“You are about to begin reading Italo Calvino’s new novel, If on a winter’s night a traveler. Relax. Concentrate. Dispel every other thought. Let the world around you fade. Best to close the door; the TV is always on in the next room. Tell the others right away, “No, I don’t want to watch TV!” Raise your voice––they won’t hear you otherwise––”I’m reading! I don’t want to be disturbed!” Maybe they haven’t heard you, with all that racket; speak louder, yell: “I’m beginning to read Italo Calvino’s new novel!””

— Italo Calvino, opening lines of If on a winter’s night a traveler (via thegoddessofthorns)

lesbian are winning at dating apps btw, hands down. THREE people have recognized the disco elysium background I cunningly snuck into one of my photos as a little easter egg and i've only been on there a few weeks. turns out that as I suspected all along I am actually very easy to strike up a conversation with, men are just allergic to putting in any kind of effort.

The worst-sounding piece of advice I've ever been given that does actually work is to frame your health concerns as coming from someone close to you, whom you do not believe. Tell your doctor that you've been having pain and your mom/friend/partner thinks it might be an ovarian cyst, but you don't think so because the pain is much more intense and it has to be something else. This gives your doctor an unseen third party to fight instead of you. They can't just tell this third party, who isn't present, that you pulled a muscle, they now need to prove to this third party that it is not an ovarian cyst.

At which point they will find an ovarian cyst, but they now get whatever fucked up satisfaction they derive out of proving you wrong, because you didn't believe it could a cyst at all, but guess what? They did find a cyst! It's such a good thing you didn't listen to your intuition and came to them to verify your lay diagnosis from that third party! Bonus? Doctor doesn't have to feel like they look stupid in front of a patient, which is really what all this is about. Not your health, why would you think your medical diagnosis is about your health? It's obviously about a doctor's potential ego.

And apparently this works. Apparently you just need to be able to always play 4D chess with your medical professionals in order to find an avenue of advocating for yourself and getting you medical needs met. Isn't that great?

I hate it here, actually.

If you have multiple specialists or move around a lot, you can also say 'one of my doctors mentioned X to me but I can't remember who and I never had it investigated'. Doctors love to one-up each other. Worst case you get dismissed and don't have to lie next time you pull this on a different doctor and best case they do investigate.

i like my psych but I do suspect that my adhd diagnosis was easy for me because I went in actively opposed to the idea of taking medication and he had to talk me around to the idea. it is now a part of my life that i am grateful for every single time I take it but i'm glad I had such a negative outlook when I first went in given the current climate of suspicion around adhd meds.

youtube comment of the day

[annabelle--cane]

the thing about ortus nigenad is that he has to be muscled to all hell, right? if his look is "broad tall fat man in his mid thirties" and the one thing he has going for him as a ninth cavalier is his ability to lug around absurd amounts of bones then that sounds like classic a strongman's build. ortus "depression" "momma's boy" "brought rpf to a gunfight" nigenad logically has to be yolked as fuck and the only reason the text never explicitly states that is because we only ever see him through the eyes of two teenaged lesbians who view him as their lame ass older brother. ortus very possibly might have been hot this whole time.

[wildgeese98]

I've always imagined Ortus looking kinda like this type of elite powerlifter guy but gone to seed a little bit. Pic from this YouTube video of these guys trying to lift a 207kg stone in Scotland.

I feel like he kept up with training to maintain appearances but as the years went on he started skipping out on it more and more in favor of his writing. But even so he's still yoked from a lifetime of training to carry around two backpacks full of skeletons.

And yeah if we weren't seeing events through the eyes of young lesbians we might have had more ackowledgent that he is hot.
