Love how tumblr has its own folk stories. Yeah the God of Arepo we’ve all heard the story and we all still cry about it. Yeah that one about the woman locked up for centuries finally getting free. That one about the witch who would marry anyone who could get her house key from her cat and it’s revealed she IS the cat after the narrator befriends the cat.
The defeat of the wizard who made people choose how they’d be to be executed
The woman who raised the changeling alongside her biological child
The human who died of radiation poisoning after repairing the spaceship
The adventures of a space roomba
Cinderella finding Araura (and falling in love)
I don’t know a snappy description but the my nemesis cynthia story certainly lives in my head
What about the one with the princess locked in a tower learning to become a wizard? That’s lived in my mind for years and I haven’t seen it in a long time
I can hardly take any credit for these stories! But I love sharing them. Unfortunately I cannot read all the prompt responses so please tag me if you want me to reblog a story that resonated with you so I can give it a little boost :)

dropkicks-self-off-cliffReblogged lesbianraggedyannelove-ardour-anarchismFollowGrowing up dysphoric and closeted it’s so easy to view manhood as a prison, masculinity as it’s cruel warden and testosterone as poison.When you’re raised inside a single room with no escape in sight, forced to contort your body and your soul out of shape to conform, how could you not?But a room is just a room.When we fight our way outside we come to realize there are others who were also raised in rooms like that.And there’s some who upon gaining freedom decorate their room the way our prison was.I have one piece of advice for you: sit with them. Drink some tea in that room that looks just like the one you almost died in. Internalize the fact that whoever lives there now is free to go and happy just to stay.Manhood may not have been who you were. Masculinity might be foreign to you.Testosterone might have done things to you that you hated.But a room is just a room is just a room.To someone else it’s home.88214

dropkicks-self-off-cliffReblogged bambiraptorxnightmaretourFollowI see a lot of posts around this time of year that talk about getting a mobility aid if you need one and that you aren't "not disabled enough" to get one if it'll help, which is true! But I don't see a lot about making sure you get the right mobility aid. You do need to do some research to make sure it's the correct one for your needs, because using the wrong one long term will hurt you. If you can see a specialist about it that's even better, but that's not accessible to everyone. One thing I see a lot is people suggesting canes as a catch-all mobility aid for everyone who has mobility issues. Canes are not for weight bearing! If you use a cane for heavy weight bearing long term, you will hurt your wrists and back! Canes are for balance. There are also different types of canes, but someone else can probably explain those better than I can.A crutch/pair of crutches is better for bearing weight, particularly forearm/support crutches if you're going to be using them a lot and don't want to strain your wrists, or platform crutches if you don't have a lot of arm strength. Walkers/rollators are good for if you do have arm and hand strength and need a place to sit down or need to carry a lot with you, but very very bad if you can't weight bear well with your arms or pull the brakes easily. You will often need to be able to use your foot to maneuver it over a slight lip, too. If you can't do all of those things you will hurt yourself.Wheelchairs are a whole lot more complicated and I don't feel qualified to speak on that (I've only ever used improperly fitted chairs, and have suffered permanent damage because of it).Mobility scooters are great for going outside alone if you don't have the arm strength for a manual chair, as they can handle terrain that an motorised wheelchair often can't, but are harder to maneuver in small spaces (especially bulky class 3 scooters, which aren't designed for indoor use at all) and usually aren't suitable for full time use. If you need more support they most likely won't be suitable either, the seats are usually not designed with support for people who cannot hold themselves upright and generally do not have a seatbelt by default. I'm working on a proper guide for this and will hopefully post it soon!There's also deconditioning to keep in mind, which is very important to think about if you aren't doing physiotherapy. You also need to consider things like pressure sores, which you will be especially prone to in seated mobility aids if you aren't able to reposition yourself regularly or have loss of sensation in or awareness of any part of your body.Do your research! Don't just default to a cane!fibrofoxAlso make sure your cane (if that's the best mobility aids for you/your needs) is the correct height! I had mine too tall, and it caused severe shoulder pain. My physiotherapist noticed that the shoulder pain was on the side I used my cane, and checked the height of the cane. The cane should be as high as your wrist when your arm is hanging beside you.Here's a link about choosing a cane style and fitting it to yourself:https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/healthy-aging/in-depth/canes/art-20548206askablindpersonIt’s a slightly different flavor of mobility aid but I haven’t seen White canes brought up here yet and this absolutely applies to them too. White canes are not all created equal and there is so much more to consider than what the websites tell you.A white cane that is too short can slow you down and get you hurt. If your cane isn’t long enough, you don’t have enough time to react between when your cane finds something like the top of a step or curb and you falling off of it. You will see sources that tell you it needs to come up to your sternum or armpit, but this is very old outdated advice. Aim for something at least chin or nose height, and many people use something taller than that to enable faster walking speeds and greater reaction times.The first results that come up when you Google White canes are probably also going to be very shitty very heavy canes. A heavy white cane can really fuck up your wrist and hand and cause a lot of repetitive stress injuries. I mean it, please don’t just buy the first white cane that comes up on Amazon, you will injure yourself using one of those things long-term. Prioritize something lightweight, ergonomic, and very responsive to tactile feedback. Your hands and wrists will thank you.Many people gravitate toward the shitty canes because they are usually cheap, but they are cheap for a reason. If you need something cheap, check out the free white cane Program instead.215288

The idea was to take the classic Rider-Waite tarot deck of 78 cards and create a photographic version of each card using settings and objects in the vibrant ghetto of Haiti.As Smeets says, “The spirit of the Ghetto Tarot project is the inspiration to turn negative into positive while playing. The group of artists ‘Atiz Rezistans’ use trash to create art with their own visions that are a reflection of the beauty they see hidden within the waste. They are claiming the word ‘Ghetto,’ thus freeing themselves of its depreciating undertone and turning it into something beautiful.”Source: bloodbonestelephones4127,04332,400

I was absolutely miserable, trying to drag my giant suitcase up a lengthy set of stairs in the pouring rain. This guy who had already reached the top looked back at me with the most pure expression of disgust I’ve ever seen in anyone’s eyes, marched back down the stairs, grabbed my suitcase, carried it to the top, left it there for me, and walked away without ever saying a word. I think about him often. just7frogsinapeoplesuitFor the people in the notes going "why is Boston like this": a) the insults are a way to show you have no ulterior motives when helping someone (and don't need to be thanked or repaid), and b) Boston was settled by the Irishdirehydroidalso the Italians. mixing Irish and Italian sociocultural attitudes had the effect of multiplying the Sass Levels by the power of infinity, in the sense that you get all of the clever dry wit of the Irish and all of the bitchy gossipy condensation of the Italians rolled into one very stereotypically overly-friendly American package. also worth noting that who you are to them doesn’t matter. they’ll talk to strangers like that and will also talk to their best friends like that. they’re just Like That. just7frogsinapeoplesuitMore from the notes:24452,91568,606

The original, unedited version of this cartoon, by Clay Butler, was published in 1996, and looks like this:Someone went to a lot of effort to not only remove the cartoonist's credits, but also make the joke weaker. In the original, the graffiti is a lone and comparatively small, unremarkable tag in single-line monochrome. It contrasts with the billboards and signs by being unobtrusive, making it all the more absurd that the pig notices it with such vitriol. The edited version loses the impact by making it stand out in bright color and cover the whole of the wall.5619,17224,510
