Not Feeling Autistic Enough…

In real life Buck did Advanced Calculus classes at the Stalag. Can you imagine Bucky just going there to look at Buck talking about math or just to annoy Buck with stupid questions like “Professor Buck does 2+2=7?" and Buck just ignoring him and all the others that don't know them being like ?? and the people from the 100 being like 🤦‍♂️. But when Alex gets to the camp and start asking smart questions and start debating with Buck and Buck is so excited about talking about math and physics and he tells Bucky how amazing Alex is and Bucky gets more and more jealous (maybe he will at one point push Buck in a room and kiss him) or be like ohhh Alex you new best friend

Calculus classes in the stalag?? This needs to be a fic yesterday! 😍

Bucky dutifully attends every class, both to support Gale and to see him at least marginally happier than he usually is in the camp.

Hahaha, jealous Bucky is always a classic! I love the friendship between Alex and Gale but I imagine it might take some time for Bucky to realize Alex isn’t a threat to his spot in Gale’s life.

I was thinking about How to train your dragon at work today, as I usually do, and I remembered seeing this post about how Toothless is only toothless for Hiccup, which is really interesting and shows their bond! I’ve also realized that he does this with other riders he trusts like Astrid and he also did it for Dagur in race to the edge when he stopped being evil.

**Note that the title of this article is misleading since what was really found was that the double bridles created less nasal pressure but more head pressure. I'm just focusing on the results of the study rather than the magazine's interpretation of it.

..............................................................................................................................

The team recruited 13 horses and riders competing at inter II or grand prix level, accustomed to being ridden in snaffles and doubles, and with their usual riders. All were assessed by a vet, including dentally, to ensure there was no discomfort, and bridle fit was checked.

Pressure was then measured, synchronised with video of the horses moving.

“In this group of horses, we found the mean nasal pressures were lower for the double bridle,” Dr MacKechnie-Guire said. “Maximum nasal pressure was lower for the double bridle versus the snaffle. So in this high-level group of horses, the double bridle did not increase nasal or mandible pressures compared to the snaffle.”

The team did find increased pressure over the horses’ heads in the double, which Dr MacKechnie-Guire said reinforced the complexity of bridle-horse interaction; much attention is given to nosebands but, he said, padding headpieces appropriately would allow distribution of the force.

Dr MacKechnie-Guire also presented a study on rein pressure, on fellow researcher David Marlin’s behalf, conducted at the same time.

This found that in trot, there was less rein force in the double than in the snaffle, and it was similar in walk and canter. The force on the curb bit was less than on the bradoon, in all gaits, and the force on the bradoon was less than on the snaffle.

“What we could potentially suggest is that with the presence of two bits, the total force is being distributed over a greater area,” Dr MacKechnie-Guire said. “It suggests potential for greater focal forces being applied to the oral structures by the snaffle bit.”

Dr MacKechnie-Guire stressed that he was not suggesting all horses should have two bits; he reiterated that these were high-level horses and riders, and future work is needed at lower levels. And on the biological effects of the findings.

So— I wrote fluff.. and possibly oc x canon

Day in the Meadow

“Like this??”

Timothy asked as he held up a mess of flowers, barely gaining the circle shape he was going for. He wanted to learn how to make a flower crown after Raine had made him one— that was still currently resting atop his head.

Raine had been leaning against him, her shoulder and cheek against his back— more-less using him as a shield against the sun. She perked up to his voice, forcing herself from her spot to get a look.

“Yeah! You’re getting there.”

She smiled, lingering slightly even when Tim let out a semi-frustrated sigh.

“This is hard, how’d ya get it to stay? Mine keeps on breaking.”

“That’s okay! It takes practice. Plus, yer doin’ real good for the first try.”

She reassured him as she gently held the bottom of his hands and raised them slightly out of his lap. The praise forming a bright smile on his face, quickly replacing the defeated puppy eyes a second ago.

“Really?”

Raine hummed in response, her usual soft smile now bright to match his enthusiasm.

“I’m makin’ this one fer Bodie. Whatcha think? I’m worried I made it too big.”

She asked as she held up a crown full of dandelions and a few daisies. The young gator gawked in awe, “Woah! I’m thinkin’ he’ll love it!”

Raine flushed, now a little embarrassed by his enthusiasm.

“Heh, thanks Tim.”

~

A distraction offered itself into the momentary silence when Raine flinched and clenched her eyes shut, raising her hand to shield them. The sun was setting.

Raine hummed as her eyes refocused, admiring the bright oranges and golds. Tim found himself joining her in sunset gazing, a soft smile plastered in both of their faces as they stared off into the horizon.

“Beautiful ain’t it?”

She spoke, asking no one in particular. Tim’s gaze shifted from the sunset to her, going to say something but stopped. His eyes locked on hers, though she remained oblivious to him.

Her eyes were full of colors from the sunset; vaguely similar to the pinks and purples of his singing tanzanite. His gaze shifted down to trace the scars along her face. She hadn’t told him the story, no matter how much he begged. Scars were always so cool to him, but he could tell she hated hers.

In spite of that fact… he couldn’t help but admire her.

“Yeah..”

Raine felt a chill rush down her spine as a hand brushed the hair away, tucking it behind her ear while a daisy held it in place. A meek;

“Huh?”

Escaped her mouth as she turned to the boy beside her, her cheeks flushed and chest a mix of various emotions.

“I’m not gonna finish it anyway, so, uh—yeah.. we—we should probably get goin’ now. Don’t wanna be back too late! Gumbo should be done by now, Bodie’s probably look’n fer us.”

He quickly stood up, trying to brush off what had just happened— and the internal panic. Offering Raine a hand after a good stretch, to which she took, her touch remained soft and shy.

“You gonna be okay walkn’ back? Do you want a piggyback or—”

He was abruptly cut short by a small peck being placed on his cheek; suddenly going stiff, heart racing and his face feeling like it was on fire.

“Nah, I’ll be okay! I think I can make it, gettin’ tired of sittin’ around all day anyway.”

Raine chirped, limping slightly as she started back to the swamps treeline. Timothy stood there with a wide-eyed expression, flushed and confused as he turned to watch her go. She stopped and turned to look at him when she realized she wasn’t being followed, her face just as red as his.

“You coming, Tim?”

“A— yeah!”

With that, he was at her side again. Walking along side her as the familiar grounds of the swamp greeted them under their feet. Tim walking slower than his usual self, making sure his bug could keep up as the swamp steadily grew darker.

Hi everyone,

I found an article discussing social anxiety and ADHD and autism according to this article:

Social anxiety disorder, also known as social phobia, is an anxiety disorder characterized by intense fear and anxiety in social situations.

People with SAD often experience excessive worry about being judged or scrutinized by others, and may avoid social situations altogether or endure them with extreme discomfort. This disorder can significantly impair daily functioning and negatively impact quality of life.

Autism is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder that affects communication, behavior, and social interaction. It is typically diagnosed during early childhood and can vary in support needs.

People with Autism may experience difficulties with verbal and nonverbal communication, exhibit repetitive behaviors or have limited interests, and struggle with social interactions. However, each individual with Autism is unique and may have a range of strengths and challenges.

How Are Autism And Social Anxiety Similar?

Social skills

Spending time alone

Anxiety

Difficulty building friendships

What Are The Differences?

While ASD and SAD share a lot of similarities with each other, they are distinct conditions in many ways.

The main difference is that ASD is a neurodevelopmental condition while SAD is a mental health condition.

The full article will be below if anyone wants to read it.

lin shirtless/tank top :3 ?

i swear to god, you are getting more & more creative with every ask guys 🤣

ok, this is actually adult content so i'm gonna do it like that (cause you know, it's not like you can find those picture all over the internet):

ok, some of those are fucking crazy. my personal favourites are all the pics from that complex photoshoot (one of them is my pfp) & the last one with fls guys, but also every single one where you can see his tattoo (i am a little bit obsessed). also, watch this if you still haven't.

...I was joking about Mael being mildly below average height (in gw2 at least) but @missbadafker blessed me with the height calculation post and it turns out he's 5'10", everyone else is just a tree I guess.

*audience laughter sfx at yet another bad pun*

I was also testing another thing because despite what the post says, it really seemed to me that fem! Sylvari are taller by default (taller at each respective tick) but this must be a camera zoom trick in the character creator, then. Anyway, have this cursed thing that happened when I previewed Mael as a woman.

I don't know where the random pink comes from, of all races I'd think sylvari wouldn't be big on "she's a girl! QUICK, SLAP PINK ON HER" but I guess Anet and their various bugs were feeling trollish. Also, they sheared his leaves. All his leaves. His glorious emo haircut!! That he spent so long maintaining for personal flair, symbolism and all the "being a plant version of Essek Crit Role" allegations!

So, I guess now we have the one and definite reason Mael will not transition: hair loss issues.
