~Distracted? Me?~
What do you mean I seem distracted? I... I tied you tighter than usual? Sorry. Did it hurt? I just got nervous you'd try to- right... You haven't tried to escape for over 5 months now. You like it when I hold you like this? Maybe I could... N-Never mind. Nothing, what I was gonna say was weird.
Do you maybe wanna- Oh, you feel so soft. No, not in like a- I didn't mean- When you hugged me I noticed how soft your skin was. Your... you feel so nice... Oh! Sorry, I didn't mean to hold you that long. Fuck... I'm a mess tonight. Sorry, maybe I might need to... 
Actually... Let me hold you a little longer. 
Don't... Move... I said, don’t move. Let me hold you. I don't care that you can't breathe. Being around you makes me stop breathing and I think it's only fair that you know what it feels like. When I'm around you, I can't focus on anything. I can't think straight. You make me feel so... Never mind. Sorry I'm a little... Just let me hold you. I love you. I love you so much. 
I love you.

genuinely going to personally just start replacing any transx terms i relate to with my own term, Ontohope.
Not because im anti all transx terms, im very neutral leaning pro on all nonharmful ones, but because honestly? 1 i dont like the sound, transx sounds so clunky to me... 2 the community itself holds alot of negative memories with me, and unfortunately does trigger me due to that and 3 i think it's a better descriptor for how it feels to us,
so take a nonofficial coining post, I might make another post later on that includes a flag, but here's a little definition
Ontohope - An Identity referring to the hoping/longing of something your being - that being your physical body, or your identity - does not have. This can be nearly anything.
Ontohope does not claim the user IS that thing, however experiences a longing to be, and in cases where appropriate, would like to transition to such thing. Ontohope also supports all types of dysphoria, but not all types of transitions.
Ontohope doesn't include folk who want to transition to things that would be harmful for them or others, but instead is pro-healing from such feelings, and finding alternatives to relieve dysphoria. ( example . Cane User Ontohope would be reccomended to getting a walking stick, preferably bought from a thrift store/nonmedical shop, but discouraged taking medical resources nor harming themselves to transition ).
X Ontohope = used to specify what the user long for. ( Example . We are Love Ontohope, we hold a longing to be the concept of love. )
im very curious as to what others thing of this, so feel free to tell me if you like it 💕
I will add Transid folk can interact and even use these terms ofcourse, however do be aware we hold bad memories when it comes to your community, and we block freely. Though we do love y'all despite ❤️.

in the same vein as that recent terror post. season 2 should have just been crew shenanigans. like yeah we all died and it was horrible but before things got crazy we did some wild shit to keep from being bored
also the episodes should absolutely have the same emotional depth and bandwidth and punch
major points:
-james fitzjames and dundy historically accurate pillowfight
-george hodgson practicing an instrument (woodwind?) and driving the rest of them bananas. maybe people start hiding his clarinet or w/e in increasingly weird hard to find places
- peddie and the ‘where the hell have all of our ointment and oils and lubricants gone’ adventure (spoiler: theyve been used for distinctly nonmedical purposes)
- billy gibson and the stewards versus endless laundry. maybe they have a minor revolt about it
- chefs diggle and chefs wall cookoff contest
- cornelius hickey tries to enjoy his day off and shirking his work only to be roped into stupid menial stuff and unable to escape (jopson et al know what they’re doing)
- irvings watercolors and singing classes keep going terribly wrong
- a day in the life of: Fagin the cat, Neptune the dog, Jacko the capuchin
- please feel free to reblog with your own ideas these are cute to think about

Please, block sysmeds whenever you encounter them.
Sysmedicalism is an unsafe ideology, just like transmedicalism.
Nonmedical plural or plural adjacent experiences can be found throughout human history. Socrates had a friendly daimon. The renowned poets in Fernando Pessoa called themselves a multitude.
The medicalization of plural spectrum experiences is a much younger phenomenon than the experience of multiple entities in one body.
Please block sysmeds. Don't debate them. Don't feed the algorithm. Their entire ideology is based on invalidating others' internal experiences. They're wrong. There's already plenty of posts showing why they're wrong. Block them.

Rolan's lisp headcanons:
Inspired by this post [alt]
A/N: I am not a doctor. I am not claiming that Rolan's voice actor has a lisp IRL, nor am I speculating on the causes of his lisp IF he has one, this post is nothing more than me reaching for angst for one of my blorbo's. Does Rolan have a lisp in-game? It sounds like he does to me, but maybe he doesn't have a lisp and that's just how his accent sounds to my uncultured US American yee-haw ears. --- This specific post is not a lore breakdown, it is pure speculation and conjecture. Some actual lore-breakdowns are linked to provide the canon sources that led me to these headcanons. I posited the information below as though it is factual because it is true for my headcanons, not because it is actually canon.
Content: Angst, a nonmedical-professional speculating on medical things.
TW: physical trauma, brain/head injury, anxiety/stress, child abuse, species-targeted violence*, orphans, homelessness, real-world parallels to discrimination.
*A/N: I am taking a page from WotC and using the term "species" instead of "race" because of the real world connotations that "race" has. And frankly using real-world terms like "racially targeted violence" when discussing a fictional world seems disrespectful to the very real people who must contend with it in their actual lives. And such terms hit too close to home— I'm ethnically ambiguous and pale enough that I don't have to worry about racially motivated violence in my day-to-day life, but many of my family members and loved ones don't have that privilege.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A/N: (Hard facts are in green, information bookended by green * is info that I'm fairly certain is factual— everything else is headcanon.)
● (Section 1) Possible reasons why Rolan has a lisp:
Rolan was was born with an articulation disorder:
Rolan's speech impairment was much more pronounced (pun unintended) when he was younger.
He taught himself how to speak Common despite his disability because he wanted to be a wizard, who needs to be able to properly pronounce the verbal components of a spell, and because he was severely bullied about it as a child— as it was yet another thing that othered him.
---
Rolan has a forked tongue that makes it difficult for him to speak Common:
(A tiefling specific physical reason why he has trouble speaking.)
A/N: (I don't think that any of the tiefling character models in game have a forked tongue. But based on what I know about tieflings, at least some of them should have a partially or fully forked tongue.)
"The speech of subjects with bifurcated tongues, while intelligible, shows a higher proportion of perceptibly atypical fricatives and significantly greater variance than seen in the control group." Source *Translated into layman's terms: While having a spilt tongue makes it noticeably harder to clearly enunciate and correctly pronounce words, people with a forked tongue are still able to be understood when speaking.*
Keep in mind that the test subjects in the above study were adults who had already learned how to speak. They already knew where and how to position their tongue when speaking, they just needed to adapt to speaking with their newly forked tongue.
Rolan had no one to teach him how to speak common with his naturally forked tongue.
A forked tongue is required to properly speak Infernal , so his lisp serves as yet another reminder of his infernal heritage.
---
It was caused by an improperly healed injury:
Unfortunately, prejudice against tieflings is very common in the realms. *Rolan grew up in* Elturel, a city that tolerated tieflings better than most (until the Decent into Avernus). *A combination of moral superiority and* strict laws enforced by the Hellriders meant that Elturel had a very low crime rate.
In a city where cursing in public could get one into legal trouble, who could ruffians take their aggression out on without penalty? Street children, specifically tiefling street children. Without any adults to look after or protect them, many orphaned/abandoned tiefling children have to resort to stealing to survive (like Mol)— which unfortunately feeds into the stereotype of tieflings being criminals.
Committing a crime against tiefling urchin would be easy to get away with. Because who is the city guard going to believe— a purportedly good and upstanding citizen who was simply defending themselves, or a gamin devil-kin thief?
Before descending into the hells overtly hateful prejudice against tieflings was kept behind closed doors and away from polite company— it would be uncouth to be openly intolerant. The holier-than-thou people of Elturel looked the other way when injustices were committed against tieflings.
After Elturel was retuned from the hells openly displaying anti-tiefling sentiments became socially acceptable and widespread amongst the non-tiefling populace of the city. *Before the tieflings were banished violence against them had dramatically increased in Elturel. (Which sadly meant that the general levels of violence tieflings faced in Elturel now matched Faerûn as a whole.)*
Rolan was abandoned by his human parents because he was born a tiefling. Even if Rolan wasn't a street urchin and had instead been taken in by an orphanage or a temple; his prospects there weren't much better, maybe even worse, than being on the streets. (Rolan was, at some point, thankfully adopted by Cal and Lia's mother.)
Rolan would have suffered because he is a tiefling— either at the hands of the orphanage's/temple's care-takers and/or from the other unwanted children (Rolan is intelligent and magically gifted, jealousy is a hell of a motivator for school-yard bullies), or from criminals/assholes who wanted an easy target, or all of the above.
All of this to say: Rolan was, likely repeatedly, subjected to species-motivated physical violence when he was a child, causing him to receive an injury that never properly healed or that permanently damaged a portion of his brain that controls speech/speaking.
"Neurological disorders, such as stroke, brain injury, or dysarthria, can affect the brain regions and neural pathways responsible for speech production. A disruption in the neurological pathways can lead to difficulties coordinating and controlling the muscles involved in speech, including those of the tongue and lips. As a result, individuals may struggle to produce specific sounds correctly, potentially manifesting as a lisp." Source "Dysarthria can be caused by conditions that make it hard to move the muscles in the mouth, face or upper respiratory system... [which] control speech. Conditions that may lead to dysarthria include... Brain injury... Head injury." Source "An injury to the tongue or teeth can also cause a lisp." Source
---
Rolan developed it as an adult due to stress:
Everybody responds to stress differently, and sometimes our bodies respond in strange and unexpected ways— such as developing a lisp.
"...anxiety and stress can cause a lisp. This is more common in adults than children." … "Stress and anxiety can surprisingly trigger or exacerbate lisping..." Source 1, Source 2
Reasons Rolan has to be stressed TF out before the events of BG3:
*Abandoned by his biological parents because he was born a tiefling.*
Grew up in an abusive orphanage/temple, in the streets, or both.
He is a tiefling, a species of humanoids in Faerûn that look like devils and are heavily discriminated against because of it.
*Rolan is the oldest and most responsible sibling.*
*His adoptive mother died, either before or during Avernus— leaving Rolan in charge of caring for his younger siblings.*
*Rolan and his family grew up poor, he knew that his magical talents could pull them out of poverty* and he trained incredibly hard to hone his skills without a teacher.
*Due to his lack of proper schooling*, and because his lisp prevents him from properly pronouncing the verbal components of spells, Rolan had to make his own versions of common spells.
He feels responsible for Cal and Lia's wellbeing, and is willing to go to extreme lengths/endure extreme things if it means he can provide a better life for them.
He doesn't truly believe that they consider him their brother/family.
Elturel, his home, was pulled into Avernus for at least a tenday.
He and his siblings had to survive actual hell.
Tieflings were blamed for the city falling into the hells because they look like devils, *leading to violence against them.*
He, his family, and all the other tieflings were exiled from Elturel because they were tieflings.
*He had to leave behind almost everything he had worked so hard to acquire.*
Reasons Rolan has to be stressed TF out during the events of BG3:
He has been roughing it with the other refugees for gods knows how long.
If he takes too long to get to Baldur's Gate he risks his apprenticeship, *his one and (thus far/possibly) only chance to learn how to become a powerful enough wizard that he can support his siblings.*
The druids are threatening to kick them out of the grove.
If they are forced from the grove everyone will be slaughtered by goblins.
Some meddling adventurer convinced his siblings to stay and help protect the other refugees instead of making a break for it on their own.
Wyll is a devil now!?
They traversed through the Shadow-Cursed Lands.
Insane, murderous, cultists attacked the tiefling caravan intent on slaughtering them.
Zevlor (seemingly) betrayed them.
His siblings were captured by said insane, murderous, cultists *because he wasn't strong enough to protect them and the children at the same time.*
That asshole adventurer is back, and they save him and his siblings again.
Baldur's Gate is refusing the refugees entry into the city.
Lorroakan doesn't let Lia and Cal stay in the tower.
Lorroakan is an abusive fraud.
He has to help the Nightsong and the adventurer fight Lorroakan.
He is suddenly the master of Ramazith's Tower and owner of Sorcerous Sundries.
A Netherbrain is set to attack the Gate and take over the Sword Coast.
He promised his help in the fight against said Netherbrain.
He has to figure out how to get the tower's arcane cannons, *which Lorroakan had neglected and allowed to fall into disrepair,* up and running before the final fight.
Just to name a few.
● (Section 2) Rolan's lisp misc. headcanons:
Rolan's lisp gets worse when his is tired or stressed.
It is ironically easier for him to speak clearly when he's drunk (up to a point) because he's used to struggling to pronounce words.
His adoptive mother taught him where to position/how to move his tongue when speaking common with a forked tongue.
Part of the reason he speaks in such a haughty tone is because doing so makes his words more clearly pronounced/enunciated.
His siblings only teased him about his lisp once when they were children, Rolan was so distressed that they vowed to never tease him for his speech impairment again.
Lia got into several fights when she was younger with kids who made fun of Rolan's lisp.
He might as well be a wild magic sorcerer with how often his spells have gone awry because he mispronounced a verbal component.
He is deeply self-conscious about his lisp.
He holds the forks of his tongue together, even when his mouth is closed, which gives him persistent tension headaches.
Once he gets comfortable enough around a romantic partner he stops (actively) trying to suppress his lisp around them and his siblings in private.
● (Section 3) Rolan's lisp forked tongue NSFW headcanons:
Because he has adapted to speaking common with a split tongue he is able to independently control both sides of his tongue.
His tongue is strong because he constantly flexes it.
His tongue is long. While this makes it harder for him to speak, it also leaves his partner very satisfied.
You know you're fucking him real good when his begging words start to slur together.
His ahegao face is top tier.
The amount of time it takes him to recover his ability to speak after an orgasm is increased by how mind-blowing said orgasm was.

Mike Stobbe at AP, via HuffPost:
NEW YORK (AP) — U.S. kindergarten vaccination rates dipped last year and the proportion of children with exemptions rose to an all-time high, according to federal data posted Tuesday. The share of kids exempted from vaccine requirements rose to 3.3%, up from 3% the year before. Meanwhile, 92.7% of kindergartners got their required shots, which is a little lower than the previous two years. Before the COVID-19 pandemic the vaccination rate was 95%, the coverage level that makes it unlikely that a single infection will spark a disease cluster or outbreak. The changes may seem slight but are significant, translating to about 80,000 kids not getting vaccinated, health officials say. The rates help explain a worrisome creep in cases of whooping cough, measles and other vaccine-preventable diseases, said Dr. Raynard Washington, chair of the Big Cities Health Coalition, which represents 35 large metropolitan public health departments. “We all have been challenged with emerging outbreaks ... across the country,” said Washington, the director of the health department serving Charlotte, North Carolina. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention data show that coverage with MMR, DTaP, polio and chickenpox vaccines decreased in more than 30 states among kindergartners for the 2023-2024 school year, Washington noted.
Public health officials focus on vaccination rates for kindergartners because schools can be cauldrons for germs and launching pads for community outbreaks. For years, those rates were high, thanks largely to school attendance mandates that required key vaccinations. All U.S. states and territories require that children attending child care centers and schools be vaccinated against a number of diseases, including, measles, mumps, polio, tetanus, whooping cough and chickenpox. All states allow exemptions for children with medical conditions that prevent them from receiving certain vaccines. And most also permit exemptions for religious or other nonmedical reasons.
Kindergarten vaccine rates dipped to 92.7%, down from the pre-COVID era of 95%. This is due to the increase of exemptions from vaccinations for any non-medical reason, thanks to the anti-vaxxers gaining influence (primarily on the right).

From the Washington Post:
When Israel launched its war against Hamas, Cairo was adamant: It would not accept Palestinian refugees. Yet more than 115,000 Gazans have crossed into Egypt since October, the Palestinian Authority’s embassy here estimates. Most remain in limbo, with no legal status and nowhere else to go. ..Once in Egypt, nonmedical evacuees have largely been left to fend for themselves. Tens of thousands have illegally overstayed their 45-day tourist visas, making them ineligible for public education, health care and other services. The U.N. agency responsible for Palestinian refugees doesn’t cover those in Egypt. And the United Nations’ broader refugee agency said it can’t help new arrivals because Cairo doesn’t recognize its mandate for Palestinians.
This means that Egypt does not recognize Palestinians as refugees because they are covered by UNRWA, and UNRWA is not allowed to have a presence Egypt. So the UNHCR has no ability to help them
This is one of those situations where Palestinians having their own refugee agency doesn't help them at all - in fact, it hurts them. Because UNRWA is only allowed to operate in Gaza, the West Bank, Syria, Lebanon and Jordan and nowhere else. Refugees who are of Palestinian descent are treated differently and cannot get normal refugee services that every other refugee can.
In general, this works out well for them - as long as they stay in those five areas, they get much more than other refugees get. They get free food, free housing, free medical care, and the cost to maintain their permanent standard of living is far higher than for all other refugees worldwide. But once they leave, they have nothing, because very few of them are ever recognized as refugees.
Here we see Egypt refuses to give them refugee status, because UNRWA exists. UNHCR is not happy about it but this is a byproduct of treating Palestinians differently than other refugees. 
It's just another reason why UNRWA should be dismantled. And beyond that, this is another case where the world should be pressuring Egypt to accept the Gazans who desperately want to escape - but it doesn't.

Okay, cool. Can you tell me how and why "it's genocidal to say you don't have to medically transition" makes sense, then?
i think maybe i did not word that post clearly enough, bc this is the not first ask I've gotten about this wondering if I'm a trans medicalist, which I'm absolutely not.
but cis people, specfically, advocating that trans people not medically transition, is not a position i will ever trust comes from a position of what is best for the trans person.
it often feels like the new form of 'why don't you just be a feminine gay guy?' - which was itself also a trap. they dont want us to medically transition, or nonmedically transition, or be queer. they want us to die.
there's a part of me that thinks it's because trans people (trans women especially) who do not medically transition are 'easier to spot' (and in their minds, easier to isolate, and abuse). a lot of medical transition is done for safety reasons - if you can pass, you will have an easier time, often.
obviously, a trans person who doesn't medically transition reassuring other trans people who ask them about it that their transition is valid and real and queer, is not genocide. it's a different experience to mine, but it's not bad. but if it's coming from a cis person, i just don't think it's ever good faith advice, and i don't like how often i'm seeing it from queer (but very cis) lefty circles! but i can see how this thought pattern wasn't immediately clear in that post

(Same Anon previously taking about ND and mental illness, not at you again, sorry just don’t have a account that’s out as plural yet and don’t wanna have my first posts on it to be this sort of thing)
1. using AI over view is not a good source AT ALL, because it will take from ANY place on the internet, not necessarily any sort of actual credible places.
And
2. Theirs a difference between Neurodivergence having mental illnesses UNDER it, and them being synonymous, their are many types of ND that aren’t mental illnesses, but mental illnesses are under it. I am not saying that everyone who’s ND has a mental illness. (E.g. someone with hyperphantasia/aphantasia is ND, but doesn’t necessarily have a mental illness)
it’s called being a umbrella term.
(Example: Ace people are queer, not all queer people are ace. Me saying that Ace people are queer is not the same as saying that all queer people are ace.)
The definition of neurodivergent is “a nonmedical term that describes people whose brains develop or work differently for some reason.” (There’s a few definitions, most are something similar to this, I got it from: https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/symptoms/23154-neurodivergent) ND is MADE to be a all encompassing term that includes a wide range of things, if your brain works differently from the norm in ANY way, than you are ND, and that includes mental illness.
The reason people don’t tend to consider them “ND” is because it was coined for Autism,ADHD,etc but it’s not just them, and I feel limiting it to those things when there’s so many other ways for peoples brains to work differently is.. short sighted, brain differences shouldn’t just include stuff that ‘could’ have a positive, it should include the wide range of things that are only seen as “bad” by people.
It should include people with Depression, Anxiety, Schizophrenia, BPD, NPD.
Agreed on all of this!
Not much to add here other than to say, on the AI source, that Google AI can be REALLY bad at hallucinating and giving incorrect information. There's an entire subreddit dedicated to AI fails that covers this.
Here's a recent example someone shared on that sub:
Tumblr media
I believe AI has a lot of applications, but accurate information in searches is not one of them.

~I found you~
My dearest angel. My last hope. My shining light in the dark. I. FOUND. YOU. You have no idea how happy I am. For so long I wrote about you. I sang about you. I prayed to God thinking about you. My Dearest. My Darling. You don't know me, yet. You don't know about me, yet, but you will. You will know very, very, VERY soon. <3
It took me so long to update my diary, but I'm happy I waited. No one out there needs to know that I found you, but me. No one in this world needs to know what I did to find you. What if THEY look for you? That would be... tragic in every way possible.
Seeing the VERY PERSON I've been thinking about made my heart flutter, dive, and SINK into a pool of admiration. Now... I wait. I wait to see if they- no ... I wait to see if YOU love me back! I w i l l c a r v e y o u r n a m e i n t o m y f l e s h! I think my next plan is to get a special boxcutter. One that represents you. One that I can use to- Oh... No. No no no... That shouldn't be talked about juuuust yet. <3 You'll have to wait to see that message when I'm ready. I love you.

so op of this post blocked me, but this is incredibly misleading!
Tumblr media
here's an article explaining the recommendations for lice, which came from multiple sources (not just the cdc). it basically boils down to lice being far less transmissible or dangerous than people assume.
"Children with head lice should not be sent home from school early. Students with head lice should receive treatment at home after school and may return to class after the first treatment has begun.
Head lice may be a nuisance to the people who have it, but there is no research that shows the parasite spreads any disease, the CDC said on its website. The parasites can cause itching and loss of sleep, but they shouldn't be considered a medical or public health hazard.
Lice cannot jump or fly, and can only transfer from person to person by crawling from one host to the next. Lice spread by contact with inanimate objects and personal belongings is possible, but it is very uncommon since lice feet are specifically adapted to hold onto human hair and not for smooth or slippery surfaces."
they also say kids don't have to be nit-free to return to school, because "research shows that nits are very unlikely to hatch, are not commonly transferred to other people, and nits are often misdiagnosed by nonmedical personnel."
as for the diarrhea, here are the cdc's recommendations:
children should be sent home if they have "diarrhea that causes ‘accidents’, is bloody, or results in greater than two bowel movements above what the child normally experiences in a 24-hour period."
children may return to school if "diarrhea has improved, the child is no longer having accidents or is having bowel movements no more than 2 above normal per 24-hour period for the child. Bloody diarrhea should be evaluated by a healthcare provider prior to return."
kids are prone to the occasional loose stools due to changes in diet. unless it meets the above criteria, it does not warrant missing school.
I'm not saying you should trust the government at face value, and i agree that the cdc grossly mishandled and continues to mishandle covid-19. you have every reason to side-eye their decisions! but side-eyeing a headline without getting the full story only causes further harm.

so.. when you say "nonhuman" do you mean you reject your humanity?
i've never thought about it. i'm just 'curious' :))))
Hey! Happy to explain. Confused as to what the quotations around curious mean, but I'll answer anyway haha.
So, we're a system (multiple people in one body, ours is partially due to Dissociative Identity Disorder) of quite a few individuals. A lot of these people just are nonhuman concepts--animals, deities of all sorts, fictional characters, mythical creatures.. You name it. We have a lot of diverse personal identities in here, mostly because that's how our brain decided to manifest our plurality. Nonhuman headmates are fairly known in both medical and nonmedical presentations of plurality.
Aside from that, we're also collectively otherkin--meaning someone who identifies as / is a nonhuman entity of some sort. This has a lot of overlap with nonhuman system members, but the main difference is that a kintype (entity that the otherkin identifies as) is discovered and not immediately innate and/or known. We have several differing explanations for us being otherkin--some being spiritual, some psychological, and some don't bother to think about the "why". We are a crow collectively, as well as having Hunter from The Owl House as an identity too. Our body may look human and be biologically human, sure, but inside we are not, and this is our body, so as something nonhuman we also see our body as an extension of that regardless of the "actual" biology.
I suppose you could call it a rejection of humanity? But for us personally it wasn't a choice, and was just as strongly felt as our gender not alligning with our birth assigned gender. We reject our personal humanity because we are otherkin, not the other way around. We don't personally reject human society, or living in it, or those who do fully identify as human--and we don't like the misanthropic mindset, though that's for another post haha. We just aren't human, and in the limited spaces we can, prefer to be percieved as something other than that. Honestly we're all for the normalisation of it so that we can be open about this more often--and any other nonharmful personal identity is also included in this, mind you.
Hope that explains it well enough, haha. We just got back from a work meeting so our brain might not be working at 100% after spending a lot of focus on it.

Hi! I'm not a p-ahifter, I'm an alterhuman, but I read the post about Claire, about mermaids. She had some links there that were related to the p-s topic, but the page was probably deleted. So I want to ask: how to actually become a p-shifter? Or how to do shape shifting (literally physical, complete change of human form or parts). They say it takes months, years, not immediately, but how do you get into it?
Honestly? I kinda bumbled my way into shapeshifting, it's to the point where I consider it an innate quality of some people to do it. I can't point to a way for someone to become a shapeshifter or to nonmedically augment their body. It has a large amount of folklore and mythology that depicts it as a spell or curse, being something that is acquired. I think it might be difficult to replicate, but I have heard of some pshifters who have used magic of some sort to become animals. If you're dead set on this, and don't mind probably wasting your time, I'd suggest looking into magic. If you're not already well aware of magic, it might do well to become acquainted with it, but let it be known that the occult is a confusing mess to navigate. I don't think Claire had a method listed on how she did it besides listening to subliminals, which would go into a general Law of Attraction new age belief. I don't personally subscribe to that, but it may be worth looking into if you take Claire as an example.

What Happens When Social Security Disability Benefits Are Denied?
Social Security disability insurance (SSDI) can help offset losses in income if you are unable to work due. However, obtaining these benefits is often a challenge, with over half of all Social Security disability claims being denied each year. Whether you are filing a claim or have already received a denial notice, it is important to be aware of your rights in filing an appeal. Denied Social Security Disability Benefits? According to statistics from the Social Security Administration (SSA), roughly 53 percent of all disability claims end up being denied each year. If this happens, you will be notified via a denial letter, which should contain a brief description of your condition, the impairments you suffer as a result, medical and nonmedical records the SSA used in making their decision, and the explanation of the denial itself. Among the most common reasons for denied SSDI benefits include: Your impairment is not expected at least 12 months, which is a requirement for receiving benefits; The impairments you suffer are not considered severe enough to prevent you from working; You continue to be able to perform tasks on your job or work in another field; You failed to submit the appropriate forms, medical records, or other documentation of your condition. If the letter you receive does not include a full rationale for the denial, you have the right to request this information from the SSA. You also have the right to appeal your denied claim, providing you make the request within 60 days. The Social Security Disability Appeals Process The Social Security disability appeals process is complex. To avoid errors that could jeopardize your rights to benefits, it is important to get an experienced Social Security disability attorney on your side. Once you submit a request for an appeal, there are four levels your claim may go through before a final decision is reached: Reconsideration: This involves a complete review of your SSDI claim by someone who did not take part in the original decision. They will consider all the information you provided as well as any new evidence submitted in making a determination. Hearing by an administrative law judge: If your claim continues to be denied, you may request a hearing before an administrative law judge. During this hearing, each side will have an opportunity to provide evidence in support of their case. Review by the Appeals Council: If the administrative law judge rules against you, you have the right to have their decision reviewed by an appeals council. Federal Court review: If you continue to be denied SSDI benefits, you have the right to file a lawsuit through the federal district court.
