So.. .are you like. Alive??

Hello!

Yes I am alive I'm just not on Tumblr a lot anymore. I'm also working on a lot of personal private projects, as well as working night shift, and having extreme burn out.

I've also been on hiatus because my laptop broke so I can't write until I replace it but that costs money. As well as finally getting help with uncontrollable depression, ADHD, and bipolar 2.

(I forget that other people think about me so genuinely thank you for asking!)

HOT TIP!!!

You will drink more water if it tastes good. I’m dead serious. Throw some mint in there, throw some lemon or strawberry or a little flavor packet. Your brain likes things that taste good.

You know why people like lemonade? Flavored water

You know why people like tea? Flavored water

You know why people like koolaid? Flavored water

People like flavored water. Brains like flavored water. It’s like being forced to choose between a rock or a rock with glitter on it. You want the glitter rock

I am once again telling you to drink water

And to absolutely FUCK OFF if you’re going to be a dick on this post

Was thinking of using my manic Depression to try and write. Now I'm thinking what's the fucking point. Nothing I do ever actually works.

I just want to rest.

This is worse. Looking at these you can tell they have no significant monetary value. They were confiscated as a fear tactic. Nothing more.

This picture breaks my heart everytime it appears in my dash. It’s a fear tactic, alright but—

The first one in the left corner: It’s a first communion rosary, and it’s not cheap.

The black one in the first line: That’s a widow rosary and it’s old.

The white one in the second line: is a commemoration rosary. It has a miniature picture in the round part. I haven’t seen that since the 70′s.

In the third line, multicolor one: It’s an Anima mundi, I have only seen those in the hands of Rosary ministery’s old ladies. The oldest ones are from the 80′s after Juan Pablo II came to Mexico for the first time. It’s one of the old ones, I know because the crucifixes are different. The third one on the fourth line: Red and gold. The style is old, the metal is dark, that’s a 50′s rosary, probably a quinceañera one (or it’s maybe older, from the 40′s when the brides carried red roses with their offerings).

The fifth one on the fourth line: It’s a quinceañera rosary with Ignatius’s tear. The style is old and in my part of Mexico is orphan girls who used it. At least it was when I was young. The third one of the fifth line: the blue one with the anchor. That one I have only seen in Veracruz and it doesn’t look new. The fifth one on the fifth line: That’s a 90′s wedding rosary. Black and white patterns were popular on that date. The fourth one on the last line: That’s a first communion rosary from the 30′s. It’s delicate and most probably silver. The rest wrench my heart too, the humble everyday rosaries with wooden beads and knots. Those are cheap and bear the wear and tear of their user handling. But those I described are much more.

Those are mother’s rosaries.

Those are not just rosaries. Those are mementos, that’s the proof of their families stories. They are taking from them the only portable things they can carry to feel the connection to their families. It’s not a fear tactic. Call it like by its name. It’s dehumanization.

remingtxxon

My people are being treated like animals and are being separated from their families.

And some of you son of bitches think that that’s what they get for coming over here because they are illegal.

The main reason they come over here is because the United States of America is made out to be this great symbol of hope where you can come for a better life.

But America doesn’t come close to what is made out to be. Because we can’t even treat people like fucking human beings.

every person can feel freddie’s presence in their souls when they sing MAMAAAAAA UUHHHH, I DONT WANNA DIE, I SOMETIMES I WISH I’VE NEVER BEEN BORN AT ALL with all the air in their lungs i’m not joking

peachdisco

it’s fucking crazy to think about the amount of people who have sung bohemian rhapsody? like it’s such a unifying song, by nature of the fact that so many people know it. it holds so many good memories for me and other people. it’s a song you scream in the car with your friends while you drive around your boring hometown, it’s a song you drunkenly sing with your arm around your best friend, or a song you sing along to with strangers when it’s on in public. it’s bittersweet to think about freddie’s legacy carrying on like that through his masterpiece. freddie carries on because he’s a part of so many people’s good memories and bohemian rhapsody is a huge part of that.

Reblog if you have sung bohemian rhapsody with your friends

reikah-deactivated20190906

every time i see this post i’m reminded of the video of 65,000 people singing bohemian rhapsody in near-perfect harmony

like, what other song can make that claim?

crewdlydrawn-deactivated2022072

Some of the highlights of that video include:

The crowd cheering after the first stanza when they realize what they’re all doing

So many people audibly ‘doing the guitar parts’… like ya do

The sheer number of voices joining the rediculous falsetto (thanks, Roger)

How they all start jumping at the ramp-up “so you think you can stomp me”

Hands up, hundreds, thousands deep for the final “ooooo”s and the last line to close the song

aces-to-apples

Only days before my state went into lockdown, “Bohemian Rhapsody” came on in the restaurant kitchen I’d just been hired at and, no shit, every single worker in that little diner started singing along. Me (the only queer afaik), the manager, all the other kitchen workers, the dishwasher up front, the two people on the counter, all but two of the men over 30. Just belting out Freddie Mercury at the top of their lungs. And you can bet when “sometimes I wish I’d never been born at all” came around, we every single one of us ramped up the intensity and basically made sure Freddie could hear us in the afterlife.

This is informative as heck. Show this to everyone!

mamapluto

This is actually some great info! Why can’t they teach this kind of thing in school??

symbioticsimplicity

Wow, I’ve taken health and sex ed three times during my educational process and never learned any of this. Thanks.

lalatinafeminista

Definitely some important information here!

lacigreen

this is supa awesome. i do think it should be noted that side effects of EC *really* vary. when I took EC I didn’t have any symptoms whatsoever.

queer-raccoon

The more you know~

nickthepigeon

Just a little bit of side information also; EC will not work if you are already ovulating! Be sure to check where you are in your cycle before you bother taking the pill. Ovulation typically occurs right in between your two periods, and an egg can stay alive for 12-24 hours once leaving your ovaries.

This is the Oh Joy Sex Toy comic! They put out regular comics covering a wide variety of sex Ed info, reviews of toys and equipment, and general discussions of sex that you don’t find in school, I highly recommend the comic. They regularly have people of all sizes, shapes, sexualities, and genders portrayed in the comics, and also have guest comics every once in a while.

You can find the comic here: https://www.ohjoysextoy.com

They also have books! https://www.ohjoysextoy.com/drawn-to-sex-the-basics/

OhJoy gave me a better sex education than highschool without a doubt, and it’s handled in a very positive way

Here’s a link just for their educational strips if you’re not interested in the reviews

someone in a fanfic: s-stutters in embarrassment

me, closing the tab: sorry I must go

hellishues

Unrealistic Stuttering: “S-sorry I-I d-d-didn’t m-mean t-to…”

Realistic Stuttering: “Sorry, I uh… I didn’t mean- I didn’t mean to do that…”

When people stutter, they usually reword what they’re saying as they speak, and subconsciously insert “filler words” such as “uh, like, you know,” and etc.

lianabrooks

*puts on speech therapist hat*

ACTUALLY! It depends on why they are stuttering.

A Nervous Stutter results in what is called Mazing, or rewording the sentence. That is the classic “I, um… well I… look it’s just that… so we…” that @hellishhues is talking about. When someone is mazing their words you’re seeing a form of Speech Apraxia where the brain is having trouble forming verbal speech. This can be brought on by brain damage, memory loss, anxiety, nerves, and several other things.

The root cause of a nervous stutter is a disconnect between the mouth and the brain.

With this you will also sometimes see the classic “S-s-s-sorry…” especially if the person has been training to speak clearly and is now at a point of fatigue or stress where they are not mentally capable of forming the words.

The other kind of stutter is a Physical Stutter, sometimes referred to as slurring, and another facet of Speech Apraxia. This stutter is caused when the muscles of the mouth, tongue, and throat are physically unable to form certain sounds. This is most often seen in the very young and victims of brain trauma.

Sounds are acquired at different ages, so a 2-year-old will probably not be able to clearly pronounce certain words (which is why toddler sound so off when they’re written with developed dialogue). These mis-pronunciations are sometimes referred to as lisping, but only if the sounds are run together. If the person starts and restarts the sound because they got it wrong, it can also sound like the classic sound stutter.

But it all depends on why the character is stuttering!

Do they have Speech Apraxia, Audio Processing Disorder, muscle dysfunction, or another medical reason to stutter? (1)

Are they stuttering because of anxiety, stress, or fatigue? (2)

Does the stutter stem from intoxication or blood loss? (3)

All of those will sound different!

1 - Will have mazing, repeated sound stutters, and be the classic stutter that annoys OP.

2 - This is where you’ll see the repetition stutter, mazing, rephrasing, and filler words.

3 - This is where you are more likely to see starts and stops and slurring of words.

My mum has apraxia and I just wanted to say that’s one of the most concise and clear ways I’ve seen it explained, thank you!

bayouboy-alastor

Idk what type it is but I have a stutter where I’ll get stuck on a word and just repeat it until i can physically jolt myself out of it(usually by stomping or smacking a surface) to get my brain to restart the sentance i was trying for, or if overstressed i just give up trying to talk entirely.
