#tw scales

[monetandcookies]

Wait omg this is driving me so crazy did anybody else have a day in school where in gym you lined up in height order one line boys and the other line girls, and then one by one you stepped on a scale where your gym teacher would yell out your weight to someone with a clipboard, or is this just a texas thing

[gently-decaying-flowers]

chars friendly reminder!!!

don’t step on the scale.

don’t do it.

The place that’s gonna steal my wisdom (teeth) is asking for my weight and if it’s around the average how the hell do I tell them I’ve never once known how much I weigh and I don’t know how weights work????

[spready0urwingz]

i’ve been kind of annoyed at myself today, few days ago i lost a kilo and now i’m back again and my weight just keeps staying in the same range. ugh. i think tomorrow i work and run my errands then check the scale later or if not then thursday i’ll see how much i am, because honestly i’ve been on the edge of a binge for a few days now and i’m proud i haven’t. just getting annoyed that the number hasn’t really changed even when excising but i guess we’ll see later tomorrow or thursday…

I am doing not good today. Stressy start to the day. Not functioning at work at all. Have counselling later today which I think is also stressing me out. Ate for an extra day over the weekend that I wasn't going to so feel really bad about that...i wanna roll up into a ball under my desk and just sleep.

Going to try earphones and see if that helps me actually do some work before I get fired.

I'm just thinkin' about how Eda pushed Raine away because of the curse.

She was afraid to let them in. She was afraid to ask them for help, or share how she was feeling...she was scared to show the side of herself that was messy and dangerous and painful and (in her mind) unlovable.

But when she finally let Raine see who she actually was...

...this was their reaction.

...they love all of her. Including those messy and dangerous and painful parts.

TW for blood

Stayed up way too late drawing my boys & am too tired to think of a caption rn, but wanted to post anyway ✌️

something the women in my family are absolutely flabbergasted by every time it comes up is the fact that i don’t own a scale.

“how do you know how much you weigh??” they cry.

“i don’t.” i simply respond.

“you look thinner, have you lost weight?” they ask at christmas.

“i dunno.” i say as i check on the turkey.

“you look bigger, have you gained weight?” they probe, as if my weight rests on their shoulders.

“i’m not sure, but it’s fine if i have.” i respond with a casualness they cannot comprehend.

“don’t you want to know if you’ve lost or gained?” they inquire over cups of coffee and a plate of untouched cookies.

“i do.” i take a sip. “which is why i don’t need to know.”

“we don’t understand.” they say.

“i’ll drive myself mad if i know. it’s been a question i’ve been looking for the answer to since i was in the seventh grade and my weight was the topic of conversation for the first time; the stretch marks on my calves puberty brought being questioned and condemned. and so i started weighing myself once a day. then twice a day. i gained weight as i grew and was told to stop. i got depressed when i was 16 and the weight i gained was more concerning than the scars on my thighs. the critiques turned to compliments during my first year of college when i’d started skipping meals and my body had to feed itself because i wouldn’t. everyday i stepped on the scale and smiled as i watched that number get smaller and smaller. hunger felt like victory. i started doing drugs that took away my appetite and then my strength. and started feeling guilt when my stomach felt full. and suddenly every time i looked in the mirror i hated what i saw. the more weight i lost, the better i was supposed to feel. each remark on another part of my body lost felt like a slap to the face. i was told i looked good but i knew i wasn’t good enough. and so i tried harder. and then i started to get dizzy when i stood. and i ignored it like i’d learned to ignore my hunger. and then one day at work i dropped like the weight that was never enough after i bending at the waist to grab a milk cap from the floor. and when the darkness faded, i was surrounded by panic as an ambulance was called. and then i was tested and prodded and poked because they thought something was wrong with my heart. and the problem persisted but they never found out why. but i’d known all along. and then i left home and its scale behind. and moved into a new home that was mine. so i bought plates and sheets and art for the walls. but i didn’t buy a scale. then every time i walked down an aisle i’d see the them and pause. and i’d think about the hunger i now kept at bay. and even though i didn’t know how much i weighed, i didn’t notice my body had changed. and i’d think about how i hadn’t been dizzy for months. and how i hadn’t fainted for longer. and then i’d keep on walking. and now most days i like how i look.”

“but don’t you want to be skinny?” comes their quiet response.

“i want to be myself in whatever body i have.”

they stare in disbelief. so i shrug my shoulders, and grab a cookie. and i smile at them as i swallow the first bite.

brennan's prompt for gastronauts HAS to be "heaviest", there's scales in the foreground and everything

supporting evidence:

with brennan having stated multiple times that heaviness is the most important component of a meal for him - the most famous being this whole bit from dear hank and john (thanks @deepblueink2d)

Mostly Hiring manager, but HR manager and PR manager too

too much power (part of an art trade with @hrokkall where we tried to mimic each other's styles)

no blood under the cut

Hello, finally made reference sheets for Tidally Locked au. I also changed Narinder’s design a little bit, I didn’t like how the first one’s coloring came out. Sorry if my handwriting is bad

Giant Scale Insect

I got a bit of a shock when I saw this thing.

At first I thought it might've been the larva of those big leaf beetles I found. Was very surprised to discover it was a scale insect.

Unidentified, genus Monophlebulus
