Anyway, people with brain damage I love you. People who have had strokes I love you, especially if you're told you were "too young" to have one. People who acquired your brain damage by less common means such as infection, lack of oxygen at birth or degenerative disease, I love you. People with moderate and severe brain damage, I love you. People who lost their sight or hearing or ability to speak because of their brain damage, I love you. People who have paralysis from their brain damage, I love you. People with amnesia and severe cognitive issues from their brain damage, I love you. People with rare and unusual symptoms from their brain damage, I love you.

You are not a punchline, you haven't lost your humanity, your thoughts and opinions are as valuable as anyone else's. We deserve respect.

Hot take, but everyone should be taught the symptoms and signs of a stroke. This should be a mandatory lesson in school.

Anyone could have a stroke, at any time, including you, the person reading this! If you were having a stroke wouldn't you want someone to be able to quickly identify it and get you help before it got really bad? Brain damage is fucking serious, and yet it's the butt of so many jokes and ehat most people know about it is the "burnt toast smell" which can be caused by many things.

So, as someone who has forced my mother to let me do her annual stroke test assessment to make sure she still knoes the stroke signs and everything, here are some things you can do to try and determine if someone is having a stroke. (Yes I passed the test everytime I did it and my mother would watch it with me)

Has their face drooped? Ask them to smile wide and if one or both sides of their face are drooping, they may be having a stroke. Call 911 or whatever emergency services

After this, ask them if you can touch their arms and legs to see if they can feel it. If they do not say yes or some affirmative DO NOT TOUCH THEM. Consent isn't just for sex, and this person is most likely going through a very traumatic sscenario. If they say yes, have them close their eyes and tell you which body part and or side you are touching them on. Let the 911 operator know your findings, and if they say no move on to the next step.

Test their speech. Have them say "I want my mother/mama" Can they say "a cactus is prickly"? If their speech is slurred then this is a sign of a stroke. Tell the 911 operator how severe the slurring is.

Have them try to raise their arms and legs. Let the operator know if they can or cannot raise any of their limbs, or if they have any difficulty.

Finally, ask them what year it is, what day it is, who's the president, where they are, etc. If they answer any of these questions wrong (especially if it seems like a really random answer) let the operator know.

Hopefully this helps someone. And please, for the love of fuck, treat stroke patients and survivors and people with brain damage like normal fucking people. Don't baby them and shit, and treat then like how you'd treat anyone else.

given cass's canonical love of reality tv, I am absolutely certain that every year babs has to go into cbs's recruitment email and delete her survivor audition video

Hallucinations and delusions aren’t always funny and meme-able. You’re not always going to see Joe The Grocery Store man, or hear uplifting voices, or believe you’re sonic or something. It’s possible, but that’s not always the case.

A lot of hallucinations are scary. You can see scary things. You can hear violent and vile things - nothing is off limits for hallucinations, much like intrusive thoughts. They can be traumatizing.

Likewise with delusions. Common delusions include believing your brain has been hacked, that you’re a chosen one selected by a god, a prophet, or a God yourself, that you’re being controlled or hunted, that you’re possessed, and so on. These delusions can be scary and traumatizing.

Even small things like seeing insects crawl up you, or believing you’re contaminated somehow can be anxiety inducing.

While it’s true schizospec disorders and psychosis aren’t distressed for everyone, and you can have non-distressing hallucinations and delusions, we shouldn’t try to sanitize the disorder for other people. People with scary, vile, or violent hallucinations and delusions deserve respect like anyone else and should be included in activism.

bbc’s merlin should’ve had a time-travel episode where merlin is transported to an unspecified time in the past. (he changes his appearance to avoid upsetting the timelines.)

during the whole episode he bonds with Some Kid who despite not having magic has a lot of friends who do, and he loves and appreciates their abilities. and it’s pretty much a buddy comedy where merlin’s trying to find a way back home and his new little friend is following him like a duckling. the kid finds out about his magic and proceeds to be wayy too into it, becoming a tiny hype man. He introduces merlin to young gaius and merlin has a very emotional moment where he sees gaius, happy and in love in a way he has never seen him and he KNOWS it will not last due to the purge. and at the end of the episode obviously we find out the little kid was a young uther.

Goggomobil TL400 Transporter Van, 1956. Goggomobil was the small vehicle subsidiary of Hans Glas GmbH. All Goggomobil models were based on the same rear-engine/rear drive platform with 2-stroke twin cylinder engines. The van was built at the request of Deutsche Post (monochrome pic), who purchased over 2,000 Transporters between October 1957 and November 1965. BMW took over Glas in 1966 and all Goggomobil models were discontinued in 1969.
