ALRIGHT COOL THATS OUT OF THE WAY. letters of recommendation from friends + oc ramblings under the cut
THE DRAWING BOARD JUMPSCARE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this is my main ocverse :3 theres these four guys in a band. they have been chosen by the goddess oda to save the universe. they travel across the universe to defeat the cacophonous six [the supposed bad guys] and have many, many, MANY missteps along the way. like oh my lord their journey goes wrong in so so many ways. anyway you should totes ask me about tdb im so normal about tdb
this may seem longer than the other one but half of it is just me being silly. this ocverse is very new. as in like. 4 days old as of writing this. nubara is a fictional city in tennessee where everyone and everything in it is based off at least one song by nuclear bubble wrap :3 i dont really have an overarching story or that many characters rn i just have some bits and bobs. "noonbeam," you may say, "a city named after the first syllables of each word in an artist/band on needlejuice records, with the people living in it based off of at least one song by said artist/band, and most of the people's names being wordplay on the main song they're based off of? that sounds familiar..." AND YOU WOULD BE CORRECT. @autisticzaphodbeeblebrox you did this to me. /silly
[yes this is why aub's letter of recommendation is that he did the despicable me thing to me. it was the one who introduced me to nbw]
anyway youve made it this far. have sharktopus [heads up for cartoon gore]
So I canāt brush my teeth. Like, itās the worst kind of hell. I went to the dentist for a cleaning today and I told the hygienist this, and she was wonderfully helpful.
There are some incredibly soft toothbrushes available- namely, post-surgical brushes. Running them under hot water makes them even softer.
She told me that you donāt really need to use toothpaste- itās mostly marketing. The foam gets to me, so that is really reassuring.
She gave me two particularly soft brushes and some xylitol gum. Trident is a market brand of xylitol gum, which helps with your teeth and can make your breath smell better.
The whole purpose of brushing is to disrupt plaque buildup. You donāt need to brush twice a day, every day with toothpaste if you brush correctly- little circles, focusing on near the gums (where most plaque builds up). So if youāre having a bad sensory day and canāt brush at all, itās not the end of the world.
Hell, you donāt even need a toothbrush if even the post-surgical ones are too harsh. Going over your teeth with the same motions using a washcloth is enough.
She wants to find a fluoride rinse that has a taste I can stand (peppermint is the only mint I can stand) but sheās not particularly worried about it.
I go to Dr. Barr in Chicago. If you can get to the State St. Macyās, his office is nearby. Heās very kind and patient and really understanding of my needs as an autistic person. The hygienist, I donāt know her name, announced everything she was going to do before she did it, and stopped frequently to see how I was doing.
This is really the only positive dentist Iāve ever had- past dentists have been too rough and not bothered to help find ways I can actually brush.
Basically this is a glowing recommendation for Dr. Barrās office if youāre autistic, afraid of dentists, or have sensory needs. This is a recommendation even if you donāt have any of those things.
If you were feeling guilty about your brushing habits, either due to sensory issues, pain, allergies, executive dysfunction, or just plain fatigue, hereās what you need to know about what is and isnāt necessary if your dental care!
Children dying from the cold, mothers screaming in pain and anguish, men praying to their Lord against injustice, the elderly groaning, the sick praying to their Lord to ease their pain and coldāall this in the tents.

the biggest thing that fucks me up about lil nas x is he put out some REALLY fun creative music, with a really cute minimalist pink early 2000s aesthetic, super queer and well made, and it got so little attention. and then the whole bullshit with him getting arrested happened and that was what got everyone talking about it. fuck i'd be livid if i were him.
& on my own people: a lot of white queer people love lil nas x when he's doing cunty clapbacks online but don't actually support him materially in any way. which like. its not that you are Morally Obligated To Stream HOTBOX, its not activism or anything. & idk if i have the best perspective to really analyze white queer people online's relationship to him. but it frustrates me to watch.
#itās not even the full album yet but the ep is SO good #itās fun and queer and joyous!! I mean not always but his music always kind of has that undercurrent #the whole dreamboy thing is just *chefs kiss*
it's not even the full album!!!!! it's a really fun ep, really fun simple videos to go along w the songs, the whole aesthetic i just find super enjoyable, he's clearly put a lot of thought into what he wanted this new era to look + sound like and i love it sm. ik he made a video online a little while ago basically telling his audience "im queer and im gonna act queer, if you liked me before i came out (ie old town road) i was pretending to be straight and I'm not doing that to myself again" and so it's really lovely seeing him be so openly queer in his music, lyrically and physically and artistically and everything.
enough hedging and whining about rap music all queers stream days before dreamboy NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! go my scarabs
lil nas x being arrested making more news than his album makes a lot of sense when you consider that white (yes even white queer) ppl will only engage with stuff made by blk ppl if there's some type of incident attached to it
all that shit wit the kendrick and drake beef was the exact same shit. cupcakke literally made a lyric about it DFKBNDFb

My favorite shoes in the winter are my Manitobah mukluks, which are Metis-owned and participate heavily in community initiatives with other indigenous nations to train and support artists. They also partner regularly with artists from other nations on their shoes to create custom editions. Currently they are collaborating with Rosa Scribe (Cree), Janae Grass (Sac & Fox), Atheana Picha (Salish), and Melissa Peter-Paul (Mi'kmaw). They also host an indigenous market that showcases and promotes indigenous artists.
Plus they're warm as hell and the sheepskin lining means I don't have to wear socks, which is extremely nice sensory comfort. So that's nice as well.
Eighth Generation (Snoqualmie Tribe) has some beautiful stuff - I've bought a huge beautiful beach towel and cool socks from them personally, but they have jewelry, art, housewares, lots of great work.

i think more games should allow you to go out of your way to do something dumb and stupid and then be able to face the obvious consequences of the stupid thing you did. i like how peak lets you cook your gear over a fire to incinerate it and make it worse for no reason
