Continuing my quest to prove that all your favourite franchises need a gay Deaf character:

Please meet Timothy, the Deaf What We Do in the Shadows vampire.

Uhm. Is it on? D-Do I look good? 

Hello, people in the camera. My name is Timothy, and I am a Deaf vampire now living in New Zealand. Being a Deaf vampire is no different than any other kind of vampire. I am still inhumanly strong and damned for all eternity to drink the blood of humans. 

I-I’m sorry? No, I do not know where this accent is from either, and- Oh, James! James, you’ve lost your crucifix. That could be very dangerous, here let me help.

To impress the other vampires, I tell them my hearing aid batteries are made of silver. They’re not. They’re zinc. 

The only difficult part of being a vampire who is Deaf is I cannot turn into a bat. Well, I can turn into a bat. [smacking sound as the bat crashes into a bookshelf] Echolocation is a little bit embarrassing. 

Also the further you move toward the poles the more pronounced the difference between the length of day and night is. Worst part of a far-north (or south) heatwave is it doesn’t get dark long enough for meaningful cooling.

the ability to laugh while you’re lying tangled and naked together bc you realize just how silly something is is really really intimate and trusting, and it’s the best feeling to be like that with someone and to be relaxed

it happens with long-term partners, it happens on hookups, and it’s rarely as bad as it’s always made out to be, except we usually think it’s bad we're told that’s not how sex is supposed to go. but that’s not true. 

Same sex attraction does not require one to celebrate one of the most evil and misogynistic and exploitative industries to ever exist.

LGB drop the TQ.

Anyways, when I say I have seen a uptick of backlash against expressions of queer sexuality, this is what I mean. If queers aren't allowed to be freaks, then who is?

Me: I am literally just doing my job. Everyone else is slacking off.

invisible

never explained

always a different size

you have to guess the size

yea lol

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

Obvs not all access is wheelchair access I'm just a wheelchair user so hence it centring around wheelchair access

(Inspired by Ruth Martin on Insta go check them out they're super cool and amazing)

a bunch of archives of incredibly important government datasets like maternal mortality statistics are about to be deleted forever. in a regime where they're known to fudge numbers, we can't trust a lot of the data coming from them to not be altered. open source backups like those found on data.world are vital to being able to verify that the data coming from our government is still intact and not altered. and they're about to delete all of it.

i don't know if we need to start a petition or what. nobody seems to fucking care. there are millions of users on data.world and yet nobody is raising the alarm bells and it makes me feel like I'm going insane. somebody needs to do something. i don't know what to do. it feels like more and more of this world is being destroyed and dismantled. it's not only US centric data, either! it's all sorts of countries from around the world! and they're about to fucking delete everything.

the only things that won't be deleted are private companies who happen to use the paid version of their platform (which isn't accessible data to the open source community; some people have just been using their service to host their own data on privately)

and the kicker? this announcement was made... via an AI generated blog post. so not even any sort of human touch. just a generic, soulless announcement made by a soulless human about to take a wrecking ball to one of the more important websites that exists on the internet.

an example of some of the things that will be deleted on July 11th:
