shit

batman villains are funny bc they all end up in arkham over and over so its just like

killer croc, painting a beautiful and sensitive portrait representing his inner turmoil: i had no idea (insert plant) was an invasive species in gotham

poison ivy, painting a photorealistic fern: they are! they’re so widespread that its almost impossible to contain, and it really hurts my heart

joker trying so fucking hard not to call them homophobic slurs because the therapist told him he’d get extra joker mush if he behaved for once in his fucking life:

at this point the toxic waste he fell into fucked him up so bad he wont eat anything that hasnt been mashed up and irradiated so the arkham doctors just throw random shit in a pot and mash it up for him. he loves it

so i’m sure by now most of you have seen the news story about the patriots using their team plane to fly ppe into massachusetts from china (or at least if you’re local to new england you probably have).

it’s being shared on the news as a heartwarming story of a football team stepping up for their local area, but it’s also absolutely a sign of how truly and deeply fucked the federal response to this has been.

some background: massachusetts has received somewhere in the neighborhood of 17% of the ppe requested from the federal stockpile, and not one single ventilator. we requested 1000 of those and have now had to up our request to 1400. we have repeatedly been outbid by the federal government and now, most recently, had shipments of ppe that we ordered straight up seized by the feds in new york.

so, in desperation, our governor set up A SECRET DIPLOMATIC BACKCHANNEL to essentially beg china to send us badly needed equipment and make sure the federal government couldn’t seize it this time

florida has received multiple shipments of supplies in this same time frame, on time and unmolested by federal authorities. the difference? governor ron desantis is buddy buddy with trump and florida is a big swing state for the election. states that get on trump’s shit list are having to beg, borrow, and steal so that more people don’t die.

this is deeply, incredibly fucked and i don’t want anyone to ever forget it.

Okay I can see why some people might want this...

Oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck

GIVE ME YOUR BIOMETRIC DATA SO I CAN ANALYSE YOUR BONE STRUCTURE CHILDREN🤪

That’s genuinely terrifying

Giggle me timbers, it's a nightmare frankensocialmedia.

So, what do they actually collect and what do they do with it? Well:

Collecting my data? My biometrics and location?

You betcha.

And you will sell all that information?

Gotta make a profit ❤️

And how about information on my ethnicity, political standing, religion, criminal record, location, my biometrics, sexuality and gender?

Well. We will sell that too, but only to the good girls and guys 😊 We will sell your biometrics to facial recognition software and everything else to your government or others, that give us enough money 🙏

So if I am in a country that wants to target me for my ethnicity, religious beliefs, sexuality, gender identity or political standing, you will sell them this information?

In a heartbeat 🏳️‍🌈

.....

Do not use this Plattform. Please.

called giggle because the developers are laughing at anyone who signs up for this villianous platform

Jesus fuck, I thought they were kidding

Bloody hell

What a fun way to practice phrenology AND the comodification of every aspect of your life at the same time!

Please don't let them deceive you. There's also a big thing about allowing trans women. Many of them gave their faces to "play the system" but just gave away their info instead. They had no clue what they were doing.

what if i called you a nickname you say you hate to avoid confronting the fact that i have feelings for you but then when you get badly hurt drop all pretenses and call you by your full real name because i'm too emotionally overwhelmed to keep being the silly annoying comedian of the group any longer haha... no i'm just kidding... unless?

and what if you only say you hate the nickname i gave you because you're also trying to avoid confronting the fact that you have feelings for me and every time i use it your heart stutters in your chest and you have to stop yourself from blushing and smiling sappily at me... lmao i'm joking... but if i wasn't?

This man is trapped in his house with what's going to be like 1000 giant moths and it is somehow the funniest thing I have seen in days.

I rarely reblog things but this is an old classmate of mine! I haven’t seen him in years but he always took moths and other insects to school to look after them.  Hang in there, Bart!

The things you’ve been wanting to hear but that no one will tell you because they don’t realize how difficult a chronic condition can be:

  • It’s so hard. Damn, girl, it must be so difficult trying to coordinate 5+ different doctors’ appointments with a full-time job. Do you have benefits? Do you get paid sick days or time off? That sucks that you have to leave work unpaid just to be able to take care of your health, and that it consumes entire days.
  • You relocated to a new city and have to find an entire new team of doctors? That must be frustrating and difficult, especially since the relationships you built with your former doctors were important. I know you don’t just rely on doctors for prescriptions but also for emotional support. You’ve had the same rheumatologist since Day 1 of the conversation about rheumatoid arthritis, and she’s been awesome with you every step of the way. It must be hard to have to say goodbye to someone you trust and appreciate as your doctor and start over from scratch with unfamiliar faces. Not only do you have to worry about whether these new doctors will even take your insurance… but will they know what they’re talking about? Will you trust them? Will they listen to you? Will you like them or will you dread these time-consuming, frequent visits even more than you already do, which shouldn’t be necessary?
  • Hey, nobody really understands what you’re going through. People want to be there for you. (Do they?) 
  • You’re so strong for handling all this!!!!! It can’t be easy. And it’s okay if you’re upset or frustrated or impatient or stressed or angry. You’re going through a lot, and these are normal feelings. It’s normal to feel frustrated since nobody will really understand unless they also have a chronic health condition. It’s normal to feel isolated because you’re 23 and sometimes feel like you’re 70 with all the doctor appointments you need to make, and meanwhile your 23 year old friends are drinking and partying next door without a worry. It’s normal to feel angry when doctors’ visits consume entire days of your week, because you’re ambitious and busy and have things to be doing other than sitting in offices waiting for another new stranger to bark at you about insurance policies. It’s normal to worry about romantic relationships, because who will want to have to deal with this crap and your days of feeling low when shit hits the fan?
  • You’re a lioness. You handle all of these hurdles with such grace (at least 70% of the time). You work hard, bring light into a room, tear up a dance floor, and get shit done. On top of this shit!!!!!!
  • It’s okay to be sad about it sometimes. You try so hard to stay strong.
  • You’re strong!! You’re awesome!! You got this girl and I’m here for you if you ever want to talk or vent or have supportive company!!!! (omg can you imagine if people could be empathetic enough to say that to me)

Anonymous asked:

Do you support minor self diagnosis?

I started cracking my knuckles in fifth grade. My parents asked me why, and I told them it made the pain go away. My parents told me that I was too young for my joints to hurt, and that I would ruin them if I kept cracking them.

By the time was fourteen or fifteen and entering high school, I hadn’t stopped cracking my knuckles. The hurt more, and the relief was more. I was convinced that I had arthritis.

My parents told me that I was too young to have arthritis.

Fast forward thirty seven years when my joints take a dive and I cannot even get out of bed on some days. I take chemo therapy pills twice a week, and I have two injections of chemotherapy ever four months. I have to take two medications every day just to manage the pain the chemotherapy doesn’t cover.

This at least allows me to get out of bed and on most days it allows me to go to school. It doesn’t make the pain go away, and on bad days I want to cry it gets so bad.

The diagnosis? Early Onset Rheumatoid Arthritis.

It went unchecked for twenty five years, my immune system eating away at my joints like a buffet even though I wanted to go to the doctor from day one.

If I had gone to the doctor and I had been wrong - they found nothing - well, we would have been out a few bucks for the doctor’s visit.If I was right - and I was right - I would have been treated for 20 years.

If I had gone to the doctor on my insistence that I had arthritis at fifteen, I would not be in pain today. This would have been treated twenty years go.

Do I support minor self diagnosis?

Yes. Absolutely.

I would rather a minor self diagnose and be wrong than a minor ignore their body and suffer for 20 years like me. No one is harmed by listening to a minor and taking their concerns seriously. But that minor might be harmed for the rest of their life you ignore them.

My choice is always to listen to the minors about their bodies.
