#Swimming is do cool

Paralympic swimmer Barbara Gordon is an idea I hold very close to my heart. The way she'd find water as recovering, maybe she swam when younger. Was swimmer in highschool, used to pull her hair into swim caps, and go throw swimsuits much to fast.
So while trying to find something to hold on in the aftermath on her injury and there it is. She gets help, learning to adjust. To pull her self through the water again, new prescription goggles helping her along the way. It's hard, learning to swim after an injury. Even a broken arm takes recovery it gets it moving properly in the water. But she keeps going, runs tech at night, swims early in the morning.
She never thought swimming would mean much to her, not like this. But than there she is is. Transferring into the pool, a team USA cap on her head, and swims. Her arms pulling her through the water to victory.

friendly reminder that frederick kreiburg canonically cannot swim
+ bonus art of him looking like a bitchass hater because i love his expression here:
#rambling#idv#identity v#frederick kreiburg#idv composer#idk if it's like. he can't swim#bc like people who can swim do very much still get into Situations where they need to be rescued#but i think it's funnier if he can't swim#also his tuning fork + mallet being his earrings in this design is such a cute n cool little detail god i love him#so tempted to just make an appreciation post of his + ganji's piercings in their skins / merch designs#not rn but maybe later

my love letter to every queer person that came before:
it is because of seeing you that a teenager feels a little more comfortable in their skin. it is your joy and your love and your bravery and your authenticity that proves to queer kids that it will be alright. just living, just growing old is an incredible thing, and you are bringing so much more good into the world than you know.
#heartstopper#heartstopperedit#heartstoppercentral#heartstopperdaily#dailynetflix#lgbtsource#dailylgbtq#mystuff#mygifs#heartstoppergif#userdyamond#tusercaro#uservalentina#usernorah#tusersilence#tuserhidden#as someone who often gets sad bc I never had love like that as a teenager this little interaction was really healing to see#like I saw a 15 or 16 your old kid at work a while ago and my outfit and vibe was visibly queer and I could tell they were really excited#and it warmed my heart that maybe I made that kid's day better#and also my dad did a really long swim that I went to to cheer him on and there was this cool queer looking person doing the swim that was#probably 5-10 years older than me#and when they were getting ready to race I noticed they had top surgery scars#and when I noticed it was so cathartic and exciting to see that I burst into tears#like queer joy begets queer joy and we just pass it down over and over and we support each other without even realizing#and yeah I'm extremely emotional

Have you ever met your online friends irl?
not a single one LMAOOOOOO.
#ofmermaidstories-asks#the ultimate fantasy is doing a groupchat meetup where we go somewhere cool (lots of nature) and spend our days like—#—exploring or swimming and writing. and then the evenings are filled with music and everyone having fun as we make dinner together 🥹

I know that Shanks didn't teach Luffy jack shit besides respect for what a pirate flag stands for and you ride or die for your nakama
#he was there for a YEAR and didn't teach that kid to swim#nothing about sailing or reading maps#just instilled his weirdest and most twisted morals imaginable#have i posted about this before???#i can't remember#but anyway it still stands especially since roger seemed to do the same with shanks#didn't teach him any cool moves#shanks had to just observe and go from there#SHANKS + LUFFY.

I watched a seminar about scientific diving and got so excited and passionate and interested..and then my heart sank.
Ill never be able to do that will I?
Sure I may be able to do one diving trip once in a while, but to have it be my job, well its the same issue as doing surveys on land.
I feel so jealous of people who get to go and do those types of things. Who are living my dreams...with their strong and painless bodies. I'll always be stuck behind a screen, not doing what I'm most passionate about. Weighed down by pain and brain fog. I'll always be 10 steps behind everyone, no matter how hard I try. And like one diver said, they only take the best.
#wrenfea.exe#chronic disability#chronic pain#spoonie#disability#scientific diving#even if i am able to dive I would still need to pass physical and medical requirements#i just thought that since when I swim Im not in pain it would be a way for me to pursue my passion#I love invertebrates so much they make me so happy and excited#seeing one crab makes my whole day and the studies they were doing were so cool#i just look at those divers and see what my life wouldve been if I never became disabled

guys I still can’t believe that one day soon we are gonna see [+] LuzuVlogs back on the qsmp I’ve missed him soooo much. I really loved watching his qsmp streams in the early days. silly guy coming back can’t wait for him to meet new people!!
And the day I hear those beep boops of q!Arin…? oh you don’t even know. I will cry real tears I love them so dearly
If you’re new to Arin lore and wanna catch up before he comes back check this playlist, it’s only 3 VODS, and mostly reading. If you can’t read spanish here’s a tip: pull up google translate camera reader and point at the screen :D
#EEEEEE I can’t wait ^^#he’s gonna have so much fun chilling on the server#and doing his cool robot rp#arin lore again…. so excited#it made me tear up multiple times#(spoilers ->)#that scene where they fell in the lake and couldn’t swim is seared into my brain#qsmp#qsmp luzu#qsmp arin

all these horrible tumblr updates, but WHEN are we going to get an update that allows us to look at public tags in chronological order huh. i want there to be an acknowledgement & archive of media & blogs & such from the WAY back. i want to be able to see the VERY FIRST FEW SURVIVING POSTS of any given media ( TSP for one ) without having to dig around through old obscure blogs for it ( if so i can FIND THEM ), as fun as that is
#twinkie talks#AND IF THERE IS A WAY TO DO THIS for the love of god someone tell me#how cool. would that be#you enter an old long lasting fandom in its modern years#but wouldn't you like to see what people in the beginning were talking about regarding it.#WOULDN'T YOU LIKE TO SEE. the first things people were discussing back when tumblr began#without just having to hope one post or another was popular enough to get circulated through syndication#because i sure would like 2 swim more in 2013 tsp myself#that shit is FUN & very very relaxing#but i've got no way to do that without REALLY digging#unless you tsp oldies can link me some of that :gazes at you:#anyway

I’m on mobile I can’t add this to my reblogs. Do you see this shit. Anyways this map calculates stuff assuming that you’re traveling at a constant speed (and on the current world) so the entire round trip is approximately 4 years but I’m imagining that aside from that stretch riding the current across the southern ocean there’s going to be frequent stops and they’re not going to be moving constantly so I could definitely stretch the reasonable travel time by more than that. Just one of the major Salmonid migration routes I was thinking could exist. This is not the one that comes by þ squidcountry
#I will do any others once I have a better idea of climate zones#Con stop yapping#what a cool and useful website though if people want it I will link it when I’m home#Squid 2 the evolution of the squid#I initially had them hugging the coastline the whole way but I looked at the currents again and they’d be swimming upstream at points if#they do that. so. perilous crossing over open waters it is
