I hadn't thought about it before, but after looking on a few websites, it seems that the hot sensation I feel in my arms (and sometimes legs) when anxiety rises is the fly or fight instinct getting ready to either of those impulses. My usual involuntary response is to retract and try to "cover" myself (crossing arms, if it's a conversation), but I guess those things are not mutually exclusive.

[bookrightcorner]

Okay, serious question: do you agree or disagree with the next conversation?:

X: Who's usually the favorite brother, Sam or Dean?

Y: Well, depends on the season.

I'm rewatching Supernatural from the S1 at a friend's house (her first time actually watching).

S1Ep21: John says he wants his sons to live and Mary alive.

Friend: Yeah, well, that one is kind of a bit more complicated.

Me, remembering later seasons after Amara: -Shuts up and smiles-.

[bookrightcorner]

Now S2Ep1. That weird spirit that attacks hospitalized people.

Her: It's going to be the Death or such.

Me, smiling and thinking about Death: Do I give an answer or do I shut up?

Her: Shut up. But it's gonna be the Death.

Me: -Grins like a clown-.

(Also, she's realizing, because of John's idea to save Dean, that John has a huge lack of communication skills.

Me: Yeah, that's for all of them. They're incapable of communicating.

Her: ...Shit.)

[bookrightcorner]

S2Ep10: Every single time Gordon Walker calls Sam "Sammy": "THEY ALREADY TOLD YOU NOT TO CALL HIM SAMMY!"

Sam knocks him with the gun after another "Sammy" and says "It's Sam": "SEE???"

[bookrightcorner]

Gabriel's first appearance: I didn't remember it was such a funny episode 😂 They have such a realistic siblings' banter...

[bookrightcorner]

S2Ep20: After Dean is sent into a parallel universe by the djinn:

"Is he stuck in a Groundhog Day?"

I wish I could tell her about "Mystery Spot"(?)

BTW, the guys would have it waaaay easier when they ask university professors or such if they said they're investigating for a book.

Does anyone know/remember/have that post (writing-prompt-like) with a story of a superhero and the supervillain being siblings and trying to get the other sibling (the Mayor?) to go to family dinners, while another sibling was the District Attorney or something along the lines?

Had another annoying, hope-related dream last night. The thing is that I really hope I could solve some issues, but it's not me who has to change it.

[allosaurusfragilis]

This probably isn't going to change people's minds, but sometimes it is easier to evoke sympathy for dogs than it is to evoke sympathy for trans folks.

Giving money to J.K.Rowling is the same as giving money to eradicate transgender people. I'm sorry, but it's true. Equivocate all you like, but it's as true as the day is long.

[bookrightcorner]

Until recent years (when all her shitty ideas went public), I was a huge fan of those books and movies. For almost twenty years, I collected as much knowledge as I could about it, wrote/read alternative stories about the characters, spent hours talking about it - and yes, criticizing some plot and world-building elements.

I'm also a big LGBTQ+ rights supporter, I've created literary characters that are part of different parts of the community, and under no circumstances could I ever support any kind of discrimination based on origins, gender, or sexuality. One of my best friends (whom I met through that world) is non-binary, and I could never look them in the eyes again and call myself their friend if I kept supporting transphobic public figures.

Let's be real - it can get to be difficult to assume that a big part of your childhood and teenage years is no longer a safe space for those who used to look up to it as a shelter, I won't say otherwise, but those memories cannot be more important than the rights of those who've spent decades fighting for being who they really are. Rowling has mocked trans people, aro/ace people, has been racist directly through her characters, and has publicly stated that her incomes will go to anti-trans policies. We can't take part in her discriminatory campaigns while calling ourselves "good people".

[bookrightcorner]

People can be really stupid.

[bookrightcorner]

I received in a group chat the digitalization of an old newspaper article about Hunter S. Thompson's daily routine. To sum up, it talks about lots of drugs, alcohol, terrible eating and sleeping habits, and a short writing time span at midnight.

At first, I didn't remember why the name sounded familiar, but I thought "This sounds like what the main character of Fear and loathing in Las Vegas would do". I looked for Hunter S. Thompson and... yeah, it's the book's author.

Brains work in a really weird way.

i need people to start caring about trans rights all around the world, not just american. the lok sabha (parliament of india) just passed the transgender amendment bill of 2026 according to which they're removing a person's right to self determination of gender unless they're examined & approved by a medical board. it's hard enough for people here to get a gender defining surgery because of poverty and being shunned by society as is, & now they're taking away their right to exist. the medical boards are bigoted as fuck. despite protests all around the country they passed it. it is so fucking bleak out here.

[trufemale420]

Endemetriosis

Vaginal Thrush

Menorrhagia

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

Fibroids

Very common conditions, causes are unknown or only speculated, long term cures have not been found. Most can cause chronic pain or discomfort, all can seriously impact your quality of life.

[witwitch-deactivated20160508]

Men are so damn privileged they can’t even imagine female bodies have different healthcare needs than theirs and that our healthcare needs are important even if they can’t be affected by one of these conditions.

[hyggehaven-deactivated20200904]

Endometriosis causes excruciating pain and is a leading cause of infertility. Thrush is extremely uncomfortable, and expensive to treat repeatedly; over-the-counter preparations rarely completely eradicate it. Menorrhagia, which I have, makes you anæmic. PCOS causes hormonal symptoms that are socially difficult (facial hair, acne, hair loss, weight gain). Fibroids are so common, and are often treated with a hysterectomy.

Add in fibromylgia, which affects 8x as many women as men, as well as lupus (and almost any other autoimmune condition), systemic exertion intolerance disorder (SEID), iron deficiency anæmia (all of which affect more women than men), and you have well over 25% of childbearing-age women globally living with chronic pain and tiredness.

Chronic pain is overwhelmingly experienced by women, and women are less likely to be taken seriously or given treatment by medical professionals. I went through two years of diagnostics to finally find out I had occipital neuralgia; I felt doubted when I described my pain at every step of the way, but was lucky to have a partner who was persistent in helping me get treatment.

Basically, this is a huge problem, and also one of the reasons I have been considering medical school.

[feminerds]

Don’t forget that most pharmaceuticals go to market without ever having been tested on people with a uterus, lest someone get pregnant… seriously that is the whole rationale behind not testing >50% of the population. This has been legislated against in some countries, but still persists in the of majority drug development because of other regulations, and traditions and laziness. The use of a drug is of course monitored in the population after release, but the people “trying” it in this capacity get none of the insurance, close and regular medical examination or monetary benefit of essentially being in a late stage drug trial. Drugs that are pulled from market after release are sometimes done so on the basis that the dosage is just too high for females/afab people and this is, of course, after they’ve experienced the adverse affects. 

This is why if you get pregnant your doctor will take you off basically any and all medication you’re taking (including mental health medication, can’t imagine any implications/dire consequences there), not because they know it will have an adverse affect on the foetus but because they have no idea. How wonderfully kind of them to prioritise the health and life of an unborn foetus over that of a living person, let’s just hope they don’t become ill whilst pregnant. How charmingly logical it is that they wouldn’t even bother to test drugs in people with a uterus because it’s all too difficult and gosh, darn what an ethical conundrum we’ve been faced with, let’s just not! Which is so in the spirit of capital S, Science!

Indeed, the issue is so severe that, in many cases, folks with uteruses are routinely told that their diseases and disorders are not, in fact, disorders at all, and are just a normal part of having a uterus.

Take menstrual cramps, for example. Everybody knows that cramps are a normal part of menstruation, and that virtually all people who menstruate experience them throughout their lives, right?

Except that’s not right at all.

Yes, it’s true that about two-thirds of individuals who menstruate begin to experience menstrual pain during adolescence, but it’s basically a side effect of puberty, and normally subsides by your late teens. Only about 20-40% of menstruating adults experience menstrual pain on a regular basis - and according to some estimates, as much as 80% of that figure is due to undiagnosed endometriosis or some other underlying medical condition.

Yeah, roll those numbers around in your head: if you’re an adult who experiences menstrual cramps, it’s overwhelmingly likely that your pain is a symptom of some potentially serious medical condition.

And yet we tell folks it’s just a normal thing that everybody has to deal with.

Bonus round: Look up PCOS and gender identity.

Then look up PCOS and diabetes.

[thepageofhopes]

Ok, to show how incredibly important this post fucking is, I just looked up endometriosis and I match just about every sympton, and it would explain not just my incredibly painful periods but many other things as well. I had no idea this existed. Please, read this post and reblog this so others can learn.

[philosopher--queens]

I will reblog this every time because my cousin (a cis girl) went through seven years of pain without being taken seriously until SHE suggested it was endometriosis. And that’s not even unusual - that’s the average amount of time it takes between first symptoms and a diagnosis of endometriosis.

[wickedkhaleesi-blog]

NO KNOWN CAUSES OR CURES. JUST SUFFER. - the doctors diagnosing me with pcos, Fibromyalgia, and endometriosis.

[dynastylnoire]

I was diagnosed with endo when was in my early twenties. Their advice to me was hurry up and make babies because you could be made infertile.

Go on birth control

Or have a hysterectomy

Something else to know is endo spreads. So you can get misdiagnosed for everything but endo because of the location of your pain.

My endo spread to my navel, gallbladder, rectum, ovaries, and vagina. The gallbladder pain caused my side to burn. Went to the er for it 4 years ago and they told me it was acid reflux

When my navel started bleeding when I was at work last fall er docs told me if was an infection.

In both cases I said I have endo but the endometriosis causing these symptoms was ignored until I went to a specialist.

[note-a-bear]

Tl;dr chances are if you have a uterus, you’re suffering under gross medical neglect.

[karnythia]

The only reason my endo isn’t worse is because I had a partial hysterectomy. Of course I wouldn’t have needed it if I had seen a competent doctor before I turned 30…

[mycrofts-spoons]

This isn’t limited to just uterus related things either. Last year I was almost sent home from the hospital with a prescription for pain meds when I had two ruptured discs. I had to demand an MRI, the. I had emergency surgery. You have to be an advocate for yourself.

Me: Why do I feel high blood pressure?
