Very Random Bible-Related Thought
In the bible, when Moses brings down the commandments, God tells them that they “may worship no other gods before me”. God legit admitted to the existence of other gods in that one sentence.

My friend was messing with Never Gonna Give You Up on her record player and she sped it up. It beCAME A FREAKING MAGICAL GIRL THEME.
Reminds me of a late 80s or early 90s anime ending theme.
I'M DYING *wheezing laughter*
A Bit of Herbal Midwifery
Just in case anyone needs to know this, you can induce a miscarriage with basil tea. One handful fresh basil in your teapot, pour over just boiled water that has ceased bubbling, and allow to steep 15-20 minutes. Drink slowly over the course of your day. Drink for three days, then skip two days. If nothing occurs, drink for three days, skip two. Use as necessary and with caution. Basil essential oil can also help, 10 drops to 1/8 cup carrier oil such as olive or sunflower. Apply where your skin is thin, like wrists, back of knee, etc.
Stay safe.
I hope y’all out there in MN are doing better than me with this weather pressure change cause I am Suffering.
I lost the entire day yesterday to a migraine and now I’m dealing with the postdrome from that. It feels like the world’s worst hangover but without enjoying the night before.
And this is how I learned why I always feel so awful after a migraine
Why didn’t anyone tell me about migraine hangovers
I just thought I was lazy or whatever
Yep, the postdrome struggle is real.
Some folk find the postdrome from migraines to be worse than the actual migraines cause while the migraine is severe while it lasts, the ensuing “hangover” can last for several days and be just as incapacitating. It takes me about 3-4 days to recover from an episode.
@thebibliosphere …does it manifest as like: extreme exhaustion weird relationship with food (either starving or nope not eating) excessive thirst and flu-like bodyaches w/ a side of low-key headache that *isn’t* a migraine but just grinds you down?? And inability to stay the fuck awake, and sinus pressure that does whatever the fuck it wants??
Everyone experiences it differently but exhaustion, nausea and a lower grade headache are typical symptoms of postdrome. I also get the flu feeling which is what I’m dealing with rn. Staying awake for me is near impossible following an episode too, so I wind up taking a lot of unintentional naps.
So I’ve had migraines for ten years- I’ve been to multiple neurologists from age 13 to now and I am PISSED. Not only did I have to find out that auras were a thing and what they were online- even after I discribed the classic aura symptoms to a neurologist who supposedly specialized in migraines- I was today years old when I learned the word postdrome and that it was a normal thing that goes with migraines.
Sorry I don’t mean to be super angry on this post but man what have I been paying doctors for if they can’t give me even the basic information about a medical condition they a) supposedly specialize in and b) affects millions of people in the US? Like how are they this bad at their job?
It’s a mood tbh. I started getting migraines when I was maybe 10 or 11 (screw you too early puberty) and it took until I was in my late 20′s to find out what migraine postdrome was, and that by ignoring it and trying to power my way through it I was setting myself up for a rebound migraine on the other side and thus prolonging the cycle.
I have aura-only migraines on rare occasion and if I didn’t spend all my time on Wikipedia from age 12 onwards I would probably have assumed I had a brain tumour the first time that happened.
Omg never heard of this and I’ve been seeing a neurologist for years!!
Also, has anyone else in America been given dse or ds3 (idk the name) in the hospital? It’s through an IV but did more harm than good, apparently, it’s not used in Europe??
DHE? (dihydroergotamine).
It’s used as an abortive therapy for migraines and is usually combined with an antiemetic for maximum benefit. I know it’s fallen out of favor with some doctors in recent years cause it’s not as effective as other meds, like toradol (ketorolac tromethamine) and a few others I can’t remember the name of right now.
But yeah, DHE doesn’t work well for some folk. I used to get given a DHE nasal spray when I still lived in the UK, which would sometimes help stop the attack once it had started but other times I’d get worse. It was hit or a miss. Not sure about use in European countries though. I know in France they were absolute fuckers about my migraines and refused to give me anything other than IV saline even though I need like, y’know, actual medication, but tbf I’ve had that experience in other countries too.
I’ve had a permanent blinding migraine with aura for nearly two years, and though trigger control is definitely an issue and sometimes it’s still unmanageable, propranolol has been an absolute godsend. I take it 6x per day at even intervals and it makes it possible for me to like, look at screens and have conversations and stuff.
I am really passionate about this discussion for many reasons, but I can’t emphasize enough: if you go to the ER to get a migraine cocktail, be cautious about allowing them to give you Reglan. It causes psychosis in patients with a history of anxiety, and let me tell you - worst trip ever, and it took months for my legs to stop moving of their own volition. Google it if you want more info - I wish I had known before receiving it.
Oh gosh that’s really good info, thank you. I’ve been given reglan a couple of times (it’s used primarily to treat acid reflux I think) and the side effects were always horrific for me, and I feel like someone should have told me this given I have a history of medication induced psychosis. I had no idea it was in the migraine cocktail though so that would have been an awful way to find out.
Cameo, I had similar migraines from age six and up. Unfortunately, I did have a brain tumor, benign thankfully. No more migraines except when we have wild weather like now though :)
Fun game. Ignore me, I just want the daily share bonus gold
I'm so tired
I'm so tired of all the bullshit going on. The hate, the rape, the misogyny, the killing, the homophobia, the racism... All of it. Can we all just chip in five bucks each and buy some land off one of the bigger countries and make a new one where we can just love in quiet and live in peace? Why does every goddamn thing have to be an uphill battle? Why? Why does my pain, your pain, anyone's pain, require systematic denial and mockery? Why does someone, with no medical degree, get to decide how healthcare works? I'm just so done and so tired and I just want it to end. The world is changing, why can't they just accept it with grace and humility? The world is becoming something more than money and stocks and bonds. More than houses, than cars, than 9-5 jobs. Accept it and move on. The world is not about power. The world exists for love.
#millenials #genz #midnight-thoughts
Epiphany
As I was waking up this morning, I had a moment of absolute clarity. We, as Millennials, are a generation abused: mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. Yet we have failed to do something, something that was within our power to prevent. We failed to save the Gen Z kids from the same fate.
Gen Z has taken their abuse with stride, turned it to humor and nihilism. They’re fighting back on behalf of their brothers and sisters, the siblings of their generation. And all I could think this morning....
If they can motivate the Millennials, and get our generation to move our asses, actual change could happen. Together, the Millennial and Z generations are bigger than the Boomers and the generation prior. We could enact real, lasting change on the face of the country.
I just hope it happens sooner, rather than later.

Oh so pretty! <3
concept: an austen-inspired tabletop rpg where there are five classes
single man in possession of a large fortune who is in want of a wife
young woman with low connections who must marry so that she can secure her future
cad whose main goal is to convince someone to elope with him
wealthy, scheming woman whose goal is to ruin the happiness of the aforementioned young woman
tiresome & vulgar elderly busybody (can be either a man or a woman)
I’m gonna split this out a little farther, because I feel like we’re blurring the lines between classes and stats. First you should pick your Austen class:
Bachelor/Bachelorette
Cad / Floozy
Husband/Wife
Matriarch/Patriarch
Busybody
Then you roll for your stats across the 6 basic Abilities:
Money
Intelligence
Connections
Manners
Looks

Hilariously, irl friends have found out about my blog and keep tagging me on this on Facebook under my “real” account. My FB went from “pretty darn boring” to lots of other people going “what the fuck” real quick XD
Every single year the same things happens in Greece, every damn summer our country is burned, people lose their houses and families, then no one cares and the cycle repeats.
Its not just a weather issue, there is always a greater evil hidden behind all of this and nothing changes.
Last year my house almost burned, we were lucky on the last minute but I can still remember the fear of the people around me, running around and trying to help, the panicked animals and the sickening anxiety that I might lose my house and my cat.
Funny how when people think about Greece all they talk about is our economic crisis and shitty politicians (and even dare to act like they know everything about those matters), yet for some strange reason, when it comes to the refugee crisis, the tensions with Turkey or the fire catastrophes, silence ensues.
I’m positive that if it were a stronger country or a “popular” one getting burned, everyone would magically transform into Mother Teresa and pray, cry and reblog everything they can.
But no, this is Greece, the “joke of Europe”, or, as all fandoms here know it, “that one ancient country with the really cool mythology and gods”. No future or innocent people to worry about, right?
This is so true. I did a test yesterday: I reblogged posts about the Fire in both my blogs (one of them being a Greece travel blog, fancy that), overall potential of 6000 followers. The number of reblogs I got was disheartening. And the vast majority was from Greek followers.
Had I reblogged something pale in comparison about USA, or at least UK or at the very least France, people would be all over it.
Had I reblogged an idiotic headcanon about Apollo or Athena or an 100% accurate analysis of Achilles and Patroclus’s relationship, people would reblog like crazy “oh wow how cool that is” .
I had photos of Santorini island and Ancient temples in my queue and they were posted, obviously getting more attention than the people and houses being on fire, right NOW. Because bucket list goals, duh.
Speculations about if it’s Alexander’s tomb found in Egypt these days got like 300000 notes.
No one gives a shit about Greeks nowadays. No one gives a shit about small or weak countries. No one gives a shit about something that doesn’t affect them personally. I saw a Portuguese person reblogging the post because they said last year when Portugal was on fire, nobody cared and they didn’t want the same thing to happen to Greece. I feel terribly sorry and I salute that person.
And one more thing: those of you who claim you love Greece, Greek mythology, you are Philhellenes, you can explain in detail how Leonidas’ sacrifice affected the invasion of the Persians in the European continent or you even eat Gyros and dance Syrtaki, here’s a secret, you don’t know shit about Greece. Literally nothing.
Many of you might wonder “okay what is this sudden outburst, where did all this come from”. But I don’t care if it seems out of place. I know where it comes from and fellow Greeks know where it comes from. And that’s enough for me right now.
And you might wonder: “Ok are we obliged to love Greece?”. Of course not. You don’t have to love Greece. So don’t claim you do either because you do not really know shit about her. (it’s a she.)
In case anyone cares, there are more than 74 people dead, over 150 severely or critically injured and more than 600 houses burnt to the ground.
I mean this as a honestly legit question from a non-greek European to you, the people affected by it:
What do you think are the best ways to help?
Other than simply caring (although what I get from your posts is that this too is a rare thing and I’m sorry to hear that). Because, caring about something is important and good, but for me what matters most are the actions caring leads to.
So, what actions can I take that would help you and the wildfire situation?
reblogging for the second reply. here’s what can you do:

@thebibliosphere here’s a really informational post I found earlier without any pictures. It’s a bit lengthy, but the resources in it are wonderful.
Vampire fiction misled me about mensturation
Last week I had a period so heavy that I’m most likely anemic now. I went to my Dr yesterday to find out and had to have him explain to me, a 32 year old female, how a period could even do that.
I thought all the blood you would lose was already in your uterus and didn’t draw from the rest of your body. You know why I thought That?
Because American sex ed is laughable.
Because I had read that in MULTIPLE VAMPIRE NOVELS/SHORT STORIES
After my Dr explains it to me, my poor oxygen deprived and exhausted brain whispers:
“Vampire porn has lied to me”
My poor dr, eyes me for an uncomfortably long amount of time and walks out with out a word.
@thebibliosphere
As someone who used to have severe anemia from my periods, oh gosh I hope you’re feeling okay now <3, also I’m sorry for laughing :P

It’s been a long while since I was on tumblr... I’ve moved twice more and am currently recuperating from a broken leg. I think the worst of it is that, during said recuperation, I seem to have lost a lot of my zest for life and the things I love. It’s sort of difficult to explain the feeling, like where once there was a cup overflowing with bright, glowing liquid there is nothing. As though someone or something stole the cup that is my soul and vitality.
How does one find one’s soul again? How do you recover the luminescence of spiritual health and emotional balance? Can it be done? Or will I forever wander life looking for the cup that was stolen?
One thing that Republicans need to understand is that the "golden age" they dream of is not the one the current generation wants. We just want dental coverage, decent healthcare, and the ability to feed ourselves. Because it is not that we are obsessed with food, but rather we'd prefer not to starve.
