More reporting on the PACE trial

From this Pete Judo video

I learned about this researcher:

i've lost the ability to blockquote (as in i don't remember) so here's some salient info:

Trial By Error: Reporting on ME, ME/CFS, long Covid, and "Medically Unexplained Symptoms"

I am once again seeking funds to continue my work on ME, ME/CFS, and now long Covid. These tax-deductible donations to Berkeley will support my academic position as senior fellow in public health and journalism at the Center for Global Health for the second half of this year--July 1-December 31, 2024.

they should invent a waking up where you’re not in pain and agony

How you can tell tumblr ads aren't targeted

when i say i like hiking, i don’t mean “eight mile backpacking trip with special gear and an emergency beacon” sort of hiking, i mean a three mile loop to go look at pretty things and then a huge brunch after.

If people were too mean to you when you were growing up, a newborn animal will materialize inside your brain and it’s so so scared and shivering and it will stay there for years. Decades, even. And whenever you say something kind of weird but true to your heart the animal will tell you “Noo! You can’t say that! If you say that, everyone will hate you!”. The animal means well. It’s so so small and everything is so scary for them and it’s just trying to protect you. But listen to me. Listen to me. Whenever this happens, you can’t do what the animal says. You can’t. If you do, you’ll become as scared as the animal. You have to keep saying weird shit. You have to keep doing things the animal wouldn’t approve of. If you do enough things that scare the animal, maybe one day it’ll go to sleep.

its like you dont even want to sell your life to a corporation

This tattoo is very funny when you know that kerning is the fancy term for the space between letters. Very important in text design to get it right.

Reblog if you can hear this image I'm trying to see something

Reposting this because I need to materialize it somewhere.

I'm all for the movement of "if you're going to accept all autistics, that means all autistics. Even the weird ones" etc

But I much more fancy that we just accept weird people point blank. They don't need to share a diagnosis. They don't need to make themselves smaller just to fit into the world.

Cuz, as a late diagnosed autistic, my weird ass could have used just acceptance. Regardless of why I was weird.
