Peeps in extreme temperatures, plain water is NOT the only way to stay hydrated and can in fact be more dangerous if you're sweating a lot and not putting more electrolytes back into your body.
There are a ton of quick and cheap electrolyte drink recipes that you can find online. Tea, coffee, cocount water, milk, milk substitutes, juice, etc are all hydrating despite extremely persistent myths. Many fruits and veggies like cucumbers, watermelon, strawberries, bell peppers, etc have high water content and are a great way to hydrate while also getting vital nutrients. Popsicles are also a good way to stay cool and hydrated and you can buy them or make your own with whatever ingredients you want; there are recipes online, including ones for electrolyte popsicles, but you can also just do basic ones with your choice of fruit juice and whatever you want to add, like chunks of fresh or frozen fruit.
Anyone who is telling you that you can ONLY drink plain water to stay hydrated is incredibly misinformed, even if they have experience with high temperatures.
If you're feeling shitty but been drinking plenty of water and have nothing to make an electrolyte drink
1. Eat fruit
2. Eat something with salt.
I had a day during the worst of the heatwave when I was a feeling really ill and I realised I hadn't had anything with sodium for a good while. I ate some crisps (chips) and immediately felt better. Was that the healthiest option? Maybe not. Was it the most accessible at the time? Absolutely
My mom was a camp counsellor and they were constantly telling the kids to eat potato chips as well as drink water bc chips are the easiest form of salt. Also gives you a little fat and starch boost. So yeah. Summer is the best time of year to have salty snacks!
🐌What is your favorite super tiny detail in your wip?
Oh! Thank you 💛
I have a couple favorite tiny details.
1) Our spaceship the Sour Cherry has a rough engine that’s constantly throwing out a pink vapor. It stains the crew members on it. Her pilot Finch has pink staining on his pants, shoes, and fingertips.
2) naming things selflessly after things I love like my character Vesper’s planet Illyria, named after a location in my favorite Shakespeare play; Twelfth Night
3) While some things like folklore or side characters may appear as only small details. I often lay out whole backstories or actual legends about them because I simply can’t help myself.
so embarrassing when i forget im checking someone's blog and i start scrolling through and liking and reblogging shit as if it's just my dash. it feels like wandering into someone else's apartment and not noticing and making myself lunch

Gets stuck in the past and makes a random village get way smarter and less violent in a generational sense because I keep smacking people over the head with a stick and telling them that it’s the devil’s metal whenever they try to use lead for something in my presence and there develops a very niche regionalized superstition that an angry warlock will jump out of a tree and beat the shit out of you if you touch lead with your bare hands
Gets excommunicated by the Catholic Church for telling people that they can banish the devil from their water if they boil it therefore saving hundreds of people from a cholera outbreak but I don’t care and keep trying to convince the locals to use soap more often
Gets seen as crazy when I say I’m distilling peppermint oil to banish the miasma but people start asking to have some real quick when the Black Death comes to town and I am unaffected due to my constantly minty fresh house repelling rodents and fleas alike
if miss fairy tale detective was a children's animation... hmm. i mean, i think it'd suit a softer colour palette and style of animation, more than anything. some things would also have to be... altered to suit a show aimed at kids, but possibly not outright removed, rather toned down or implied instead of outright stated.
but watership down is still for children so? i guess my strongest thought is on the style it would take, rather than the story. certain stories in miss fairy tale detective definitely wouldn't work if they were aimed at children though, i know that much.
Hello there, thank you for the ask. I'll answer for my wip Broken Worlds Apart.
If I were to adapt it as a children’s animated series, I’d start earlier in the timeline, when the world is still intact, so that our heroes can save it. There would also have to be one big, bad evil. I’d make it more black-and-white than it is in the original work. The General and his Demon, a truly powerful Fighter-Shifter duo, are the villains. Kae, Aiden, and Theia’s goal is to save the world from them.
I’d also emphasize a specific aspect of how Fighters and Shifters work: the better they know each other and the closer their bond, the stronger they become as a unit. So the moral of the story would be that you’re always stronger together. They have to stand together as friends to have a chance of defeating the evil General. Problems that are too big for a single person to solve can be overcome with the help of friends.
Apart from that, I’d probably have them wear color-coded outfits and have them fly around in space a lot.
happy sts!! what is the shittiest job your main character (or anyone idk live ur dreams) has had to work and why was it so terrible?
Mabel is technically working the shittiest job! She had no experience in cutting down trees or any real outdoor survival skills when she made her deal with the Beast, and it got worse with the psychological torment he inflicted on her.
But the Flower Queen adjusted! She survives and thrives!

For @flashfictionfridayofficial's Lush Life, a snippet of Bride of Loki, with buttercups blossoming in lava.
"Freyr." She sounded…unimpressed.
She blinked. "Freyr?"
"A hostage from the war with the Vanir, back when Asgard was being built. The most moronic and pathetic god I've ever met. His sister Freya was the bright one." She took a sip of her drink, some of the honey liquid dripping off her chin and into the bath, adding the smell of burnt sugar to the s’mores scent. "Don't get me wrong, he's powerful. I just seriously doubt he'll be much help- he's a pushover. I wasn’t kidding when I said his sister was the bright one. He gave up his sword just to marry some giantess and was the first to die in the battle." A hand with fingernails painted soft purple made a shooing motion. "You should try to find Sigyn first, or Odin. Or maybe Thor if you have to. Just nobody like Freyr."
Siv perched on the tub’s edge. After a moment of hesitation, she stuck her feet into the lava. The sensation that greeted her was actually pleasant, unlike the awful burning of her vomit. "But we have no time to be picky. Plus he looks nice and the host is someone who used to be important to me."
"I see." Her words were knowing. Siv stared evenly back and finally Loki rolled her eyes and looked away. "Alright, go ahead and recruit him." She leaned back down into her lava bath. "Just don't waste too much of your time." She sank deeper into the tub with a comfortable groan. Siv sighed, considering the drawing of Freyr.
He couldn’t be that weak, could he? Not if he wanted to stick around Mabelle.
Maybe, little kid Mabelle. Siv felt a smile form at the memory of Mabelle- covered in bandages and bruises and proud of whatever dangerous thing she had accomplished. She got in so much trouble beating up the bullies that bothered Siv.
Not so much now.
Siv sighed as she shut the book and tucked it back into her drawer. There was no time to think back. She needed to figure out how to reach Mabelle and Freyr now.
Something caught her eye.
A group of pretty buttercups was peeking out of a hollow next to a corner of the bath, their color bright and cheery. An unfelt breeze moved them, seemingly beckoning for her to investigate. Weird. Loki didn't seem the type to the garden. Siv blinked in confusion, jumping fully in and wading over. The god didn't stir as she splashed past to the other side. She leaned forward. "Hello?"
The buttercups didn’t say a word, simply bobbing their yellow petals in some breeze. On a guess, Siv held her hand out and shivered. There was a breeze, coming from the back of the hollow. With a grunt, she lifted herself up next to the buttercups to look down the hollow.
A wooden door, a sorrowful face depicted in green on it, was at the back of the hollow. The door was cracked open a tad to allow the breeze. She frowned and grabbed the silver handle in the middle, opening it. Despite her small size, it was a surprisingly tight fit and reminded her of that Old World book, Alisa in Wonder. Siv squeezed through with a grunt, blinking at a green wallpapered crawlspace. There was a light up ahead and the sound of birdsong.
i had a dream last night that the entire world used a currency (?) called angrypennies which as the name implies are obtained by experiencing anger. the stronger and more intense your anger was, the more angrypennies you'd gain. an all-consuming rage would earn you more than a slight irritation, etc. so people were always searching for ways to fuel their anger and purposefully keeping themselves angry all the time because they wanted to earn angrypennies. unclear if angrypennies could be exchanged for goods and services, or if they were just a collectible.
anyway, as if this wasn't heavy-handed enough, at one point british comedian greg davies appeared and explained that angrypennies couldn't be worth feeling angry all the time. this was a real revelation to dream-me and i was finally able to break free of the angrypenny grind and allow myself to experience emotions other than anger.
it goes without saying that i will be using the word angrypenny as if it was part of the common vernacular instead of a term that my dreaming brain conjured up i.e. "he's all about the angrypennies" (derogatory way to refer to a guy who searches for reasons to be angry and possibly lacks introspection)
I know that sometimes the hesitation to use mobility devices is about how it looks, both aesthetically and in terms of 'am I a strong person, worthy of existing'.
Canes come in a HUGE variety of colors, styles, materials, and ways to decorate it. As long as it's the right length, sturdy enough for your weight, and has a non-slip tip there's a good chance it'll do for you*.
Additionally: there are a lot of assholes that don't want you to take care of yourself this way. People who use accessibility aids despite the social pressure not to and their own internalized ableism are powerful people.
Additionally additionally: You are not taking anything away from anyone else when using your own personal cane or rollator. You're just making it easier for other people to exist while using them.
Most importantly: Anyone who thinks accessibility aids are bad for you is a person who is not good for you. Fuck'em.
*For tumblr contrarians: if you need something more specialized than the kind you see in the drug stores, you'll know it. Plus, those can also look cool.

Sometimes, those photos need to be taken underneath vehicles. This is difficult as underneath a vehicle is very dark, but metal is very reflective, which makes using a flashlight both necessary and an issue.
Now, my favorite manager once said of me, "look at her. she burns if she looks at the forecast for too long" which is the meanest and truest thing ever said about my complexion.
Did I, partially as a joke, try to diffuse the flashlight beam off the underside of my forearm in order to get pictures underneath a truck once? Yes. Did it work? Also yes.
When I explained how I got the photos to my (different) manager, he looked at me and said very tiredly, "that is the saddest thing I've ever heard."
"oh no it's even worse than that," I assured him, and proceeded to remove my watch to show him my tan lines.
