Happy birthday to my precious one đ„ 0602
I bought the book finally and I just want to know...
if its age appropriate for goslings age two weeks and up?
I am simply too overwhelmed to answer that. the tiny little wings....
I love seeing posts from people who have just started listening to tma and don't know anything yet. like "jon and martin have kind of a wierd dynamic going on, are they gay or is that just me?" yeah idk what you're talking about. I think you're imagining it. personally I don't see anything there
keep thinking about how I wrote in my dissertation about how every time a new form of public/social space emerges it's immediately popular with kids and teenagers who see it as a chance at freedom and then adults colonise it and kick them out. this happened with malls in the 80s and diners in the 50s and pool halls in the 20s. my dad was doing research on this trend in like 1975. and I was like "yeah so this is going to happen to the internet" and then five years later every government suddenly decided to ban kids from everywhere online. I hate being right especially when I don't even get paid for it
med people are so annoying "This family's 8 year old child who was about to go through a major surgery and kept crying that she was hungry so they pitied her and gave her food, she then had a heart attack in the surgery. They're so stupid đ" girl they didn't know that could happen or why it happens. it takes so little time to explain to them that will happen instead of telling them "no food" with no explanation 10 times
"Before surgery, your bodyâs reflexes that protect your airway are relaxed by anesthesia. If thereâs food or liquid in your stomach, it will near certainly come back up and go into your lungs, which can cause choking, a severe lung / heart infection or even a heart attack. Thatâs called aspiration, and it is life-threatening. It's hard, but it's only a single day to prevent near certain death. Not eating or drinking beforehand massively lowers the risk and helps prevent these life threatening situations under anesthesia." <- TIP: patients have brains which allows them to receive information just like you
I have four kids. Iâve had one or another of them need some kind of surgical procedure that requires anesthesia four or five times over the past 15 years.
This Tumblr post is the first time someone has explained to me *why* I couldnât feed them before those instances.
Iâm not stupid. I understood that just fine. Hell, my kids would have understood that just fine. But no one bothered to tell us.
i did know this before having kids (i have six). we have a kid that's needed multiple procedures requiring anesthesia. and every single time, i am asked multiple times if i'm sure he was not given any food or water after a certain point.
every single time i have had to say, "i understand that if he had food or water, he could aspirate it into his lungs under anesthesia. i am not lying to you." THEN someone would make a little note and i would stop being repeatedly asked.
not a single time was that risk explained to me. the only reason it came up was because i already knew. i still don't understand why it isn't standard pre-op counseling or pre-op check information, when me as a parent acknowledging the actual risk also put THE MEDICAL STAFF at ease because i conveyed that i had informed understanding as reason to not lie about giving my kid food.
"maybe some people will get nervous and refuse surgery" okay so they need more counseling about risks and anxiety, not less information in a way that actually does endanger their child or themselves!

im so late to this
Congrats to YQY on winning the poll LMFAOOOO
Even though sometimes I get frustrated, I actually get why some people feel unsatisfied with Given. Since I felt that way at first too.
âMafuyu moved on too fast.â
âWhy would someone commit suicide so easily, and why are we expected to care?â
Those were the parts that initially felt underdeveloped, almost half-cooked.
But Given is one of those stories where your first reading really really really isnât enough. It takes time to understand what itâs actually doing, and to adjust your expectations accordingly. Once it clicks, Istg, you realize itâs a very tightly written, character-driven narrative. If you only approach it as literature rather than just a BL romance, or only as romance, tbch.
Because the focus was never really Yuki and Mafuyuâs love story. Yuki Yoshida is the prelude to Mafuyu's journey. The story is about Mafuyu learning to live with grief after losing someone deeply important to him.
And importantly, as the story progresses, we begin to understand that Yukiâs suicide isnât reducible to that one argument. There are deeper, underlying issues at play, but theyâre never fully spelled out. And that lack of clarity is intentional. Because most of the time, especially with teenage suicide, there isnât a single clean, explainable reason. Itâs messy, layered, and often incomprehensible to the people left behind.
That ambiguity is part of Mafuyuâs grief.
And thatâs exactly why Mafuyu âfalling in love quicklyâ with Ritsuka Uenoyama is something weâre supposed to *examine*, not dismiss.
Mafuyu doesnât just âmove on.â Heâs grieving all the way through Umi e. His guilt, his panic when it finally hits him that Yuki is truly gone, his relief at ultimately learning to let go, those moments are very deliberately written.
At the same time, what he feels for Ritsuka begins almost immediately and runs parallel to that grief, attraction, emotional pull, dependence, and a kind of quiet reverence.
And this is where the distinction matters.
What Mafuyu feels for Ritsuka is clearly romantic in nature, it involves vulnerability, longing, and a willingness to open himself up again. What he had with Yuki, on the other hand, reads very differently. Itâs closer to familial attachment at its core, shaped by proximity, history, and emotional reliance, paired with a codependent dynamic that included a sexual component. Which is why Yuki is never positioned in Mafuyuâs mind as a âromantic rivalâ to Ritsuka.
Because the two relationships donât occupy the same emotional category.
Yuki represents, familiarity, entanglement, a past kid Mafuyu didnât fully understand until it was gone.
Ritsuka represents, conscious choice, emotional risk, vulnerability, need to surrender self, and a new kind of love that requires adolescent Mafuyu to actively engage with his own feelings. And thatâs the core of Given.
Not a love triangle. Not a competition.
But a story about how someone learns to differentiate, process, and rebuild their capacity to love after loss.
And if you read it that way, a lot of things people call âtoo fastâ or âunderdevelopedâ start to make structural sense.
And stay safe everyone!
i hate it when game devs put âfixed several issuesâ in patch notesÂ
no. tell me what you fixed. i wanna know what the glitch was.
you know those patch notes that are like âfixed an issue where if the player sat in a bush for too long, theyâd become the size of a skyscraperâÂ
i wanna read those. tell me those.Â
Adjusted value of Bees. Now that was a special one⊠because every item in the game had a minimum value, and a beehive was a container for bees, which each had a minimum value⊠which meant the moment one of your dwarves picked up a beehive, your entire fortressâ net worth skyrocketed⊠a value used in determining how powerful the foes that visit and try to murder you are.
Reblogging for the explanation of what âadjusted value of beesâ actually means, because I know several folks following this blog have been wondering.
Okay but youâve all forgotten the best Dwarf Fortress bug of all âFlying creatures give birth in midair, leading to tragedyâÂ
Actually I lied itâs the one where after a major update werewolves and vampires started climbing the nearest tree and refusing to come down. It turned out that heâd given evil creatures the ability to sense each other, but forgotten to set a maximum range on it, so werewolves were aware Hell was underground and trying to flee by climbingÂ
This has to be my favorite patch note ever
My fave dwarf fortress patch note is âi think i made fish too hardcoreâ. IIRC dwarf fortress has universal skills so everything that can swin has the swim skill. physical skills train strength, so increasing swimming will have a knock on positive effect for all physical skills. since fish are swimming all the time this meant fish were constantly raising strength and became unstoppable killing machines
inside me there are two lungs. and one liver. one stomach. a few meters of intestine. there's a lot inside me actually
