I'm so freaking tired of female beauty standards and the UTTER IDIOCY of people who have the audacity to leave comments under body positivity content that are along the lines of "omg this is disgusting, I could never... But you do you!" like it's a fucking compliment and not absolutely deranged. You're all fucking sick in the head, imposing artificial standards onto others with such viciousness, yet seemingly oblivious to the active harm you're doing.
Interestingly, I've seen the same thing happen in the barefoot shoes discourse, in regards to how natural feet look like. It's shocking how many people are there spamming vomit emojis and confidently saying they'd pick deformed feet over "disgusting" natural feet ????? After seeing that I have no words. If some people consciously deform their body parts because they deem the natural state this unbearably disgusting, there's no hope for accepting body hair. It's genuinely sickening.

One would think that being unemployed for months and not having to wake up with an alarm and therefore getting to sleep as much as a body needed each night would eventually even out to a nice, consistent schedule. Getting the 7-9 hours of sleep the body needs each night. Feeling sleepy at the same time, not racking up sleep debt and throwing everything out of whack with the debt-collection sleep that's 12 hours long.
But no.
Not for me at least.
Turns out if I consistently get enough sleep every night my body reaches a point every few months of "We've had too much sleep so now we'll have No Sleep for a week or so to balance things out."
I mean. I've always had the ADHD trouble with a sleep schedule. Natural night owl. Can't keep a consistent bed time. Can't fucking wake up without ten alarms drilling into my sleeling brain. Occasional insomnia. It is what it is.
But given that I've been able to long-term live on my own schedule now, I'm understanding that Sleepy is the body signal my ADHD brain is very good at ignoring.
Like. I used to hear stories from ADHD folks going "omg i haven't eaten/drank all day, i didn't even notice i was hungry/thirsty." And think "couldn't be me. I'll interrupt anything for a snack or a drink of water." And then i have insomnia and have to be somewhere on a schedule and get like 3 hours of sleep and can just make a decision that I'm not tired actually and power through the next 16 hours of an active day with one cup of coffee as my caffeine for the day, never feel tempted for a nap, and still not feel sleepy at all when it's time for bed again.
So yeah. ADHD super power, resistant to Sleep Attacks 😂
