shitposts and musicals

like for velvette and val we at least saw them go to places outside the tower

but vox? episode 2: v tower, episode 4: v tower, episode 8: v tower. this guy has not physically stepped outside at all. and even when it LOOKED like he did

he actually fucking didn't

please step outside bro.

Ok I'm sorry I already regret this post

if you're arospec and acespec, you can use the label aroace. if you're aromantic and acespec you can use the label aroace. if you're arospec and asexual you can use the label aroace. and ofc if you're aromantic and asexual you can use the label aroace.

if you belong in both the aromantic spectrum & the asexual spectrum, regardless of your specific labels for each: you can use the label AROACE 💚💜.

Reblog for a bigger sample size.

The term "beta" in this context is short for "beta reader" - a person who reads a fic while it's still in the editing stage and helps the writer get it ready to post. Some betas check grammar. Some check canon compliance. Some are sensitivity readers. There are lots of things that betas can do.

So functionally, saying "no beta" means that the writer didn't get this checked by a second person before they posted it. It's a warning that there might be errors or typos etc. It's mostly used when an author has written something quickly and is posting without doing a lot of (or any) edits first.

As for where it comes from? It all started with a bumper sticker.

This image was an internet meme at one point, and it got meme'd on in the form of "no ___ we ___ like men"

Here on tumblr, one of the versions that got really popular was from now-deleted user @grec1a who created this version:

[Image ID: Screenshot of tags reading "#I'M SORRY. THE ORIGIN WAS WHAT #HOW DO YOU NOT HAVE AIRBAGS". /.End ID]

Fun fact, airbags were introduced in the 1970's for broad commercial use in personal passenger vehicles but only became mandatory in vehicles built after September 1, 1998 in the US. That's only 25 years ago.

good for u that turning off the lights and lighting a scented candle instead and listening to music or put on a show and using a bath bomb etc etc helps u but like none of those tips are that beneficial for physically disabled ppl specifically.

grab bars or shower chair as ^^^ said

sponge bath or wipes for a quick clean

dry shampoo

sit in the shower

make sure the water isn't too hot, especially my POTS folks! Temp changes make us pass out, reduce your risk of fainting or getting dizzy and nauseous pls

lay down immediately after ur done showering, seriously

no don't get dressed first, give yourself a lil bit

if you NEED to get dressed immediately, do so sitting or laying down in bed

Compression socks after are a GODSEND

This one's also aimed towards POTS folks, have a gatorade or liquid iv ready to down the second you're out

clean bottom to top, because chances are ur energy to bend down will be higher at the start of your shower

for my ppl with inflammation, don't discount epsom salt baths. they're not for everyone but i find them quite nice

for ppl who live with other ppl that they completely trust, and who are afraid they may fall: You don't have to have someone in the bathroom with you, but talk about leaving the door unlocked so they can get to you in an emergency, and let them know when ur in and out of the shower too

my fellow ehlers danlos ppl, the hot water WILL relax your muscles and that WILL result in a higher chance of dislocations during and after showering. Have all available braces at the READY and be extra careful pls

KT tape ppl, take your tape off in the shower or with baby oil. do NOT just peel it off dry skin for the love of GOD

10 tips but I do not care.

Have a cookie <3
