And stop comparing how well you handle what’s on your plate with how other people handle what’s on their plates, too.

This is a great metaphor for helping people understand chronic illness or mental illness-related limitations. 

[ID: Back text on white background reads, “Maybe you think someone doesn’t have a lot on their plate compared to you. But maybe their plate is smaller than yours and doesn’t have a lot of room to begin with. Or maybe their plate is paper, and their flimsy paper plate can’t hold as much as your sturdy ceramic plate can. End ID]

im not one of those like “9/11 9/11 americahhhh put a boot in the terrorists ass” kind of people but i think its important to remember all the firefighters and rescue workers on the anniversary, who risked their lives and who now live with debilitating illnesses and cancer. its also important to remember that the government has tried to screw them over multiple times when it comes to their healthcare and pensions, despite the fact that they live (and die) with illnesses related to their dedication to save lives. so like, fuck the government and fuck bush but honor the firefighters

[image ID, 8 images of a titter thread by user Dara Kass, MD (handle [at]darakass):

(continued under cut for length)

1: I spent last night thinking of medical work arounds for this horrific law, until it is rectified in the courts.

So, this is what I would tell my daughter or her friends if they were in Texas.

(I know this isn’t enough, but as a mom, and a doctor, I am sharing my thoughts).

2: Get on birth control.

Now.

Any form that is reliable.

Oral Contraceptives, Nuva Ring, Norplant, IUD.

Something.

Now.

3: Use condoms.

With the birth control.

Every single time.

No exceptions.

(This is good practice for STI protection anyway.)

4: If you find out you are pregnant, and do not want to be, you have very little time to do it.

Do not shut down.

This will be hard, but you can’t delay.

Call me. We’ll figure this out, together.

5: Understand how to seek a medical abortion.

There are ways to safely seek care privately even if you need to leave the state to do it.

Share this information with your friends.

6: Be a resource to ANYONE who needs it.

A lot of people will be afraid.

This is a horrific time,

We are all scared.

And we are sorry we let this happen.

We will continue to fight, but we also need to be prepared starting today.

7: Take a pregnancy test every 4.5-5 weeks.

Buy a bunch now.

Get them in bulk and get comfortable taking them.

This may feel redundant if you are on birth control, but time is of the ESSENCE with this law.

Knowledge is your only power.

8: PS. I am aware this leaves many circumstances leading to abortion care (non-consensual intercourse, fetal abnormality, health of the pregnant person) but given the broad scope of this law, and its applicability to early elective termination, I am focusing on that here.

My very unpopular opinion apparently:

Straight cis perisex able-bodied neurotypical people using aids designed for disabled people (I.e weighted blankets, grabby claw, sock holder, etc), going to therapists occasionally to keep up their mental health, using fidget toys, choosing to call their bf/gf their partner, using pronouns besides the ones associated with their gender just because they like it, and doing a million other small things that make us fitting in and being accepted a little bit easier is in fact exactly the type of support these communities need, and will ultimately help us so much more than gatekeeping ever fuckin will

God I really wish carrying stuffed animals around with you was socially acceptable

[mitch-that-bitch]

I don’t mean to take over a post, but I actually did a project on this for my sociology of deviance class in college!

I carried a large stuffed rabbit whenever I went in public for about a week to observe the reaction of others. The point of the project was to do something harmless yet unusual to see if the action would be considered deviant, in which case someone had to try to correct or shame the behavior.

Long story short, nobody tried to correct my behavior. I was asked about it casually, had a few lingering stares thrown my way and when I was with my boyfriend, shop employees would direct questions to him instead of me. However, nobody refused to assist me when I was alone in a store, nobody said anything about the rabbit besides “oh, thats a cute bunny!” and I attended college classes without even a teacher questioning it.

In conclusion, it is socially acceptable to carry a stuffed animal, its just not a societal norm. ^^

DOING IT

[thebibliosphere]

My friend gave me a stuffed monkey plushy when I was struggling with uni, and I took him everywhere for like four years, usually velcrod to my backpack. No one said a damn thing, except my renaissance professor who saw it one day in the hallway and cracked the fuck up because I had a literal monkey on my back and he just looked at me like, “oh god, me too”. I used to leave him on desks during classes and exams (the monkey, not my prof). It was my reminder that someone cared if I was coping. But more than that it was soothing to have something to fidget with that wasn’t a pen. I used to ping those fucking things across the room I was so agitated. Harder to hurt people with a projectile stuffed monkey.

[kripke-is-my-king]

I got what I thought was a normal screen cleaning kit for my computer while I was in college. Much to my delight, instead of a little washcloth or whatever, the kit came with a tiny stuffed pig. 

So I carried this pig in my backpack all through college, periodically taking it out, spraying my screen, and using the pig to wipe it off. 

Now, I kept the pig in the side pocket of my bag where he was completely visible.

Then one day in screenwriting class I pulled him out to wipe my screen. 

One of the guys sitting next to me looked appalled. “You’re wiping it off with your little stuffed animal??” 

I explained what the pig was. 

Turns out, the guy had noticed it and just thought it was adorable I carried a stuffed animal with me every day. He’d never mentioned it before. 

Honestly, people do not care, and will not say anything. No matter the reason for your little stuffed animal friend. 

[marcys-underground]

And if you’re still really nervous about it keep a stuffed animal keychain on your bag. I have a cute little frog that stays on my backpack so when work gets stressful I can squeeze it.

[peanutbutterbananasmoothie-deac]

For my anxious followers.

[shadowy-dumbo-octopus]

Confirmed. I take my Venom tsum tsum to uni when I need a little mental boost. The little goo always brings me good luck and overall makes my day just a tiny bit better. I haven’t received a single comment about them so far.

Bring your stuffed buddies to class/work/whatever, guys. People don’t care.

[lemonsharks]

I have a couple of Ikea sharks* and have had cause to periodically carry them around in public - one of which I bought with the last $15 I had at the time, after making a series of big life changes. “This is frivolous and I don’t have to care about that because I’m getting paid shortly—I’m going to do it!”

The reactions I get range from amusement through delight and “WHERE DID YOU GET THAT” but so far, never disapproval.

The moral of the story is Carry Your Emotional Support Plushie With Pride, You Deserve It.

*pictured: not my shark

[taraljc]

true story: I once had an appallingly awful day at the hell job and it coincided with my giant squishy Baymax being delivered from China, and no lie I hugged on that Baymax to keep from crying until it was time to leave

[lauraannegilman]

I travel with DC (”Don’t Care”) the Emotional Support Honey Badger.  I go through TSA with him attached to my backpack, I hug him when I sleep in transit, I prop him next to me in cafes in cities, towns, and rural areas.  The only time anyone’s ever so much as raised an eyebrow at me was the TSA agent who recognized what he was, and asked it he could get his picture taken with him.

People don’t judge.  Kids think you’re awesome. You get a companion who never judges you.  It’s all win.
