Y’all are just reblogging this at the speed of sound tonight
Since it’s almost valentines day, and this message is about to get hammered in even more, reblogging this again.
Hiya everyone! Just wanted y'all to know I changed my @ because I felt like my old one didn't really fit my blog anymore. I was key-lyme-pie.
Nothing will really change here, I've just expanded my blog from exclusively chronic is stuff to include LGBT, music, politics, and of course cats! I wanna try and post more this year, and hopefully this change will help motivate myself.
Love all my beautiful boys, girls, in between, it otherwise out there ❤️

The science world is freaking out over this 25-year-old's answer to antibiotic resistance
A 25-year-old student has just come up with a way to fight drug-resistant superbugs without antibiotics.
The new approach has so far only been tested in the lab and on mice, but it could offer a potential solution to antibiotic resistance, which is now getting so bad that the United Nations recently declared it a “fundamental threat” to global health.
Antibiotic-resistant bacteria already kill around 700,000 people each year, but a recent study suggests that number could rise to around 10 million by 2050.
In addition to common hospital superbug, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), scientists are now also concerned that gonorrhoea is about tobecome resistant to all remaining drugs.
But Shu Lam, a 25-year-old PhD student at the University of Melbourne in Australia, has developed a star-shaped polymer that can kill six different superbug strains without antibiotics, simply by ripping apart their cell walls.
“We’ve discovered that [the polymers] actually target the bacteria and kill it in multiple ways,” Lam told Nicola Smith from The Telegraph. “One method is by physically disrupting or breaking apart the cell wall of the bacteria. This creates a lot of stress on the bacteria and causes it to start killing itself.”
The research has been published in Nature Microbiology, and according to Smith, it’s already being hailed by scientists in the field as “a breakthrough that could change the face of modern medicine”.
Before we get too carried away, it’s still very early days. So far, Lam has only tested her star-shaped polymers on six strains of drug-resistant bacteria in the lab, and on one superbug in live mice.
But in all experiments, they’ve been able to kill their targeted bacteria - and generation after generation don’t seem to develop resistance to the polymers.

Yes. All the yes. Women in STEM deserve ALLLLLLLL the applause. All of it. And cake. All the cake, too.

I love this solution because it’s just… So simple. Everyone is getting deeper and deeper into pharmacology trying to find new stuff and new combos that’ll overcome bacterial resistance (while Big Pharma rakes in the profits) and this student was like “what if.. We just.. Physically rip it the fuck apart?? What’s it gonna do? Develop resistance to me cutting a bitch?”

Here's my 1 week selfie from yesterday, right after I got my first haircut in over 3 years
Hormones update: Week 1
Took my 8th dose of HRT today, so it's officially been over a week. I haven't noticed much, but I'll go over what little changes I've seen.
1: I'm thirsty more often, and in turn pee more often. Its manageable, but a bit of an inconvenience. And I really didn't expect to see any change with that yet since I'm on a really low dose of Spiro (25mg)
2: Gonna get a bit tmi here, but I got really constipated for like, 5 days. I've read that's common, but it's not fun. While I'm no longer constipated, I still feel very bloated and icky.
3: Last major thing I've noticed is my nipples have been really itchy and sensitive. I think it's too early to see anything with breast growth, so it might just be in my head, but I don't think it is lol
I feel like a lot of people do not know how much wheelchairs cost so
one that is actually designed to be used independently, rigid frame, without any fancy electronics, is a lot of money.
how much do you think the wheelchair shown below is worth?
this is $1,600. this costs one thousand six hundred dollars with no customization, on SALE. this is a SALE price. this is one of the cheapest rigid wheelchairs I could find from a reputable seller. different models cost thousands more and even basic customization can tack on a ton of money.
Bitch, it's better to get a dollie and a stick at that point then.
yeah...that is basically what people do. or they are forced to use pieces of crap folding wheelchairs that hurt the user because they are intended primarily for being pushed. if you have someone with you 24/7 who can push you everywhere? a wheelchair costs a couple hundred for one that might cause a little less bruising than a hospital model. want to be independent at all? you need thousands of dollars for a proper fit or be willing to constantly injure yourself.
I literally JUST purchased a properly fit wheelchair that was designed to be active, independent, and fit my needs. Nothing fancy, I think I got a tire upgrade so I can go on gravel and flip down handles so I can keep people from kidnapping "helping" me when I don't want them to, but also got a less expensive cushion and backrest than standard and a $1000 discount off MSRP for paying in cash.
Turns out the price of freedom for me is exactly $2354.
My uncle bought a wheelchair after his accident, that is meant for rough terrain, it's built like a tank, the thing has treads, it can lift him upright so he can continue to pick from his orchard.
It cost more than a brand new car. Almost 60k for a wheelchair he can use to sustain his farm. JUST to sustain his farm.
Its ridiculous. Disabled people deserve affordable accommodations and mobility devices. They aren't all fucking rich
Read the notes. This is a major issue for TONS of disabled ppl
HI I'm SO FUCKING HAPPY FOR YOU! :D Congratulations!
Thank you!!! ❤️
Started HRT today!!!!!
You're beautiful 🥰
Gosh >/////<
Hi sweetie! I hope you've been well 💙💙
Thank you! I've been better tbh but I'm still kicking
