hi. in a desperate attempt to find a shred of happiness in a world that is collapsing around me, i made a stan twitter-esque sportacus fancam to “no one’s lazy in lazytown”. i giggled an embarrassing amount in the hour it took to make it and every time i watch it makes me smile even though its dumb anyway here it is enjoy

[t1dsportacus]

i see all of your aus like “robbie and sportacus are stephanie’s dads” but stephanie already has a good father figure who i love (mayor meanswell) so i raise you this is instead: au where robbie and sportacus are ZIGGY’S dadas

hi everyone im pulling my first college cramming-for-a-test all nighter cuz my exec dysfunction didnt let me start until 9pm so im gonna be up for a while but the way i work best is studying for 25min and then taking a 10min break and repeating that until im done and i decided in those 10min breaks in gonna make pride icons so be ready for those :^)

[t1dsportacus]

i updated my pinned post and added a DNI.... no one following me did anything wrong but ive been nervous abt my gender identity recently because i had a (now ex-)friend say some really terrible stuff to me cuz she doesn’t approve of my gender identity or whatever but i want this blog to be a safe space for me and other ppl like me! so!

your local trans lazytown fan says: you dont need dysphoria to be trans and you dont have to confirm to “convenientional” gender identities if you dont want to! do whatever makes you happy and comfortable! as long as you’re not hurting anybody (and you’re probably not), you’re fine :)

sorry to ramble again but im thinking about the lazytown fics i wanna write for my lazytown series cuz there’s always stuff i wanna talk abt / educate on but i usually dont have a reason or the platform to talk about things but literally this series is PERFECT cuz i usually wanna talk about physical and mental health a lot anyway but i need to keep track of what i want to write so im making a list here 💜

how “being healthy” means something differnt for everyone

neurodivergence and “laziness”

your success / what you do ≠ your worth (especially in regards to disability/chronic illness)

how diabetes is, in fact, a disability and how you can help your diabetic friends (and what a bad diabetes day looks like ✌🏻 )

mental health is just as important as physical health / how to take care of mental health

i have a lot more in mind but im having trouble articulating all my thoughs rn! im also considering writting a drabble on CGMs since @/theblxelf gave me a change to flesh out my headcanons regarding that thank u ily /p

[t1dsportacus]

in case you were wondering im disabled, neurodivergent, and a psychology major so i have A Lot of Thoughts regarding those things LMAO

all of a sudden im feeling the need to talk abt my sorcerer robbie headcanons 💜 a lot of ppl headcanon robbie as a fae but im a big d&d person and i feel like him being a sorcerer is LITERALLY perfect so im gonna talk abt it hehe

sorcerers are born with their magic, meaning robbie wouldn’t have to learn it or anything, he’s just always had it.

sorcerers all have a high charisma, which means theyre good at deception, persuasion, preformance, etc

sorcerer spells consist of a lot of illusion magic, magic you can use to disguise yourself, and magic you can use to help trick or pursuade others. i feel like robbie’s disguises probably would have a spell or two like those cast on them, which is why no one can tell its him right away when he’s disguised

also a handful of things that robbie DOES in the show are things that sorcerers can do. for example, rotenella was a doll that he brought to life. sorcerers can bring inanimate objects to life using the animate object spell. like... ok i don’t remember when this happened but im 80% sure there was an episode where robbie had like, a cloud of mist disguise? that’s LITERALLY a sorcerer spell dhahdhahdhagf a spell where u can turn anything into, and i quote, “a misty cloud”

this last one just makes me laugh — robbie would be a wild magic sorcerer. wild magic is a really chaotic type of magic, and sometimes when the sorcerer is casting a spell, it can cause something crazy to happen. some good examples: you become invisible and muted so no one can see or hear you. you randomly teleport to a unoccupied place within your line of vision. a unicorn appears five feet away from you. your size increases. you have to shout when you speak. all of these last for a minute and there are so many more great ones but the list would go on for too long fhshdhahfhagf

tl;dr: robbie rotten is a wild magic sorcerer cuz its funny and also makes sense

someone left a comment on my diabetic sportacus fic like “it’s interesting that you think he would have it. i like the think that he doesn’t have it.” hello..........

[t1dsportacus]

my best friend 💚 and i are gonna learn the bing bang dance together and im VERY EXCITED

[t1dsportacus]

//YES! Like that!! I think the airship could use blood sampling for other things too! like "you're a little low on magnesium today, why not have a .... for lunch." Idk if a GCM can do that but maybe Sport's tech can?? Idk jklahklsdf

YEAH that makes a lot of sense too! all of that stuff, like magnesium and iron levels and vitamin levels go hand-in-hand with diabetes — like magnesium helps keep your blood sugar under control, iron + vitamin c helps your insulin pump or CGM work more accurately, etc — and CGMs typically dont keep track of those sort of things but they SHOULD, so definitely! honestly with all the special technology he has, it probably wouldn’t be too hard for him to modify his diabetes technology to keep tabs on that sort of thing, too :)

[t1dsportacus]

//when i think about sportacus keeping track of blood glucose levels i like to think his bracer (sportlet) device has a CGM type set up so the bracer reads it and analyzes the data for him and then the airship voice makes suggestions and such

yeah yeah!!! the way CGMs work is that there’s a little thing that takes samples of your blood and then a transmitter that sends that info to whatever technology you have, like an insulin pump, or a phone, or something like that so it 100% would be able to send the info to his bracer / airship! and the GCM i use is able to analyze my blood suagr data too it looks like this :)

(my blood sugars have not been good but it’s because of a mix of health issues :”D)

so i think that he would be able to be very on top of this sort of thing with the help of CGM technology and his special super hero technology :)

fhahdhad sorry for rambling i just love talking about this idk why LOL

[t1dsportacus]

its projecting on sport and stephanie with overly specific diabetes headcanons time

i feel like he also wouldn’t like glucose checks / putting a CGM in cuz it just kinda sucks ok. and for me trying to put a CGM in is like ziggy eating a carrot like i try to count down and then i Cant Do It so im just picturing sport like

“ok new CGM time, i can do this! i can do it!” for like 20mins before he ACTUALLY does it cuz it just SUCKS, ok!!

and then stephanie starts having to do the finger prick glucose checks and she’s like “i hate them >:(“ and sport is like “YEAH ME TOO” and she’s like “REALLY!!!!” and he’s like “YES! still gotta do them though” and she’s like “yeah 😔”

[t1dsportacus]

also after sportarobbie happens and robbie sits in on the “new CGM” sessions with sport he’s like

robbie: it cant be THAT hard, can it? you’ve been doing it your whole life, haven’t you?

sport: the technology’s rather new, actually, so not really. do you WANT to know how hard is? because i have a glucometer right here so you can try the figer prick yourself...

robbie: NO

sport: then shut up! :{D
