#adus

I believe that would be considered (vulvar) hypospadias!

If you're confused because "Well it *feels like* it's coming out the middle when I pee", same here and it turns out I have extra skin that the urine hits and deflects the stream anteriorly (forward). If your stream threatens to hit the rim of the toilet bowl, maybe needing you to angle your butt out to not do that especially if your thighs (and thus vulva) are spread out when voiding, you might have an Anteriorly-deflected Urinary Stream (ADUS) too.

i’ve read a bit about ADUS and i have like the opposite problem??? it goes all the way backwards?

anyways i’m so thankful for your blog!! i’ve got to find some time to sit down and read through your doc -🪼

Vulvar hypospadias is a colloquial term for the various types of hypospadias that occur on people with vulvas. There are a few different names, according to one researcher it goes vestibular, vestibulovaginal, and then vaginal. Vestibular is the one where it's lower, while vestibulovaginal touches/borders the vaginal introitus, and vaginal is completely inside (PUGS).

I have heard of some people with ADUS having many different streams depending on how they're positioned, sometimes going all the way back or on their butt. However, I can very much imagine a way that the urethra is angled in such a way (due to, say, being slightly lowered or indented into the vaginal canal) that would cause it to shoot back. I don't have any term for this but I would be inclined to believe it stems from VH!

I love Shallan. She is so innocent and also so educated, like the exact perfect blend of "if I was in my own city, I'd be a boss ass bitch" but she's in a new place and she's excited and always has shit she wants to say, and she could get robbed at any moment, but she's not dumb for it. Perfect example of "smart person in a place they don't know"

I love how they started with everyone talking about how cool and impressive Kaladin was, how he led a team and was the best group leader, how pretty much everyone always survived under his leadership... Until they Didn't, and now he's a wet rat of a man (understandably)

I'm unsure how the two prologues tie into everything but my god... They were frickin' sick, yes (I also just have this with "a war a thousand years ago" prologues, same thing happened to me with FE3H, couldn't tell you how that prologue is relevant)

Shardblades sound dope :)

Kurik: *as a ghost* I’m the love of your life?

Aslade: I don’t know, I’m still angry at you.

Adus: *gets smacked again*

Aslade: And that’s for trying to murder my step-son.

Adus: Huh?

Why will we see more ADUs in the U.S.?

There’s a lot of single-family zoning in the center of our cities, and urban planners, civil society, and city leaders are questioning whether these zoning rules make sense. We’re missing dwellings that can house more people and are more affordable, such as duplexes, triplexes, and ADUs.

I don’t think tiny houses on wheels will soon become a widespread form of housing, because they aren’t yet permittable. But media coverage of them has helped to spur more interest in small housing in general. These factors are positioning ADUs to become a popular movement.

Not a placement thing. This is called anteriorly-deflected urinary stream, or ADUS. TL;DR extra skin around the urethra that deflects your pee stream more forward and up. I've lived with it Forever so I know how to position myself subconsciously and have been lucky enough to previously live in houses that have large toilet bowls, but recently I too have accidentally pissed *over* the toilet seat and on my boxers.

But vulvar hypospadias is often associated with some hyperandrogenic variations like (N)CAH. However both of these can usually be seen if you find your urethral meatus (opening). I say usually but ADUS might not be immediately noticable (if at all?) and I could just be particularly observant, and if your meatus is just straight up inside your hole (called a persistent urogenital sinus by that point, but it's still technically on the hypospadias continuum) that *might* be a bit harder to visually catch lol.
