So, guys, since I've been diagnosed w/ schizoaffective disorder what are some of the reasources that can help me together a support system?

I don't really have any fam that can support me.

I'm located in the US.

I'm afraid that my symptoms are getting worse an worse.

CW // Menstruation / Period / Blood discussion

Important Study Involving Menstruation

If you all would like to know why period products are not as absorbent as described, it's because the FIRST TESTING USING BLOOD INSTEAD OF WATER was done LAST WEEK - 08/07/2023. Previously, they had been measuring absorbency using liquids like water during testing. The study using blood found that, like we menstruators know, period products are not near as absorbent as their labels say which, as a result, has been drastically impacting how doctors diagnosed heavy bleeding.

Previously, most doctors diagnosed HMB (Heavy menstrual bleeding) if you had to change your pad/tampon roughly every 2 hours. However, because of this new study FINALLY using ACTUAL BLOOD, it's been revealed that that metric of measuring blood loss is incorrect, as the difference between liquid absorption and blood absorption is large (although I haven't found an article saying exactly how large yet - but large enough that the diagnostic criteria now needs to change).

Coincidentally, the study found that Menstrual Cups/Discs had the best results when it came to holding more blood longer and with less leakage.

Once again proof that the medical field for those with vaginas / those who menstrate is severely lacking and behind other medical fields.

now this is good shit

i'm so confused rn, can you explain the goncharov thing?? i get off tumblr for five minutes

(This post will be kept pinned & periodically updated until 28 Nov)

Lmaoooo

Nah I getchu. So this post has been circulating for like a year:

Link to post.

But yesterday, it had inspired someone to do this:

Link to post.

Next thing I knew there were fake Letterboxed reviews.

Goncharov moodboards. Really good ones.

Link to post.

Meta analysis. So many fake meta essays. Disturbingly good ones. And of course the memes. (Edit: HAVE I SAID THIS SHIT IS DISTURBING)

As you can see, the myth just started to grow, characters and ships and tropes being added one after the other, almost bizzarely without contradiction, until there was enough of shape to the whole thing for people to start posting fanfic about it on AO3. "No beta we die like ice-pick Joe" is already a tag.

Link to post.

It was hilarious in the beginning, but the way it's developed within less than a day, kind of like it's being willed into existence, is freaking me out a bit. We're toying with powers beyond our comprehension. 😂😂😂

Link to post.

Of course, there could be an ulterior motive as well.

Link to post (tags mine).

Edit: guys, please tag these posts "unreality" so people with disassociation issues can filter them out (not this one, this is an explainer). <3

----------------------------------------------

Edit 2: Aparently the boots in the original post are actually referring to a movie called Gomorrah that came out in 2008, directed by Mateo Garrone, based on the Scampia Feud. And other people had also been making posts about the fake movie for a while before the poster took off.

found by @thepotch

Edit 3: Explainer: why did those boots have this movie on them anyway?

Edit 4: Alt text added to all images courtesy of @valentineish ❤️

Edit 5: Turns out tumblr has done this kind of thing before. Nine years in this hell place and I had to have "Squiddles" and penis smp explained in the replies.

Edit 6: This post collects the Lore so far.

Edit 7: Lynda Carter (real one)/ earns more/ Tumblr cred.

Edit 8: Holy shit y'all we have the theme music. With sheet music. And it's on Spotify!

Edit 9: THERE IS A TRAILER WITH THE THEME MUSIC

----------------------------------------------

I made this post 18 hours after the movie poster went up. Closed edits 27 hours after first posting. So all of the above happened within 45 hours of the movie poster going up.

Edit 10: Google document live-compiling all the lore so far (Day 3)

Edit 11: Masterpost of Goncharov soundtracks (Day 3)

Edit 12: Entertainment news articles covering the Gonch-posting (real) (Contd from yday)

Edit 13: The music from the masterpost all compiled into a 31-minute original score with video edits on YouTube (edit: unfortunately taken down)

Edit 14: Staff's Goncharov art showcase for Tumblr Tuesday

As of closing on Day 3 there are 371 works in the AO3 tag.

Updating with Day 3 shenanigans I missed yesterday:

Edit 15: Goncharov TV Tropes page

Edit 16: Ethics of Gonchposting

Important PSA 1 (how to reduce harm to Tumblr's neurodivergents)

Important PSA 2 (reality affirmation, anti-bullying)

Important PSA 3 (why you should stop trying to vandalise legit information sites)

Edit 17: Character lore from beezlebub whose poster they originated from

Edit 18: What we know about/ Director Matteo JWHJ0715 (#unreality)

Edit 19: Link to post with screenshotted and described NYT article (scroll down) and this golden exerpt from BuzzFeed: 💀

Sign if you are in EU, reblog if not please!

Hey, if you have half a minute and care about the LGTBQIA+ community in the EU, I'd suggest you take a look at this initiative to ban conversion therapies in the EU.

1 million people are required to sign, but there's barely 100k. The form takes less than a minute, it only requires your ID, name and surname.

Please, help spread the initiative so that it can reach the goal ASAP!

Blender Reasources for my Resource Tag

- Poly Haven HDRIs for whatever lighting scenarios you fancy

- Blender Kit great for everything, but especially materials. I use for every render I make nowadays. Example this glowing and skirt material and Mandys shiny arms

- Vyxated Rig essential for complicated and controlled posing beyond the default rig. You can really push your posing with this. Also containes a library of pre made poses like arm movements and facial expressions

- Sketchfab for Models like this shark render and this space render i did both use objects from here.

- How to do a 360 spin cycle animation and How to Export It

- you can export 'all seperate meshes and 1 texture' in sims ripper to make editing of individual meshes a lot easier

Watching Alone really drives home the low success rates of a single human hunter and makes you appreciate the value of food that can't run away.

It's also a really good example of how hunter gatherer subsistence works.

If you leave 10 humans in the environment with limited resources and no contact or rescue party, 9 of them will be dead in 90 days.all of them will be dead in a little over 100 days.

Even with 2 people, starvation tends to set in after a couple months.

And yeah, people from hunter gatherer cultures they'd probably be better at this than a bunch of Americans who do it as a side hustle, but there's only so much one person can do in one day. It's almost never enough.

It's too much for one human to collect enough berries to have vitamin c through the winter. It's too much for one human to hunt and process enough big game regularly to feed themselves. it's too much for one human to build an insulated home and then monitor their heat source to keep that home from catching fire.

It's too much to make and use sharp tools without injuring yourself, and it's too much to try and do all the work hurt if you do. It's too much to go out and find more food when your inability to find safe food made you sick.

On the other hand, if you put 10 people out in the environment together with limited resources and occasional contact with other small groups, you'd have a community that could last indefinitely.

For all that we glorify stories of the lone individual against the environment, it very much isn't how we evolved to survive.

Inspired entirely by @theresattrpgforthat stunning fantastic wonderful collection of google sheets they've made for ttrpgs, I have made a google sheet set up for PC playbooks, places, and kith for Wanderhome by @jdragsky. Since, when you play with no one guide, anyone can 'pick up' and play an NPC or place, it seemed best for playing online to have a way of everyone being able to see all of the collected NPCs + Places so far.

Disclaimer that I am not at all versed in google sheets and did this purely for my own game's purposes, but if it can be handy to someone else, awesome :) This likely exists in other forms elsewhere but I tend to find I need very paired down version for my brain processing capacity, so, this is a pretty simplistic version. My playbook included for an example of how I fill out the base form.

hi there! i'm so sorry to bother you if it's private or a commission, but i was curious what mod you use for ris's hair? it looks super beautiful on her!

Heya! Thank you so so much! 💓 not a bother at all, it is a public mod and I'm happy to share the link to the floof:

I also adjust the length and width using Customize+ for Ris!

[hawkfurze]

Hey this is awkward but the stuff you reblog is like nearly my only source of news and information so I'd just like to ask for you to maybe reblog something about completely getting rid of co-pilot from a computer or something like that I don't know

Please

I probably shouldn’t be your only source of information as I’m just a random artist on the internet who gets a bit too pationate about politics and the injustices of the world and everything I reblog is from people on my dash, and sometimes I do come across misinformation that I reblog, only to find out later that it’s not true. I’m not sure what is copiloting on a computer is, but if someone who follows me knows maybe they can leave a link to help figure out how to solve your problem?

It’s hard to really understand what to do against a force like this as an American who’s situation only really permits voting in terms of activism against Israel and genocide. It’s difficult to make motion, it’s difficult to move mountains all the way over here.

But you aren’t useless in an endeavor. You aren’t useless because of your distance or situation or “helplessness” in regards to aid.

Do what you can. Listen, read, become informed. Lend aid where you can. You are helping. Everyone is so happy that you are helping. Thank you for helping.

Please do your daily clicks, because you are helping.

Please vote in the upcoming election, because you are helping.

Please if you can lend monetary aid because you are helping.

Please spread awareness and please read, and please be safe. Because you are helping.

the nazi israeli army must be stopped like actually its insane this has gone on for this long
