So I ofc adore all of the art and fics about Grocky exploring each other’s bodies in the name of science while road tripping to Erid. That said, one thing that’s always in the back of my mind is that Rocky is an engineer, not a scientist. I feel like while he is extremely curious, he’s more likely to want to know just enough to know how something works, and then once he's reached that point he wants to move onto something new. Adrian, however, I do hc as a scientist, specifically a biologist (specifically specifically an ecologist but still).

What I'm saying is that I think Rocky learned exactly enough about Grace’s digestive system to understand how to keep Grace healthy and not a whit more (ew eating gross gross gross) and then one day he walks into Grace’s house in the biodome and Adrian has their claws fully in Grace’s mouth

as an optimist i dream of a beautiful world where people are fucking normal about aromanticism

[floralasshat]

At first I read “as an optometrist” and was just ready to accept the statement as is like oh yeah maybe some kind of pun about if people’s views weren’t clouded by hatred and biases they could be normal about aro and aspec in general but then I reread it was like “sigh, time for my nearsighted ass to go back to the optometrist.”

[knifearo]

as an optimist i dream of a beautiful world where all these beautiful aromantic people get to go to the optometrist

[squidong]

misread aromanticism as astigmatism

A series of events:

1. I put in an Annual Leave request form almost 3 weeks ago and my boss has not approved it yet

2. I went into my office today and replaced every single writing utensil with crayons in preparation for April Fools Day on Monday

3. Whilst searching for pens to remove, I found my unsigned Annual Leave form in my boss’s drawer

4. I placed my unsigned Annual Leave form in a photo frame and put it on his desk

5. The frame I used was from a photo of his kids that I deemed less important than my Leave form

6. My boss sometimes goes into the office on Saturdays to work

7.

[shutupmerlin]

Happy 2 year anniversary to the post that my old boss allegedly now has framed in his office, next to the recovered photo of his children.

It’s so hilarious to me reading fics where Grace talks to other Eridians and uses gender neutral terms for every single one of them EXCEPT for Rocky

He learned that Eridians have no gender but it was too late for Rocky he already got hit with the boy beam

All Eridians are agender except for Rocky who is AMAFC (assigned male at first contact)

[cedardivine]

no wait yknow what. it gets its own post

everyone gets onto eva stratt for the "think about it long time" vs. "you have three hours" thing but

operating on book canon a little bit: if grace couldn't do it-- if he said no*-- the alternative was to scramble and fly in the next most qualified volunteer, who had 0 training, 0 knowledge of astrophage, and was not an astronaut. three hours could have been three hours of training for that replacement. three hours could have been three hours of preparation for grace, if he said yes

eva stratt gave grace three hours. not to decide, necessarily, because the decision was going to be made the way it was no matter what. but three hours to come to terms with it, to grieve, to mentally prepare himself. three hours that could have been spent giving humanity a better chance to survive

she borrowed three hours that she didn't have to give grace space to process. to get himself together and come to her, teary-eyed but resolved, and say yes.

and he still said no to her. she gave him everything and he said no. he forced her to force him. she gave him three hours she didn't have. i feel so sick about eva stratt

[lukeishope]

No because like they let them pack a karaoke machine on the Hail Mary. Do you understand me. Stratt saw the Hail Mary crew having fun and singing karaoke and then she made sure there was a karaoke feature on the frickin Hail Mary for them. So they could have fun together. On their suicide mission. SHE GAVE THEM A KARAOKE MACHINE Y’ALL DO YOU UNDERSTAND, QUESTION???

How to write a character with tourettes (by someone with tourettes)

So here it is:

when writing a tic, don’t write “*tic*” write the actual thing out. such as “My tics acted up, causing me to punch my chest hard” or ““Fuck!” I ticced”

don’t suddenly remember the characters tourettes or use it for dramatic affect. yes, it can cause some dramatic moments in your story, but dont do the “oh fuck i forgot to write in their tourettes for the past ten chapters, hm well maybe i can make them twitch violently during a fight”

also, dont make their tourettes their entire character, were people, not walking disorders.

DO YOUR RESEARCH: 

some basic facts include:

10% of tourettes havers have swearing tics

for it to be tourettes, it has to appear before age 18 or anytime from a traumatic brain injury

there are different types of tic disorders

comorbid disorders are common

TIC ATTACKS: they dont last two seconds and can be very traumatizing. they hurt like hell and tire the person out

Those are some basic things on how to write a character with tourettes/tics, feel free to leave more suggestions in the reblogs

[sentimental-androids]

Here’s some more information on tic attacks and tics in general because I feel like it’s necessary!

Tic attacks:

Are basically a rapid succession of tics, usually more severe than usual. For me, for instance, rather than just short humming tics, I’ll have tics where I’m full on moaning. Punching tics get harder. Often rather than just my head jerking, it’ll be several parts of me jerking. This is just my example.

Can last anywhere from a couple minutes to hours. I’d put it at an average of 15-30 minutes, but I’ve had attacks last as long as 2-3 hours.

Are not a daily thing. They can be triggered by prolonged stress, anxiety, and fatigue, and can happen more than once in a day, but that’s like. Worst case scenario. You might be able to tell if one is happening or going to happen when it starts getting worse, but you definitely don’t plan for them, and once a day is kind of unrealistic. Genuinely, if you’re having tic attacks once every day something is seriously wrong and you should probably be seeing someone for that.

Tics:

Are repetitive noises or actions made uncontrollably.

Are NOT one off things. If your character is going to develop a tic, keep that tic. They don’t just go away. They might be less common in the future, after being replaced by a new tic, but they don’t really ever fade entirely. I STILL have a tic from when I was younger, for example.

Basically, there’s a trend going around where people think tics are just funny noises you can’t control, when really that’s just part of it. They are REPETITIVE, as well, and not enough people realize that.

They can be anything you can imagine. My character has clicks and whistles as his primary tics. I have finger snapping tics, humming tics, verbal tics, which, you can get creative with but keep in mind not every one has copralalia, I have twitching tics, clicking tics, I have a tic where I sniff my fingers. Deadass. They can be literally anything.

Other notes:

You don’t necessarily need to say they’re tics, or point out that they have a tic disorder. And if you DO, don’t have anybody make a big deal of it. You can literally just say that “name made clicking noises as he walked, his stress peaking.” That works. Not everything needs to be tic centered. In fact, I’d argue that very little needs to be tic centered. If your character with tourettes is only known for their ticcing, then are you really writing positive rep? Or are you just including a token disabled character?

Some tics have triggers. Some tics will only come when they’re triggered.

Tics get worse when you’re stressed, when you’re tired, OR when you’re thinking about them. The goal is to not focus on your tics, that’s the only thing that really calms them for a lot of people. Sound difficult? That’s because it is. :)

Fun fact!! Tics are contagious! No, not really, but they do actually trigger each other even in other people. I once had a vocal tic in front of my friend who also has a tic disorder and they experienced a motor tic in response. I personally found it fascinating how their brain knew that my random noise was a tic and knew to tic back-! But that’s just me.

Ho boy that was a lot, I hope this helps some of you writers out there.

[rainfeather13]

Everyone SHUT UP she’s TRENDING !!!!

[abyss-coalition]

I hate tics not just because they're embarrassing, but what do you mean we can go months without a single tic but the moment we think about it again or see content related to tics/tic disorders we get tic attacks
