Positive Effects of the Skydive on the Brain

skydiver is an exciting and intense activity that involves jumping from an airplane and free-falling before deploying a parachute. While the primary attraction for many people is the adrenaline rush and thrill of the experience, there can also be potential positive effects on the brain. Here are some details on how skydiving can positively impact the brain.

[A fierce combatant with unrelenting claws and a better jump than most. With rage in your heart, yours is a path is lined with constant blood and wrath.]

[Little Gods and Passing Beasts AU, aka roleswapped rain world! ;; more under the cut]

scug Pebbles in Artificer's campaign!! as is only right. they have rage-to-rage communication no matter the world lmao.

so yeah pebbles with a hella grudge. a little bit of a twist though, in this campaign you are not targeting scavengers, but vultures. vultures in the Inquirer, Hearth, Skydiver, and Exiled campaigns are much more common compared to Drifter, Surveyor, and Martyr's campaigns. id imagine theyre still limited to certain areas and maybe even regions - so for example, no vultures in the shaded citadel equivalent, but in areas where they can be encountered, there would be very very many of them and an extremely high likelihood of encounter and death. to keep things balanced, however, the hp of regular vultures and king vultures are lowered, though not by that much only to like 50 or 75% of their actual HP. to fight, Exiled has a maul like Artificer but better and a double jump ability similar to Arti but without the actual bomb part. they also have the boosted spear damage like Arti and Hunter. i am also very tempted to give them Gourmand's drop slam thing just for funsies but thats only a maybe right now. in the Exiled campaign, it starts like Artificers in getting a citizen ID drone, and starts picking up when you get to the metropolis equivalent ive been calling Lofty Roost. after exploring for a bit you may find the tallest building, the highest perch, and encounter the King Miros Vulture (>20 HP, essentially a miros vulture w the harpoons, slightly faster land walk speed, and a cool unique vulture mask).

the Exiled was once a young, arrogant and slightly callous little scuppy. upon reaching hunting age, the Not Yet Exiled decided to be a little... risky. decided to hunt a vulture, a common threat in the colony's territory, all by themself. and they succeeded. at the time, the Not Yet Exiled was the only one injured, the only one who got close enough to the successfully hunted vulture to get a scar in their eye. when the rest of the hunting party drew close however, is when things started going wrong. the King Miros Vulture was in the area. everyone was too occupied, too distracted to see it before it swooped down and struck. the Hearth, kindest and loved by the colony, got snapped up. thankfully it was a fairly large hunting party, so no one died. though quite a lot were injured, the Hearth had the worst injury and that was only because every scug was caught off guard. however, it was still a hunting party. sure the colony can forage and they do have a stockpile of food, but thats a big blow to food acquirement, and the Hearth, who was only there because it was their little sibling's first hunt, was injured to the point it would take several cycles for them to recover - if they will at all. so. the colony leaders decided to exile the young scug. this was their first hunt. their skill assessment, to see if they are fit to hunt at all - and they went out on their own and decided to hunt one of the biggest threats in the area. sure, it was successful, and if they did manage to bring back the vulture with no one else hurt the colony leaders might have even considered giving the young scug a reward in the name of sharpening their already exceptional hunting skills - but they went out on their own when slugcats are supposed to hunt together, to make sure everyone comes home. willful endangerment of an entire party like that,, they can't let it slide. so the Exile was exiled. given instructions of a territory far enough away where the hunting is good and told they are never able to go home. it angered them. it was a successful hunt! they took down a vulture! sure a couple scugs were injured but it wasnt their fault! they dont know if their sibling is alive oh stars what have they done.

after quite a lot of cycles living alone, stewing in anger and guilt and hunting down almost exclusively vultures, they decide to move. they make their way,,, somewhere. and find an odd device that starts following them around. after more wandering they eventually find an iterator named Explosive Redamancy, fallen but functional and calling them her citizen? sure. more importantly she gives them information on where the King Miros Vulture is! Revenge Will Be Theirs!!! revenge will not bring Hearth back. will not let them back in their colony. is it even worth it? it has to be. what else could they do?

GEM: Another night, another date, another goodbye kiss getting out of hand.

Gem didn’t want to leave, though. It got harder and harder, every time. Whenever he wasn’t around Snow, it felt like something was missing. It felt like he was haunted. He didn’t know how people did this normally. If the feeling ever went away. He didn’t know if he wanted it to. Even when it drove him to distraction. Even when it made him feel like he was falling off a cliff, waiting for the impact at the bottom, only to continue that swooping sensation–so much that it made him dizzy.

The only time he felt like he was on solid ground was when Snow was in his arms.

Though, that wasn’t right either, because she made him just as dizzy as when he wasn’t around her. 

The smell of her perfume, the sound of her sighs, the way she grabbed at his hair. All these things made him just as dizzy. Though, when he fell into her, it didn’t feel quite so scary. Not anymore. Now, it just made him eager, like skydiving or rock climbing. His fingers eager as they squeezed at her ass, gathering the fabric of her skirt. His tongue eager as it explored her mouth. His whole body alive as he pressed her against the wall of the Hauntley Inn. 

Until, inevitably, the eagerness overtook anything else and Gem lost control—

“Fuck,” he cursed as he stumbled away, shaking his hands out at his sides. The uncomfortable, stiff feeling of hitting the ground becoming an unpleasantly familiar sensation. He ran a burning hand through his hair, trying to avoid the way that, even in the dark, Snow’s lips were still swollen, and shiny, and kissable. Even though the fire always brought him smashing to the ground, it didn’t make the desire disappear. Unfortunately. 

“Sorry,” he panted out, breathing in deep through his nose to control his breathing–and his fire as he clenched his fist and smothered the flame.

Chilean wingsuit flyer Sebastian Alvarez made history on Thursday after leaping from a Bell 212 helicopter 3,657 metres (12,000 feet) above Hudayriyat Island in Abu Dhabi, before dropping into a wave in the most spectacular style. With a modified surfboard attached to his feet, the 390 year-old former military pilot 'skysurfed' down from the helicopter, swooping in by parachute before cutting his 'chute to land on a 2.3 metre (7.5ft) wave in the world’s newest and largest wave facility, Surf Abu Dhabi. A world-renowned BASE jumper and Outdoor Skydiver, Alvarez has successfully completed thousands of similar jumps. But on this occasion, he achieved a world first. Over two years in the making, this project was a high-level combination of three unique disciplines - skysurfing, swooping, and surfing. The preparation and the training required was not just focused on one sport, but all three, achieved in partnership with Experience Abu Dhabi, the destination brand of the Department of Culture and Tourism – Abu Dhabi (DCT Abu Dhabi). The Surf Abu Dhabi facility will host its first professional surfing competition, the Abu Dhabi Longboard Classic, at the end of September - it will be the third stop on the World Surf League (WSL) 2024 Longboard Tour. Surf Abu Dhabi will also host a WSL Championship Tour event in 2025.

“Ghenn and his crew have them loaded onto the drop ships following us as we take out targeted turrets and defenses in one fell swoop” Vigos did create something similar to a vehicle capsule from the nanite technology along his chest area for Bishop to ride in.

Nel had already shifted and was ready to depart. When everyone was ready, Ghenn gave the hand signals to have the ramp of the hanger lowered down. And part of the floor moved under the rest of hanger. They’d go first since not many expected just the two of them capable of causing a massive amount of destruction on their own.

“Ever go skydiving in your life, Agent?” Vigos laughed some as Nel went first and he soon after in the leap off the ramp.

“Don’t think of it as a gateway, but more of an inter-dimensional vacuum for future rift tears to redirect them from universe to ours, and can deal with the threats in our universe, plus keeping either reality from bleeding into the other”

Once through and in the hanger, Vigos could spread out the four wings stretching them first before shifting forms, taking up a good portion of the hanger. Once shifted, a loud exhale was let out, but his voice still sounded as if standing next to Bishop through the earpiece. “The best way of traveling”

So! In the course of my day, @neivaloz messaged me this:

For context, here’s the first message she sent based off how I pointed out I’m so eternally thankful SkSw Link does not take fall damage because oh boy I fall everywhere:

The word “splat” specifically, inspired me deeply:

And what follows is the consequence of said inspiration. Here you go @neivaloz I hope you like it!

The wonders of onomatopoeia: Splat Edition

Link was not expecting Zelda to push him off. Certainly not so soon after shoving him off the platform anyway. What was this? Was it just a fun pastime for her? Did she actively enjoy watching him grapple with rapidly approaching distances whilst he completely stretched his limbs in opposing directions trying to slow down?

But he was distracted by what she did just before pushing him off this time. He was not sure what he was expecting, exactly, with all the teasing she’d just done. Maybe a kiss? His face flamed. No no, he had bigger problems than that right now. Because the ground was reaching him at an alarming rate. Link had never had a sailcloth before, and he’d never used one. Plus he didn’t want it to lose the scent it had. Which was real stupid considering the situation with the ground and all. Plus Zelda wanted him to land in the damn circle but she’d shoved him off towards the right and HE HADN’T DONE THIS BEFORE AND-

After a few brief flailings in the air, where he ended up veering more off course than on, he gave up and was just going to pull out the sailcloth she’d given him- but the scent and in all his deliberation, he failed.

He landed with a splat, like an insect against the window, on the cold floor just outside the circle.

He really would have preferred the kiss.

Travel Insurance Stress Free Adventures

Travel Insurance Stress Free Adventures: Discover the essential guide to travel insurance and why it's your best travel buddy. Learn how to choose the right policy, understand coverage, and travel with peace of mind. Travel Insurance Holidays

1. Introduction: Why Travel Insurance is the Unsung Hero of Trips

Picture this: You're sipping a coconut drink on a sun-kissed beach, and suddenly, your phone buzzes with an alert—your flight home is canceled! Panic? Nah, because you’ve got travel insurance, your ultimate travel buddy. Let’s dive into why this unsung hero should be your travel companion. Travel insurance, often overlooked, is like the invisible superhero of your vacation. It swoops in to save the day when things go awry. From lost luggage to unexpected medical emergencies, travel insurance ensures you’re not left high and dry. It's the safety net every traveler needs. One might wonder, "Is travel insurance really necessary?" Well, unless you have a crystal ball predicting your trip's twists and turns, it’s best to be prepared. Whether you're a frequent flyer or an occasional adventurer, having a robust travel insurance policy is a no-brainer.

2. What Exactly is Travel Insurance?

Before we embark on this journey, let’s clear the air on what travel insurance actually is. Think of it as a protective shield that guards against unforeseen circumstances during your trip. It covers a variety of mishaps, ensuring peace of mind. Travel Insurance Stress Free Adventures! Travel insurance typically includes coverage for trip cancellations, medical emergencies, lost or delayed luggage, and sometimes even adventure sports. It’s like packing an extra suitcase full of security. So, while you’re busy planning your sightseeing itinerary, travel insurance is busy planning your safety itinerary. But wait! There’s more. Travel insurance isn't a one-size-fits-all deal. Policies vary, offering different levels of coverage based on your needs. It’s crucial to read the fine print (yes, even the parts in microscopic font) to understand what you’re signing up for.

3. Types of Travel Insurance: Which One Suits Your Adventure?

Just like you won't wear a parka to the beach, you shouldn't pick just any travel insurance for your trip. Different adventures call for different types of coverage. So, let’s explore the colorful world of travel insurance types. First up, we have the trusty single-trip insurance. This is perfect for those once-in-a-blue-moon vacations. It covers you for that specific trip and is ideal if you’re not a regular globetrotter. Think of it as a one-time investment for peace of mind. Next, meet the annual multi-trip insurance. If you’re a frequent flyer, this one’s for you. It covers multiple trips throughout the year, saving you the hassle of purchasing a new policy every time you jet off. It’s like having a travel insurance membership card. Lastly, we have specialized travel insurance. Whether you’re planning a skiing adventure or a safari in the wild, there’s a policy tailor-made for your unique plans. These policies offer coverage for specific activities, ensuring you’re protected no matter how adventurous you get.

4. The Hilarious Consequences of Skipping Travel Insurance

Let’s face it; traveling without insurance is like skydiving without a parachute—risky and not advised. So, what happens if you decide to skip it? Let’s take a humorous look at the potential pitfalls. Picture this: You arrive at your dream destination, only to find your luggage has embarked on its own separate vacation. Without travel insurance, you're left buying overpriced essentials and sporting the same outfit for days. Not exactly the fashion statement you had in mind. Or imagine falling ill after sampling exotic street food. Without insurance, you’re faced with hefty medical bills that could rival the cost of your entire trip. Suddenly, that extra expense on insurance seems like a bargain. Travel Insurance Stress Free Adventures And let’s not forget the classic canceled flight scenario. Without insurance, you’re left to navigate the chaos of rebooking and additional expenses solo. It’s enough to make you wish you had a time machine to go back and purchase that policy.

5. How to Choose the Right Travel Insurance: A Step-by-Step Guide

Choosing travel insurance can feel like navigating a maze, but fear not! We’ve got your back with a step-by-step guide to help you select the perfect policy for your journey. Step one: Assess your travel needs. Are you going on a short city break or a month-long backpacking adventure? Different trips have different risks, so tailor your insurance to suit your travel plans. Step two: Compare policies. Just like you compare prices for flights and hotels, do the same with insurance. Look for policies that offer comprehensive coverage and compare their benefits. Remember, the cheapest option might not always be the best. Step three: Read the fine print. Yes, it’s boring, but it’s essential. Make sure you understand what’s covered and what isn’t. Pay attention to exclusions, as these can vary significantly between policies. 6. Understanding Coverage: What’s Included in Your Policy? So, you’ve picked a policy, but what exactly does it cover? Understanding your coverage is key to ensuring you’re adequately protected on your travels. Most travel insurance policies cover trip cancellations. This means if you need to cancel your trip due to unforeseen circumstances, you’ll be reimbursed for non-refundable expenses. It’s like having a safety net for your travel plans. Medical emergencies are another crucial component. Whether it’s a minor illness or a major accident, travel insurance ensures you receive necessary medical attention without breaking the bank. Think of it as having a global health card. Lost or delayed luggage is also typically covered. So, if your bags decide to take a detour, you won’t be left without your essentials. It’s like having a personal delivery service for your belongings. 7. Common Myths About Travel Insurance: Debunking the Misconceptions Travel insurance is surrounded by myths that can deter travelers from purchasing it. Let’s debunk these misconceptions and set the record straight. Myth #1: “I’m healthy, so I don’t need travel insurance.” While good health is a blessing, accidents and illnesses can happen to anyone. Travel insurance covers more than just health, including cancellations and lost luggage. Myth #2: “It’s too expensive.” The cost of travel insurance is a fraction of your trip expenses. Consider it an investment in peace of mind. And remember, the cost of being uninsured can be far higher if something goes wrong. Myth #3: “It’s only for adventurous trips.” Travel insurance isn’t just for thrill-seekers. Even a relaxed beach holiday can have unexpected hiccups, and travel insurance ensures you’re covered no matter your travel style. 8. Making a Claim: Navigating the Process with Ease Let’s talk about the process of making a claim, because nobody wants to be left in the dark when it comes to insurance. Here’s how to navigate it with ease. First, ensure you keep all relevant documents and receipts. Whether it’s medical bills or proof of cancellation, having these on hand will streamline your claim process. It’s like creating a paper trail for your insurance fairy. Next, contact your insurer as soon as possible. Most companies have a time limit for filing claims, so don’t delay. Be clear and concise about what happened, and provide all necessary documentation. Finally, follow up on your claim. Insurance companies handle numerous claims, so a gentle nudge ensures yours isn’t lost in the shuffle. Persistence pays off, and before you know it, your claim will be processed. 9. Travel Insurance in the Age of COVID-19: What You Need to Know The COVID-19 pandemic has reshaped the travel landscape, and travel insurance is no exception. Here’s what you need to know about securing insurance in this new era. Many insurers now offer COVID-19 coverage, which includes trip cancellations due to the virus, medical expenses if you contract COVID-19 during your trip, and additional costs for quarantine. It’s like having a custom-tailored policy for pandemic travel. Check travel advisories before purchasing insurance. Some policies may not cover destinations with government travel warnings, so ensure your destination is covered. It’s like doing a background check on your travel buddy. Flexibility is key. Look for policies that offer flexible cancellation options. With the ever-changing travel restrictions, having a policy that adapts to these changes is invaluable. It’s like having a flexible friend who rolls with the punches. 10. Conclusion: Pack Your Bags and Your Travel Insurance! As we conclude our journey through the world of travel insurance, one thing is clear: it’s an essential travel companion. From preventing financial setbacks to ensuring your safety, travel insurance is the unsung hero of your adventures. So, as you plan your next trip, remember to pack your sense of adventure, your camera for those Instagram-worthy shots, and of course, your travel insurance. With these in tow, you’re set for a journey full of fun, free from worry. In the end, travel insurance is more than just a policy; it’s peace of mind wrapped in a safety net.
