Been playing through Undertale for the first time on Switch recently and since it’s also spook month I had the idea for this dumb little parody animation of one of my favourite videos (x). Credit to the original artist, @brakken! Also up on Youtube.

Old-timey problems require old-timey solutions

one of the [many] reasons autism goes undiagnosed is because autism is genetic and families are always more likely to notice traits that stand out. little Sam doesn’t like broccoli and flinches at loud noises and cries if you make him wear jeans but so does his dad and so does his dad’s mom, so obviously it can’t be that strange, right? nothing to worry about. and Karen can’t sit in quiet places and she fidgets constantly with her skin and she speaks so fast no one can understand her, just like her aunt and her mom, so it’s not a big deal, obviously. if you’re thinking about getting a diagnosis but keep telling yourself it’s ‘normal’ - it really isn’t, that may well just be your family.

She lost?! 

This was not the update I wanted on this case.

Here’s another article, from back when it first happened:

“In an effort to show the psychiatric staff that she did not require psychiatric hospitalization and that she did not belong there, Ms. Brock truthfully explained that she was a banker and that her Twitter account was followed by President Obama. The staff interpreted these statements as an indication that Ms. Brock was suffering from delusions. Part of her treatment involved being forced to “admit” that her career was a fabrication and that she had never interacted on Twitter with the President.“

Kamilah Brock spent 8 days in a NY mental health facility because she owned a BMW 

Kamilah Brock, a former New York banker, has filled a suit against the city after she was detained for eight days in a mental health facility against her will. Brock says she was committed after trying to pick up her BMW, which skeptical police did not believe she owned. To add insult to injury, Brock was then charged a hefty sum by the hospital.

coworker who sits next to me: [starts singing half-under his breath]

me internally: I should find some way to ask him, cordially and professionally, to stop that

me, inadvertently, in real life: [has started hissing while looking at him]

coworker: what’s up? You have a question?

me, aware that I have a weird tense grimacing expression and also unable to stop making the expression: no, uh –

me: [mental gears grind to a halt, including the brain module that was searching for diplomatic phrasing]

me: I want you to stop singing.

coworker: oh, okay!

It’s funny that we use skeletons as symbols of core human anatomy when our bones are just the scaffolding for something else.
