The great part of having a girlfriend who understands chronic conditions: EVERYTHING

Uhhh, the slightly not great part for both of us: syncing up our cycles and being in pain at the same time

Ok but I'm living for the idea of Sparrow raising two kids while having druid magic. it would have made his life so much easier but he could never overtly use it bc he had to keep it a secret from his own family

But like you can NOT tell me that Normal didn't at least once sprain his ankle trying to do a flip and Sparrow already had a headache and he didn't really want to go through the hassle of taking his kid to the doctor so he just quickly Cure Wounds'ed him, and when Normal asked about it, he was just like, yeah i once met a guy in bali who taught me pranic healing. And normal just has to live with that for an explanation.

i personally will never ever forget two years ago when every misogynistic ghoul with a twitch channel live reacted to amber heard testify about being raped and then picked everything she recounted to shreds and made fun of her because it got them views & engagement. truly fucking dystopian

day two and I'm realizing maybe a person who firmly believes at least 70% of makeup/skincare brands are built off of insecurity-manipulating greed should not be a sales associate for a makeup store

I mean I'm going to keep working here but I'm absolutely going to be the person pointing the customers towards the bargain brands and not even mentioning the luxury money-hemorrhaging stuff unless they ask for it

anri is so important man she's the og emperor of blue lock she's the co-creator who kickstarted the plot to fulfill her impossible dream she revived the actual author-artist of blue lock's story she's thematically foundational to this manga and she'd be unstoppable if kaneshiro's misogyny wasn't nerfing her into perpetual obscurity and unfunny jokes about her naivety as though she isn't a member of the jfa and the literal person who gave you your fucking job, egojin

nothing humbles me quite like checking a mbti database & seeing characters with my personality type

reading the carbon monoxide inhalation study done in collaboration with a WADA lab and im afraid the gas huffing memes were all true

Thinking about when i studied counselling at uni and they straight up told us that cbt has negative outcomes for many people and shouldn't become a standard for care, all talking therapies seem to have the same efficacy as each other, many psychologists think therapy is ineffective altogether, serotonin and dopamine don't work like that we just act like they do because pills that prevent their reuptake help people*, all diagnoses are a socially created (and enforced) map that shifts and changes with time and culture, and any one person could have been diagnosed and treated differently by myriad different doctors based on luck and social factors

Shame its practitioners don't think so

Im super charmed whenever they include tsukasas corpse inside the freezer its so funny to me ... that man is not in cryostasis he is straight up dead

Everyday the realist and the romanticist inside me fight.

The realist thinks that MBTI doesn’t hold any scientific evidence of being more reliable than astrology or lie detector tests.

The romanticist blossoms because I share the same personality type as my favorite classical literature authors, painters and musicians.

I think the romanticist wins most of the time.

For anyone who's unaware: during yesterday's crime time, Sneeg watched one of Explore With Us' videos (a channel notorious for using "body language" pseudoscience ad nauseam in their videos, and a channel Sneeg has gone off on in the past) and got so fed up with their bs that he tweeted this

I guess EWU found it in their indirects and...

I think they're taking it well

A hilariously ironic detail: half of their livetweets in this thread are them repeatedly misreading his sarcasm as a genuine expression when he made fun of them by saying he could tell his dog was mad because she blinked.

"i, as a woman, feel like i don't have autonomy in a patriarchal society. oh i know the solution - let's say my lack of autonomy comes from the fundamental fucking universe itself instead of just being a social construct!! that solves everything!!"
