Camp Counselors Needed!

Camp is basically my home away from home. Every summer, it's about the only thing I look forward too. Camp Promise does a fantastic job of providing a safe and fun environment for people of all ages with conditions like mine. It's a place where I don't have to worry IF I can do something, just if I want too. I don't have to rely on my parents, and I don't have to worry about my safety in comparison. I'm just able to be me.

Camp Promise East, my specific session, is in dire need of counselors. I know it's far from Berkshire County, but if you or anyone you know would like to travel to Brackney, PA this summer - August 14-19 - for a week of fun and laughs and memories, it would mean the world to me.

This camp is a great way for anyone interested in the medical field to get some hands on experience with dealing with patients. Not that I like to think of us as that, but it is a great way to practice your bedside manner in a less stressful, fun environment. Plus it gives volunteer hours. And again, it's fun!!!

If you, or anyone you know, could be interested, please check out the following link or reach out to me. Thank you very much.

“And that quote, “The only disability in life is a bad attitude,” the reason that that’s bullshit is because it’s just not true.” - Stella Young

[IDs: Screenshots from the late, great, Stella Young’s TED Talk: I’m Not Your Inspiration, Thank You Very Much. Stella is a wheelchair-user sitting up on the stage in front of a massive crowd. In these screenshots, she’s saying, “No amount of smiling at a flight of stairs has ever made it turn into a ramp. Never. (Laughter. Applause.) Smiling at a television screen isn’t going to make closed captions appear for people. No amount of standing in the middle of a bookshop and radiating a positive attitude is going to turn all those books into braille.]

I use this speech and the underlying theories a lot in my PhD, but Stella Young honestly had one of those voices that needs to be heard by everyone, so I figured I’d post my favorite part of the speech here. If anyone remembers that time I threw myself onto the floor For The Vine, you’ll know that I also hate the quote: “The only disability in life is a bad attitude”. Stella just conveyed the message with less pain.

Something’s happening on twitter….

If this is true... I'm gonna be kind of disappointed. All the arcs so far have had some emphasis on the characters families. If they do Dick's and just completely ignore the Batfam (also if they do Rocket's and ignore the fact she has a son and fiance/husband probably at this point) it will just be such a let down.

Nightwing's arc includes Markovia a thread:

Assuming from the HBO Max shots that were posted two/three weeks ago, his arc may include Markovia. Like we have 6 pictures and we have 3 arcs (Kaldur, Dick and Raquel).

Two of the photos are from Rocket arc for sure.

Two are from Kaldur arc (one with Garfield and M'gann, and other one with Kaldur, Orin and La'gaan).

So there's two shots left. One with propaganda billboard with King Brion welcoming metas and

second one with Artemis, Zatanna and Nightwing looking at some kind of lab footage. We know Orm (and maybe Arion too) is actually a clone and The Light might be behind it. Actually Nightwing's arc is next! So that could lead us to Markovia (maybe to Ultra-Humanite, because I don't think Dr. Jace can clone like she is more specialized in metas).

+ We have one more photo with Brion so it's confirmed that we're gonna focus for a bit on Markovia.

Maybe I'm wrong, but we'll see in two weeks (assuming that Kaldur's arc has 4 episodes) . I would love to see what is really going on in Markovia. I think it could be very interesting story. I just can't wait to see Brion's POV.

Everyone's talking about the time skip again so here's my math on it - I still stand by it 100%.

YJ: Phantoms possible timeskip

So during the Whelmed podcast recently, Greg let it slip that Artemis was 15 in s1, and will be 25 come s4. So I did some math, and it comes to a time skip of somewhere around 1 and a half years (16 months exactly so... I feel like it will be that because we know how much they love 16)

I also break down my math below

Season 1: 7/4/10-1/1/11 (time passed: 6 months)

s1-2 time skip: 1/1/11-1/1/16 (time passed: 5 years, 6 months)

Season 2: 1/1/16-7/4/16 (time passed: 6 years)

s2-s3: 7/4/16-7/28/18 (time passed: 8 years)

Season 3: 7/28/18-2/28/19 (time passed: 8 years, 8 months)

10 years - 8 years, 8 months = 1 year, 4 months aka 16 months.

I’ve been cackling about this for like five minutes now

You still can't change my mind
