percy at twelve years old, relaxing at the sound of his mom's voice. percy at twelve years old, looking forward to trips to montauk so he can spend quality time with his mom. percy at twelve years old, getting attacked by a minotaur and, despite everything in his body screaming at him to get to safety, standing his ground so he can fight alongside his mom. percy at tweleve years old, avenging his mom with no training after watching the minotuar murder her right in front of him. percy at tweleve years old, dragging an unconscious grover to the border while sobbing and calling out for his mom even though he thinks she's dead. percy at twelve years old, summoning a blue coke to honor his mom's memory. percy at twelve years old, going on a quest with the sole purpose of bringing his mom back if it's the last thing he does. percy at twelve years old, encountering various life-thretening events becsuse of his godly heritage but choosing to live in the real world instead of at a camp designed to train him and keep him alive anyway because he loves his mom.

vs.

percy at seventeen years old, arriving in manhattan and sprinting toward the apartment as soon as he can. percy at seventeen years old, zooming past people on the street while sobbing because he misses his mom more than anything. percy at seventeen years old, not even making it into the living room before engulfing his mom in a hug for the first time in months. percy at seventeen years old, cuddling up against his mom and napping in her arms on the couch like he's four. percy at seventeen years old, following his mom to the grocery store, helping her out at work, and straight up refusing to leave her side for days weeks if he can help it because he wants to make up for all of the time he's lost with her.

do u ever see someone elses headcannon for ur fave character and its like….. i completely respect that u have the right to that headcannon, i will not confront u at all and start needless bullshit over that headcannon…. but i will silently sit here and give you the sideways glance of the century

me, out loud: hey that’s cool we all have our own interpretations and i support you as part of fandom regardless 

me, in my head: ….but you’re wrong 

I would just like to remind everyone that this is the mature, reasonable, and sensible response.

Saw someone argue that opposing AI art is ableist because this is the only way for some disabled people to make art afjagjsfh. Disabled people have been making art since the dawn of time and because making art is so varied there will always be tons of ways to create despite disability that doesn’t involve ripping artists off by using AI art

Disabled people are honestly so brave for not killing annoying ppl every day I swear to god the disrespect

A lot of professional artists *are disabled* because art as a career affords the kind of flexibility a lot of people need: some days you feel great, some days you feel terrible, some days you have to play by ear, some days you have appointments, and a lot of creative professions allow you to work around that.

AI is actively endangering disabled livelihoods. Don't for a single second let the money-grubbing, art-hating tech bros convince you that they give a damn about what's best for people with disabilities, especially not while they actively infantilize disabled artists. Here is disabled artist Tomihiro Hoshino. He was a gymnastics teacher and mountain climber until an accident in his 20s left him paralyzed from the neck down. In the months that followed, Hoshino struggled to find meaning in a life once based entirely around physical activity.

His friend brought him flowers and Hoshino was so moved by their perfect beauty that he taught himself to draw and eventually paint using his mouth so that he could express the joy he felt at seeing them. He became a nationally famous artist and is studied in Japanese schools. He opened his own gallery in 2005 and he sells his work on Amazon.

Disabled artists do not need AI. Hoshino even attributes his career to his accident, since he might never have taught himself to paint otherwise. *That* is what makes an artist. The absolute drive to create. The need to express something within yourself, whether it's a character you like or the meaning of the universe or the simple beauty of a flower.

Pushing a glorified search button is not "art", and disabled people are not some Uno reverse to deflect from the consequences of tech bros' shady actions. AI bros prey on *real* artists, including plenty of disabled artists.

i know vitamin c basically neutralizes adhd meds but lemonade good

I have been struggling

For a long fucking time

with why my adderall was having such uneven effects and varying efficacy

and the weird pattern of what made it work and not work and if it was building up in my system or not

and fucking nobody told me I shouldn’t drink a glass of Kool-Aid to take the pills with

or eat fucking Pop-Tarts or Life cereal

this is the most useful information I have ever received from tubr and it seems to be confirmed by several other places upon searching

so this actually should be spread like wildfire like actually

Me reading this realizing tunglr dawt kom gave me more information about my medication than MYDOCTORRRRRSSSSSS MYYYYYYYY FUCKENNNNN DOCTORSSSSS PLURAL MULTIPLE DOCTORSSSSSSSS

Reblogging to spread this ridiculously important info

Also if you are ANEMIC and take IRON SUPPLEMENTS DO NOT TAKE WITH CAFFEINE. No coffee, caffeinated tea, etc. The caffeine will block iron absorption and you won’t actually get any of that iron that you just took!!

If you think about it, Shakespeare pioneered the genre of real-person fiction, paving the way for works such as Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Hamilton. Therefore, Shakespeare is directly responsible for Miku binder Thomas Jefferson. In this essay, I will

Hey man don’t do this to me. Come on man. Let’s talk this out. Like mature people. Please please please don’t do this.

it's only at 3k now, let's goooo

my theory is that reincarnation is real and that's why everything is so fucked up. we got too many people on earth and their souls were supposed to spend a few more cycles as endangered animals or smthn but we fucked the environment and overpopulated. so we get guys who was SUPPOSED to be black-footed ferrets or whatever til their soul reached maturity but instead they're like, influencers and politicians. this is also why furries exist.
