I'm a law abiding citizen but something about working six times harder than my grandparents for a sixth of what they had is persuasive

[flycasual]

I'm not sure I can actually fully express how much I love libraries. No matter how long I might go without being in one, they are always there when I need them. Nothing is safer to me than rows of books in a community building. I don't remember lots of my childhood, but I remember what it felt like to stand in my school's library and feel like it was so much larger than it actually was. I remember almost every day after high school I wouldn't be picked up for a while, so I would walk to the public library right next door. I'd sit there for hours, on the floor, picking through whatever was nearby. I volunteered there. I used it to read books my family wouldn't allow me to touch. Even now, as an adult, when I feel unsafe I go to the library. I'll spend all day there, reading, drawing, just sitting. No one wants anything from you for being there. You can just sit and be and it's warm and safe and fun.

we NEED themed grocery stores

do you have any idea how incredible it would be to have your groceries rung up by someone wearing a wizard robe?

right now every grocery store is exactly the same. it's boring as sin. the theme is groceries

the curse of adhd:

i will remember with absolute clarity, when the thought strikes me that i have a text to send someone, that this is the fourth time in three days i've attempted to send this specific text

i will forget, in the time it takes me to pick up my phone, that i picked it up intending to send a text

[xenasaur]

this is something that I think a lot of people don't understand abt adhd. and like. this shit can get scary, especially if it happens often. I hate that I can't remember what I'm doing for the entire time it takes me to do it. I hate having to pause in the middle of conversations to desperately attempt to re-trace my train of thought because I don't remember what we're talking about. like. if you don't have adhd. just try to imagine what it's like to be unable to carry out a full conversation. try to imagine your memory resetting at random intervals. what are you doing right now? do you know? because often times, I fucking Forget. in the middle of doing things. and then I'm just standing there like an idiot desperately trying to wave away the thick fog that exists in my brain 24/7. and sometimes that shit just doesn't work. and I forget for good. it's terrifying. to me, at least.

[the-other-other-m]

Adding on: any situation where you're being judged by your ability to pay attention becomes immediately scary because there's no way to know when you missed/forgot something and it's a recipe for disappointment. One gets lambasted as uncaring and "conveniently forgetful" in situations where there's nothing one would like other than to remember. And then that guilt and fear carries over to the next situation with that person, and you still don't know exactly what for.

It's terrifying to me too.

yeah the hardcover edition of iwyw is pretty cool i guess i’m feeling regular feelings about it

REMINDER: the part of a comb jelly that looks like a mouth is in fact a mouth

[bogleech]

Turns out I do need to clarify that these particular comb jellies are actually not filter feeders :)

these are also the true actual first animal group that’s ever thought to have existed; comb jellies or ctenophores are survivors from the *ediacaran,* the point in time where we can’t even guess what kind of animal most of the fossils are. But, maybe all of them were just wacky shaped comb jellies???? we will never know. this one ate them all.

So many TV shows/movies depict the Epi Pen as a total solution for anaphylaxis...it's not. The Epi Pen gives you 30 minutes to get to a hospital where they can save your life. TV makes it look like you just have to use the Epi Pen and then the crisis is over. Do people without allergies or a loved one with allergies know that an Epi Pen only buys you time? The more I see this on TV the more I worry...

**Maybe you should reblog this because I'm actually worried that most people don't know.

[thykingdomcole]

Omg so much this! I have to use my epipens about three times a year and my doctor recommends I shoot both of them in my thigh and then call an ambulance! They are a STABILISER not a cure!!

[just-call-me-vendetta]

EPI and NARCAN are both stabilizers.

After use, you STILL need to go to HOSPITAL!!!

[ashitomarisu]

Being a pharmacy technician, yes, this is very common and yes, the directions by default do tell patients or anyone administering either one to call 911 and seek emergency help.

[fairycosmos]
