I stay sillayyyyy >:3

your kingdom honestly sucks. your princess replaced all of the knights with animated suits of armor :/

i stuck my hand inside the hollow suit of armour and it was wet in there

what's your problem

it was wet in there

This what I mean when I say science writing is terrible and you need to actually go back to the academic publications themselves to get what’s going on

i am just moved by everything now. i'm porous and everything gets inside me

ma'am, I'm going to place you on a brief hold while I look for a reaction image

Kinda wild how most people generally recognize that the "too sick to go to school, too sick to watch tv/play games" mindset our parents had was bullshit but still impose essentially the exact same rules on disabled adults and scrutinize them for enjoying low-energy hobbies while being too fatigued or in pain to work a full time job (or any job at all)

Martha Wells is uniquely powerful as a sci-fi writer because she brings the strengths of the social scientist sf author (college degree in anthropology and it shows) AND the tech guy sf author (has worked in tech support and it shows)

this is really interesting in how it frames disability/low spoons/etc as not being a series of internal symptoms, but specifically a situation in which daily tasks increase in complexity. for example i used to be able to wash the dishes normally. but now mental and physical issues combine to make that situation have a lot of prequalifications (do I have time, energy, how long can I do it without being sore the next day) that means many more steps are involved in getting that single physical act of washing a dish to be done.
