Hey if you or anyone you know uses a cane, especially balance, I recently had a really bad flair up and was without one, but I was near a outdoor supply store, and I ended up getting a small hiking stick with a cane handle and let me tell you

1. It's lighter than any cane I've ever used

2. Its telescopic so I can keep it in my car, unlike the "folding" canes that hate being folded

3. It has a spring suspension system to provide a bit of give to your arm, like suspension on a bike, my arm doesn't get sore

4. It COMES WITH different feet for it, you don't have to BUY them seperately

5. Has a wrist strap

It's such a massive upgrade from literally any mobility cane I've ever been sold. Is it as strong as a solid hardwood or steel cane? Hell no. But it can support my weight and I'm about 200 pounds.

Also it was 30 bucks! There are better ones that go higher in price but most canes I've had to buy are more than that and wear out

[oodles-of-boodle]

Do you have a brand name or store name or maybe photo? I'd absolutely love to get one but I can't find anything even remotely similar to what you've described 😭

[itseasytoremember]

That's basically the exact one I have.

Here is a link to it on amazon

I don't *love* amazon but it's accessible to a lot of people. Now I will say this one (like mine) has twist locks, and I'm seeing a lot of comments saying that it's better to buy ones with "flip locks" instead as they're less likely to fail

Here is one with flip locks. I don't have one so I can't speak for quality but L.L. Bean tends to have high quality stuff

[twilightangel83]

Welp. Useful info for me. Maybe for someone else too

Is the actor ugly and untalented or are you just not comfortable with a fat person being in a leading role

they went off with this

hot damn they really did go off with this

[lymmea]

Reminder: this is Trump's America right now. This is a very anti-DEI, anti-queer moment in our nation's history. Lots of groups and companies who used to do surface-level Pride pandering are going to be quiet this year - even if they don't throw themselves fully behind the hate, for optics reasons - because the current administration is making supporting diversity less profitable and more ~political~. So groups and companies who look at the current state of things in the US and say "fuck you, we're supporting the queer community anyway"? Who are going out of their way to stand with us even when it seems more people are standing against us than ever? That means something. That's worth noting.

This year, even more than other years, the Seattle Mariners didn't have to do this. The Seattle Mariners wanted to do this.

HEY‼️ I’ve come to alert everyone that Andrew Rannels is a Zionist (someone who supports the Israeli occupation of Palestine). disappointing but I think people should be aware of this

[morphean42]

Hey so Zionism isn’t a dirty word, Zionism doesn’t support occupation or oppression it’s literally just an ideology to protect Jewish people (you know, the people who had 2/3rds of their population systematically murdered) by allowing them to live on their own fucking native land. Most zionists would not advocate for any of the atrocities the government of Israel is doing and many, like myself, desire a two state solution.

If you’re a fan of Falsettos and you oppose Zionism I don’t trust you. I don’t believe you actually care about Jews.

Hi, I'm a black Sinners fan talking about Sinners discourse again. Mainly about Remmick. Last and final post about Sinners discourse because ooh lord some of you niggas need it

No you don't have to agree with my following opinions and takes

No one can control fandom

No one is trying to control fandom

No you can't dictate what people like and do with their free time on the internet and that goes for both sides

No us black people don't have to shut up about our discomfort despite how "used to it" we are

No us black people won't shut up about our discomfort because we have free will and are autonomous humans like you

No black people are not public enemy #1

No white Sinners fans aren't automatically illiterate because they're white

Yes white Sinners fans should be mindful of the fact that they can't empathise with black media on the same level as a black person would just because they're fucking white and they've literally never lived as a black person

Yes black people will have to put up with most of the fandom favouritising Remmick and Sammick

Yes you non black sinners fans will also have to put up with us not being so happy about it

Yes Remmick is a beautifully written character who is rightfully enjoyed by the public because Ryan Coogler is a genius and fandom is fandom

Yes a lot of black people recognise that Remmick goes into a lot of tropes that many fandoms, especially in Tumblr spaces, favour therefore he will be well-liked. I like him. I like him quite a lot actually and I never said I didn't, I don't think a lot of us did actually

Yes the Remmick favouritism actually does delve into race and racial partiality more than you think it does in some areas of people and that's okay too

Yes you can not consider yourself to be racist and end up actually being kind of micro aggressive about black voices and black media without realising it and that's okay

Yes black people will still be uncomfortable with Sammick no matter how much you want us not to be, it's gonna fucking happen and just like us, you'll fucking deal with it

Yes seeing your favourite character (more so the fandom's actions with them) being hated on is tough but just ignore it and manage your internet time wisely because you can create a space for yourself to enjoy what you enjoy just fine as long as you just press the block button

Yes the implications with Sammick if you really think about it is kind of fucking weird so there are obviously people who are going to dislike it and call out its weirdness

Yes you can still like it despite that because no one gives a shit unless you give them leverage over your emotions

Yes I do actually understand why Sammick is well liked because I'm a queer man who likes to ship so I obviously get what the appeal is

If you enjoy Remmick and you're like, "I agree with all of this so why are you coming at all Remmick fans!!!!!" This post obviously isn't for you, and it obviously isn't for all Remmick fans. I'm a Remmick fan?? I'm a fan of all the characters because they're there for a reason and I love that. Sinners (2025, dir. by Ryan Coogler) is the most beautiful piece of cinema I've seen so far in 2025 and it's definitely one of my favourite films right now and will continue to uphold that spot.

So for the final time, stop acting like niggas actually have leverage over you and your takes because you're the only one giving them that leverage. Just move on because this discourse is annoying and stupid. Like Remmick! Love Remmick! Like Sammick! No one is here to tell you what to do! I won't even tell you to shut the fuck up because you don't have to. It's your fucking blog so who am I to tell you what to do on it. Post what you want, comment on what you want, reblog this and say whatever the hell. My blog is my blog and your blog is yours I'm just saying you white Sinners fans actually be tripping sometimes

[mothmandrivesstudebakers]

You know what gets me about Sinners?

There are two very dark-skinned black women of two different body types who aren't just loved or appreciated by the main characters, but actively lusted after and desired.

Just.. mmfff...

[chicaboom-chic]

Genuine question for the people who ship Sammie x Remmick?

Do you ship Sammie and Remmick because of the following potential that could be explored such as: vampiric eroticism, which has had homoerotic subtexts imbedded into the genre for as long as it had existed, an inherent chemistry between two parties that share similarities through oppression and musical abilities and prowess, the exploration of black queerness in the south.

Or do you ship Sammie and Remmick because you’re a person who needs to insert whiteness where it isn’t at the forefront because you cannot relate to black people, black stories, the black existing relationships of the film sinners or simply because don’t like reading about black relationships? Cannot you not indulge and enjoy the already existing black relationships of the film or must you create ships that centre whiteness?

Explain to me how you can see Remmick turn Sammie’s loved ones, brainwash them and then try to do the same to Sammie (which in itself is a form of a white person using their power to oppress a black person) but think to yourself: “yeah, man. This is hella romantic.”

[made-my-peace-with-all-the-bad]

“And it was the end of the world, and I was dancing with Sally Bowles, and we were both fast asleep” may be one of the greatest lines in cabaret

[richardgreenleaf113-deactivated]

psa to white sinners fans: you can totally like Remmick as a character and as a villain. You can even write your weird little Sammy x Remmick fanfics. Just don’t have the audacity to pretend by ignoring the very disturbing implications of that relationship you’re not completely missing the point of the movie, and definitely stop arguing with people of color (especially Black people) when they say you’re being disrespectful. You’re right - the internet is a place where you can do and say almost anything, but not every bit of criticism is an attack on your freedom of yaoi speech. Just because you CAN doesn’t mean you SHOULD. To a point, you’re exactly like the vampires: you take a piece of art that Black people made, you have little to no respect of understanding of the meaning it holds, and you use it like a puppet for your fantasies. Seeing Remmick’s obsession with Sammy as romantic is a uniquely you guys thing, and it kinda freaks me out. I am not against fanfics, and I respect the effort that you put into them. I think that if you put something out there in the public eye, people have a right to give you criticism for what you say, and pretending that we’re all against self expression is hypocritical when you’re the ones telling us not to say how we feel. so yeah, do what you want, but for gods sake please reflect a little on why you want to stick your nose where it doesn’t belong so desperately.

ps: I’m definitely going to be petty and delete replies I don’t agree with so unless you have a really good and well thought out argument, just block me and move on if you disagree
