Great news for uninsured adults in the USA who want a COVID-19 booster! It now appears that ALL CVS locations are now active participants in the Bridge Access Program. The Bridge Access Program gives out free Covid-19 vaccinations to 18+ adults who otherwise can't afford one, so if you have a CVS near you, please go get one! For others who don't have a CVS near them, please go to vaccines.gov, click on "Find Covid-19 vaccines", fill out which vaccines you prefer (you can mix different vaccines if you have to so i reccomend just marking all of them for the age groups you need), and when the next page loads mark the "Bridge Access Program Participant" option to see only locations that are Bridge Access Program participants. Hopefully, other places that aren't CVS will start participating soon, so just check back every so often to see if there are any updates. The CDC Bridge Access Program website also has more details on what locations will be participating, but only CVS is appearing as an active participant on the vaccines.gov location finder at the moment.
#covid19#covid#coronavirus#vaccines#covid vaccine#bridge access program#CDC#signal boost#please share#coronavirus vaccine#covid19 vaccine#covid 19 vaccine#novavax#moderna#pfizer#also interesting side note but i havent been able to find any vaccine other than novavax near me#perhaps this is just a regional thing or maybe novavax is cheaper to make so those are the most common?#anyway thats why i made sure to tell people its okay to mix up because im going to have to bc i got moderna every other time lol#mayyybe other vaccines will become available in the future??? but ive had close family catch covid left and right so im not waiting#also does anyone know why the bridge program only bridges access to 18 or older individuals?#like i knew the gov didnt care about children but god damn lmao

Edit since a lot of people seem confused - your "real" name is the name that you want to be referred to in real life. It doesn't have to be your legal name. So if you're trans and you have a different name to whats on your birth certificate, even if not many people call you by the name, it still counts as your real name.
Edit 2 : Holy shit guys please stop reblogging this post my poor inbox im getting like 20 notifs an hour asjfhkajshdkh /lh /srs
#FUN FACT : charlie isnt my real name :]#i decided to go with the name charlie because i didnt wanna use my real name and i like the name charlie#my parents were gonna call me charlie when i was born but didnt in the end#i dont really know why i dont just tell you lot my real name because its a super common name#another thing that using a diff name online has caused is me seeing “charlie” almost as a different person#theres “[wearegonnapretendiputmyrealnamehere]” and then theres “Charlie” and they are two different people in my mind#idk aksjffhkajsshdka#anyways this is the second poll ive made today what is my deal with polls#i should make a seperate poll tag for all my fucking polls that i make#I MAKE A LOT#ill tag all my polls when i think of a good name lol#anyways woah i got a bit rambly there#did i make a whole ass poll just because i thought you might find it interesting that my real name wasnt charlie?#yes. yes i did.#(DO NOT take this as me not wanting you lot to call me charlie i would prefer you use that name over anything else lol)#polls#tumblr polls#random polls

Okay but it's super interesting how
Din = Power = Ganondorf
Naryu = Wisdom = Zelda
Farore = Courage = Link.
Because Din, in the hylian creation myth, created the physical world. Naryu then created the laws - gravity, time, etc. And Farore finally created life - plants and people.
Din created the body, naryu the mind, Farore the soul.
And the triforce and its wielders so perfectly reflect that.
Ganon is physical power, he is big and intimidating and he breaks things. He is cunning and determined, but that's not what he focuses on. He is might makes right.
Zelda is wisdom and cleverness. She is stall tactics and information and team work. She is a powerful mage with a spine of steel, but that's not how she'll win. She is the pen being mightier than the sword.
Link is courage and persistence. He is the wild card sneaking behind enemy ranks, always moving, plunging into terrifying situations head first. He's a phenomenal fighter with a keen wit, but that's not what will get him through his challenges. He is bravery not being the absence of fear but the triumph over it.
They sit in perfect parallels to each other.
And ganon is reborn through his body - his resurrection is immortality. No matter how low he is cast, as long as he has a body he can claw his way back. He can cling to his power, build it ever higher.
Zelda is reborn through the magic of her bloodline. It's the accumulated knowledge handed down for generations, the unique power she must master, the skills she must develop to survive and get her kingdom out the other side intact. Even her name, the knowledge of herself, is handed down from all the way from the very first. Her ancestors knowledge of her future presence, her stability, is what gives her the edge.
Link is reborn in spirit. He is not bound by flesh or blood. Just like his wanderlust soul he can reappear in any time or place. His variation, his unpredictability, is exactly how he fights. It's what makes him so hard to pin down.
Ganons need to build strength means he can't chase after link. Links impulsiveness means zelda can outwit him. Zeldas stationary predictability means she's an easy target for ganon.
But the other direction?
Fire melts ice, ice redirects lightning, lightning burns fire.
And that's the very essence of the triforce.
#It's little details spread across the games like this that just makes it work so WELL it's SO COOL#They're all great at all parts of the triforce but they CHOOSE to focus on the path most meaningful to them#And that's literally reflected in their unique cycles of reincarnation isn't that just AMAZING#And that's why the team up is so important! If they were all working against each other they'd be locked spinning their wheels#If zelda and ganon teamed up link would immediately die and if link and ganon teamed up zelda would instantly perish#It's the link zelda team up that means ganon is the one who kicks it#Also the elemental thing was cool but they do jump around a bit. Like wind is there half the time#In botk the gerudo have lightning and the goron have fire. Farosh still has lightning tho and dinraal fire#In ss lanaryu was the lightning and faron had water like its all over the place thematically. And that's when it's only 3!#Don't even get me started on the 5/7 lots notankyu#But that's the most common group and it's also thematically accurate#Fire being the only one able to self perpetuate with fuel. Can be banked up again. Ice compresses with time but needs the right environment#Lightning go boom 👍 you can feel the static in the air but you don't know when/where it'll strike and then it's all over#Like fr it's hilarious zelda and ganon are playing the long game and link runs past eats all the pieces and while ganons yelling after him#Zelda checkmates his king. And nobody can prove she wasn't cheating because nobody was looking lmao#Ah the duality of metaphors#ANYWAY isn't that so neat???#Reason no.372 why rhoam was a terrible king he didn't just screw up he did it ✨thematically✨#If link had been allowed to run off and get dirty and if zelda was allowed to study her interest (like post kingdom fall FOR EXAMPLE)#They'd have won (like aoc) but nooooooo. I've already made a post (or 3) about it lmao I'll be quiet now#loz#legend of zelda#botw#triforce#loz link#the legend of zelda#zelda#loz botw#ganondorf#loz ganon

Shen Yuan getting transported into pidw isn't "the system punishing him for being a lazy internet hater," but instead representative of "step 1 of the creative process: getting so mad at something you decide to go write your own fucking book" in this essay I will
#svsss#scum villian self saving system#shen qingqiu#shen yuan#the fact that people think scum villain#-a series that examines and criticizes common tropes in fiction-#is somehow against criticism or being a little hater is wild to me#especially since shen qingqiu never gets punished for being a hater#heck- he's still a little hater by the end of the series#he mostly gets punished for treating life like a play and like he and the people around him are characters#(or in other words- he suffers for denying his own wants and emotions and his own sense of empathy)#I think some of y'all underestimate how much writing/art is inspired by creaters being little haters#like example off the top of my head-#the author of Iron Widow has been pretty vocal about the book being inspired by their hatred of Darling in the Franxx#I think my interpretation of Shen Yuan's transmigration is also supported by the fact that this series is an examines writing processes#side note- though i understand why people say Shen Yuan is lazy and think its a valid take it still doesnt sit right with me#i am probably biased because my own experiences with chronic pain and depression and isolation#but ya- i dont think Shen Yuan is lazy so much as he is deeply lonely and feels purposeless after denying parts of himself for 20ish years#like yall remember the online fandom boom from covid right?#being stuck completely alone in bed while feeling like shit for 20 days straight does shit to your brain#the fact that no one came to check on him + he wasn't exactly upset about leaving anyone behind supports the isolation interpretation too#+in the skinner demon arc he describes his life of being a faker/inability to stop being a faker now that he's Shen Qingqiu#as “so bland he's tempted to throw salt on himself” and “all he could do is lay around and wait for death” (<-paraphrasing)#bro wants to be doing stuff but is stuck in paralysis from repeatedly following scrips made by other people#another point on “Shen Yuan isn’t lazy” is just the sheer amount of studying that man does#also he did graduate college- how lazy can he really be#he doesnt know what hes doing but he at least tries to actively train his students#and he actually works on improving his own cultivation + spends quite a bit of time preping the mushroom body thing#+he's experiencing bouts of debilitating chronic pain throughout all this#but ya tldr: Shen Yuan's transmigration is an encouragement to write and not a punishment and also i dont think its fair to call him lazy

I just realized I never posted photos of this really pretty harvestman i came across a while back. Note the green pedipalps and the dark and light spots on its back.
#opiliones#arachnids#chelicerata#bugs#harvestman#bugblr#the light spots were a very light green iirc (it's been a while) but they just look white here#there's a photoset of a really cool harvestman going around and it reminded me of this one and i realized i never posted these pics#spider#(ik they arent spiders but i'm tagging it as that for blacklist purposes#bc i imagine that someone who's really scared of spiders probably doesnt care that actually opiliones are not spiders just close relatives)#i think its so cool how i didnt even know opiliones were a thing until a couple of years ago and now i see them all the time#turns out they're pretty common around here#(not that i never saw them before i mustve just assumed they were spiders)#theyre usually not as pretty as this one though#most of the ones i see are just black or dark brown#also i have a massive backlog of pictures ive never posted of bugs and other nature stuff#my stuff#my posts#outside tag#nature

peppino and noise character studies
in this essay i will explain why i am the only one to understand these characters
#pizza tower#peppino spaghetti#peppino#the noise#noise pizza tower#sklart#ive been meaning to make a character study on these two for a bit#unfortunately something absurdley petty on my end motivated me to do so#genuinely it is a huge pet peeve when people give noise the twirly stache out of costume#not only does it hinder the fact that pep and noise are so visually opposite and have like 2 things in common that way#that being their skin is white and they have black hair#but it also removes another visual indicator of making The Noise and Theodore different people#noise is a character he plays#sure some aspects of said character show in theo#like his shit eating tendencies and his pettiness#but theyre Different#if an au has it then thats fine i think#and the last thing i want is people using this as a way to harass artists#but oouughhh KEEP THE FAKE STACHE ITS A PART OF THE BRILLIANT CHARACTET DESIGN#MAKING IT REAL WEAKENS THE CONTRAST#AAHHHH!!!#THE THINGS THEYRE SUPPOSED TO HAVE IN COMMON IS PERSONALITY!!!#THEYRE BOTH PETTY LOSERS!!!#THEY BOTH PROVOKE EACH OTHER CONSTANTLY#AAAHHH!!!#thank you for coming to my ted talk#as an undertale fandom vet its my biggest pet peeve when people misunderstand characters i like#no hate to anyone ever. do what you want forever#but also Only I Get These Guys#one day i will make an analysis of the similarities they DO share

saw a take so fucking rancid on twitter i almost deleted the entire app from my phone jesus fucking christ

first of all ao3 is an archive site. this is like going to the library and saying "oh i dont like this" on every piece of media you find that you dislike and thinking they should be stamped with some sort of a marker just cause you didnt like it
you can always click back and leave. fic writers owe you nothing to explain themselves and their creations. if they have mistagged or miscategorized fics, then i understand, however there are report tools for that instead of yelling at the artist tbh
im not saying free works arent necessarily above criticism. but this is just. fucking wild. its common courtesy to just enjoy stuff (or fucking leave if you dont, the back button is free) and if the artist specifically asks for critiques, then give one - constructive that is, shitting all over someones work is not proper criticism, mind you
i just find it fucking wild people are treating art and archive sites as social media these days like this and everything needs to be policed and ~catered to the algorithm~ like. no. ao3 doesnt have an algorithm. you should be able to fucking tell what you like and what you dont like and steer away from that kind of content and let people fucking be with their art. they dont owe you anything (except trigger warnings i'd argue, but i know some people disagree with that as well for some reason), and imagine how much more energy you'd have if you only engaged with things you liked and spent time looking at instead of going to places where you dont enjoy yourself. let alone spending time telling other people you dont enjoy what they enjoy. what a fucking life
#like what the fuck#where is the common courtesy of fandoms these days im just fucking asking. its ridiculous#the back button is free. shutting your fucking mouth is free. constructive criticism when people ask for it is nice but only then#these are fucking basic level fandom engagement things#am i old or are people just this fucking awful now that these guidelines dont exist anymore#im just. ough#sorry i had to get this out. idk as someone who has never left unsolicited advice for anyone and never gotten it back it just#it fucking grinds me that people are like this now. like fucking wow#ive been here for almost two decades soon and i still know how to behave. yall better fucking learn#im gonna go back to video game sorry i really needed to yell for a hot fucking second#if you choose to reblog this dont fucking clown on it okay. god#night is an absolute mess on main

I love Prof AU’s making Viktor that prof that you hope doesnt make it to class every morning but I feel like he’s not that guy. Yes, he’s not completely chillaxed like I bet Jayce is, but he’s also hyperaware of making sure his students pass so they can make it in Piltover, especially Zaunite kids.
Not hard-ass teacher and not softie like Jayce but still showing that life is hard and you have to be 10x better than Piltovians to make it here. Like office hours are super accessible, has a psychology minor so he can re-explain in an accessible way to different brain types. High passing rate but he doesnt like when people dont try 1000%.
I lowkey think that between the both of them, Jayce is the one that has a hard time simplifying his explanations? Like he’ll make jumps that seemingly have no connection because he forgets to explain how he got there (ADHD thing)
#fanfiction#ao3#arcane#viktor arcane#jayce talis#jayce arcane#jayvik#man my hobby is projecting minority struggles onto viktor#leave me alone im a teacher#i cant help it#professor au#this is me bonding with my neurodivergent and POC teachers in school oopsie#jayvik ND headcanon#*sigh* autistic viktor and ADHD Jayce#funniest thing though is Viktor is my kinda autistic where literally everyone has diagnosed me but a psychologist#its common knowledge that I am but he gives me undoagnosed but aware vibes

'Nobody cares abt the smallfolk😒' we've spent the past 6 novels seeing the injustice and brutality commited against the smallfolk by the nobility through multiple pov characters multiple times over and over again
#did u read affc brienne chapters w ur eyes closed. did u not read any arya or jon povs period. what#asoiaf#chaos reads#idk how many times grrm can drive the point home that while the nobles play their games its the smallfolk who suffer#sorry if u cant see that could never be me tho#an annoyingly common idea i fear. its one thing to be a fan of the royal families its another to miss the point#valyrianscrolls#a song of ice and fire

"Jason just needs to see things from his family's perspective and understand how much they love him (despite them never actually communicating or showing him through their actions)" is out. "The batfamily putting a single bit of effort into understanding Jason and reconciling with him on his own terms" is in.
#my dc posting#jason todd#dc#like genuinely i am sooo tired of the first#like yes yes jason is a stupid unstable idiot who misunderstands everything and somehow comes to the most stupid#wrong conclusions ever and he just needs to see things from his family's perspective#and learn how much they loved and missed him when he was dead WHATEVERRR can you shut uppp#cus yknow how many times i've read fic of any of the batfam actually holding jason's opinion as valid or even doing silly lil small things#like 'not horribly invading his privacy' and 'actually respecting his very reasonable boundaries'? VERY rarely.#when will i get to read a fic where jason's extremely valid&understandable complaints and critiques are actually taken to heart and#anyone puts any effort into actually improving themselves and finding a middle ground#but no sorry i forgot. jason's just a fucking idiot who misreads and misunderstands everything his family does bc he's not a goddamn mind#reader who can somehow understand every miniscule twitch of batman's cape#if my dad prioritized my abuser over me i'd be very valid in concluding he might not care for me that much actually </3#i stop being sympathetic to bruce's issues the moment they're used as an excuse for him to mistreat his kids sorryyy#sorry i'm in a pissy mood rn. this isn't directed at any one specific person i'm just annoyed how common this is. it's a whole pattern.#its own genre of jason fic with no warning for it

ok guys. i have to be so real with you. luke saying annabeth is like a little sister to him was not just added for the tv show he says that in the book ("she would never... i mean, she's like a little sister to me" (page 223))
#personally i have never understood why people think that the scene in last olympian is luke saying he loves annabeth romantically#'did you love me' can mean so many things and also luke saying annabeths his lil sister doesnt necessarily mean annabeth doesnt have a crush#its extremely common for little kids to crush on people older than them#like i wouldnt be surprised if they drop that plotline but to me its always been deeper than 'annabeth has a crush on luke'#am i being a lil pedantic and petty. perhaps#percy jackson#mine#pjo tv#pjo#luke castellan#annabeth chase

i dont relate a lot to straight women in general but i especially dont related to the type of straight women that obsess for months at a time over a man who does not like them and has nothing of note going on. just some guy. like what are we doing
#zero.txt#in general if someone does not like me im OUTTA there. i did that one time and im never doing it again#but it still was not for a man#like. not a guy they even love or anything. just some guy who actively ignores them#its just baffling. i get like male validation is a thing but its not even like you're being validated at that point#why waste your own time. and its always some of the most beautiful and interesting women#youve ever seen acting like this. like whats happening#its so common too. its genuinely hard for me to befriend really straight women bc of it like we're just not on the same page

Swindle bug is attracted to money (probably something to do with some of the chemicals/inks/metals used to make it) but he is very much drawn to large sources of money.
Whoever finds swindle cybug most likely found him sleeping and near nesting in the household change box surrounded in loose and rolled coins. Probably using some of the coin wrappers for a sheet and bed.
bug swindle sleeping on a bed of coins with a single dollar note as a blanket...................
yknow those stories where people befriend local ravens/crows/magpies and they end up trading the humans shiny things and/or money in exchange for food/other stuff? that, but swindle does the opposite and steals peoples items and they pay him to get them back whfjfhdnenfbmd
#for some reason i feel like swindle has butterfly vibes even though it doesnt fit in literally any other way#logically he'd be also. a beetle. but purely vibe wise.........#swindle gets into the swear jar#another thing that does not exist for me#loose and rolled cpins#i know they Exist but its not a common thing where i live#my moms told me abt them though Lmao#velwy.txt#inbox#anon#cybug extras#HDJFKDJA WAIT#you open your wallet and instead of a moth flying out because its empty its just swindle.#cybug swindle

ahhhh yes. mal du pays my beloved.
#isat#in stars and time#mal du pays#isat spoilers#technically#anyways this is a super specific thing to my thoughts but the basic idea is that i have a lot of headcanons about sif being a system#for a lotta reasons really. projection and source memories are a large one#ive named mal du pays lucius in my brain because its a common name in guadeloupe I THINK and well. thats the original insp for the island#its up to interpretation now buuuuuuut.....ya know. anyways i have many thoughts on sif system and lucius in particular#being what feels like a manifestation of all their negative emotions and symptoms#BUT BUT BUT#i also imagine theyre the first which is why their name is lucius to me. og host. sif is the split turned host. teehee#so naturally deep down they have a lot of their connection to the island#soooooooo. feelings ensue. yadda yadda i am typing too much#im so normal
