Do not aggressively weed a garden that is full of weeds when you are under hydrated and have POTS. It is a bad idea.

Today I finally used a mobility aid other than my braces while out. I never fully understood the statement that if you think you might need a mobility aid you probably do. I get it now. I felt so much more stable with using just one of my crutches. And I am less fatigued than I normally would be. I wish I had started sooner.

I shouldn't have to disclose my disability for people to be kind to me actually

All I want is a place in the house where I can paint. Or draw with my sketch book in my lap. I didn’t anticipate losing my desk would lead to such a pain.

Minnesota Representative, Hortman and her husband were killed in what is believed to be a targeted act of political violence last night and Senator Hoffman and his wife weren shot multiple times by a man impersonating law enforcement. As of this time Hoffman and his wife are out of surgery and alive.

There’s a live statement ongoing.

If you’re local to these affected areas and someone claiming to be police come to your door, it is advisable to dial 911 and confirm with dispatch that they are legitimate officers and not the impersonator.

I don’t know if it’s still happening but Brooklyn police were reported to be moving in pairs to avoid being confused for the impersonator who is as far as we are aware, alone.

Please, please, please if you are going to the protests across Minnesota today, be extra careful of anyone in uniform. Cops are already not our friends, but this is an added layer of unpredictable violence.

Sometimes I feel we may need to bring back the guillotine. But only for very specific individual cases.

I have PMDD and it put me in a psych ward 3 times in 5 months when I was in high school. Birth control literally saved my life.

"birth control is evil and fucks up your hormones and is making women depressed" is incredibly funny to hear when you have PMDD. girl in my ~natural divine feminine state~ i wanna kill myself every 4 weeks

I don't see many posts about chronic GI issues, so here are some ways GI issues can be disabling:

- Chronic pain, which can be severe and/or debilitating

- Missing important things due to being in the bathroom

- Needing to make frequent bathroom trips

- Not being able to go places that don't have a bathroom you can use

- Problems eating due to nausea, reflux, etc.

- Having a restricted diet

- Fatigue

- Potentially serious complications depending on the condition

- And more!

It can be difficult to talk about these things due to embarrassment surrounding GI problems but if you deal with any of these things know your struggles are valid and you deserve proper treatment.
