Sorry to disappoint the armchair engineers but …

[spinergy-69]

Pov: Por primera vez luego de más de 20 años siendo rostro público, Tulio Triviño consigue su propia estatua conmemorativa en Santiago. Juan Carlos visita el lugar por la noche, y hasta se alegra por él en un inicio, molestando a la estatua como si pudiese escucharlo, pero reacciona momentos después, dándose una vergüenza terrible a sí mismo.

Sí, este es un Redraw de la película #Hércules, de #Disney.

Ya sé qué estás pensando; ¿De qué parte del culo se sacó este Au?, Es una maquinación que venimos digiriendo con @anima-letters hace un tiempo, para la cual, escribiré a detalle parte de lo que hemos discutido, con el fin de que también aprecien tan singular comparación y digan: Sí, @spinergy-69, es cine 🚬

>

Megara, una de las antagonistas de la película de Disney "Hércules". Encarna a la perfección el arquetipo de la "femme fatale": Es sarcástica, inteligente, sensual y carismática, aunque marcada por profundos problemas de confianza.

Vive resignada a una vida de soledad, su único objetivo es reducir su condena ayudando a Hades en sus planes para reinar el cosmos. Para lograrlo, utiliza su atractivo físico y su habilidad para manipular, coqueteando con hombres poderosos y llevándolos a su muerte. Sin embargo, su visión vacía y cínica de la vida comienza a transformarse al cruzarse con Hércules. La genuina inocencia y torpeza del héroe logran despertar en ella la idea de que aún hay bondad en el mundo, y, lo más importante, de que aún puede aprender a confiar en alguien.

Juan Carlos opera de una manera similar. Con su encanto y manipulación, asume el papel del novio ideal, siempre en busca de algún beneficio personal: Una ducha caliente, comida o sexo. Incluso llega a prometer matrimonio, todo como parte de su estrategia.

Esta dinámica de lenta aceptación me recuerda mucho al Tudoque, donde Juan Carlos establece una relación de confianza con alguien a quien considera ingenuo. De haberlo conocido ya en su adultez, probablemente habría desarrollado una conexión con él de manera gradual, como Megara lo hace con Hércules.

Proceso "creativo"

¿Alguna vez se cuestionaron como es que @spinergy-69 y su servidor se llegan a organizar para traerles algunas historias/tramas? Pues vean el detrás de escena.

Ya que después de un siglo que se lo sugerí y lo hablamos por primera vez, ahora yo también me voy a tardar otro siglo (j) para hacer la parte escrita Tudoque con temática de Hércules (Disney), ¡por lo cual no duden en estar atentos!

P.d Esto es otro trabajo promedio mexicano, ni en vacaciones me da un descanso /j

Being disabled/chronically ill is expensive!

I don't know if people realize how freaking expensive it is to be disabled. I have a complex medical history, which includes two rare genetic illnesses, comorbidities associated with those two illnesses, and several mental health conditions. Just to give an idea of how expensive it is (USA-centric):

I'm forced into living in a specific city, since that's where the medical specialists for my illnesses are located in. On top of that, sometimes the specific specialists I need aren’t covered by my insurance, so I have to pay out-of-pocket. Each medical specialist (when covered by insurance) costs me $40/visit. I average 2-3 visits per month.

Wheelchairs and everything related to wheelchairs are ridiculously priced! If you’re a regular manual wheelchair user, for example, you likely need what’s referred to as a “custom ultra-lightweight wheelchair”. The main companies known for making these wheelchairs are TiLite, Quickie, RGK, Kuschall, and Ki Mobility. If you go on the websites for these manufacturers, you’ll see that just the frame will start you at $2,000+. Need titanium instead of aluminum to make the chair lighter? Extra $1,000. Need to add a seat cushion? More $$. Need to add a power assist device like a SmartDrive? Extra $6-7,000

Seriously, wheelchair parts are expensive. Manual wheelchair wheels will run you about $500 to $800 each (take a look at websites like Spinergy to see what I mean). Wheelchair tires will run at about $300 for the pair.

Mental healthcare! Competent psychiatric care is difficult to come by, at least where I live. Most psychiatrists are not contracted with any insurance companies. My own psychiatrist is $200 per visit, and that’s considered cheap in my area. Then, add on the cost of weekly therapy. My therapist is $150/session. Again, typical price for the area. Need residential treatment? As an example, my insurance quoted me $750 per day until the out-of-pocket max of $6,500 was met.

The monthly cost of medications! I take 7 medications. Even if each medication was “only” $10/month, that would total to $70/month.

The cost of specialized diets. Many chronic illnesses require special foods, supplements, and overall diets. A lot of these diets require extra time and expenses beyond what the average non-disabled person spends.

I wanted to spread some awareness on this issue because, even among my friend group, I regularly get surprised reactions on this topic. Disabled people are often low-income due to being unable to work consistently or at all, while also having some of the highest expenses—with many of those expenses having to be paid for completely out-of-pocket. While a lot of the examples I used above were specific to the US healthcare system, I’m aware that it’s still similarly expensive to be disabled in other countries as well.

A lot of this wasn’t even taking into consideration the cost of more expensive medical equipment, like power chairs, as well as irregular medical costs that occur more frequently among disabled people—like surgeries, hospitalizations, and the cost of diagnostic testing (MRIs, X-Rays, bloodwork, etc.).

Disabled people are taken advantage of when it comes to the price of medical equipment and medications because we don’t have a choice if we want to live and/or have any quality of life. We pay it, or we suffer.

"HECHO PARA TI"

¡Felices fiestas! Espero que ya sea que la pasen en compañía o sin ella (o incluso en una situación más complicada) puedan sobrevivir a las festividades. Es complicado pero hay mucho por lo cual demostrarle al ambiente decembrino. Hace bastante que no subo simplemente versos, pero es un detalle pequeño para @spinergy-69 por estas fechas. Donde solo quiero presumir mí HC de que Tulio, como el enamorado desquiciado que es, PUEDE ser tan poético como Bodoque, pero con ese estilo de vida que tiene, pocas veces se da ese lujo (y porque requiere de concentración, algo que a veces no tiene).

Esto entonces está escrito no solamente en el deseo de expresarle lo que siente, sino también, que habla desde el hecho de que Bodoque es, completamente y por siempre, lo más preciado en su mundo; en esta y en todas las vidas posibles.

Espero que lo disfruten.

♡

No estoy hecho para ti, porque no fui hecho para nadie, No nací para amarte, no fui creado para adorarte, No soy un conjunto estratégicamente pensado para quererte; Porque el amor ha sido un privilegio más que un hecho.

Es por eso mismo que, si te digo que te amo, entre la hambruna de la fama, En los recuerdos que me ahogan en la más angustiosa pena, Es voluntario, es mí deseo, es el placer que me permito desde el primer encuentro, Porque no habré sido creado para pertenecer en tus brazos, No habré sido pensado para ser parte de tú encanto, Pero todos los días, en todas las horas, en cada minuto quiero ser tuyo, Quiero ser tú “mío”. Ya que no hay elección más sensata, más cierta, Que la de amarte con todo lo que he sido, Lo que somos, Lo que seremos.

Así que no importa si el destino no nos hizo en una misma pieza, No importa si nuestras sombras desencajan, Eres el camino al que siempre me dirijo cuando estoy solo, Cuando estoy contento, Porque eres el principio del fin, Y el final que da un comienzo, Porque mi vida no es vida si no es contigo, Porque la muerte sin ti suena a un delirio.

No, no estamos hechos el uno para el otro, Pero nunca me ha importado, Porque, incluso siendo piezas imperfectas, Diré que el único lugar en el que encajo es en el espacio, De entre tus manos, De entre tus brazos, De entre los miedos por los cuales yo juro haberme enamorado.

Don't harass anyone just block

This isn't something I wouldn't make without reason. I'm sure a lot of people must of noticed these out of place posts in the 31 minutos tag

Spinergy-69 posted in the main 31 minutos tag, except this was a post directed against a post of the person in the screenshot.

"Things that make me laugh? Having debated a thousand years ago a public post tagged "Tulio Triviño" in which I thought I was going to be able to debate at ease with another fan, fighting arguments for the mere fun of doing it, and after 437268573 days he still quotes someone who commented a list of things for which he didn't think the same. I really am unforgettable. 🚬 Don't worry, I'm all about talking things face to face, instead of sending childish indirects like this specimen, but the times l've tried to talk it out in the posts he devotes to me, he cries even louder the baby, so that's all that's left and my last reference to it, Peace"

Below it is an image of that person's post (who will be called "A") he was responding to, it reads:

"Every time I see a white humanization of Tulio (even more if he is blonde/has streaked hair like the puppet) it takes years off my life. HE LOOKS HORRIBLE LIKE THAT THEY TOOK AWAY HIS MELANIN!!!

(don't take this post so seriously I don't want whiners to come and try to "debate" like when I said that Tulio was canonically fat)"

he also wrote tags that said "#bonus points if they make Bodoque more brown than him #it seems classist to me #the rich guy has to be white and the other more brown because he doesn't have as much money"

User Spinergy drew a box around the last sentence that says, "No one, absolutely no one draws him more brown because of that"

In the second image, Spinergy again posts in the 31 minutos tag a post directed against A. A has told Spinergy many times not to interact with him, and Spinergy has continued to ignore that. It says:

"I want to cancel (person's @) for giving me the spectacular HC that Juan Carlos Bodoque would be brown for being exposed to the most extreme weather conditions, being an off-road reporter. Between the Chilean desert and the Chilean arctic he would have a tan color worth appreciating. Assuming that fans have related skin tone to monetary acquisition, is in fact, the most classist thought I have read in a long time, cancel (he calls A a snake)"

I will add that in the comments of this post, he speaks with his friend and it says this:

"I accept the cancelation, I am enemy #1 of a JC with PERFECTLY WHITE skin, how would he not have sun spots, a constant tan or noticeable burns considering he even let himself be buried under sand?

-And what a great episode it was, holy shit... Totally cinematic.

-Besides, we already have someone with milky skin and another with pure, porcelain-white skin. Let the adventurer express his savagery in his skin, let the tan be a mark of life rather than a social stigma"

I don't have to explain why that's colorist language. Attributing savagery and the wild with tan/brown skin is very bad. It's ironic he's called A discriminatory when he's fine with this.

After those two posts, A responds with this:

"I seriously have to clarify that in my previous post that when I said that it seems classist to me that Tulio is always made white and Juan Carlos brown, I don't mean that EVERY such humanization is classist in itself, but because classism mixed with racism/colorism in LATAM is something very present???

Yes, each person may have a reason for why Bodoque is brown (whether it's because of work, being born that way or just because one likes it) but I simply mentioned that because people sometimes mess up with it unintentionally. It just can't be that I said in the post not to take it so seriously, and a few hours later, I found out that they took it seriously. He then accuses me of being a classist for making a connection??? what a laugh.

I was referring to the fact that rich people always have to be made white, almost as if tulio for being a spoiled rich guy has to be white even though the same series shows that he is not, he looks like Pedro Peirano (his voice actor) who's not white. I didn't accuse the headcanon of brown bodoque as something bad nor did I say that I think it is bad in itself wtf is up with people."

A then writes in the tags "#well what do I expect from the guy that I asked to NOT INTERACT with me and he keeps on doing it to defame me"

This seems reasonable enough. Spinergy then decides to comment.

"Lalala~ we saw you. Im happy I took that screenshot,

-"Discriminatory" is when I complain about stereotypes that can seep into what you do whether in a good way or not. And what if you get yourself a job instead of being obsessed with me, fan????

-I hadn't responded to any of the indirects you left publically for me, but I'm fed up with you, all day long looking for attention, leave me alone. Pretending someone pays attention to you won't make you turn history on its head. The one with the childish and not at all brave indirects, is you, it's not my style. Just stop crying, you're too big for that.

-"all day looking for attention" man I only mentioned you in ONE post. Besides I had blocked you, SUPPOSEDLY you shouldn't be able to see my posts. Anyways, you never responding was a lie, you literally dedicated two whole posts trashing me because why not.

-If you didn't bump into me you wouldn't make posts using the show's hashtag to get my friends attention or mine. You're too old to be fighting with people my age. It'd be better if you go pay taxes or do something really productive. I've thought about blocking you and never seeing you in my life, that's why I mentioned you in a post.

-You have severe mythomania. You invent bullshit to bash anyone who disagrees with you. This wasn't my words but I was told you were a lot like "Hitler" and I agree. Wrapping it up, it's easier to catch a liar than a thief, so it will be for you, everyone has to pay for their mistakes eventually. Peace out and really block this time, I don't block. That's for pussys."

Completely immature and so unnecessarily mean for an adult to speak like this to a minor. A minor who has said many times he doesn't want him to interact with him. This is just bully behavior.

The thing that started Spinergy to harass A was this post

"Tulio should be drawn chubby more often... It bothers me a bit that whenever he's humanized, it isn't taken into account that he's canonically chubby. I'd like to see that reflected in fanart more 😔"

Things then go downhill in the comments

"He's not fat, it's just that as a television personality he's held to strict and unattainable standards, so even though he's known to be on a diet, it's hard for him to meet those standards.

-They still call him fat, dude. If he calls himself fat, then he is fat.

-Of course they're going to tell him that, tulio lives in a way that is very much dependent on his appearance, if you want to screw a tv figure, telling him like that is the most effective way to ruin his day. The camera will make you gain between 5 and 8 kilos. If your weight is normal, you still have to lose another 5 more to look thin on tv. Maybe he's fat for tv, but he's still average.

-Dude what do I care. I'm just saying it because it pisses me off that they always make him a stick 😭 Is it so hard for a little guy to say that he wants to see tulio fat or

-Hmmn, frustration over a conversation as to what we've seen canon and what we haven't? hahaha, what

-You are unbearable, "Ay Tulio can't be fat because *insert dumb reason*" Dude, what does it affect you that I see tulio fat? does it bother you that much?

-Hahaha, I didn't even get upset. It was you who started screaming about your own personal frustrations. at least my "dumb reasons" have much more logic than your zero frustration tolerance. You are fighting like I insulted your own belly, control yourself like an adult.

-"Control yourself as an adult" I'm a minor, dude, it looks like you didn't see my post that mentions it lol. Tulio is not in his 20s, it makes all the sense in the world that he is fat or has SOME belly, in the fourth season MINIMUM he starts his 40s, besides it was YOU who came with the " he's not fat because TV stars aren't" story.

-Besides, it makes me laugh at how you talk so much about the canon and make Juan Carlos a redhead or Tulio with striped hair when they are respectively blonde and black-haired. It's like... bruh

"Believe me, my love, it shows that you're a minor, haha. In any case, that's not what I said, and you know that very well. And yes, I know Tulio is in his 40s in the last season, which is not synonymous with being fat.

-I don't understand why you write in such a fucking disgusting know-it-all way but hey. A man in his 40's would be letting himself loose (getting old), and besides Tulio is not into working out, it would make sense for him to have a belly. Tulio getting screwed by being fat would look good with his character and would speak to how much, despite pretending to love himself, hates his looks and does everything to his physical appearance and does everything to change it +

-(Continued) There are episodes that mainly revolve around or focus on Tulio being seen as fat. It WOULD make sense that he would be. Now I ask: what is your reason for COMING to my post complaining "ay he's not fat" and then screaming when you started the whole thing.

-I came to say my opinion because that's what you leave public posts for, so that the rest of the fandom can give our personal opinion, and that's what I did. And when I commented normally you jumped in with "dude what do I care" a way that, according to me, contain zero respect. So check the comments back, I'm just telling you that I don't think alike, and that's why I said you have zero frustration tolerance, since you won't admit to being told "no".

-If you wanted so much respect you could have simply said "I like the way you see the subject but I think that this (insert your reasoning) is better" not come to say "ummm he is not fat because I say so" and then call me a crybaby and then treat me as less and act superior. I came with all the desire in the world to share what I believe and you had to come and say that it isn't true because it does not make sense.

-Who gets to say I think it's a good idea when it's not? It doesn't seem so to me, and that's why I came to debate in a healthy way, in any case, that you need me to say something like that denotes your insecurity in front of the subject. And no, just because you use diminutives like "ganitas", it won't change the fact that you jumped to defend yourself when no one parroted nothing."

-The way you said it it sounded more like "he's not fat because I said so" rather than "I don't believe he's fat".

-By giving arguments like the world of television, cameras, diets, the immeasurable unreal pressure on media figures, I am not saying "because I say so", on the contrary, rather it is something similar to: Look, I have these cards that could be possible clues. Try not to be so delicate when someone comes to comment on another of your posts casually.

-You know what? If you weren't so nasty I would have listened to you, treating me as lesser simply for getting mad at you, some of your arguments might be interesting, but suuure it was very difficult to tell me something to my face instead of calling me "delicate" or "frustrated", no of course not /sarc

-To your face? Haha, I'm telling you to your face that you got frustrated for no reason, that you got into a fight when I only came to debate a topic I'm passionate about, and that you have tolerance of a little girl, to your face.

-Not the misgendering 💀💀💀 You've whined at me enough, if you like the block button so much then eat it whole

-It was "No tolerance", my phone betrays me with its auto-correct. And do what you want, you reaffirm my theory that you have no tolerance"

Spinergy is acting rude and like a child. Over something as petty as a sock monkey being fat. It's one thing if he's just a rude person but it's another to act like a bully to a minor. A minor who he knows he makes uncomfortable. It's his responsibility to be the mature one and not go after a kid. It'd be so much easier to ignore A and continue living. He just wants to antagonize someone younger than him for no reason.

Here Spinergy ignores A's boundaries and argues

"Why is that? Because I told you some time ago that I thought differently? different?

-For being annoying and ignorant, and for trying to play the "intellectual," you make me seriously uncomfortable, and I don't want you here. End of.

-Bah, I only commented with my point of view because by making a public post, you are indirectly inviting others to participate, but then you started crying for nothing. If you don't want people to come and comment on a topic you put on the table, I insist, tag it, block and problem solved.

-I blocked you in fact, but for whatever reason, you can still comment. Don't act like you "came to give your opinion" far from it, you told me that Tulio being fat didn't make sense because of "TV standards" which don't apply to male newshosts, and then when I told you "what do I care" you started to bawl like I killed your family.

-Sure what do I know, I have friends who have told me how muuuch you like to bother people on other social medias, all agree that you are extremely unpleasant to deal with, clearly the one who is wrong is me not you, because you're an angel, right? /Sarc

-No, no, I love debating, it's my favorite national sport. The one who cried here is the one who, curiously, blocked me and got offended. I could talk or debate all my life. It's obvious who is itching to fight.

-In fact I wouldn't have had a problem with it being your opinion (which you just used to make yourself look better at the last minute), what was disgusting to me was the way you started to act superior out of nowhere, first telling me "to act like an adult", and when I told you I wasn't you mocked me saying "I knew you were a minor". Oh but I'm the crybaby for saying "what do I care" XD????

-But how did they recognize me? And on what other social media? Bullshit. Although the very idea of being considered as such makes me laugh hahahaha. Anyway, I don't get offended by anything, nothing at all, so if I seemed offended, it was a misunderstanding, so you can lower your weapons.

-On Facebook, I've literally been told that you used to roleplay as Bodoque and bully because one person did a Juanin voice with your little friends, besides many people saw the conversation and it made them cringe with your way of imposing yourself as if you were Jesus Christ.

P.S if you weren't offended you wouldn't have started with your bullshit comments that I'm "frustrated" ;)

-No, no, as I said, I don't get offended by anything, I insult my friends worse hahaha, it's the truth. Maybe both, you and I, interpreted that the other was frustrated wrongly. And yes I have a Juan Carlos account, it's the most popular on Facebook, but it's roleplay. I never go out of character. It is clearly a compliment to its existence. I never comment as a user there, so the mockery of which you speak was in character, laughing as Bodoque and Tulio.

-I'm still fed up with you, so please don't interact with my account anymore. I don't want you here.

-Anyway, you didn't consider possible excessive exaltation, or possible misinterpretation on your part, as if you couldn't be wrong in a debate. Many points can lead a person to argue, in your case. In mine, I only came to comment about Guaripolo, for another, blockk.

-I already told you that I had blocked you. Just that for some reason I don't know, you can still interact with my posts. That's why I told you to stop doing it."

At this point, he could've simply apologized and respected his wishes. Why be so disrespectful towards someone who hasn't done anything harmful. Not only that but he also confirmed that account A mentioned. If Spinergy is comfortable enough acting like this then I don't have high hopes for what he's done on facebook.

A wants Spinergy to not interact with him not only because of that, but also because Spinergy's account is technically 18+. He has posted nsfw art before. As an owner of an adult blog, he needs to state that it is one. Even if the blog has a little nsfw.

While he did appropriately tag that post as nsfw, he also maintagged it as 31 minutos. The 31 minutos tumblr community has a lot of minor fans, with the chance of them possibly seeing it. It wasn't put under the mature label either.

I don't have much closing words except to stop being mean, stop interacting with minors with an account you've posted nsfw to (alongside suggestive themes), and to act like an adult.

Block him and don't harass anyone here. Don't mention names of anyone involved, the main focus is Spinergy.

I'll finish off with words from A

"Spinergy should block me too if he's tired of me. Because I'm sick of feeling insecure about posting things and him seeing it"

[wheelie-sick]

Ough!!! I love the pride wheelchair! (Currently looking at getting the same model or a different permobil) is it good? I've never gotten a custom fitted chair before so idk how to judge them

overall: yes, absolutely. there's a reason my model of wheelchair (TiLite Aero Z) is so popular

....but when you break it down it's a little more complicated

custom chairs don't really just come as a model, they come as a model with dozens of different options to choose from. every part of this chair can be customized. there are parts of my chair I love and parts of my chair I plan on changing.

footplate (angle adjustable aluminum): I don't really have many complaints about my footplate. it was initially set at an angle that caused my legs to regularly rattle off of it so I was very happy to have the angle adjustment ability. this footplate is also height adjustable, my footplate came too low so I had to raise it slightly. my only complaint is that my footplate tends to slip if I use it to step into my chair so I have to transfer without bearing weight on it.

seat cushion (comfort curve): this cushion is awful, it's a solid brick of foam and has given me many pressure sores. it's also a very sweaty cushion. I'm planning on switching to a stimulite cushion.

wheels (whatever the default wheels are): they're useable but when combined with solid rubber tires each wheel weighs 6lbs making the wheels over a third of the weight of my chair. in an ideal world I'd switch to spinergy wheels but I don't have that kind of money LOL

tires (primo solid tires): these last forever but don't have much grip so they're prone to skidding. I'm switching to shox solid wheelchair tires.

push rims (default metal): I'm okay with my push rims but they're very slippery and pretty much require wheelchair gloves to use. they also get cold very quickly. I'd certainly prefer natural fit push rims

clothing guards (aluminum): honestly these are a necessity. they keep my clothing clean and out of the wheels and they're very cozy. would recommend.

arm rests (tubular swing away arm rests): don't let custom wheelchair Tumblr tell you that arm rests just get in the way and serve no purpose because I love mine. they don't get in the way at all, they give me a nice spot to rest my arms (that isn't on my wheels which can lead to broken fingers if someone pushes you), they make transferring easier (especially important since I can't step on my footplate), and they offer a way to relieve pressure so I don't develop pressure sores. they're made with very comfortable materials. I love them. I'd strongly recommend them, you can always take them off if you decide you don't like them.

backrest (varlite icon low back system): actually my favorite part of my chair. this backrest is infinitely adjustable (height, depth, angle, left-right, firmness of the cushion, etc.) so you can create the most comfortable backrest possible. I adore mine, it does so much for my back pain.

push handles (integrated): I was originally supposed to have flip down push handles but they fucked up my order form. I was initially upset about it but they explained that one of the benefits was that I could use a wheelchair backpack without flipping the handles down in the process. I'm not totally sure that makes up for it but I actually haven't had many problems with my push handles (in part because I have a low backrest)

some of these things were upgrades and therefore require justification (assuming you're going through insurance)

When The Ordinary Becomes Extraordinary – Bike Snob NYC

If you’re like me, cycling is about one thing and one thing only, which is the pursuit of “explosive ride feel:” This is of course why I ride vintage Spinergys, which could explode at any moment: Intrigued, I checked out the Cadex Max 40, which starts at only $2,000… …for one wheel: So what makes the Cadex Max 40 so explosively awesome? To find out, I checked the review: Not only does it…

[urbancripple]

Since this has picked up steam, I just wanna add that if you want to actually make improvements to wheelchairs...

make stuff that is designed to fit on to an existing wheelchair!

Don't say "I made a special luggage set that can attach to the back of a wheelchair!"

Say: "I made an adapter that fits most standard luggage sets and lets you easily attach them to the back of your wheelchair!

Don't say "I made a new power chair with extra light long lasting custom batteries!"

Say "I made an extra light long lasting battery that will fit most standard power chairs."

Don't make a new wheelchair - make better after market parts: forks, casters, suspension systems, footrests, etc., Make them affordable and backwards compatible with most chairs.

Be like Spinergy, not Omeo.

"Innovations"

Entrepreneur: I've improved the wheelchair by...

Actual Wheelchair Users: Making it cheaper?!

Entrepreneur: ...creating a wildly inconvenient version for seven bazillion dollars that weighs as much as a grown man, goes 100mph and can't be taken on a plane.

Actual Wheelchair Users: What?! No, I can't afford a basic chair that meets my medical needs.

Entrepreneur: I just want to improve people's lives...

Actual Wheelchair Users: Make insurance pay for the perfectly reasonable, normal, not weird wheelchair my doctor prescribed for me.

Entrepreneur: But... but...innovation...disruption.

Got out for a little gravel this afternoon. The more I ride the Intense 951 Series, the more I like it. The Spinergy GX wheels are awesome.

Spent most of my night playing #CODMW2 since I couldn’t sleep due to pain. The joys. Probably the thing I hate most about winter. The cold, damp weather goes for my joints. Feel like a 👵🏻 sometimes

[anima-letters]

Aprecio con el alma los regalos que me hacen, y ya que @spinergy-69 es realmente uno de mis amigos cercanos pese al tiempo corto y longevo que nos conocemos, le mostré las cosas que me hice para uso personal con su autorización (aunque crea que es demasiado formal pedirle permiso). Y ahora después de un laaaaargo tiempo de que básicamente los uso en mi día a día, me digno a presumirlo a internet.

Me hizo tomar otras fotos, pero esas son las más cercanas a la mercancía. Así que para evitar que me vuelva a colocar de fotógrafo. Es:

Una funda de celular personalizada.

Un mousepad.

P.d Que este post también sirva como exposición para demostrar que tiene sentimientos /j.

Conversación 2.0

No es un regalo en la exactitud de la palabra, pero sigue siendo un día especial y, ciertamente, sigue siendo alguien que me sigue inspirando bastante.

Así que @spinergy-69, nuevamente, le agradezco que escuche e incremente mi obsesión por este fandom. Y, otra vez, también espero que este haya sido un día maravilloso para usted.

Así que le dedico especialmente esta nueva versión inspirada en el drabble que hice de Cindy.

-ˋˏ ༻✿༺ ˎˊ-

Fue como una señal del destino.

No había esperado encontrar más belleza lejos del oleaje, una suavidad mayor al de la arena debajo de sus pies, ni siquiera esperó encontrar un calor mucho más abrasador y tierno que el mismo proporcionado por el sol; pero, otra vez, algo la empujó a caminar hacia el magnetismo de la figura que se realza como un sentimiento conocido, predestinado.

Su mente, aún incapaz de traducir ese sentimiento, ignora a la entidad que comienza a difuminarse junto con el paisaje, hasta que este mismo llama su atención.

Es perfecto, peligrosamente perfecto, no necesita tocar su piel para saber que el algodón apenas es una comparación paupérrima, no necesita preguntarle si tiene una rutina de belleza para una tez tan maravillosa. Cindy ni siquiera necesita preguntarle quién es para saber que es, quizás, el destino presentándose como un hombre. Su hombre ideal.

Pero, se recordó, que la cautela incluso en las almas gemelas siempre será la elección correcta. No importa cuánto brille algo, podría ser simplemente oro para tontos. Aunque, piensa casi de inmediato, sus ojos ámbar no parecen piritas sin valor.

Se mantiene fuerte, orgullosa; los hilos rojos son una posibilidad mínima de encontrar. Y su corazón no necesita falsos lazos para subsistir.

Es fuerte, inteligente, en su alma arde determinación y superación.

Más las llamas danzan inestables cuando lo ven  intentar acercarse, a veces torpe, a veces galante. Y ni siquiera puede comenzar a cuestionarse si se está riendo por adoración o porque, de cierta forma, ese hombre está comenzando a derribar cada muralla que alza con una inexplicable facilidad.

Tulio, como según se presentó, no dejó ningún espacio para dudar en su declaración inocente: estaba interesado. Nunca mencionó el romance, ni una estabilidad en esa confesión, únicamente pura atracción y curiosidad. Lo que Cindy respetaba, especialmente ante la identificación sobre esos pensamientos iniciales; también creía que Tulio era atractivo, un adonis, demasiado perfecto para considerarse verdadero, lo que, por ende, avivaba su curiosidad. Más no permitiría que esta última reinase sobre su lógica, sin importar que tan cómodo y familiar se sintiera estar con él.

Pero el hombre no se rinde, tampoco presiona, es tan solo un explorador que busca, con una atención dulce, un mapa para explorar el alrededor. Cosa de la que no puede negarse durante más tiempo ya que la hace sentir tan cómoda, como si ya hubiesen caminado ese camino, como si ya hubiesen tenido esa conversación.

El mar fue especialmente hermoso ese día, e incluso si una pizca de tristeza la inundó en la despedida, sabe que sus huellas no se borraran en la arena.

Y fue el destino quien murmuró, una vez sus contactos se intercambiaban, que estaban hechos para el otro.

No obstante, se limitó a seguir a su razón, sin importar cuánto su corazón comenzara a latir por el desconocido. Era una mujer cautelosa, precavida, no podía dar su alma sin estar segura de las cosas.

Entonces la venda fue cayendo lentamente sobre sus ojos.

La frecuencia con la que hablaban o se veían aumentaba con cada día, al grado que el sol comenzó a broncear la unión de sus manos, sus mejillas, daba un tono caramelo en esas delicadas mejillas, lo que provocaba un pulso desenfrenado debajo de su pecho, el cual trató de contener antes de un ataque; lo que se volvía complicado con los días. E incluso por más esfuerzo que colocara, sus barreras flaqueaban ante las caricias que le brindaba.

Suave, delicado, íntimo y seguro.

Tulio Triviño era un helado de fresa en pleno verano: refrescante y dulce.

Entonces el destino gritó con más fuerza, anunciando que no existen almas tan perfectas como las de ellos ahora.

Más lo niega, o trata de hacerlo. 

Cindy Miraflores no es una mujer inocente, mucho menos ingenua. Sabe que el verano tiene un principio como un fin.

Pero queda ciega prontamente a mitad de verano.

Había comenzado como una pequeña duda, inspirada en su propia curiosidad, hasta ir aumentando en una serie de cuestiones en las que el contrario poseía la libertad de negarse a contestar; lo que no pasó. Triviño, sin ningún tipo de vergüenza o timidez, respondió cada una de sus dudas, confesando sus propios sentimientos, expresando ideas tan privadas que le hacen sentir como un confidente importante, narrando expectativas, sueños, placeres y miedos. Ninguna de sus palabras se intimidaba ante cada enfrentamiento amistoso, al grado que suena como poesía. Cada verso está tan bien formulado que es incapaz de sostener por más tiempo un suspiro.

La vida, compartida en una tarde que se vuelve anochecer, hace que todo se sienta relativamente fantástico.

No conocía a Tulio Triviño de antes, y de alguna forma, se sentía como si llevara toda su vida haciéndolo.

El mundo ya no necesitaba decirle que estaba, completa, y perdidamente, enamorada. Lo supo cuando lo besó, cuando la besó, cuando danzaron bajo la luna y Tulio compartió tanta sensibilidad, mostrando una diferencia ante el mundo que había conocido.

Es único, especial. Tulio era un hombre que no encontraba tragedia en ser frágil y delicado.

Cegada ante el amor, ignora las imperfecciones iniciales de un romance fugaz, lanzándose a sus brazos, creándose un espacio en su pecho, buscando un sitio en su corazón. En el cual cree estar cuando habla sobre él, sobre los dos, cuando sus palabras se vuelven discursos que compiten contra Zhang Jiuling. No era de sorprender que fuera un conductor de noticias de renombre, era un orador sorprendente; conocía como hablar, cuando ser tan vibrante o una brisa; sabía exactamente cómo hacer que sus palabras coincidieran con sus demostraciones físicas.

Se sentía amada, adorada, podía sentir el verano insertarse en su cuerpo como una segunda piel; con un amor cálido, fresco, que se siente misteriosamente joven y etéreo.

Entonces quedó sorda, incluso cuando se profesaba como la mejor oyente que alguna vez podría existir en la vida de su amado. Pasó por alto todas aquellas lagunas verbales.

Y era demasiado tarde para darse cuenta, el verano había concluido, y con ello, la despedida de la que nunca estuvo preparada.

Varias promesas se hicieron, palabras se marcaron al fuego, y su corazón se coló entre las maletas que él se llevó.

Y se fue, quedando solo el “adiós” que murmuró en sus labios.

Solo que Cindy había pérdido sus ojos y oídos, incapaz de recuperarlos, por lo que cada día sus sentimientos se fueron escribiendo en cartas, mensajes, cualquier señal que mantuviera viva la flama.

Entonces pasó: el reencuentro, el rechazo, las mentiras, las negaciones. Señales que debieron devolverle la cordura, el raciocinio. Lamentablemente no pasó, Tulio confesó saber su número, llevándola prácticamente en sus memorias, declarando frente a los testigos que sigue siendo el hombre que conoció en un día de playa.

Entonces lo perdonó, lo sostuvo, volvieron a fundirse entre caricias y sentimientos que solo ellos entenderían, como si hubieran repetido esa historia una tras otra vez. Lo que justificó cada uno de los tropiezos que el hombre egoísta cometió. Lo que la hizo apretar más la venda y tapar sus oídos.

Porque el destino había exclamado, con furia y esmero, que es algo que todos pasan. Opacando su voz que trataba de advertirle que esto quizás solo era ese terrible proverbio: yǒu yuán wú fèn.

Y ellos estaban hechos para estar juntos, él se lo había dicho, ella lo había sentido. Debía ser verdad.

Entonces los años pasan, ellos siguen, a veces en un período longevo sin verse, otros tanto parecen ser solo uno. Están llenos de altibajos, de malos ratos, de chispas electrizantes: son una relación real. O eso es en lo que se trata de convencer para esas alturas.

No importaba cuántas veces sostuviera su mano, no importaba cuántas veces lo besara, no importaba cuántas veces recorrieron el cuerpo ajeno con adoración. No importó. Ni siquiera todas esas veces en que le dijo que la quería; era una conversación vacía, un monólogo aprendido.

Eran palabras maravillosas, pero no son más que un guion en el que ambos quieren creer.

Solo que no pueden, al menos, él no puede.

Cindy lo había visto con los años, incluso si no desease admitirlo, Tulio era otro. Más no sabe cuál Tulio es el verdadero o el desconocido, ya que cuando él habla, cuando verdaderamente habla, sus ojos se iluminan, sus mejillas se tensan; la luna menguante incluso se posa en su rostro, dibujando la sonrisa que haría sonrojar a cualquier estrella. Es un cielo claro, radiante, una noche estrellada. Y es tan apasionado, tan ligero, tan libre.

El problema es que no recuerda haberlo visto nunca con ella.

Quizás al inicio lo hizo, quizás cuando hicieron formal su relación.

El problema es que los “quizás” nunca son una certeza. Mucho menos, cuando está segura de haber descubierto esas características cuando su pareja era quien no se percataba que se había deshecho de su propia fachada cuando su mejor amigo estaba cerca.

Había escuchado sobre él, tantas anécdotas del pasado que sería imposible de enumerar, había visto el orgullo que siente al presentarlo como una de sus relaciones más longevas, presumiendo de la genialidad contraria, yendo en contra del todo el egoísmo que lo caracteriza. Un desconocido, o quizás, la versión pura del mismo. No ha dejado de debatir en eso desde que le carcome la cabeza, especialmente, cuando no es el único en reflejar tales microexpresiones. 

Juan Carlos Bodoque a su consideración era ruin, un mentiroso, indigno y sin una pizca de orgullo; no merecía su atención, más la obtuvo, porque conseguía lo que ella no hizo durante todo ese tiempo: a Tulio Triviño. No solamente a ese hombre encantador que sabe recitar las más dulces poesías, o hacer las más terribles humillaciones en algo dulce, sino al hombre que habla sin usar palabras, al que toca y te deja tatuada la piel con su roce, al hombre que no le importa dejar de lado, por un efímero segundo, su existencia para brindarle al otro todo lo que desea. Lo que sería injusto, si no fuera porque, de hecho, el apostador parece poner todo el juego sobre la mesa y él se abalanza, a su vez, en darle lo poco que tiene.

Y duele, duele increíblemente cuando escuchas y ves todo lo que no has deseado en la vida, ver que los intentos son solo eso, fracasos.

Porque sin importar cuánto se esfuerce, nunca tienen esas pequeñas conversaciones tan profundas. Nunca conversan con la mirada. Nunca hablan. No como quisiera. Y desearía tanto poder estar en su lugar, desearía poder tener el privilegio que la entidad arrogante desprecia por el miedo natural a ser iluminado por un astro tan intenso, a ser amado, querido de verdad.

Y tuvo que admitir que comprendía ese miedo, porque ella también estaba horrorizada de lo mucho que estuvo, y está, enamorada. Porque se siente como una vitalidad que en esos instantes la está matando.

Deseaba gritar, gritarles, reclamar a todo pulmón a Juan Carlos qué le daba derecho a ser la persona que Tulio escogió, a pesar de que este mismo no era consciente de ello. Qué le daba derecho de ser acreedor de sentimientos que no parece querer consigo.

Anhelaba tanto poder exigir que dejara ir a Tulio si él no podía quererlo como ella lo hacía.

Más no puede y acalla, escuchando con mayor cuidado, desenredando los mensajes inconscientes; sobreviviendo a sus pequeñas conversaciones en las que suplica, en el fondo, ser la razón por la que existen.

Lamentablemente nunca lo será. Ya lo aceptó. O al menos eso trata de hacer.

Sigue siendo doloroso, una atrocidad tener que verles, especialmente ahora que su amor es libre de ella pero encadenado a esa bestia que se suaviza con el toque de la margarita. Y desearía odiar a Tulio, desearía poder incriminarlo por darle esperanzas…lo que, definitivamente, no es enteramente su culpa. Ella inició con esa idea, él había rehuido de eso apenas tuvo la oportunidad. Luego cuando ambos se encontraron, creyeron, más ingenuamente de su parte, que lo suyo tendría salvación.

Solo que es imposible salvar algo que estaba extinguido.

Es cruel, insensible y un antagonista completo. Más no puede manchar su imagen por más que quiera. 

Sigue enamorada de sus pláticas, de sus palabras, de la pasión que hay tras cada oración; ama a Tulio, incluso si todo lo que dice nunca será para sí. Lo ama aún cuando duela; porque su corazón quebradizo aún palpita fuertemente por él.

¿Pero qué más quedaba?

El Tulio que ama no existe, no existió, ni existirá.

Solo es un recuerdo de ese verano del que nunca se va a recuperar en totalidad.
