Byrd: Why’re you scared of water? Levi: I’m not. Byrd: There must be a reason. Levi: Why is anyone scared of anything? Like why are you scared of the dark, or why is Wren scared of blood n’ stuff? Wren: ‘Cause it’s gross and no one’s supposed to bleed, swimming is fun. Byrd: I guess you could drown if you couldn’t swim or whatever. Levi: I think it started when I was a kid n’ almost drowned in the bath. Byrd: How? Levi: I don’t know, my mom was probably being shit-.. I barely remember. Byrd: Enough to be scared though. Levi: Apparently. [Byrd floated aimlessly on his back for a moment, thoughtfully peering at the clouds] Byrd: Dad says you’re supposed to do stuff you’re scared of or it gets worse, like he’s always turning the lights out on me or shoving our cuts n’ bruises in Wren’s face-.. in a nice way though, y’know? Levi: Is it working? Wren: Kinda. Byrd: Why don’t you just stick a foot in? Levi: No thanks. Byrd: C’mon, no one’s gonna shove you. Levi: Nope. Byrd: Pfft. Oscar: Christ, Byrd.. what the hell are you doing in there?! That cast is gonna stink. Byrd: Oh-.. oops. Oscar: Get out and put it in the sun! Oscar: Now. Byrd: I’m cominG-.. it’s getting chopped off soon anyway, right? Oscar: Yeah, and the poor doctor’s gonna pass out from your stank.

Plant Portraits

(pst- psssssst!- Hey, hey you. Yeah, you! Want to see something cool? look at this post by @hellishgayliath. It's about the characters shown here! They worked on it for a week straight, so check it out!) . . .

Hi, yes, hi, hello. Yeaaaaaah- steering away from the angst me & Helli brewed while I recover from crying. This was inspired exactly a month ago from this ask I made to Helli ask bout their oc's fav plants. I wanted to try out a new rendering style & thought this be a good opportunity + plant practice

Pico; He likes cinnamon plants/trees & likes to knaw on cinnamon sticks. So I did cinnamon plants! Specifically Cinnamomum cassia, or known as Chinese cassia, that is the most commonly sold cinnamon in North America (yes you are getting plant facts this took longer to research than to draw mainly because I like learning but that's besides the point and I wanna share knowledge) I really like how the leaves came out! Twas very fun. His plants are well maintained, healthy, & green (maybe too green lol) which shows his craft in gardening & care. Luci doesn't have teeth, so she can't really 'knaw' on things, so she didn't like trying Pico's snacks when she stole one. She was coughing on cinnamon for the next hour after. Pico laughed at her, obviously Ingenuity: the quality of being clever, original, and inventive

Bao; He likes wisteria flowers, the purple variation (my fav colour)! I loved loved LOVED coloring these plants, but it feels the most empty out of all of them (Clem is all over the place lmao) but I also kinda like it. Like it reflects their personalities this way, like he's the most upkept in society (despite his utter lack of gardening knowledge). Apparently, American wisteria is a host plant to native butterflies and moths! Add that to another reason Luci likes Bao lol. I feel like anytime she comes to the tea shop, Bao would bring her to the garden he & Pico would be working on. And everytime he's show her the plants he managed on his own they'd be drooping and dying lmao. Bao would be so confused & Luci is just unsurprised. And yes, I did think of & look at the wisteria in demon slayer Versatility: the ability to adapt or be adapted to many different functions or activities

Clem; She likes (take 3 seconds to guess) citrus fruits!! Like her name. So I of course did citrus fruits, lemons & oranges. She has my FAVORITE pose, her reaching for the fruit while juggling some in her other arm is adorable. And of course that cute face of hers! Her plants are just EVERYWHERE & is the only one to touch the ends of the canvas (that I wanted to avoid but oh well, it didn't look good otherwise). Besides, it shows her big personality and chaotic energy children have. Apparently, they're sometimes called 'Christmas oranges' because they're in season in winter months. I thought that was interesting. Does Clem like the cold, Helli or does she despise it like Pico lol? Apparently, they are also those cuties or halos oranges I use to devour as a child lol. And because of said memory, I say that Clem does too. I like to think Luci learns to share, like a child, from Clem, a said child. Luci sells back people's stuff overpriced all the time, and only shares things with Repo. She obviously isn't sharing anything with Pico & she mainly hangs out with Bao at the tea shop so she only buys things. She stole Clem's fruits in front of her once. Let's just say a bunch of sad faces and crying, not only bleed her earholes, but made her feel bad (but she'll never admit it). Does she share things now? Kindaaaaa- no. No, not at all. Only Clem & Repo Affability: the quality of being friendly and easy to talk to

aaaand my inspo board just cuz I was going to draw Vera, I really was! (I was so FRICKIN EXCITED to draw the plant with the braided stock next to the pink flower) but... one look at her head and the pose I chose, I said "No."

Bao was already troubling enough I don't need to build up hate to a character I barely know & already like by getting frustrated with their head (again). So no Vera, Helli, sorrys. Her descriptor was going to be 'nobility' btw

GO CHECK OUT HELLI'S POST IT'S SO GOOD (sad) BUT AMAZING!

Autism School in Hyderabad

Autism, formally known as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), is a complex neurodevelopmental condition that affects how a person thinks, interacts, and experiences the world. It encompasses a range of symptoms and severity levels, making each individual’s experience unique. Understanding autism and providing appropriate educational support is crucial for helping autistic children thrive. In Hyderabad, one institution stands out for its exceptional approach to autism education: Bodhi Special School.

 Autism Spectrum Disorder is characterized by difficulties in social communication, repetitive behaviors, and a narrow range of interests. The spectrum nature of autism means that individuals can present with varying levels of ability and need. While some may have significant intellectual disabilities, others may have average or above-average intelligence but still face challenges in communication and social interaction.

Autistic individuals might exhibit behaviors such as:

Repetitive Actions: Engaging in repetitive movements or routines.

Communication Challenges: Difficulty in verbal or non-verbal communication.

Sensory Sensitivities: Over- or under-sensitivity to sensory inputs like sounds, lights, or textures.

Social Interaction Difficulties: Struggles with understanding social cues and engaging in typical social interactions.

Despite these challenges, autistic individuals often have unique strengths and talents, including heightened focus, attention to detail, and creative problem -solving abilities.

Education for Autistic Children

Education is a fundamental right for all children, including those with autism. Traditional schooling environments may not always cater to the diverse needs of autistic students, making specialized educational institutions crucial. In Hyderabad, several schools and organizations are dedicated to providing tailored educational experiences for autistic children.

Specialized schools for autism offer:

Individualized Learning Plans: Customized educational strategies to meet each    child’s unique needs.

Therapeutic Support: Access to speech therapy, occupational therapy, and behavioral therapy.

Hearing Aids and Children: Special Considerations

Hearing loss can significantly impact a child's development, affecting their language acquisition, academic performance, and social interactions. Early intervention is crucial, and hearing aids play a vital role in helping children with hearing impairments. However, selecting and managing hearing aids for children requires special considerations to ensure they are as effective as possible.

Early Detection and Intervention

One of the most critical aspects of addressing hearing loss in children is early detection. Newborn hearing screening programs are essential for identifying hearing impairments shortly after birth. Early diagnosis allows for timely intervention, which is vital for language development. Hearing aids can be fitted as early as a few months old, providing infants with access to sound during a crucial period of their auditory and speech development.

Choosing the Right Hearing Aid

Selecting the appropriate hearing aid for a child involves several factors:

Type of Hearing Aids: There are different types of hearing aids, such as Behind-the-Ear (BTE), Receiver-in-the-Canal (RIC), and In-the-Ear (ITE) devices. For children, BTE hearing aids are often recommended due to their durability, ease of handling, and ability to accommodate various ear moulds as the child grows.

Degree of Hearing Loss: The severity of the child's hearing loss will determine the power and features needed in the hearing aid. Audiologists perform comprehensive hearing tests to assess the level of impairment and recommend suitable devices.

Comfort and Fit: Since children's ears are still growing, it is crucial to have hearing aids that fit well and are comfortable to wear for extended periods. Custom ear moulds may need to be regularly updated to ensure a snug fit.

Features for Children: Hearing aids for children often include special features such as feedback cancellation, directional microphones, and noise reduction technologies. Additionally, devices with Bluetooth connectivity can allow for direct streaming from electronic devices, aiding in learning and communication.

Family and Educational Support

The success of hearing aid use in children depends heavily on the support they receive from family members and educators. Parents play a key role in ensuring that the child wears their hearing aids consistently and correctly. They should also work closely with audiologists to monitor and adjust the settings of the devices as needed.

In an educational setting, teachers and staff must be aware of the child's hearing loss and understand how to accommodate their needs. This may involve using assistive listening devices, seating arrangements that favour better listening, and modifying teaching strategies to enhance communication.

Regular Monitoring and Maintenance

Children's hearing and developmental needs change over time, so regular follow-up appointments with an audiologist are essential. These appointments allow for adjustments to the hearing aids, ensuring that they continue to meet the child's needs as they grow. Regular maintenance of the devices, such as cleaning and battery checks, is also crucial for optimal performance.

Emotional and Social Considerations

Hearing loss can affect a child's self-esteem and social interactions. It's important to create an environment where the child feels comfortable and supported. Encouraging open communication about their hearing loss and providing access to support groups or counselling can help children develop a positive self-image and social skills.

Technological Advancements

Advancements in hearing aid technology continue to improve outcomes for children with hearing loss. Features such as remote programming and real-time monitoring allow audiologists and parents to make timely adjustments, ensuring that children receive the best auditory experience possible. Moreover, emerging technologies like artificial intelligence and machine learning are enhancing the adaptability and effectiveness of hearing aids.

Conclusion Hearing aids are an essential tool in supporting children with hearing loss, but selecting and managing these devices require careful consideration. Early detection, the right choice of hearing aid, family and educational support, regular monitoring, and addressing emotional and social aspects are all crucial elements in ensuring that children with hearing impairments lead fulfilling and successful lives. With the right support and technology, children with hearing loss can achieve their full potential

Every mainstream media outlet imaginable wants you to know that Israel has just re-opened the Erez border, thereby allowing aid through it for the first time since October 7. The White House released a statement saying that it’s delighted to hear this news. It’s a great improvement from previous arrangements, reports state.

What they fail to mention is that now 30% of all Palestinian children under 2 in Gaza are malnourished, that the death toll has surpassed 33k, and that the US—the same superpower that’s telling Israel to protect the civilians—has signed off billions in weapons to Israel not even a month ago.

[falesten-iw]

What makes you react to what's happening in Gaza? and What makes you care about human lives? Is it empathy, ideology, culture, religion, knowledge, or something else that compels you to feel and act?

What would push your government to stop saying, "Israel has the right to defend itself"? What would make columnists stop focusing on self defense and what the demonstrators or students are doing "wrong" and instead use their platform to pressure their government to do what's "right" to stop this ongoing genocide? When did you start caring, and when will you start acting?

Is it when you have Palestinian friends?

When Palestinian children begged for food, safety, and water?

When over 45000 Palestinians had been killed & 98000 injured ?

When left-wing political parties around the world started criticizing Israel?

When Palestinian and Israeli human rights organizations sounded the alarm for years?

When protesters took to the streets every week? Do you still hear their voices?

When human rights organizations like Amnesty International or Human Rights Watch documented the atrocities? Was 60 years of human rights violations not enough?

When journalism associations worldwide recorded an unprecedented number of journalists killed in such a short period?

When UN agencies like the World Food Program or UNRWA reported on the humanitarian disaster and worsening famine?

When aid organizations like Doctors Without Borders or the Red Cross warned of the total collapse of healthcare?

When child rights organizations like Save the Children or UNICEF constantly reported on children’s acute physical and mental health crises?

When Jewish groups like Jewish Voice for Peace declared, "Not in my name"?

When the International Criminal Court in The Hague found strong evidence of crimes against humanity and began prosecuting high-ranking officials? Are you waiting for the court to tell you act?

When your children were upset after hearing what was happening in Gaza? Did that stir your parental instincts?

When the EU's foreign policy chief, Josep Borrell, repeatedly urged Israel to stop the killings?

When your favorite artist spoke out—did that make you reflect?

When students protested at universities around the world? Does the passion of young people give you hope?

When the Pope made a statement about the situation?

When military experts reported how many bombs Israel had dropped on Gaza?

When 2.5 million people were displaced under bombardment, with nowhere to escape in Gaza—a place already called the world’s largest open-air prison even before October 7?

When your employer gave you permission to speak out?

Are you waiting for Joe Biden to say the red line has been crossed and stop sending weapons?

Or are you waiting for Donald Trump to say the magic words: "Enough is enough"?

Or for Benjamin Netanyahu to say "Oh sorry that was a mistake"?

Or are you waiting for God Almighty to come down and say, "Enough is enough"?

Or for the most extreme elements in the Israeli government to say, "Now we can stop bombing"—but will there be any Palestinians left in Gaza by then?

Or will you stop waiting and act now, driven by empathy, knowledge, and solidarity with people who are being oppressed right in fornt or your eyes?

I’ve lost over 200 family members, friends, and neighbors in this genocide. I have 24 of my family’s members and 2 orphaned children, trapped in a makeshift tent and struggling to survive in this freezing winter in Gaza. Is that not enough to move you to act? Tell me then when ?—when will your humanity compel you to step in? Please, act now and donate!

why do some disabled people get so fucking uppity about other people using aid devices. its not your business if someone or their kid is using a cane or gets cochlear implants or has a disability placard. like mind your own fucking business!!! just because YOU want to suffer without them doesnt make you morally better.

its so much worse when the bully is disabled themselves. like. you know how useful these devices are and yet you attack people for using them. what the actual fuck is wrong with you.

Hey queen. You seem v knowledgeable about pro-Palestinian charities. Would you mind making a post or giving some info on which ones are really effective and honest abt their work? I've been hearing some problematic things about UNRWA, and Save the Children seems to be doing very little (as far as I am informed). I donate to PCRF and MAP, but don't know any other, smaller orgs that may also need more awareness? Thanks ♥

hello, thanks for sending this in. so i've been trying to find smaller orgs for palestine that are specifically for helping gaza, but the issue is not much aid is being let in. PCRF is a really good org in my opinion, I'd always donate to them regardless.

There's also the Palestine Museum, which does really great cultural preservation work.

Palestine Legal is a legal aid group that helps palestinian and palestinian advocacy facing legal challenges.

Palestine Action is a direct action group that helps do disruptive protests.

Samidoun helps palestinian prisioners around the world and keeps and eye on them.

Within Our Lifetime is an NYC based palestinian led organization.

Palestinian Youth Movement is a favorite for Turtle Island led Palestinian resistance.

Palestine Feminist Collective is a Turtle Island feminist movement that works to spread culture and information.

Good Shephard Collective seems to be doing good work in Bethlehem as well.

I would mostly look for mutual aid groups for people from Gaza if you want to donate to them. Aya Ghanamah retweets mutual aid groups a lot.

I might share more groups in a second reblog after I hear back on best ways to help them.

Cheat Code #2 for accommodating disabled characters in sci-fi/fantasy:

How you aid a disability depends on if it's a new development or had always existed.

i.e.: If someone's lost their legs to a griffin biting them off last week, giving them steampunk prosthetic legs is a good aid. There's something they can't do, that they very recently could, that they need to learn to work around. The prosthetic legs still need an adjustment period to learn how to use them, but your character knows how legs should work and can figure it out more easily.

If someone lost their legs because, as a child, they wandered away from the space field trip and got partially eaten by a carnivorous plant, then it depends. Prosthetic legs can technically work, but the longer the character was without legs, the harder it'll be to re-learn how to use them. You might want to go with bionic legs for short distances, but a hover chair for daily use.

If someone was born without legs, then prosthetic legs are more hindrance than they're worth. Your character has never had legs, and has no idea how they're supposed to work.

Imagine if you're in a world of centaurs; you're given prosthetic hind legs, and now expected to be able to climb up cliffs with the grace of a mountain goat. It's a whole new skill you'd have to learn, and you would get annoyed with it very fast; how are they supposed to sync with the legs you already have? How are you supposed to balance? You can't feel anything, you don't know how much space it occupies.

Someone who's always been disabled doesn't need the thing they were born without, they need aid that lets them do what everyone else can in a way they're familiar with. If your character has always been deaf, glasses with subtitles appearing on them are infinitely more useful than aids that let them hear, because hearing when you've always had silence is going to have a steep learning curve and be ridiculously overwhelming.

Your rule of thumb?

Try to give them something they're used to.

Note: This is different with very small children, because they're already learning how to use every part of them. If a toddler in your sci-fi was born without legs, they can be taught to use bionic legs at a very young age, but it has to start early or it'll run into the problems above.
