Get that walking stick. I denied myself for so much pointless pain and now I have walking sticks and crutches and way less pain and loads more people helping me when I need help.

most of the posts in the tumblr disability support community are people asking for permission to use mobility aids. personally i understand the terror of "gettting in trouble" for literally nothing, thats a pretty normal trauma response to (gestures vaguely) all this, but you have to remember that once you start using a cane, you're going to be the one already holding a bludgeoning weapon every time someone is rude to you for the rest of your life

Yeah it's to stop the vampires

"Love/sex is what makes us human" Wrong. It's the obsession with rectangles. look around you and count the number of rectangles you see.

Haha Julian Bashir and I'm Irish we'll go from enemies to best buddies forever in a couple of seasons

HERE COME DAT BOI (SURROUND SOUND VERSION)

But here's the stomper

one of the culprits here in the public obliviousness about covid is that medical science has completely failed to integrate the fact that infections and injuries have permanent effects into wider culture. it has been documented and known for decades that narcolepsy follows viral and bacterial infections but most doctors wont mention this to you and many of them dont even know about it. every single time you get strep throat, an ear infection, the flu, food poisoning, a bonk on the head, major surgery, sepsis, or cold sores, you have a N% chance to develop permanent disability from it. the 'shit happens' principle of medical science has been seemingly purposefully erased from the public consciousness and im not entirely sure why. american litigiousness and the drug testing process maybe. getting food poisoning from someone not washing their hands before making your meal at a restaurant can not just kill you, but it can give you a permanent chronic illness like narcolepsy, chronic fatigue syndrome, gastroparesis, whatever. instead of this just being common knowledge we have this bizarre concept of diseases as being ineffable and irresistible but simply an inconvenience all good citizens must endure

The Star Trek computer lives in a utopian luxury hotel and sounds like a harried secretary.

The Babylon 5 computer lives in a burning omnicrisis and sounds like it's on its second horse tranquilliser.

Spin-1/2 sleeping position

It is not enough to get into a comfy sleeping position- one must go through several and spin like a rotisserie chicken to arrive at the position you started with.

Rewatching Babylon 5, G'Kar got to be happy for a second and I could feel the universe rearranging itself into a giant anvil above him.

My wife Dr X tells me that many people stop watching the series at that point, but I really feel that's missing the point. The poem at the start tells you this! People struggle and die for this nonsense and then they're gone and things just keep happening anyway!

Everybody's dead and you're telling me there's still 1/3 of the book left?

Should've stopped reading after Red Cliffs.

Anti-Stratfordian who thinks Shakespeare did write his plays but he was from somewhere else

Holmes and Watson as Time Lords who found what they wanted first time and kept it in every regeneration

"In all timelines In all possibilities Only you"

And Lucius wouldn't even think it's hypocritical, he wouldn't just think he's above such things, he'd be genuinely shocked anyone else DOESN'T think he's above such things, no matter how many times they don't.

They really do make him so bad in that book it’s great. He shames someone for being a kin-killer, and the guy is like “Seriously? Seriously? YOU killed one of our brothers FIVE MINUTES AGO man!”

Lucius must always be the biggest and most hypocritical piece of shit in the room. It's essential to his character

It is canon that Bashir saved O'Brien's marriage so hard they became best friends over it
