Hello! I am Cinnamon, an avid artist and writer! I am bisexual, and I use any pronouns. I am an age regresser, so that’s a fun fact! A bit about me is I like cats, drawing, animating, writing, cooking, hiking, rock climbing, and biking! Stuff you will most likely see on my blog is my own art, animations, funny stories, or shitposts, and a LOT of reblogs. Stuff I will reblog is dc/batman stuff, gravity falls content, things that make me laugh, or just whatever catches my fancy. My ask box is always open, so feel free to ask me anything! I also love role playing, if y’all want to do that. TERFs dni 🥰

the worst part of summer is that people get sooo comfortable expressing their disgust at having to see other people’s bodies. they’re always complaining about wrinkly old men at the nude hot springs or fat women in bikinis at the beach. I hate that shit. if you’re not capable of being normal about bodies you personally don’t find attractive, just turn your head to look at something else! and if you’re not smart enough to do that, then at least do the rest of us the courtesy of suffering in silence, because we don’t wanna hear your weird comments. thanks.

One of my colleagues won their client, a tenant, a large judgment against a landlord. The landlord has refused to pay the judgment, and yesterday filed a motion arguing that they shouldn't have to, because the don't have the money, and the court needs to consider their inability to pay :( :( :(

And I think, in a just world, every single tenant that property ever evicted for nonpayment of rent should be mailed a copy of that order and be given the opportunity to speak on the record in the upcoming hearing.

Weirdly, the more bored and resigned I sound about getting a medical thing checked out the more efficiently they check it out. Like, "Hi, I have had 4 pulmonary emboli and I'm having leg pain which is probably not a clot but I'd feel very stupid if it was and I didn't get it checked out."

ER doctor: you mean if I just send you for a leg ultrasound right now and it's clear you'll leave?

Me, picking up my book: yeah, I'm just gonna read until we get it done

Fastest ER visit ever (it was not in fact a clot but I sure would have felt dumb if it had been)

Or, "hey so this test result came back weird and so I think we have to rule out a benign pituitary tumor."

The more specific I get with what I need the faster they order tests. For the RA diagnosis it was, "hey this is probably some weird post viral arthralgia but could we do an arthritis panel since I've got 27 affected joints?"

If the doctor says something dismissive or they don't know, I ask for them to refer me to someone with more expertise in this area.

I had to go through three different practices to find a spinal surgeon who did not tell me that operating on me would be too dangerous because I'm fat. But the third one was like, "Oh, I'm not worried about you coding, there's just a risk that it won't work. But it has a hundred percent failure rate if we don't try."

I did not code. The surgery worked. Was it perfect? No. Did it drastically improve my quality of life? It gave me my fucking life back. I can sit. I can be out in the world and not in blinding pain.

It is so important to not take dismissals and such as the final answer. I got so much bullshit for so many years. It nearly killed me twice, people blowing off clots as muscle pain or "depression".

Track your symptoms. Make a list. Talk about how it affects your quality of life. Ask for physical therapy, ask for second opinions. If you have an idea of what might be wrong, ask them to help you rule it out. Also ask for patient assistance, nonprofit hospitals have it. You might have to go through their labs and their doctors but it can cover an awful lot.

Take a friend with you, or a family member. My pcp asks if I want a chaperone (I don't) but literally having an extra person with you can help.

Being me feels like a full time job sometimes, medically, but no one else is stepping up to it, you know?

There are currently more bills attacking trans youth’s right to play sports across the U.S. than there are trans youth in school sports. @aclu.org

sure you have the power of friendship on your side but have you considered that we have the power of EVIL friendship on ours?

one of my favorite phrases to pepper into conversation is “i like the way you think! you’re hired!” particularly in contexts where it makes absolutely no sense

barista at the coffee shop recommends a good drink. nurse at the doctors office finds a clever solution to something. my actual boss when she makes a suggestion.

Not to reinvent the wheel over here but humanity is sooo right about tea. It really is the perfect finnicky little thing to do. You can use it as an excuse to get up and transition to the next thing for yourself or with others; you can use tea as the centerpiece for socializing; you can use it as a meditative device or a comfort ritual or as medicine or to soothe pain or to set intentions or go to bed or to wake up. And most tea is pretty inexpensive, healthy and sometimes you can just harvest the ingredients yourself. And there's a set amount of time it takes to heat up the water and prepare your cup and let it steep, which is all part of a ritual that makes it fast but not instantaneous which is. Good.
