"You are bleeding, when were you planning on doing something about it?!"
"I don't know, oh lord of Dor Caranthir, when I was in private perhaps? It was a careless mistake, it's shameful"
"You humans are so precious of the most trifling things, you fester so rapidly as well! You are a soldier and you were hurt, now sit down so I may stitch the wound"
"...is this not the work of the women?"
"Unless you personally wish for one of the women to attend you, I am the most skilled in needles here"
Just me having feelings over Haleth taking on the roles of soldier and chief while Caranthir acts as defender and embroiderer

Embracing Differences: Lessons We Can Learn from People with Special Needs
Shaina Tranquilino
October 19, 2023
Where individual differences are often stigmatized or overlooked, there is much to be gained by embracing diversity and learning from those who possess unique abilities. Individuals with special needs have an incredible capacity to teach us valuable life lessons that can positively impact our personal growth, relationships, and understanding of humanity as a whole. Their resilience, kindness, authenticity, and ability to find joy in the simplest things are just a few qualities that we can learn from and integrate into our lives.
1. Celebrating Resilience:
People with special needs exhibit remarkable resilience in navigating the challenges they face daily. Despite facing physical or cognitive challenges, they often display an unwavering determination to overcome obstacles. Witnessing their tenacity reminds us of the importance of perseverance and resilience in our own lives. They inspire us to confront difficulties head-on and find strength within ourselves to push forward during tough times.
2. Cultivating Compassion:
Individuals with special needs consistently demonstrate unparalleled levels of empathy and compassion towards others. Their genuine concern for the well-being of those around them serves as a reminder to treat everyone with kindness, dignity, and respect - regardless of their abilities or differences. By observing their profound empathy, we can learn to foster more inclusive communities where acceptance thrives.
3. Embracing Authenticity:
One beautiful lesson we can take away from individuals with special needs is their innate ability to embrace authenticity without judgment or pretense. They do not feel compelled to conform to societal expectations but instead radiate pure genuineness in all aspects of life. Observing this teaches us the value of being true to ourselves and encourages us to live authentically while appreciating the uniqueness in others.
4. Finding Joy in Simplicity:
Often consumed by the fast-paced nature of modern living, we tend to overlook the small moments that bring true joy and fulfillment. People with special needs often possess an extraordinary ability to find happiness in the simplest of things, reminding us that genuine joy can be found in unexpected places. Whether it is a heartfelt smile, a shared laughter, or the appreciation of nature's beauty, their ability to savor life's simple pleasures encourages us to slow down and cultivate gratitude for the little joys that surround us.
Learning from people with special needs offers us a chance to expand our perspectives, challenge preconceived notions about abilities, and foster a more inclusive society. Their resilience, compassion, authenticity, and ability to find joy in simplicity serve as powerful reminders of what truly matters in life. By embracing these lessons into our own lives, we can create compassionate communities where diversity is celebrated and differences are seen as strengths rather than limitations. Let us step forward with open hearts and minds, ready to learn from each other and build a world that embraces the power of uniqueness.
#embracing differences#inclusion matters#different not less#acceptance and understanding#learning from each other#uniquely abled

hold up im reading more about the lionfish thing and this one island in Honduras has had such a huge problem with lionfish that the measures they have taken include
• getting special exemption from the Honduran government to allow divers access to harpoons and spears which are otherwise illegal in fishing
• public campaign to teach people how to prepare and eat lionfish (apparently they are very tasty once the poisonous spines are removed) (but watch out)
• holding lionfish combination hunting competition and cookout (reportedly they killed and cooked 1,700 in a day) (someone killed 60 of them with a rubber band spear gun???)
• most recently and apparently out of desperation, the divers in charge of culling the lionfish in the Roatan Marine Park just started. feeding the lionfish they killed to sharks. bc what else are you gonna do with it
• the sharks don’t seem to notice or be affected by the poison and begin hanging out with the divers
• the sharks then were seen hunting and killing the lionfish on their own
like this is nuts to me sorry. the sharks just had to be shown “hey this is food, did you know?? you can eat these!! here try one!!” we are possibly altering an entire foodchain bc we like feeding the big ocean wolves
#lindsey shut up#i love sharks so much hhhhhhh#like of course this is gonna take a few generations of learning to have any major impact on the lionfish epidemic#but they are learning! from us and from each other!! HHHHHHSHARKS

Do As I Say, Not As I Do: A Humorous Take on Self-Advice Sabotage
Why is it that we’re all walking, talking self-help books for our friends & kids, but when it comes to ourselves, we can’t seem to crack open the first page? Let’s dive into the comical irony of being excellent advice gurus to others while being advice-averse in our own lives. Picture this: you’re the Yoda of your social circle—wise and insightful. Your best friend tells you about their…

Had the silliest idea while making breakfast.. what if Damian’s Favorite Brother is Tim, but for the Dumbest Reason...pancakes
My idea is that Tim is Damian’s favorite brother, but not for the reasons one might expect. It’s not because of Tim’s skill, his smarts, or his ability to stay three steps ahead in every fight. Nope. Damian’s real reason for favoring Tim over Dick, Jason, or even Bruce is much simpler.
It’s because Tim makes the best pancakes. Like, legendary pancakes.
Not even kidding.
One morning, Tim casually whips up a batch of pancakes in the kitchen—y’know, because Alfred’s off running errands and the rest of the family doesn’t know the first thing about breakfast beyond opening a box of cereal, and Tim's been feeding himself since he was six. So Tim steps up to the stove, and bam—fluffy, golden stacks of heaven.
Damian, who never really cared for breakfast, takes one bite of Tim’s pancakes and is sold. From that moment on, he’s obsessed.
“Drake, you will make me those pancakes again tomorrow."
And Tim just blinks, completely confused, but shrugs it off like, “Uh, sure?”
The next morning, Damian’s right there in the kitchen, bright and early, waiting for his daily dose of pancake perfection. By the third day, he’s even dragging a chair next to Tim, watching like a hawk as Tim cooks, making sure he’s using the right ingredients.
Meanwhile, the rest of the Batfamily is just like, “Really? This is the thing that bonds them?”
Tim, being Tim, just rolls with it. He doesn’t ask questions. If Damian wants pancakes, Damian gets pancakes. He’s just trying to survive his new role as “Pancake Master.”
But Damian? Oh, he’s serious about this.
Damian tells anyone who will listen that Tim is the only one who knows how to make breakfast properly. He’ll give the other brothers side-eye anytime they dare to suggest they could cook for him. Even Alfred raises an eyebrow, but Damian’s already set: Tim’s pancakes or nothing.
What’s even funnier is that when Damian gets pissed off at anyone, he refuses to eat their cooking. But Tim? Untouchable. The one person who can screw up as many times as he wants and still be in Damian’s good graces—because those pancakes? Irreplaceable.
So, while the Batfamily argues over strategy, patrols, or who gets to drive the Batmobile, Damian's priorities are clear:
"You’re all amateurs. Drake’s the only one who makes pancakes worthy of the Wayne name.”
And now, Tim’s been promoted to Damian’s favorite brother for the silliest reason imaginable. But hey, if the key to Damian’s heart is pancakes, Tim’s got that title locked down.
#tim drake#damian wayne#batfam#tim drake and damian wayne#tim makes pancakes like no other#and becomes damians favorite brother in the process#the bats can't deny that tim's pancakes are delicious but like#really? that's what made him the favorite brother?#tim learned to make pancakes from janet who was always an incredible cook#tim has a different kind of pancake batter mix for each of the bats#bruce is traditional with buttermilk pancakes#jason likes banana nut#dick prefers blueberry pancakes#tim makes himself chocolate chip pancakes#damian loves all of tims combinations but his favorite is undoubtedly vegan matcha pancakes#i was making banana pancakes when i though of this can you tell

yeah sure therapy is nice but teen soukoku is faster and a lot cheaper
#LITERALLY STILL IN SHAMBLES OVER 109 THIS IS HOW IM COPING#thinking abt how much harder teen skk hits bc that's when chuuya started using corruption and they had to learn to trust each other#like with their lives.#not ''hey dazai i'm lending you five bucks so you can get me a coke from the vending machine i trust you'll give me the change''#although i'm sure that's happened and dazai runs off with the change despite being explicitly told not to bc he's an ass#anyway despite not having mutual understanding or even sympathy for the other person they entrusted their lives to each other#also the fact that chuuya isn't likely human but so desperately wants to be and dazai is the tether to his humanity#likewise how dazai was so traumatized to the point where he couldn't feel human#but meeting chuuya made him think living was worth a shot#the parallels are paralleling#bungou stray dogs#bungo stray dogs#nakahara chuuya#chuuya nakahara#soukoku#skk#lotus draws

what fear a man like you brings upon a woman like me (please don’t look at me)
#mouthwashing#art#anya mouthwashing#anya#illustration#artists on tumblr#fanart#mouthwashing fanart#lyrics from ptolomaea by ethel cain#abort that thang anya#i played the funny game#i have many thoughts. number one being i think we need to learn to not fandomify every piece of media#like yes please draw fanart and have fun and stuff#but maybe interact with the characters that are abusers and abuser apologists a little more carefully!#specifically curly. lots of people woobify him when hes an enabler#obviously not a bad person inherently but a lot more nuanced than it seems. i dont really like seeing anya x curly art#he took away her autonomy in the game after she told him abt jimmy. i think they cared about each other but its deeper than surface level#anyway good game. yeah

Not a day goes by where I do not think about the advent of medicine like PrEP and wonder just what the people - especially queer people - who passed from HIV/AIDs during the AIDs crisis would think
And then, I read this survivor's testimony and it just makes me emotional. I think this is the closest answer we have. HIV has changed, and we must always remember the people who didn't see that change before it happened.
#gay#queer#lgbt#lgbtq#described images#image description in alt#i do try to learn from older queer people about this tome period because i wasn't around for it#but i always wondered what the people who didn't make it would have thought of where we are now#there's this weird grief and celebration because i am so glad we are where we are. i just wish everybody cpuld have seen this#this is why it's so important to learn from each other about everything#it takes a village to create community#i have been thinking about that twitter post at LEAST once a month since i first saw it#very complex feelings on this one folks#there is so much left to learn i think but this just hits me in a specific way

I was planning on making almost 7 pages but with some help from friends I decided to cut it down a lot#i’ve also really been wanting to solidify all of their pronouns for a while now but couldn’t find a suitable time#anyways…I still have some vacation time planned so the next update will also be somewhat delayed#thanks to all those who are still loving the story#much love#bread#art#deltarune#deltarune chara timeline#chara#Asriel#Kris#my art

Apologies, I’m justifiably livid and will be for… who knows how long.
Before I can find a way to put that to good use, here’s an equally angry sketch.
Rage against the dying of the light.
#sketchbook#work in progress#traditional art#common loon#Gavia immer#avian#wings#yes it’s been a week and the rage will burn on#feels like I’ve been gaslit my whole life about human nature in this country#there aren’t words I can reasonably share but use your imagination#anyway don’t forget to punch a fascist#since we are incapable of learning from ANYTHING#my home state will forever be dead to me so I’m grateful to live in MN#good luck out there we gotta show up for each other#throws democracy in trash because I guess we weren’t wanting it? the fuck?#don’t tell me to stay calm rage is my element#magats get fucked my art isn’t for you

How to Walk Your Talk: Practicing What We Preach in Parenting and Personal Growth
In my previous blog (check it out here if you missed it), we explored the humorous contradiction of being excellent advice dispensers to others while often ignoring that same advice in our own lives. Here are some playful yet effective tips on how we might actually start taking our own advice and begin to bridge the gap between what we say and what we do. We’ll tackle this in two parts; first,…
