it's wild that popular discourse around migraines is that there are too many people who claim to have migraines but "just have bad headaches". this is the exact opposite of my experience? i'm still trying to convince several of my friends that their "bad tension headaches" that are unilateral, throbbing, cause light sensitivity, nausea, etc, are migraines lmao. migraine is underdiagnosed and undertreated by every metric i can think of.

this narrative is not harmless! it prevents people from getting treatment that could really benefit them. so i would like it to die. thank you.

[shamebats]

As a guy who went to see a neurologist only to "rule out migraines" because I thought I had "tension headaches at worst and also it's not that bad really" only to realize by tracking my headache days that I have very bad chronic migraines just with no aura (most people with migraines don't have them), I co-sign this 100%.

Just starting abortive medications already improved my quality of life so much and now that my doctor started me on preventatives, I might actually be able to have more than a handful of headache-free days each month.

Migraine is frequently misdiagnosed as chronic sinusitis or tension headaches according to research. Mostly because people have a very rigid (inaccurate) idea of what it actually is.

But even if it's not migraine, you still deserve treatment for your headaches. Just because someone else has them worse than you doesn't mean you don't deserve relief.

Learning about the different types of migraine and headache disorders can help you better understand your symptoms and discuss them with you

yeah i found out awhile back that the 'pressure headaches' that i get that 'aren't that bad' (but still leave me feeling sick and dysfunctional all day) were migraines. i now take a low dose of a preventative medication and the number of shitty rain days i have per month has dropped from like ten to two. it's great.

In my experience anyone who has chronic pain of any kind ALWAYS under diagnoses it in part cause people who DON'T have chronic pain always tell them how it's Not That Bad Just Get Over It and it takes a lot of fighting to get anyone (including doctors) to do anything about it. Fucked if I know why. Everyone seems to think we're making it up. I've never met anyone who is making it up.

So they're like mashed potato taquito wraps?

🤔🤔

Visually, it looks great, but he made all that stuff with the cabbage, put it on top of the wraps, and then didn't eat it with the cabbage. Wouldn't make more sense to put that in with the mashed potatoes?

Also I need to do something with my potatoes. They're at the scary point of their time in the bag. :/

the ultimate JO crystal

if you JO in this cavern you start a resonance cascade

[rednines]

Isn’t the location of this cave kept secret? Like it’s in Mexico but you’re not supposed to say where it is except to other geologists?

[flagellant]

Nope! Youre thinking of Naica cave in Chihuahua, whose location is public but is so hostile to life that the public can’t meaningfully visit.

The original photo from @eyexunt is from la geoda de pulpi, a public spanish cave which hosts one of the world’s largest (known) JO geodes!

[tartrazeen]

Please tell me you people mean something other than Jack Off

I cannot read this post in any way other than celebrating the ultimate jack-off crystals in this spanish jack-off cave

[cryptotheism]

JO is fully intended to be read as Jerk Off. You do not comprehend the inherent eroticism of God’s work. You fear the divine pleasure of cranking that nasty thing in the caverns.

[wegottagoback2]

an interesting aside to this discussion is that the phenomenon that @rednines mentions is not uncommon at all– cave locations are more often than not kept secret. it is not uncommon at all! i’ve been in several caves whose locations are “secret”. members of the caving community will never publicly post the coordinates of wild caves lest they get damaged by careless visitors.

in fact there are a few caves in the US which are known as “sacrifice caves,” whose locations the authorities & caving community make no effort to hide, so that the other caves in the area stay hidden. petty john’s cave is an example of this.

and there are vastly more wild and undeveloped caves, on private property, park/conservancy land, and/or unincorporated land, than there are tourist or show caves! for every cave you can buy tickets to go visit there are literally hundreds of others, and many are still unexplored!

*please do not jack off in wild or commercial caverns

[tartrazeen]

>:( well which caves can i use then?

“Do it scared” “do it alone” are all great tips, but my biggest takeaway from therapy is do it messy. This is especially true if you’re getting out of a burnout, which I experience often. Literally just do it messy. You don’t need to pick the perfect trail to walk, the perfect playlist to listen to, whatever the fuck it is. You don’t need to have a meticulous to do list and wake up at the exact time you planned and drink the exact amount of water you planned to drink. Like the biggest thing for people like me to remember is sometimes it’s okay to do it messy. Put on a random yt workout and just get it done in sweats. Do 5 minutes of a daunting task and go from there. Sometimes just getting up is a win during intense burnouts or depressive funks. Literally just do it messy.

I've realized recently that every time I'm asked for socials my response is sorta "oh i don't have twitter" "I'm not on Instagram much" "i uninstalled TikTok a few months ago" and this has led people into believing I'm just someone who doesn't do social media but in reality you can find me in here lets get it on cunts monday through shawty like a melody sunday, 9am to 12am, posting blorbo.

EXCUSE ME THERE IS A PLANT THAT CAN MIMIC FAKE PLANTS?????

IT'S CALLED A BOQUILA TRIOFOLIOLATA AND IT'S FUCKING WITH MY BRAIN

IT APPARENTLY CAN MIMIC OTHER PLANTS AND AT FIRST I WAS LIKE "oh cool man it must take it's genetic code and copy it or feel the roots or something like that!! :3"

AND THEN I READ AN ARTICLE ON IT AND THESE FUCKING PARAGRAPHS HIT ME LIKE A BUS

LIKE READ THIS SHIT

WHAT THE FUCK MOTHER NATURE

[rhyperographer]

I went to find the article. It's fascinating.

[digital-magus]

In retrospect, consider the number 1 thing every grade-schooler knows about plants is they take in light, the idea they might be able to see should not wreck my shit as hard as it does

SZA receiving an autism diagnosis is going to be healing to so many undiagnosed girls, but especially for a group of girls who are even MORE unlikely to be diagnosed—black girls! I am so beyond proud of SZA for getting evaluated and sharing this update with us because its going to change so many lives. I barely know any celebrities who have been open about having an autism diagnosis. I havent seen anyone on tumblr post about SZA’s post which could be a problem with my curation of who i follow but i wanted to share this awesome news with my followers!
