Ya know what? It's absolutely fucked that everything about my disability gets worse once a month, added to the shit that is a period anyway. How fucking dare my body?

VERY IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT!! We have a backer who gave to the $3000.00 tier. And while that is exciting and great for us, this is really important what she wants to do with her reward. She wishes to remain annoymous but this is what she wanted to say. "One in ten Americans has a disability. And yet one of the hardest things to deal with, being disabled or ill, is isolation. The people in your day to day life suddenly don't understand, or maybe you can’t leave the house, to reach those that would. So you turn to the internet, and social media, where you can talk to people dealing with similar issues, and find a place for yourself.

Even in support groups, sometimes, it can be hard, because the only thing you have in common, the only thing you talk about, is illness.

I had an idea. I wanted to create a haven, a place where everyone could go, sick or not, able or not, and exist together. A place where people can gravitate together, and share similar interests, with no pressure. With no judgement, not a place just for us, but a place that we could be, and relax, together, and also with others. I saw Pumpkin Onlines Kickstarter, and I wanted to play the game immediately. The more I thought about it, the more I realized – maybe we could join forces, and bring my dream into Pumpkin Online, a perfect platform for us all to play and be together.

Thanks!"

--- Wait but that's not all she also said this. "You have no idea how much this means to us. Personally I have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia. I am on the severe end of things and I am on bedrest 23 hours a day. It is hard for me to sit up for any length of time most days. So all of my social interaction is done on line. Most of the people I know aren't in such an extreme place, but many are not far behind." Her village seed reward allows the backer to create their own village, with 4 NPC families with shops. As well as be a producer with an active role in the game development. 

Her idea is to create an island in the game inspired by the Spoon Theory

The spoon theory was created by Christine Miserandino which explains to able-bodied people what it's like to live with a chronic sickness of disability. You have to read the article in the link to understand.

-- SO GUYS if you read all that. We need to make this happen. Like we need to make this backer's idea come alive because her tier makes her apart of our team now. If we can make our goal she can create this place in our game. The team is already discussing ideas and concepts for this place in our game map that will created by her. And will also bring awareness in our game for chronic illness.  So ONCE AGAIN. We have 2 weeks left in our Kickstarter. If you want this happen any kind of amount would help push us further. We're so close. We can do this. The teams is ready and willing to start working and go forward.  Pumpkin-Online is a Harvest-Moon / Animal Crossing inspired mmo currently in development by indie game company, Pumpkin Interactive, we need a lot of support to make this happen so please follow, and spread the word about us PLEASE SUPPORT OUR KICKSTARTER! IT ENDS SEPTEMBER 18th.

College..

so in the early days of college i found out i have a mild form of Dispraxia, which is a form of autisum meaning i cant concerntrate very well, i get distracted i find it hard to put my thoughts onto paper ect, i have never ever kown my lefts and rights and i can very clumsy when it comes to thinking people are watching me, it wasnt bad enough to be put onto a dignostics as id lived with it for teh whole 18 years of my life so there really was no point and its the mildest fourm of it, this does not make me dumb, stupid or discoordinate, this means that i struggle slightly. My dad has a very disablities that arent as common, Dislexia, but his is with small words not big, Nystigmas, eye problems he is Partially blind, and he only has hearing in one year, My brother is Dislexic, ADHD, unidentified autisum (belived to be asperegess) he is 18 and has the writing ablity of a 5 year old, he cant concerntrate and is very easily lead. So the english school board thinks that all these things are a myth, i wouldnt have passed english without the way i handeled creative wrirting my brother would have pretty much no right in england if they said this and my dad? hee didnt find out until he was 42 Years old. Some myth, so i really think david cameron aught to learn to live with people who do have disablities may they be as mild as something like me where im a ltitle clumsy and sturggle with some things or like my brother where he cant comprehend pain and getting himself in trouble but also my dad, my farther raised 4 kids on his own up until i was 14 when i met my stepmum, he did everything for us and my austitic brother and still did not know he had disablities until i was 18 years of age, so david cameron can stick his myth belifes where the sun doesnt shine quite fankly.
