While I have been on Tumblr for at least a decade as a nerd girl/nerdfighter I haven't been sharing what's been going on with me in a larger sense. I'm not sure if I'll connect up my personal Tumblr with this(so it won't look like I have followed you back but I probably have), I'll have to have a think about that as my personal Tumblr has been an oasis as I've been fighting to stay alive against ridiculous and seeming unsurmountable odds. I sum it up here in a article I wrote for the disability Alliance of British Columbia last fall

As I did in the Twitter account in their pinned tweet I will include all of the media articles that have been done so far as well as the Reddit thread that included much kindness and a lot of stuff that made me want to bang my head against a wall. Also some articles about post viral syndrome and me particularly long covid as those are the new additions to the post viral syndrome community. I don't have a lot of energy probably because of my disease but because of the dyslexia textual communication can be quite difficult for me so I'm not going to try to edit the file that I kept the media links and the general medical articles and. So I hope you can make sense of it and that all of the links still work.

I think / hope that I should be able to pin this to the top of this tumblr

In no particular order here is the link dump

What #LongCovid continues to experience is a social medical phenomena know as the **Semmelweis Reflex** —

“the metaphor for the reflex-like tendency to reject new evidence or new knowledge because it contradicts established norms, beliefs, or paradigms.” 🧵

I was introduced to this term while reading @meghanor excellent, essential book “Invisible Kingdom”

As she shared, it was named after the doctor who said physicians assisting with childbirth should wash their hands to reduce maternal mortality & was exiled from the profession

Letter From My Alexander To Me, Elizabeth (then) Schuyler 5 October 1780

I have told you, and I told you truly that I love you too much. You engross my thoughts too intirely to allow me to think of any thing else—you not only employ my mind all day; but you intrude upon my sleep. I meet you in every dream—and when I wake I cannot close my eyes again for ruminating on your sweetness. ‘Tis a pretty story indeed that I am to be thus monopolized, by a little nut-brown maid like you—and from a statesman and a soldier metamorphosed into a puny lover. I believe in my soul you are an inchantress; but I have tried in vain, if not to break, at least, to weaken the charm—you maintain your empire in spite of all my efforts—and after every new one, I make to withdraw myself from my allegiance my partial heart still returns and clings to you with increased attachment. To drop figure my lovely girl you become dearer to me every moment. I am more and more unhappy and impatient under the hard necessity that keeps me from you, and yet the prospect lengthens as I advance. …

I had hoped the middle would have given us to each other; but I now fear it will be the latter end.3 Though the period of our reunion in reality approaches it seems further off. Among other causes of uneasiness, I dread lest you should imagine, I yield too easily to the barrs that keep us asunder; but if you have such an idea you ought to banish it and reproach yourself with injustice. A spirit entering into bliss, heaven opening upon all its faculties, cannot long more ardently for the enjoyment, than I do my darling Betsey, to taste the heaven that awaits me in your bosom. Is my language too strong? It is a feeble picture of my feelings—no words can tell you how much I love and how much I long—you will only know it when wrapt in each others arms we give and take those delicious caresses which love inspires and marriage sanctifies. …

I ought at least to hear from you by every post and your last letter is as old as the middle of Sept. … You will laugh at me for consulting you about such a trifle; but I want to know, whether you would prefer my receiving the nuptial benediction in my uniform or in a different habit. It will be just as you please; so consult your whim and what you think most consistent with propriety. If you mean to follow our plan of being secretly married, the scruple ought to appear entirely your own, and you should begin to give hints of it. …

I am composing a piece, of which … I shall endeavour to prevail upon her4 to act the principal character. The title is “the way to get him, for the benefit of all single ladies who desire to be married.” You will ask her, if she has any objection to taking a part in this piece, and tell her that, if am not much mistaken in her, I am sure she will have none. For your own part, your business now is to study “the way to keep him”—which is said to be much the most difficult task of the two; though in your case I verily believe it will be an easy one, and that to succeed effectually you will only have to wish it sincerely. May I only be as successful in pleasing you, and may you be as happy as I shall ever wish to make you.

A Hamilton

July 1938: Carole Emulates Clark

July 3, 1938 – Richmond Times

Romances come and go as often as Thursday afternoons and all that glitters over a movieland luncheon table is not love. But paragraphs have to eb made, press agents must eat and lots of people like to see their names in print. So nobody minds much.

If a Hollywood romance lasts a year, you can be reasonably certain (but don’t bet too much on it) that it is real and not reel stuff. Few of them last that long. Carole Lombard and Clark Gable have been going around 18 months. There has been no indication that Clark will get a divorce so he can marry Carole.

July 4, 1938 – Philadelphia Inquirer

Recently Carole Lombard received a dozen trees for her new ranch. Among them were a Kentucky coffee tree, the gift of a Long Island City fan; a sack of black walnut tree seeds from Washington DC, and a Michigan pine from Abbotsford, Michigan.

July 4, 1938 – Cincinnati Enquirer

Hedda Hopper’s Hollywood

Carole Lombard, busy as a bee digging for angle worms, will go fishing with Clark Gable in his father’s new outboard motor boat, which Clark bought him for a birthday present.

July 4, 1938 – Des Moines Tribune

Carole Lombard is supposed to go to work Tuesday at Selznick International, but it probably will be a couple of weeks before she dons grease paint.

Carole hasn’t worked now in more than six months. That’s her own choice. She is one of the beauties most in demand here.

Her return to work will mean that she and Clark Gable will reverse positions. While Carole has been loafing Clark has been busy. Carole has visited him almost every day, sometimes sitting for hours on sets on the back lot. Clark finishes his present assignment just about the time Carole signs out at Selznick’s. 

So Clark will be the one to do the visiting. And you can bet he’ll be there to see Carole every day, too.

July 5, 1938 – Star Tribune

What was the matter with Carole Lombard the other Sunday? Carole was visiting Clark Gable. Outside his ranch she honked her horn very loudly, jumped out of the car, and, yelling some sort of gibberish, ran through the gate to his front door. She seemed in an awful hurry.

July 16, 1938 – Atlanta Constitution

Carole Lombard went to the fights last week with her special boyfriend, and the mob was so excited an entire sleeve was torn from her fur coat. “I’ll never go to a (public) fight again,” vowed Carole. 

July 16, 1938 – Star Tribune

A woman pedestrian gazes with unbelieving wonder at the man in the long shiny auto on Sunset Boulevard. “Clark Gable,” she whispers ecstatically. Mr. Gable frowns, grimaces, honks his admirer out of the way, and speeds on.

July 18, 1938 – Chattanooga Daily Times

Clark Gable pays half of his gigantic salary to Mrs. Rhea Gable, which is why it is taking him so long to collect the $400,000 he has agreed to settle on the second Mrs. Gable when they were divorced…

July 18, 1938 – The Record 

Clark Gable and Carole Lombard forgot their screen work long enough to participate in the first round-up on Leo Carrillo’s Rancho De Los Quiotes (Ranch of the Spanish Daggers) in Southern California. Gable looked less romantic than in this picture when he fell from a horse and sprained his fingers while calf roping.

July 19, 1938 – Evening Star

Clark Gable, I understand, has expressed disapproval of Carole Lombard’s new short coiffure, which makes her neck too long. So you may expect Carole to revert to the more becoming long bob. ‘Tis said that Carole wears Western clothes, and has become a complete country maid to please Mr. Gable. A girl who will do that for a man is surely capable of any sacrifice. 

July 21, 1938 – Honolulu Star

By Alexander Castro

The other night Stuart and I were in the Warner Brothers’ theater on the Boulevard when we noticed that we were sitting right next to Clark Gable and Carole Lombard! They had come in late, and, naturally enough, left early to avoid being gaped at and besieged by autograph hunters. 

July 30, 1938 – Wilkes Barre Record

A fashion magazine representative made a date with Carole Lombard to pose for a picture in the outfit she wears while skeet shooting with Clark Gable and she showed up in a blue denim shirt and khaki trousers. Startled, the fashion expert asked her who designed the outfit – Omar Kiam or Travis Banton. “Neither,” replied Miss Lombard. “It’s the Army and Navy store’s latest creation.”

What I Watched in 2022 (TV)

I was going to fill out a survey about my TV-watching habits, but then I realized...I have a seive-like brain (now more than ever, considering that I watch things almost exclusively on streaming services and have little to no idea what is even currently airing on television), and my time would be better served just organizing the list I more-or-less kept track of throughout the year and trying to make some sense of it.

The Terminal List: 1x01 (I really did mean to continue, but then Matt Barr knocked Chris Pratt Owen Grady off the top of Handsome Mountain so now we're waiting until I am back in the groove of finding this man attractive under the right circumstances)

Conclusions:

Favorite show of the year is hands-down bar-none Blood & Treasure, but Abbot Elementary is a close second. The best reality show this year is definitely The Amazing Race. And among the older shows, Maid is fantastic and very much worth your time/my leading favorite among them.

Best comfort-food sitcoms: Ghosts, United States of Al, Family Reunion, Enlisted and The Exes are all a warm delight.

Also, doesn’t qualify as a comfort-food one but Mythic Quest is surprisingly entertaining, for someone who’s never played a MMORPG in her life and whose last video game attempts were done on a PS2. I just hate the language (and Ian).

And all of the rewatches, obviously, sheer perfection. *chef’s kiss*

The Story of Robin Hood and His Merrie Men (1952)

[sushigal007]

Let’s head over to the Wish Discount Suburban Goths!

Morty: Wow. I mean, I’m right though. Morty: WOW. I am my own, separate person, with my own hopes and dreams, how very dare you.

Stella: I just wanna be friends with them, they seem really cool.

Xander: Pretty stars.

Hobby Leader: You busy? Xander: Yes. Hobby Leader: How about now?

Sandra: Ahhh glorious swimming pool. Ahhh laundry mod works.

You win some.

You lose some.

Morty: I for one think your costume is marvellous.

Maid: Hi Mr Roth! Not too busy, are you? Just gonna grab your laundry! ALL your laundry!

Rum learns to sit up. Such a smart boy. Much less stressful than his parents.

Sandra: BOW BEFORE ME, LESSER MORTALS.

Laundry mod works a little too well.

Morty: Let’s stink up these clothes too!

A little piano from Stella.

Rob the rich. Morty: ...I’m rich. Yeah, and you don’t want any more competition, right? Morty: Fair point.

And look at that, you ever got some good rep out of it.

Sandra: Your dad’s a general? Think he’d approve of these guns?

Stella: Smoochies! Oh, who’s that? Stella: No idea. Thought you knew.

Sandra’s been letting her grades slip, so I make her spend the evening catching up on that.

Then I let her play with Piper the Fourth. Sandra: Fourth? Oh did I say that haha silly me, I meant the Third, honest.

Sibling bonding. I know they’re not talking, trust me, that’s how siblings bond.

Xander: Fuck! But on the bright side, my ‘stoves get dirty from burned food’ mod works great!

And then it’s time for Sandra to head off to a glitched room in college, good luck, girl!

Stella: Daisies. Alexandra: I don’t think that’s a legal move.

Stella wanted to invite someone over, so I let her call her new best friend, Mortimer, who brought over Dina. Mortimer: Ahh, my not!finace meeting my alt!wife, what could possibly go wrong? Stella could befriend your clone!wife and invite her over too? Happily, she has not done that.

Gabriella: Please fix me. Your household is next, but OK.

Some woohoo.

Dina: Computer’s broke. :D

Hmm, might have to move the ballet barre, not sure the maid can use the secret door to get the laundry, and these slobs certainly aren’t gonna pick it up themselves.

Townie: Come on, hurry up, mama wants nosh. Who even are you?

For some reason, Xander’s feeling super energetic that night, so I sent him out to play. Sahira: Ladybirds! Xander: Uh huh, sure, excuse me, I’ve just seen the most beautiful girl in the world. Sahira: Aww! Xander: Not you.

Do you even know her? Xander: Sure do, that’s the girl of my dreams! Lol, all right then, why not!

And much to my surprise, she actually says yes! Xander: -you should’ve seen how silly her armwarmers looked with the blazer! Lucy: Mean. But you’re kinda cute, so I’ll let it slide.

Meanwhile! Erin: Dance party!

Lucy: Some weather we’re having, right? Erin: It certainly is indeed weather.

First kiss!

Lucy: I love him. I’m about 98% sure you already have a boyfriend. Lucy: I’m about 97& sure he’s already has a girlfriend, so Im keeping my options open.

Xander: Is she looking? Sure.

Weekend! Time for a family visit!

Sandra: Dad’s scarf’s broke. That’s a problem for future Sushi to deal with. Future Sushi: Done. Thanks babe, love ya.

Anyway, here’s why we invited Sandra over, it’s time for Morty’s birthday!

Xander: TOOT TOOT!

Morty: How nice, I grew up into an appropriate outfit. That’ll be the FFS clothing tool. Turns out that feature doesn’t work if you hide it in the foundation.

I moved the ballet barre out of the secret attic and turned Sandra’s old room into a ballet studio instead.

And Lucy very kindly donated a stereo for it. Lucy: Don’t tell my parents I used the rent money for that. It’s our secret. Just you, me, and my 1338 followers.

...Yeah, I really gotta tweak the hygiene settings.

Xander: WELL AT LEAST I’M CLEAN!

He then spent the rest of the morning planting vegetables.

And the round ends with Rum learning to shake. Xander: Good doggo.

I was really struggling today with working to do advocacy while also trying to navigate issues with my landlords and trying to figure out how to get a human rights case started and how to have enough time to see that through all with so many things asking energy and money of me that I don't have.

So to decompress and collect myself to get rolling I did a podcast episode. In it I talk not just about the pain and exhaustion of pushing through to get ready for the second fire inspection, but individual and collective ableism creating a situation that sends the message, in no uncertain terms, whether overt or covert, my country wants me dead. But I also talk about how for most people it's really a lack of understanding and totally unconscious. And how each person working to understand means we begin to address that larger conscious or unconscious collective ableism infecting bureaucracies, medicine, journalism, politics and the larger society

Also I just realized I passed my 44th anniversary of being post viral epstein-barr😟. Sadly still no improvements to supports or research yet. But I haven't finished fighting and with your help I will continue to as long as I can!

SHE LI ANALYSIS CAUSE I CAN!!! (THANKS FOR 50+ FOLLOWERS AND NO THERE'S NOTHING MISSING IN HERE ITS 50+)

Yo so I've reached 50 followers a long while ago and I wanted to do something big but I hesitated and didn't know what to do...I thought a lot about it and it's here. The long awaited She li analysis, I was waiting for the new chapter so I can make this. Anyways I hope you enjoy it (or maybe not?)

So from far away people wo see She li as a Bully Mo and when they learn that his family posses good amounts of money, everyone would see him as a rich brat and I wouldn't blame them, Though that's not all there's to it. it's much deeper and yes I have 5000 IQ how did you know?

Now his childhood wasn't that great looking at how he was surrounded by maids and not his parents most of the time, mostly because they were busy working and when they weren't busy doing work they would be busy arguing about things that little She li didn't know much about.

It was pretty lonely even if people would surround him be it the maids, the other adults or even other kids he wasn't getting the attention of his parents. He might've thought that he wasn't important enough for his parents to spare a moment or two to spend time with him or atleast for his parents to look at his way. He hated their noisy fights and so, like any kid who didn't want to listen to his parent's loud arguments!that might've seemed like a broken record for him at the time, he would go outside to distracte himself. I don't know how many times he had to do this to ignore the pain that his parent's loud fighting has been causing to him, and I don't know how long he spent his time doing that (probably as long as the fighting continued) but I'm pretty sure that what we saw from She Li's flashback wasn't his first time doing so. And I'm sure he was trying to inflict physical pain so he can forgot the mental pain. At that point little She Li might've felt a bit...empty because no one really seemed to genuinely care for him or spend time with him and he didn't seem to have a special relationship with anyone either, he might've felt like he wasn't a human because of all of that.... he might've been sad and angry that he can't experience love and affection perhaps he thought that it's his fault for feeling down all the time, when in reality it was his parents fault for not using the spare time they have for providing She Li with affection and quality time instead of arguing most of the time. I'm sure he felt less of person because he didn't get what he really needed as a kid. But little did She Li know that he will feel less of human the next time his parents argue loudly.

That had started with the routine of his parents fighting and She Li looking for something to distract himself with, he ended up digging for worms and I suspect that he did that for a long while that day in which might've explain the bleeding. Later on he got diagnosed with Guillain-Barre' (Ghee-Yan Bah-Yan) syndrome this syndrome is a autoimmune type, in which a persons own immune system damages the nerves causing muscle weakness or paralysis, it can cause symptoms that last from few weeks to several years however most people recover fully while some have permanent nerve damage.

His thoughts were seemingly messy I wouldn't blame him if he still thought that his parents didn't care about him, I mean it was kind of their fault for not asking about what he does when playing outside or with whom, or for the least bit leaving a maid or two to check on him from time to time. But it was that day when he met a certain person in that hospital.

It was Mo Guan Shan that he saw at the hospital. A kid who was capable of feeling pain both physical and mental, not only that but he has a caring mother who seemed to care about her kid. At that moment She Li must've felt envious, a kid whom he didn't know had everything that She li didn't, he had the ability to feel pain and suffer and on top of that he had someone who cared about him who loved him and gave him attention when he needed it the most.

Perhaps She Li thinks that if Mo Guan Shan would become a happier and a healthier person then he would be superior to She Li, because then he would have something that is far away from She Li's reach and capability.

That's why he keeps on hurting Mo over and over again whenever Mo is feeling better or even worse. Maybe She li feels superior or on the same level as Mo when he stops him from feeling truly happy and at peace with his loved ones. As if only then the gap will become bigger than it was before. Because She Li thinks that he won't be able to be the same as Mo is, I mean he might get his syndrome treated and he might be able to feel the pain (both physical and mental) but She Li isn't sure of he can actually be truly loved or if he will be capable of loving and making someone as happy. And that is why he says things like this:

Of course it's not only to make Mo feel bad (cuz like no would want to be told that they are the same as She Li is) but to also make himself feel like they are the same (be it on the same level or the same type of people) when they are not.

I do think that She Li admires Mo for how human he is and he doesn't want him to be anymore of a human he wants Mo to be the same as him, someone who can't have anyone care about him, someone who might numb out and stop being a human for their own desires and someone who can be as hurt and heartless as She Li is regarding that he is hurt inside. I also think that She Li and He tian are similar I mean both of them were not met with love and affection from their family except He Cheng tried to rub the illusion of their fathers love on He tian, though it didn't work quite well. A relationship where you have to sacrifice everything to receive approval isn't and wouldn't be ideal from He tain's perspective, as well as She Li never talk about how he felt (he most likely didn't) the pain that he got from his parents inability to raise him properly like other parents do (by loving him and spending some time with him). However I'm not blaming everything on his parents they had their reasons yet that doesn't mean that it's justified to argue outloud most of the time and pay less attention for your kid than you with your job and arguments. Also I want to make that this post isn't here to justify She Li's bad actions against other people but to just look at him as something other than a snake, to look at him as a human and to hold accountable are both as important as the other is, and I don't want She Li to just have his actions bite him back but to also learn how bad his actions are. I want him to know very well that he hurt others and I want him to feel guilty and I want him to change, remember staying ignorant can not only hurt him but everyone else but learning where he made mistakes and holding himself accountable can help everyone not only the people hurt by him, us too will highly benefit.

Hey so this is me- the present me since I don't do this all in one day (cuz I'm a lazy person) so I hope ypu enjoyed this analysis and I hope I made it clear enough that this isn't for justifieing She Li's actions but an attempt to try and understand him. Also I'm sorry cuz I made a post a long while ago about She li and I though he had a different illness than the one in the manhua and I linked a website for that illness, however I deleted the post and I apologize for the big mistake...

This is the link for She Li's actual syndrome if you want to know more about it.

Anyways this was my "Why is She Li a bitch" post- wait, shit this the wrong script...welp can't change it now I guess. Again thank you for 50+ followers stay healthy and don't be a bitch like She Li.
