I accidentally glitched out an animation I was working on and created a perfect example of what the passage of time feels like to someone with ADHD

Made a thing…

[feminismisstillahatemovement]

Very sad to hear Sinead O'Connor is apparently dead, no cause known yet but presumed suicide, as she's attempted the same several times the past few years.

She was an enormously talented woman, trapped in a body and mind that was obviously perpetually, ceaselessly, tormented and troubled her whole life long, so I always felt great affection for her, and humored all her many crazed proclamations at every point of her life: whatever she declared herself to be one year, she was going to declare herself something completely different three years later: Today she's a Catholic Priest, the next she's a Rastafarian, now she's converted to Islam. And so on.

But what drove her to such extremes was an original and courageous mind attempting above all else to make sense of the world and find answers while she was here: sometimes she got it wrong; sometimes she got it right: The entire world said she was crazy for tearing up a picture of the Pope on TV and condemning the Catholic Church for its sexual abuse of children: thirty years later and everyone you know agrees with her.

And throughout the continual chaos and devastation of her life, at the center of the cyclone remained, unwavering, that roaring Celtic soul and unmistakable voice: there was no-one like her in song before, and we won't see another like her again. I'm thankful she lived at the same time as me, and I hope she's found peace.

Most of the world seems to regard her as a one-hit wonder for "Nothing Compares 2U", but these are the songs I've most loved and first think of when I think of her, so I'll post them here:

Lost it at “roaring Celtic soul” and I won’t be coming back.

as the media begins a public outpouring of grief at the passing of shuhada sadaqat, the artist known better as sinead o'connor, i’d ask us all remember three things:

first, sadaqat formally converted to islam and changed her name to shuhada sadaqat in 2018 (though continuing to perform under the name sinead o’connor). 

second, sadaqat was a survivor of magdalene laundries, having been sent there for shoplifting and truancy at the age of 18. magdalene laundries were state-sanctioned, chruch-run “homes” for over 30,000 women who were “incarcerated for transgressing the narrow moral code of the time,” as well as girls with mental health issues, pregnancy outside of marriage, petty crime, and social dysfunction. conditions were abysmal: girls were treated with violence and aggression, corporal punishment was common, and it was almost impossible to leave without outside help. many women remained in these “laundries” for many years. investigations were presented to the united nations committee against torture after finding that these laundries and their exploitation amounted to human rights violations and torture. the discovery of a mass grave at one such location in 1993 became a national scandal. 

third, when sadaqat protested child sex abuse in the catholic church during her snl performance in 1992, in which she tore a photograph of john paul ii and threw it at the camera with the words “fight the real enemy,” she was met with mockery and ridicule and almost entirely blackballed. this was before the catholic church had acknowledged or apologized for systemic child sex abuse and nearly a decade before the boston globe broke their investigation of allegations against paedophile priests. because she was a woman who had the audacity to speak the truth about a corrupt system. shuhada sadaquat was more than an artist.

edit as of 27 july: the original post has been edited to better reflect sadaqat’s name change (and i apologize for the unedited reblogged version).

Randomly Elderly Dood at the Cake Bar: *looking down at my platter full of mini bite desserts* Ohh, you’ll never keep that slim figure if you eat all that!

Me (a healthy full figured human mostly made of arse): Don’t worry! This figure is mostly fuelled on cream and carbs.

Also me: *proceeds to eat ‘all that’ dessert and return for a second plate because life is for living and if the food is delicious live la dolce vita*

To the worried person in the comments: 

No, a hummingbird’s heart will not stop if it stops moving. You’re possibly thinking of Spoink, which is a Pokemon that supposedly powers its heart by bouncing, and as such can’t stop moving. Hummingbirds don’t sit often because they’re busy looking for food, but they can and do sit. The females sit on eggs in nests, after all, and they do have to sleep. 

[sindri42]

Fun fact: the leg muscles of a hummingbird are so stripped down to save on weight that they cannot walk. They can step sideways along a branch or other perch, but they cannot go forward without taking flight.

However they absolutely do stop moving. In fact, hummingbirds hibernate! Overnight. Instead of sleeping. Because if they tried to sleep like a normal animal their hyperactive metabolism would mean that they starve to death before breakfast.

Unrelated fun fact: the primary Aztec god of war would take on the form of a hummingbird, and the souls of the bravest warriors were said to turn into hummingbirds in order to join him after death, presumably because every hummingbird is approximately four grams of pure concentrated asskicking which fears no man nor beast and will gladly throw down with somebody seventeen thousand times their size if offended.

this is a really cool post and i love seeing such a small bird but reading “No, a hummingbird’s heart will not stop if it stops moving. You’re possibly thinking of Spoink” killed me
