I don't think this is an appropriate response to an article about South Asian farmers losing their teeth because temperatures are now reaching 45 Celcius.

The average Tumblr blogger has such poor manners that even a pig would be embarrassed to bring them home to its mother.

When the Heat Steals Your Smile

After I suspected a climate connection to tooth decay, I conducted systematic saliva pH testing across my patient population and documented

okay so i think i found the article op's (and me in my tags) talking about. being exposed to over 40 celsius (120 farenheit or so) for the whole day means youre sweating a LOT (the article says rashid- the farmer at the centre of the text- drinks around 17 liters a Day. humans usually only need 3, so i presume the rest is mostly used for sweat). so much so that the organizm reroutes water from other parts of itself to not die of heatstroke - salivary glands included, which means that 1. they have very little saliva in comparison to a healthy human being 2. what little their bodies DO produce is incredibly acidic, falling to ~5.5 ph from the ideal of 7ph. Teeth dissolve. Quickly. There's a mention of someone losing 8 teeth in two years

im not reading the whole article now (headache -_-), but later on the author of the article says about 30 million people (employed in agriculture) are at risk for extreme dental health problems. 30 million people at risk of not being able to eat solid food. 30 million people at risk of not being able to find work. being able to marry. being able to be part of their community. being able to speak clearly

this is. fucking horrible feels like an understatement, but it is the best i have. this exceptionally, terribly inhumane, and the pakistan goverment's lack of a plan to adress this is embarassing

Hey! I made a new illustration of the Super Mario Galaxy movie! Baby Mario and Luigi are so cute 😭💖 I hope you like it!

[rubysapphrald]

i feel so defensive and protective of people with ARFID like if i had a disorder that made my brain register 90% of food as poison for no reason and i had a bazillion people on the internet constantly calling me a manchild who needs to just grow up and stop being a picky eater i would start killing people

[rubysapphrald]

people with ARFID and people with very few autism safe foods and people with contamination OCD and people in ED recovery and everyone else with a complicated relationship with food that no one takes seriously GET BEHIND ME!!!!!!!

So I watched the new Christopher Nolan trailer and I'm gonna be honest: I don't think he even played Super Mario Odyssey. Not a single power moon in that whole trailer.

‼️COMMISSIONS ARE OPEN‼️

Here's some info:

Hey y'all my laptop died last night! I luckily can do the essentials on my tablet and phone but I really really hate using mobile devices for things. My main thing is I was hoping to go back to school soon and I literally can't without a laptop 💀💀💀.

Add on to that my loans that I can barely afford already went UP and I did not have a great day yesterday.

Any little bit helps!! Any money made from comms will go directly towards getting a new laptop and/or keeping up with loans. If you cannot afford a comm that is fine but reblogs are greatly appreciated! Please check out my art tag for more references of my work, and my website if you're interested in ordering!

Thank you!!

[illdothehotvoice]

I should specify that every single dollar of my paycheck goes towards my student loans so I am literally incapable of saving up from my job alone 💀. If I do it's going to take over a year because if I'm lucky I have like $80 left after everything goes through (and that's not accounting for the fact that my loans just went UP 💀💀💀)

"For years Black parents believed that getting our children into better schools and neighborhoods was the surest path to opportunity. But now many of us are wondering: what does it cost to be the only Black child in the room?

Look, our kids being in predominantly white spaces can open doors. There’s no question about that. But we must understand that there is an underside to those opportunities. The question many parents should be asking isn’t just what our children gain from these spaces, but also what they might lose if we aren’t intentional about keeping them grounded in their own culture.

Let’s face facts. When we talk about raising Black kids in predominantly white spaces, we usually focus on academics and future opportunities. What we also need to discuss is what constantly being “the only one” does to a child’s sense of identity.

Research shows us that Black children as young as 10 are viewed as older and less innocent than white children. (10! They are only babies.) That means many of our kids learn early that they have to think about how they’re perceived in ways their classmates who need sunblock 3000 to go outside in the summer never do. They become experts at managing how the present themselves to others before they are even old enough to understand why.

But there is another, greater danger. And it’s something much quieter that you might not know is happening before it’s too late."

Because I've been asked about it, Imma share this article that came across my dash. 👍🏾

Not to derail, but Black people need sunscreen too. The idea that they don't is believe to be a major factor in the higher incident and fatality rates of skin cancer among people of Color compared to their white peers.

[creatingblackcharacters]

We know that. It was a joke.
