"the most unrealistic thing about project hail mary is that a woman is in charge" WRONG look up the glass cliff. women are much more likely to be promoted to positions of power when things are going poorly and people need a woman to blame. she refers to herself as the "world's whipping boy." the person put in the position to have to commit ecological and humanitarian crimes of that scale in order to save the earth would only ever be a woman.
Pre-menstrual depression is always depicted as like "He He! I had a box of icecream bars and cried while watching the Titanic!" But in reality, it's more like, "I'm standing the edge of an abyss. There is nothing good inside of me, I'm filled with rage and desperation."
It's crazy that being told how to deal with that is never a part of anyone's menstrual sex education.
This has already been said in the notes, but if PMS causes extreme depression and even suicidal ideation, that is in fact something that most people do not experience and it can be treated
Like for the majority it really is "oh i'm hungrier and moodier than usual"
^this should be a part of sex education so the point still stands
I went to my doctor after I was walking to work one morning and saw a bus coming and actually took a step to throw myself in front of it before I pulled myself together. Later that day I started bleeding and was literally like someone flipped a switch and I didn't feel suicidal anymore. Which made me feel like I was loosing my mind because who goes from 'I want to throw myself in front of a bus' to 'I'm perfectly fine' just like that? I did some research, I went to the doctor and described my feelings, he looked me in the eye and gently asked what I thought it was, I said I'd read about PMDD and I thought it might be that, he said 'I think so too' and wrote a prescription.
If, before you get your period, you feel furiously angry, suicidal, irritated by every tiny thing to the point you want to murder someone, stuck in a black hole you'll never escape from. If you are experiencing extreme emotions for what seems like no good reason, especially if you get your period and those extreme emotions just go away. You're probably not just PMSing , you may have PMS's feral big sister PMDD and it's treatable.
Also this is something that can develop as you get older. So if you used to get normal PMS but what I wrote above sounds more like your norm now then don't just write it off as regular PMS.
ALSO! If you start having those feelings and suspect you’re heading towards perimenopause, talk to your doctor.
Basically, if you have a uterus and you start having extreme mood swings every month, that’s not actually normal, go talk to a medical professional. Don’t grit your teeth and suffer through it.
realizing many people don't know about infinity train creator owen dennis' among us show from years ago, which has been trapped in unreleased limbo all this time and was just dumped on streaming this morning with no advertisement. they don't even know about its weirdly stacked cast

Ihihi now that I'm caught up with the series I get all giddy when there's a new episode.
Anyway: Arthur you really should tell John about Parker.
This place is so cool, it feels so period appropriate. I really feel like I'm in the 30s.
"These are villains" man Arthur you really like getting on your high horse, huh.
Ooo a new old friend.
Ohohohoh he's getting under Arthur's skiiiin whatcha gonna do now Lester
"I don't do anything half cocked" lmao
Oml it wasn't a baseball, it was a hand grenade.
He needs the dead man's mouthpiece, that's interesting.
You gave it an honest try Arthur. Wonder if we'll meet Molly at some point.
He's being very secretive about what he wants Arthur to do. Aha he's one of the four people Puckett was talking about. Ah the four of them controlled different parts of Arkham. Hm he's worried that he's next, really wonder what those guys got into. Hello Puckett! Here's hoping bossman wasn't looking for the key Arthur stole lmao. Welp good thing they let Arthur be alone in the cold room.
Ohhh a figure in white robes👀 Definitely not human. Ohhhh the thing whose name escapes me. It has a symbol hanging from a chain in it's hand...
Whoa Puckett's chest caved in and the thing left.
Off to find the masked man from the greenhouse and the note Puckett wrote before he died. Oop nvm going to the bar with Jack first.
Yeah the thing dressed in white was weird, wasn't it👀
Aw good talk about duty and doing what's right.
Ohoho wonder who the piano player iiiis (Faroe's age huh)
Jack seems nice. Another friendly man who likes Arthur lol.
Hm Johnny (Puckett's second in command) told Jack Puckett was acting strange and seeing a head shrinker about it.
I hope Arthur hangs out with Jack more c:
Ah right Puckett recognized the thing that killed him👀
Aw puppy wonder why John doesn't like it WAH Parker! Wonder if "Parker" is the white clothed thing in disguise. The flies fit with the sickness. Dunno why it would need the disguise tho. "How does it feel working for the mob" my dude it's your fault he is and he's protecting your family but whatever.
Everyone's talking about Artemis II, the first humans to travel to the moon in 50 years
Historic, right? BUT nobody's talking about the Deaf people who made it possible.
In the late 1950's, NASA had a problem.
They needed to understand what weightlessness did to the human body but every test subject kept getting violently motion sick
NASA needed to figure out FAST during the space race!
So, they went to Gallaudet University. They recruited 11 Deaf people.
Because a number of Deaf people had lost their hearing to spinal meningitis as children which also damaged their vestibular system.
Their inner ears couldn't be overwhelmed. They were immune to motion sickness.
NASA put them in centrifuges. Put them on zero gravity flights. A room for 12 straight days.
(All caps) It rotated the entire time.
One experiment on a ferry in choppy Nova Scotia waters, the researchers got so seasick they had to cancel it. The Gallaudet Eleven? They were playing cards.
Their bodies gave NASA the data and research it needed to send humans into space.
No Gallaudet Eleven? No Mercury. No Apollo. No Artemis II.
They stood on the shoulders of 11 Deaf people most people have never heard of.
Did some fun material tutorials to get that metallic, iridecent and crystal look! I'm using these as an excuse to learn davinci as well to do more fun video stuff later! Also followed a 2 minutes long tutorial and spent 45 minutes making a plant so it gets added here as well😂
the eridians have this beautiful, transcendant concept called the thrum where they come together to form a hive mind in order to discuss scholarly pursuits and solve their peoples greatest issues which resulted in them building a space ship to save their planet
