some things I wish people knew more about asthma/asthma attacks :

1. Asthma attacks are not always over when they’re “over.” It can a long time to fully recover from one and it’s terrible the whole way through. Like, days.

2. Some can’t always tell immediately when they’re having an attack. Depending on the situation, it can a minute to clock something’s really wrong + one can easily confuse it with panic/anxiety attacks (and vice versa).

3. I can’t believe I feel the need to say this but ITS FUCKING TERRIFYING TO BE UNABLE TO BREATHE. It’s not an easy or simple illness. It’s a really hard thing to experience, especially during and after a serious attack. Scared to sleep type scary.

4. Yeah, actually, this can and does effect ability to be productive. See above: it’s not an easy illness.

5. Different people have different triggers. For some people it’s things like perfume, for others it might be exercise induced, could be seasonal, could be temperature, etc. etc.

6. Building off the last point, believe people. Don’t tell someone their own limits and force restrictions onto them + Don’t tell them they’re wrong when they say you’ll hurt them because “someone else with asthma you know isn’t bothered by it.”

People know their bodies better then you. Trust them to know when it’s a big deal and when it’s not.

7. Yes, colds and other mild illnesses that effect your lungs can be a much bigger deal. You have to acknowledge that on more than just consept. They’re inconvenient for you but fuel a cycle of loss breath for asthmatics that can be really dangerous.

It wasn’t boomers who made it impossible to survive on a librarian or gardener’s salary - it was rich people. 

Plenty of boomers work as librarians, teachers, gardeners, and so forth, and are finding that as the cost of living skyrockets and corporations take over more and more of the world, that their salary is no longer able to support them.

And thus you have boomers - who understand how much you want to be a librarian because they also work as librarians - going bankrupt, losing their homes, drowning in debt, and dying because of unaffordable healthcare. And they get why you’re becoming an IT specialist instead of a librarian - because they! Know! That you can’t survive! On a librarian’s salary anymore!

On the flip side, the rich people sucking money out of every service and person they can! Aren’t! Always! Boomers! Tons of them are Gen X! And an increasing number are millennials! I haven’t seen a Gen Z billionaire yet but I’m willing to bet there’s a couple by now!

Oh, and it’s not like they “don’t know” how much people want to do these sorts of jobs - they do! That’s how they justify underpaying people, because it’s your passion, you don’t ~need~ to be paid a living wage for your passion.

You have more in common with poor boomers than you do with Kylie Jenner (born 1997). Go and talk to them. Organize with them. You’ll find they have a lot to offer once you stop dismissing them as rich old folks who ruined the economy.

Had a revelation recently and thought it might help other people too.

There is absolutely NO shame in having a ton of projects on the go and switching between or even dropping them on a whim.

Hobbies are meant to be FUN.

You can have 20 writing projects, or knitting, or whatever your thing is, and putting them down for a bit or abandoning them is a-okay.

I personally would never think that someone who started playing a video game and then decided to play another before it was finished was a quitter, so why am I so judgemental towards myself?

Doing your hobbies in a way that brings you joy isn't selfish or weak, it's...literally the whole point of them. Go nuts!

completely untested theory but

i think social media not only has eroded ideas of privacy (”if you have nothing to hide why do you care?”), but in a much more harmful way it promotes the notion that there should be no difference between public thoughts and private behaviour. But this is totally bogus because people behave differently according to different situations, and this isn’t being “fake”, it’s just what navigating social situations in a proficient manner is like. 

The way I behave with my friends and my family, the way I behave in private, is not for public consumption. Nor should it be. Publicness is a matter of choice, it shouldn’t be mandatory. People are not entitled to anyone’s private thoughts on anything. People have a right to decide what they wish to show in public and what they wish to hide.

Some Lovecraftian monsters on labradorite. The fact that painting cosmic horror helped me to calm down says a lot about our current situation.

My fatal flaw is that I wake up on a good pain day and am like chronic illness who? and then behave recklessly and wake up the next day and am like oh yeah. THAT chronic illness.
