magnetic fields, and second, that scientists spent two years watching dogs poop. Science is great. When people are behaving bizarrely or erratically, it’s possible that their behavior has logic you just don’t know about, and you can leave it at that or dig deeper. Investigation might yield interesting results, but figuratively speaking, you’ll have to spend a lot of time watching dogs poop.

Gemini

Go for a walk. Feel the wind on your face and the ground beneath your feet. Though the trees are barren and the biting cold seems to creep through all your layers no matter how much you bundle up, the cold will only chill your skin, not what lies beneath. Your heart beats hot and red, sending blood throughout your body and keeping you alive. You are the body and your soul dwells within your heart. You banish the cold and bring life to those around you. Surround your outsides with the warm microfleece of human kindness and the tough, water-resistant Gore-Tex of solidarity. Onward into the wind!

Cancer

Some of the most frustrating and useless advice you can give to a shy person is “just be yourself!” The thing is it’s actually pretty good advice, and right now it is what you must do. Be the most yourself you can be. Be yourself so hard it hurts. Be yourself when you’re scared or angry or happy or hungry or filled with so much joy you feel like you might burst. Be yourself when it’s inconvenient and hard. Be yourself, and also protect yourself. You are worth protecting, you are capable of protecting yourself, and you have others you can call on when you need them. You just do you, baby. Survive and thrive.

 Leo

Try to get about eight hours of sleep every night, and half an hour of exercise every day. Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables and make sure you’re getting enough protein. Avoid processed food and excessive screen time. Drink a lot of water. Brush your teeth twice a day, and floss. Take a multivitamin. Shower or bathe regularly. Journal often. Do yoga. Do laundry before you get down to your last pair of underwear. Don’t let dishes pile up in the sink or dust collect in the corners of your house. Or, y’know, just do what you can. Self-care can be hard, especially when the list goes on and on and you have other life things to attend to. The point of self-care is to make your life easier, not to torture yourself with an overwhelming and endless to do list. Practicing good self-care is incredibly important for you right now, but don’t get so bogged down in the details that you lose sight of the purpose.

Virgo

When you get overwhelmed, imagine that you’re on a rollercoaster. You can’t get off until the ride is over, but you can control whether the ride is one long panic attack or a series of fun thrills. The difference between the two is acceptance. Close your eyes and visualize yourself in a car hurtling along a metal track. See yourself throw your hands in the air and yell “wheeee!” Think to yourself, “this is fun. I am here, on this rollercoaster, having fun.” Look at all the other people strapped in around you, telling themselves the same thing. You aren’t in this alone. “Wheeeeeee!” Up, down, and around you go. Nauseous? Who’s nauseous? Certainly not you. You are having fun. “Wheee!” Say it until it’s true.

Libra

Sometimes you are afraid that you are “too much” and that you love too deeply and intensely. You think that maybe you should try to tone it down, though somehow that doesn’t feel quite right and you aren’t sure how you’d even go about it. Don’t tone it down. Love fiercely and unapologetically. Love like a river during monsoon season that loves its banks so much it consumes them and washes away whole villages. Love like the forest fire that gives pinecones the heat they need to release their seeds. Love like the snowstorm that blankets a city and brings it to a standstill. We need you right now. All of us do.

Scorpio

There are no rules anymore. Or there are rules, but they’re different. At this point it’s hard to even know, and it’s up to us to figure out how to navigate this strange and alarming new world. Wrap your cloak around you, sheath your sword at your side, and stride off into the forest. There’s no way of knowing what wonders or horrors might await you there, but your sword arm is strong, your movement is steady, and your mind is open. If you come to an impasse, loop back and find another way around. If you encounter a shadowy stranger with an odd gleam in their eye, listen with your whole heart but make no promises. If you find a unicorn, you could probably make friends with it.

Saggitarius

Your integrity is your greatest asset. You’ve been thinking that maybe it’s time to be a bit more flexible about living in accordance with your values, not because you want to but because perhaps it is necessary to survive in these times. Don’t do it. You are a compass, and others will look to you when they’re turned around and don’t know which way is north. You are a guiding star, a point of light in a dark sky that we can reach towards. Living with integrity will not be easy in this time of trouble, but if you work hard you will always find a way to maintain your integrity without compromising your safety. It is okay to speak softly and live quietly if that’s what you need to do to stay in tune with your values. It is also okay to stand in the street and shout.

Capricorn

Here’s an important thing to remember: you deserve joy, and sometimes (especially when the world is letting you down), that means you gotta treat yourself. Go on a road trip, take a nap, play hooky from your responsibilities to go spend time with friends, go to a concert, eat a ridiculously large brownie, or punch a Nazi right in the face. Do whatever nourishes your soul and brings your heart delight.  

Aquarius

They tell you the moon stays above the Earth even when you cannot see it. They tell you the stars are outside your body. They tell you the stars are not alive. They tell you the sky will never know your name. They tell you there is such a thing as truth, and they own it. I tell you there are constellations living under your tongue, and every night the sky whispers love poems in your ears, and every morning you and the moon eat French toast and cuddle under the blankets. Arise! You already are your own best self.

Pisces

Make art. It doesn’t matter if it’s shitty. Write, sing, dance, act, play, paint, sculpt, photograph, cook, plant, express. Make art so ugly it’s hard to look at; make art so beautiful it’s hard to look away. Our capitalist overlords want you to be a consumer, but they don’t own you and you don’t owe them anything, so produce instead. Engage in everyday acts of creation, and bring artistry into even the most mundane aspects of your life. Art is salvation. Art is connection. Art is life.

Ideas For Consideration Of Simple Systems Of Stevia Sweetened Iso Xp

A Background Analysis Of Deciding Upon Details For Grass Fed Whey Protein Canada

The first is Swerve®, a low-calorie sweetener made from erythritol (a sugar alcohol) and oligosaccharides, sweet fibers from fruits and vegetables. Unlike some artificial sweeteners, Swerve doesn’t spike blood sugar. The final ingredient is ProHydrolase®, a digestive enzyme blend that I’ll discuss in the next section. BioTrust Low Carb Benefits and Effectiveness With that many carbohydrates it’s far from the lowest carb protein powder I’ve seen (there are plenty with zero carbs), but the 4 grams of fiber it could make it more satiating than some of the extremely low carb powders out there. I think that’s also why more than a quarter of the protein content is casein. The brand seems to be targeting people trying to lose weight, and the fiber and the slow-digesting casein should help with satiety better than, say, a no-carb no-fat whey isolate. It’s also made from dairy sourced from free range cows that aren’t treated with antibiotics or hormones like rBGH, or rBST. Then there’s the digestive enzymes. ProHydrolase doesn’t say exactly what’s in their blend, which is annoying, but there are a lot of studies on their site that show it’s more effective than competitors at reducing digestive discomfort and reducing the amount of amino acids that get excreted out of the body, i.e. it helps you absorb more protein. They don’t provide the studies on their site, but they are available at request.

Building Mass In The Gym, Easy Methods Of Gaining.

Whether you've been working out for years or you are a novice, learning about fitness is to your benefit. Knowing how your body works and how to best improve your level of fitness can make a world of difference. If you stick to the information you just learned, you will get good results. Don't have a large chunk of time to devote to exercising? Make two smaller workouts by splitting your ordinary exercise routine. Do not increase the time you workout, but try to break it into a half. Rather than getting an hour's worth of running in at once, try half before work and half later in the day. If you would rather not visit your fitness center twice in a single day, you could do one workout at the gym and then do another workout outdoors. During your workout, ensure that you exhale after every weight rep. You can help the blood and oxygen flow throughout your body more efficiently by doing this. There are lots of different types of exercise routines and classes that keep you feeling energized and motivated. Switching things up will allow you a chance to discover classes you love and give you reason to keep heading back to the gym. Try a dancing class or spinning. Consider Jazzercise or boot camp. If you don't like a class, you don't have to go back, and you will have burned some calories. Treadmills and other forms of indoor exercise equipment are great, but they don't compare to exercising in the great outdoors. Although treadmills are especially convenient during the winter months, running outside on pavement is best. Always work out in comfortable clothes. If you attend a gym, you might feel a bit of pressure to wear the trendy clothing, but you're better off without it. Wear loose, comfortable clothes that allow you to move around freely. Wearing the correct clothing helps you put your emphasis on working out, not on your clothes. Most people need motivation to stay on their diet program, so they have to see and feel the results in order to keep going. Instead of stepping on the scales, keep some tight-fitting clothes around. Try on these clothes weekly as you are dieting, and you can really experience the transformation of your life. Want to make chin-ups easier? Changing the way you think about them can help. Visualize chin-ups as you drawing your elbows down towards your body, rather than pulling your whole body up. Changing your thinking in this way will change how you perceive chin-ups and increase the maximum amount you can do. Boost up the density of all your workouts to help you lose weight faster. If you exercise more in a shorter amount of time, you can see more weight loss. Either take shorter breaks between sets or just do "super sets" with no break between, resulting in maximum exercise density. Your weight loss will be increased by this method. When you are attempting to reach your fitness goals, it can be very helpful to give your trainer his or her payment prior to the start of the workout. That way, you are going to be likely to go to all your sessions, much more so than if you wait to pay after every workout. This is largely because the sessions are already paid for and not a recurring expense or bill hanging over your head. You are going to want to get what you paid for. It doesn't matter what kind of person you are; you can experience significant changes in your body by utilizing the tips you have just read. Learning as much as possible about fitness regimens can give you the best workout achievable. Apply everything that you learned today so that you can have a great looking body.

Things You Need To Know About Vitamins And Minerals

There is no better way to keep your body healthy than to understand what it needs. Even though a lot of people do their best to get and stay healthy, it is easy to miss some things. Do you know how to broaden your understanding of vitamins and minerals? The following article will give you the understanding you need. When it comes to having strong bones, calcium is key. In order for the body to be able to readily absorb calcium, your body must have ample levels of vitamin D. You can get vitamin D many ways, including sunlight, food, and supplements. Each of these things is a good way to make sure your body will absorb calcium. Fat containing supplements should be consumed with food, so it is important you take them during the time you eat. Vitamins E, K and A are examples of supplements that should only be taken with food because they are easier to absorb at that time. They work especially well when ingested with fatty foods like fish. Why does your body hurt so much? Instead of going to a doctor or a chiropractor to help with aches that are minor you should try vitamins and minerals out. Fish oils and vitamin E can help your muscles soften when they're bound up. If you want to have strong and abundant red blood cells, you must get enough iron. This helps to transport oxygen through the body. Women require more iron than men. This is why a woman should choose a multivitamin for women. If you are feeling exhausted or having trouble breathing, you may not be getting enough iron. If you want to stay healthy, add the right nutrients to your diet. Getting the right amount of nutrients will help you feel good and look good, while keeping you healthy. Most vegetables and fruits are packed with healthy nutrients that your body needs, but it is important to eat fresh rather than canned produce. You may also want to add a multivitamin to your diet. Living in a poor economy sometimes means we deprive our body of good nutrition by eating as cheap as possible at the local fast food restaurant. Use some proper vitamins to make sure that you are keeping your immune system strong and allowing your body's metabolism to stay at its peak. Remember Whey Protein that some vitamins and minerals, such as calcium carbonate, must be taken with food. Calcium citrate is able to be taken when your stomach is empty, but not calcium carbonate. If you do, it is unable to get absorbed. As people age, they tend not to absorb B12 as well. Some people make consume a lot of it but their body just can't absorb it well. The secret here is to get your levels tested annually and consider supplementation through shots if need be. Did you know that diets low in magnesium, omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin D can lead to depression and depressive thoughts? Omega-3 fatty acids are among the most popular of all the supplements, and its popularity is well deserved. It supports the healthy of the brain and other things. You can help maintain a relaxed body with a magnesium supplement. Do not cook your vegetables. When you cook your food, you can cut back on the amount of vitamins you consume. If you are preparing vegetables, it is important that you steam them the right way to get a good taste without losing out on essential vitamins. Nutrients are also preserved in flash-frozen vegetables, but only if you do not cook them for too long. The most important part of your life is your body, so knowing what it requires is crucial. You need to know how supplements will affect your health. Learn more with this article. This is how you will keep your body in its best condition.

Get Fit With These Smart Fitness Tips

Fitness might not come easy to you. It isn't something many people find simple. If you don't know where to begin, it's hard to begin a regimen. Information and guidance are required. Here are a few tips that will help you get started in getting fit today. If you're new to exercising, or haven't worked out in a while, think about hiring a personal trainer. A good trainer can help you identify your problem areas, figure out your goals and suggest a workout regimen that suits your needs. Entering a gym can be hard to do, but having a trainer can help because they can show you what to do. This is the first step toward following a great workout plan. You can substantially boost your fitness level by walking. To maximum the effectiveness of your walking workout, push off using the heel first and then your toes last. Also, move your arms side to side, to improve flexibility and endurance while walking. Grow a garden. Many people are shocked when they find out that gardening is hard work. You will need to weed, dig, turn over sod, and your body will be moving around a lot! Gardening is one activity that can help you get fit at home. Try toning your arms by doing some push ups, this works the triceps very well. Well, not quite average. Instead of the traditional style, a nice angle at roughly 45 degrees with your palms is much better practice. This targeted push-up exercise will strengthen and tone those hard-to-reach triceps like no other exercise out there. Exercise using the right shoes. When you don shoes that are inappropriate for a given activity, you may injure your legs, feet or ankles. Also, the wrong shoes can leave your feet tired and sore, discouraging you from continuing your exercise program. When you are lifting and doing reps, you should count down instead of up. Your motivation will increase and you can focus better on how close you are to finishing the exercise. To increase the strength of your forearms, try this great tip from tennis and racquetball players. Put a piece of paper on a table or other surface that is smooth. Crumple up the whole sheet of paper in your dominant hand for a half of a minute. Do this exercise twice with the dominant hand and once with the other hand. Repeat as many times as deemed necessary. Keep up your workout routine on the weekends. Weekends should include some relaxation, but also some exercise. You have to be active all 7 days of the week in order to get into shape. It is not possible to not do anything all weekend and do it during the week. Running can be both a blessing and a curse. To minimize the damage, every sixth week run only half your usual miles to give your body rest time. Cutting back for a week gives your body time to heal and will help you to avoid unnecessary injuries. Weight belts were once considered a must have when lifting weights, but people now realize that it's probably best to save them for the more challenging weights. Constant use of a weight belt can be harmful, in the long run. When your body gets used to the support of the weight belt, your back and abdominal muscles atrophy. Apply what you've just learned if you're ready to get fit. Although it is going to require some time and hard work to adjust, you'll eventually notice results and be proud of your accomplishments. Being fit is a great way to keep the mind and body in good shape, so do not hesitate to do it.

A Background In Trouble-free Canada Solutions

Oversupply concerns are actually getting worse But while these are exciting times for green-rush investors, they're also somewhat worrisome. In the wake of an expected recreational legalization, pot stock valuations have headed into the stratosphere. While this has made money for investors, and allowed cannabis companies to raise capital via bought-deal offerings, it's also led to the growing possibility of a supply glut. You see, no one has any real clue what demand might look like once Canada gives the green light on adult-use sales. Various government- and province-based reports, along with estimates from Wall Street, have estimated that annual demand could come in around 800,000 kilograms, with perhaps slow but steady growth from there. However, based on fully funded capacity from some of the largest Canadian weed growers, a domestic glut looks increasingly likely. Just over a month ago, I contended that Canada was headed toward " an epic glut of marijuana ." Since then, those oversupply concerns have only worsened due to ongoing capacity expansion activity. Here's a brief look at what the six largest growers could now bring to the table annually. Canopy Growth Corp. ( NASDAQOTH:TWMJF ): 400,000 kilograms to 500,000 kilograms (my estimate) Aurora Cannabis ( NASDAQOTH:ACBFF ): 430,000 kilograms Mind you, this doesn't include players like Cronos Group, Supreme Cannabis Company, Sunniva, and Emerald Health Therapeutics ( NASDAQOTH:EMHTF ). The former three might produce between 30,000 and 50,000 kilograms annually, while Emerald Health has the capacity to eventually push north of 100,000 kilograms.  The biggest changes are seen at the top, with Canopy Growth and Aurora Cannabis pushing production ever higher. Earlier this week, Aurora Cannabis announced that it was acquiring 71 acres of land in Medicine Hat, Alberta, to build the "Aurora Sun" facility. This high-technology hybrid greenhouse should be capable of growing 150,000 kilograms of dried cannabis a year over its 1.2 million-square-foot facility.

Don't Search High And Low, Learn About Vitamins Here

When you were a child, did you have optimal health? Do you remember what you were eating and drinking? Is your diet today much different? The reason our diets change is because we don't have someone properly preparing our meals anymore, thus they lack in the proper amount of nutrition. Check out the following tips to help you start feeling your best. Vitamins can help you get more from your workouts. Including vitamin and mineral supplements to your diet not only allows for fast recover time, but also provides the nourishment needed by your body to burn fat and build muscle. Milk and sun exposure are great vitamin D sources. If you do not drink milk or spend time outdoors, you may need to take a vitamin D supplement. Vitamin D plays a major role when it comes to keeping your bones strong. Iron is an essential part of red blood cells. These are the cells which get oxygen from place to place. Women need more iron and many supplements Whey Protein are made for them with higher iron concentrations. If you are feeling exhausted or having trouble breathing, you may not be getting enough iron. Vitamins and minerals, as part of a healthy diet, can help you maintain better health. Better health can save on those medical costs, too. Vitamins will improve your mood and keep your body stable and healthy. To get more B2 vitamin into one's diet, eat foods like diary and bananas. If you don't get enough vitamin B2, you could experience scaly sin, dry lips and even lowered red blood cells. Riboflavin has been shown to help prevent cancer, carpal tunnel syndrome, cataracts and anemia. Today, many individuals need supplements to be healthy. Canned and packaged goods on grocery store shelves lose nutrients during processing. One way to make up for it is by taking daily multivitamins. Many fruits and vegetables have lots of healthy nutrients; however, fresh is much better than canned. You may need to add a quality supplement to your diet, too. Talk to your doctor to be tested for vitamin deficiencies. This is the first area on which you must concentrate when you choose your supplements, so understanding which ones you must start taking immediately is critical. With the economy as it is, many people are looking to quick, cheap and fast food to get them by, and missing out on valuable nutrients in the process. Multivitamins can help us fill in the gaps our diet leaves behind. Manganese is a nutrient that you should consider. It can boost wound healing and bone formation. It can also boost the metabolism of carbs, cholesterol, and protein. This important mineral can be found in nuts, grains, beans and tea. You can purchase the supplement at retail stores, as well. You must make sure you're careful if you're going to take supplements. Vitamins and minerals are great for your body, but you can overdose. This dangerous situation usually occurs when too many supplements are taken. Overdosing on vitamins can sometimes be fatal, depending on which vitamin you take, so keep this in mind as you are taking them. If you're taking calcium carbonate supplements for dental and bone health, take them with a meal. This supplement must be taken with a meal, unlike calcium citrate. If you don't eat, there is really no point in taking the supplement as it can't be absorbed. As you age, your ability to absorb B12 diminishes. You may eat a lot but absorb very little. It's a good idea to have a doctor test your B12 levels so that you can figure out whether or not you need to get shots. You need to understand how to stay healthy. There are helpful tips here. The more you learn, the better you can feel and the longer you can live, so keep going!
