I could've put any disorder but people seem to really hate people with down syndrome

Like I don't know how the autism community who fights autism speaks for trying to perform eugenics can ignore this- as soon as the disorder is downs or some intellectual/cognitive issue or has a physical look.

I'm so done.

( I have try my best please don't hate me T^T if that not good tell me I will try to write another think ! )

The Moonlight illuminated the artic of a pretty confy house installed in a clearing near a forest the night been clear without sound other than techno's farm animals.

Two people where in a living room the fire crackles in the fireplace in the corner letting a gentle orange light and a warm , making the room seem even more cozy and confortable. A white bear was sleeping near a couch where they where siting. Those two person where really differents one the shorter with pure white hair and Green eyes on been dule a scar covering a part of his face, he was without shirt looking at the wall, not moving a muscle If his chest wasn't moving anyone looking could have throught he was dead or at least inconscious. The other and taller was a piglin taking care of the white back having bandage in his hands.

Techno was taking care of dream wound gently with the less movement possible to not scared the other or hurt him more , even if he don't express it the piglin could see he was suffering from just a light Contact of his hands on the other skin he make sure to no stear at the scars respectful of Dream privecy over this.

While Dream just wait eyes closes that it's finish, unmoved, tired of the days without expression on his face. Techno take a long look at the other face before sight. Dream finaly open his eyes and turn a little to look at him, dream open his mouth before close it not seem to know what to says , the piglin seem to think for a moment before start talking stoping his mouvements.

"Do you know the theseus boat problem dream ?" he ask waiting.

Dream just look at him quiet, doesn't seem to want to answere the question, the pliglin sight again.

"It's about theseus and his boat" dream roll his eyes and techno smile he start again to take the bandage around Dream stomach and he wait a little more before continue.

"Like I was saying he start his periple with a boat and because he is a grec hero think have to be complicated for him wouldn't be fun other way, i will tell you his aventures in details later If you want ? To be simple it's dangerous so he have to often change piece of his boat. Also if you don't know grec boat where made of wood and have many name due of evolution from galley to biremes and triremes but we will just call it boat more easy for you ."

dream roll his eyes again a mixe of amused and anoyed whispering "nerd"

"shud up and listen I don't have finish. At some point all piece of wood of the boat have been change their no original piece anymore "

dream cut him "that not the same boat"

techno look at him a long time dream seem sudently anxious looking away, techno feel a strong need to take care of a certain duck… Later .

He concentre again on Dream before smile gently to rassure him and finish his work with the bandages.

"What make you think that not the same boat ?"

"If all old piece of the boat have been change how can you says it's the same boat ? That not possible that not the same boat they can't be the same"

dream look at the window while answering still anxious his hands playing with the shirt techno take his face gently seem Funny when we see that big scary piglin knowing as devote of the blood god killer and his hand getting the other face gently in compareon If Techno really wanted he could smatch his face in one movement with how much hurt and weak Dream is, but he don't he take his face gently to make dream look in his eyes .

" That still theseus' boat no ? This fact doesn't change ?"

He wait for an answere he doesn't get so he continu.

"We have change the wood yes but not the model it's still the boat who live theseus story so how it's isn't the same boat and why wouldn't it be his boat ?"

Dream look at him in the eyes for a long time techno continu again finishing covering his wound.

"that a debate betwin philosophes you know, some like you, are materialist and think that it's a New boat because he doesn't have the old wood and for them the identity of the boat reside in the material while other think that the same boat that still the theseus boat but honestly they're no actual answere because any boat posseded by theseus would be "theseus' boat" ."

he take a break kissing gently one of dream hand.

"what I'm trying to tell you nerd, is that you are still you. Even with those wound, even with those scar." Techno take his other hand gently.

"Sure you have live many think some good some bad and even more really bad … But that doesn't change you. You are still yourself a nerd with a Plan that you think will justify all you have done before. Who said you are attached to nothing when you seem actualy the more attached of the server."

"Chat don't get you enough clout anymore bacon ?"

Dream laught seem far more like himself then before and techno feel lighter their still his old friend here even after what happend to Pandora he stop strairing.

"Bruuuuuu let me collect my clout green teletuby "

Dream laught again and smile he make the eyes contact with the pink one and whisper.

"Thank you"

Techno smile back amused they both know he was hear him.

"Can you repeat I don't hear you teletuby"

"I say stop stairing pervert"

dream get his shirt covering his torse and get confy on the couch.

"See chat we help an old friend and that how we are treated not even a thanks techno your the best, no he Says i'm a perv that absolutly an L to dream no not E, L chat ! "

Dream laught again and techno smile.

"Food will be ready in one hour rest. Steve I don't want a move from dream and no I will not need help or If I do I will ask Phil so no excuse and you have a book right here If you don't want to sleep and you can cudle Steve he is a great cudler !"

So I'm bored so I think I'm going to share my Au of what if a question goes was in the Percy Jackson Universe

Okay few things I think all of the main seven are demigods because I think that would be fun and also Sunset the Sunset we follow in the movies and shorts is the human Sunset because that's my personal theory that you could check out here though principal Celestia is definitely her mother in this one for obvious reasons

I think I'm going to go in order of my favorites in terms of each girls Godly parent

Pinkie Pie- daughter of Dionysus, Dionysus is the god of many things one of which is fertility and Pinkie Pie has a twin sister marble, he is also the god of wine and I could see Pinky's parents being wine connoisseurs, also reproduction gets wacky win the gods are involved Pinky has three biological parents her parents that we see in the show and Dionysus, he is also the god of Celebration and Madness and that just fits Pinkie Pie perfectly, I haven't decided what Marvel got from being the daughter of Dionysus if you have suggestions let me know. I think she was coming to camp when she was 12 she started dating photoshi a year later than that they will both claim that this time so they know for a fact that they're not dating siblings, also you know for a fact that she had the lamest claiming ever Diagnosis was just like hey you my kid now go to my cabin, i don't know if she knew she was a demigod beforehand I'm kind of debating her twin sister not being a demigod and only she is but i'm not sure I'm going to keep that

Fluttershy- I honestly don't know anymore my first thought was Iris because her personality in the books is pretty similar to Fluttershy but I truly don't know I'm now thinking maybe Hermes or even Apollo, oh I wish Pan was an option I'm going to leave a pole which Godly parent do you think Fluttershy would have, in any case, I think like Pinkie Pie she has three biological parents( also Dionysus is not an option because if you could tell by my username I ship Pinkie Pie with Fluttershy I'm not making them siblings neither is Apollo because I also ship her with sunset and she's a daughter of Apollo)

I think fluttershy was coming to Camp since she was 12 i truly don't know if she knew she was a dummy God beforehand i think I would figure that out when I figure out who her Godly payment is

Sunset- this one should be obvious Apollo, she is the first person on this list to only have one mortal parent Principal Celestia who doesn't know that she's her daughter because she thinks her daughter might be dead because she did go through the portal to Equestria in this universe, she came to camp after Battle of Olympus and she definitely didn't know she was a demigod before coming to Camp she didn't know that she was originally a human

Applejack- also a daughter of Apollo, remember her archery skills in the friendship games, she is an interesting case because she was not born from cheating but she was conceived when Buttercup was already with Bright Mac that's because one of them has the ability to see through the mist I haven't decided which one and after having their first child (Big Mac)together a few years later buttercup got the attention of a God and because they both knew that he was a god Bright Mac was like yo that's a god it's not cheating I'm giving you permission to hook up with that God and then a few years later bright Mack did the same thing with Hephaestus, so yeah even though she's not biologically related to her Paul or her little sister they're still family to her Granny Smith knows none of this, she started going to Camp when she was 12 and she definitely knows she was a demigod beforehand her paw values honesty after all

Rarity- rarity is a daughter of Aphrodite and her conception actually leads to my personal head Canon for Aphrodite I think she sometimes has kids with couples because she falls in love with the love of a couple, so basically Rarity was conceived because her mom loved her mortal parent's relationship so much that she had a kid with them. I think she would be a daughter of Aphrodite because she's a hopeless romantic, personally I think she started coming to Camp when she was around 12 though I'm not quite sure if she knew she was a demigod beforehand

Twilight( the human one)- I think she's a child of Athena i haven't decided whether her biological Mortal parent is her mom in the show or her dad but because Athena's kids Are not born from a romantic love more of a purely platonic Fascination it's not cheating. I feel like my reasoning should be pretty obvious also she doesn't come to Camp until after the battle of Olympus. She doesn't know she's a demigod until she gets to camp

Rainbow Dash- daughter of Nike. In terms of Rainbow Dash's conception her dad was single when she was conceived her mom in the show is her stepmom who came into her life when she was about 3, the reason why I think her mom would be Nike because she is very competitive and very fixated on winning and Nike is literally the goddess of victory, also she came to camp after the Battle of Olympus . Rainbow doesn't know she's a demigod until she gets to camp

In this Au, the Battle of Olympus happened white before the Friendship Games and because of that the Friendship Games don't exactly happen the same way because they met the human Twilight at camp before the school yeah even began

This post made me remember the time my brother was once nearly expelled for defending himself against a teacher that called him the r-slur, simply because he didn’t understand the work and had asked for help. The only reason the school didn’t go through with it was because I confronted the teacher, with my mother’s blessing, and threatened to report him with the full backing of our doctors.

My brother is severely dyslexic, and very likely has undiagnosed autism that doctors simply will not touch, partly because of the faff on the school caused in getting his dyslexia diagnosed. That school got away with so much ill treatment of us, especially my brother, but we are nothing if not stubborn and I genuinely believe it would have been so much worse had we not had the support of my consultant, and had my brother not spent the last year of it in lockdown. To absolutely no one’s surprise, he did quite well once he was out from under their thumb.

So here I am yet again saying that if you think being a teacher gives you the “authority” to mistreat kids, if you hate kids and if you hate the disabled, then you should not be working in education and yes I will say it to your face.

Yesterday I got the highest score on my ELA diagnostic that my teacher has ever seen in her career. Today my sister left school early, crying, because she got a score below her grade level.

So I just want you all to remember:

English is fucking HARD. English is easily one of the hardest subjects at school if you aren't naturally good at it. I got lucky, I got the kind of autism that allowed me to start reading large chapter books in first grade. To a lot of people, English is really fucking hard

ESPECIALLY if you have a condition prohibiting your language skills

So if you have dyslexia, ADHD, autism, or any other learning disorder or neurodivergency that fucks with your ability to English:

You're doing great. It doesn't matter if your grades aren't wonderful. It doesn't matter if you need to search up the spelling for supposedly "easy" words. It doesn't matter if your work emails look like shit because you can't do grammar. It doesn't matter if you dislike reading because it's too hard. It doesn't matter. You're doing great.

And even if you're neurotypical and just find spelling and grammar difficult, you're still doing great!!

English is fuckin HARD y'all. People say that it's one of the hardest languages to learn. Getting a bad test score doesn't make you stupid, and it doesn't make you any lesser. You're doing great! You're fuckin smart as hell! You're amazing!!

there’s one on here currently and they’re bringing back up old controversy (jashshipping)

Yeaa I saw that. They also seem to post a bunch of CJ related things, so I might make the daily photos one since there isn't one for just CJ screenshots/photos

I only read books with pictures but not in a "jock that hates reading and thinks its for nerds" kinda way, more in like a "I have dyslexia" kinda way.

Any tips on how to deal with learning multiple languages and forgetfulness? Like M’s really wants to learn as many languages as he can, but is afraid of ending up forgetting some of them in the way, he knows that a lot of people have this fear

Forgetting a language is, as you said, a very common fear indeed. I’m actually surprised that, given that, is not more talked about or discussed.  There are many tips, blogs, and YouTube channels dedicated to learning a language, but very little on how to maintain it. 

To be honest with you, this is also one of my fear. Languages in general, and knowing quite a few of them (compared to what is the norm in my country) was always important to me. And so I spend a lot of time trying to find the perfect solution to never forgetting my languages, finding very little help from others.  

Somewhere along the way, I found that the only way *I* could prevent this from happening *to me*, was by using each language every day. The easiest way to forget a language is to never or almost never using it, so one of the best thing you could do is actually use the language as much as you can. 

However, as I soon found out, this is really hard, especially with a lot of languages. You have to keep track of all of them, plus actually manage to get all of them into your daily routine and do it in an organized way. And you have to do all of that without using one more than the other, too. It’s, putting it easily, messy, disorganized, and frustrating. But, hard does not mean impossible. And so i made a few rules for myself:

Include each language in your routine.

 I find it is easier to include them in a routine you already have, and not making a new one around the languages you want to maintain. 

So, the first step to maintaining a language would be to write down your routine. Everything that you do, including getting up, and brushing your teeth. Write down as well all your hobbies and things you do for fun in your free time. Do you read? use tumblr? watch tv or series? Do you do crochet or sew plushies? write it all down. If each day has a different routine, write the different routine for each day. 

Then, identify which activity or hobby requires or uses languages. Most of them do, i bet, even if you don’t think so at first. For example, when i first started doing this, i was still in high school and having physical education/ gym class. We mostly just ran and ran. Not much to do with language, right? Except that after thinking about it a little, i realized i always mentally counted my steps as i ran, or started making a mental list of all the things i needed to do later. That involves language, since you have to resort to choosing a language to do all that thinking on. In my case, it was Spanish, my mother tongue. 

And here is where the 3rd step comes in: Change the language you use in each activity. For example, following my example with my gym class, I identified an activity that -in my case- required a language: counting and planning my routine for that day while running. The next step to follow would be identifying the language you use the most when doing said activity and change it. In my case, as i said, it was my mother tongue, spanish. I changed the counting part to French, because i wanted to memorize better the numbers, and the planning to Portuguese. 

Do this for as many activities as you think you need. And as i said before, it is better -or maybe just easier- to change the language of an activity that you already do, than adding a new activity to your routine. This will help you actually remember that you have to do said activity and to keep consistency with both the activity and the language changing. It will also help you keep organized and not overuse one language over the others

If you need help visualizing this, some activities I have changed the language i do them in are: reading books, watching films and series, researching and reading something for school, talking to friends, thinking, counting, reading and watching tutorials for sewing or crochet, going to conferences, writing in my journal, watching videos in youtube, daydreaming, using the configuration section of several apps, doing quick searches on google, swearing, keeping track of my hearing loss, learning new skills, writing random things down, singing, looking up a definition of a word regardless of its language, talking aloud to myself, adding little notes on my drawings, planning my routine, going to class, labelling things at home, making lists for shopping, talking to my pets etc

 Include new little doable ways to use the language you want to learn/remember. 

Ok, i know i said it was easier to just change the language of an activity that you already do than adding another one to your routine. I still stand for it, especially if you have problems remembering things. But it is not bad considering adding a few small activities or habits. For example, you can start counting the steps you take in a pair of stairs or when walking, or counting the trees you go by when on the bus. You can start singing when making breakfast, and pay attention to the lyrics, or you can start watching/reading the news while you have breakfast. You can start journaling or writing in your drawings, you can join new apps or start playing video games. You can start a new blog or learn to sew, or making lists or whatever. 

My only rule for this is to start little by little and stick to doable activities. If you try to add many things to your routine AND change the language you do them in, it’s very likely you will end up overwhelmed and give up. Start low, changing things little by little. Once a thing has become part of your daily routine, add another one. 

Some things I’ve added to my routine, for example, have been going to conferences and talks related to my university career (linguistics), as well as assisting to classes and workshops that were given by visiting professors from afar. They were given in either English, portuguese or uruguayan sign language. They are not, of course, part of my daily routine, but i keep an eye on when they are making a new one, and make sure to always go. 

I’ve also made sure to make friends and keep in touch with most of my university’s exchange students, and we talk in their native language, which makes up for perfect practice. I also always make a point of going to any Deaf event or activity that is free, as well as making as many Deaf friends as i can. However, there is no need to jump right all in and go join a local language group or start taking university classes in your target language in day one. I've over a decade of experience in this and have already made my way up.

Designate days and times for each language.

Learning each language whenever you feel like it will create more trouble for you, make the forgetting worse, and make you feel overwhelmed and frustrated. A way to counter this is via a good structural learning routine. You can designate specific days to languages even if you don’t take language classes and even if you use all the languages each day.

What designating a day to a language means is just basically that, in that day, you will focus more in that language. Mondays are Sundays are for studying French, and Tuesday and Thursday for learning English grammar, etc, for example. You can even adapt this given your routine: for example, in my case Monday, Wednesday and Saturday are uruguayan sign language days, because my sign language classes are Mondays and Wednesday, and Saturdays are when most Deaf events take place. 

Assigning times will help you even if you struggle at keeping routines, too. It’s like assigning days, but instead of whole days, you make it times of the day. Instead of using or learning a language during the entire day, you can do it only in the morning, and in the afternoon you can switch to another language. All you have to do is keep that order as much as you can without switching them up. This will help keep the languages more separated in your mind and help you not mix their grammars and rules and pronunciation etc

Try avoiding learning languages that are too similar at the same time.

You can, of course, do just that, but it will probably cause much more trouble for you than learning several languages at the same time already does. If you do take up two or more languages that are too similar, try taking the second language when you already know some of the others. For example, i did study portuguese and french together, but i was already an A2 level in portuguese when i took up french. And while i was studying English thought all that time too, English was sufficiently different that i didn't struggle with it

In general, take up another language only when you already know some of the other. A2 or B1 of the cfer level chart are both good levels to start at. 

But also, you don't have to learn all the languages at the same time. You don't have to even be learning two languages at the same time. I feel like nowadays this is a thing many of us need to be remained of, alongside with "take your time learning a language". There is a huge push from society and many polyglots blogs and channels to learn a whole language in months and to learn 3 or 4 at the same time, but believe me: many of those people? don't really know as much as they say they do. Many can barely talk in the languages they claim fluency on. But regardless of that, you will learn more if you take your time learning. You will also enjoy it way more this way, and just have a more less anxious and depressed life if you take your time.

Take my word as someone that has been learning minimum two languages at the same time since they were 10yo, and reached the 4 languages at the same time by the time they were 18yo. I'm 20 now, and only actively learning 1 language, and i could cry from how much better it is this way. Just. take your time. enjoy the journey and don't try to fast speed it.

If you forgot to keep the routine ...well, then now is the best time to do it

If for some reason you forget to go to a class or to sit down and study on your own when you were supposed to do it, PLEASE, don't give yourself shit for it. Do the studying right there when you remembered. Or the next time you are supposed to, if you have/want to keep your routine. And if you end up forgetting so many classes or studying sections that you end up forgetting some (or even all!) of what you had learned... just pick up the language as soon as you can and go on. Even if it has been weeks, months, whole years. Don't think too much about it and keep studying, keep using the language. Start again as slow as you need to, but start again.

Even a little is better than nothing, and late is better than never

DO NOT FORGET TO USE YOUR MOTHER TONGUE.

Believe me, you are most at risk of dong this than you think when you are managing so many languages at once. Always use your mother tongue. Don’t just use the languages you are learning or have learned. Find little ways to include your mother tongue in your routine and/or chose a designated day of the week for using it. For example, there was a time where during each Saturday i will purposely look up Uruguayans shows and films and songs to watch and listen to to keep close to my own dialect. Try and do something like that for yours too

slamming my fists on the metaphorecal table right now

why in the name of FUCK are there not more nerrison/harriston/presner/nerriston fics on ao3. nerrison has the most because theyre obviously amazing and also not the most uncommon camp camp ship out there

but theres still so little. ive literally read all of the ones that dont include heavy angst/arent nerrison focused. IVE READ THEM ALL. AND YET. AND YET. theres nothing. theres nothing new for me to read

which is probably why im making my nerriston fic, out of spite for the lack of nerriston fics on ao3, but if any of you have a fic idea that you dont want to/cant write yourselves for any of the ships above, ill write it /srs

I feel like an idiot because I can do math moderately well but I can't remember what order things are supposed to go in, specifically with division and subtraction. Like I just don't know which number is being subtracted from which and I tend to just pick one that feels right but then it's wrong and I get so confused T-T

Okay I know a lot of people didn't like the lost hero because they were like where's Percy but please tell me that I'm not the only one who genuinely thought heroes of Olympus would be more separated from Percy Jackson and the Olympians and with genuinely surprised when Annabeth not only showed up but we're still 16 personally I thought we were going to be in the future
