Femme Lesbian (she/her)- late 20s-taken- Disabled

[lazy-crazy-misfit]

I’m writing a fic that explores more of Simon’s background and upbringing in a Real World AU.

Namely, cult stuff.

It’s still hurt/comfort, but I have shaken my dolls around a bit too much at the start.

Some highlights of what I’m trying to do here:

- Grace is a teacher still, dealing with his academic isolation

- Simon is the guardian of his niece who is in Grace’s class

- both are working on healing. They take turns being the one needing help.

- They’re both wildly competent and intelligent. Dorky, but not naive.

Life is too short to fear imperfection.

Be painfully sincere.

Tell people you love them.

Write the shitty story.

Make shitty art.

Start the workout you know you may not finish.

Kiss badly.

Burn the pasta.

Fail a test, try again.

Stumble over your words.

Make dumb mistakes. Try again tomorrow.

Me, refreshing my feed to see new likes and comments on my shitty fanfiction I posted at 4:13 AM

Rocky you can't just say that. I've been saving this Tiger Tiger reference in my pocket for awhile. And I missed my chance with warframe. So bloodmary you got cursed with it. Do actually read Tiger Tiger tho.

“Jayce stares open mouthed from the doorway of the lab. A man who looks strikingly like Viktor is standing by Viktor’s desk, looking through Viktor’s notes, muttering softly to himself in Viktor’s voice. He’s even using Viktor’s cane. But it can’t be the real Viktor. He doesn’t wear clothes like that and he doesn’t style his hair in that way and he definitely doesn’t wear jewellery.

Except, today, apparently, he does.”

I wrote a thing and decided to draw something for it so have a Viktor in a fancy shirt

Ok this is a long shot but, crafts minded people, can anyone think of any crafts that fit this absurdly stringent list of requirements?

Can be done in low light.

Can be done lying down flat.

No mess, ie paint or small beads that could get lost in a bed.

Can be done in intervals of 5-10 minutes - easy to put down and pick back up without messing it up.

Does not require a lot of arm movement - can be done with just hands, with upper arms and elbows at rest.

All necessary items can fit in a fairly small pouch, like a pencil case or toiletry bag, to remain self contained and take up minimal space.

Setup and takedown takes a couple minutes max.

Learning curve is cognitively gentle, ie no complex knitting math type thing.

Please feel free to reblog and appreciate any suggestions. It's difficult finding fulfilling activities compatible with my disabilities!

[kelpforestdwellers]

Ahhh I didn't expect so many responses! 😭 Thank you all so much! I can't wait to start looking into them in more detail.

For now I'll just clarify - lying flat on back or side. If I could lie on my stomach that would open up a lot of options because it would be much easier to look down at something I'm doing in front of me with my hands.

And I'd be able to lay the activity down on a surface and use both my hands to engage with it. As it stands, I need to be able to both hold up the activity where I can see it (if it's vision dependent) and do the activity at the same time.

[kelpforestdwellers]

Bonus points if it involves music or sound! Maybe I should learn to play the ocarina.

[kelpforestdwellers]

I can't convey how touched and grateful I am that so many people offered so many applicable ideas. I feel like my life could open up in ways that I didn't think were possible.

I've picked just one to start with. I want to try everything! But I am now too old and sensible to indulge that impulse. I'll start with one, and if that becomes habit or doesn't work out I'll try something else.

Not gonna say which one yet, because I think there's some truth in the concept that talking about something you're gonna do in advance can sap the motivation to actually do it, by prematurely triggering the internal reward signals.

I would also take it as a personal kindness if you would consider reblogging this. You all have created a treasure trove in the comments that can be life changing for people in situations like mine, and I would love for them to get the chance to see it. I have very specific requirements but I'm sure many of these ideas would be helpful for people in a variety of circumstances.

My analysis of Emmrich is that when the team goes out drinking he mostly sits watching them gossip while he drinks fancy wine and the others think he'll just sort of sit and quitely relax until, several glasses in, he opens with "May I say something unkind?" and then proceeds to drop tea so scalding it could boil an ocean

There are only around 1,500 native Cherokee speakers left, and most of them are elders

Little Cherokee Seeds is a program where mothers and babies spend all day with first language Cherokee speakers, speaking nothing but Cherokee, so that the babies become a new generation of native speakers. They're also teaching traditional skills and mothering practices to the mothers to pass on.

This is so so important for the survival of the language. These babies are on track to being fluent first language speakers, and they will be able to keep the language going for another lifetime.

I recommend checking out the little cherokee seeds facebook page!!

Little Cherokee Seeds is fundraising for a new program for the children ages 3 - 6 to continue their journeys as first language Cherokee speakers!
