‘But I am very poorly today & very stupid & hate everyone & everything’
- Charles Darwin. Letter to Charles Lyell, 1 October 1861
#Darwin#quotes#famous quotes#Charles Darwin#always remember that everyone has bad days sometimes#even the people who look like they are productive beyond human capacity#sometimes it’s important to just acknowledge it and see that there are good things to come#but right now is just shit#anyway I have a flu or something#and right now I hate everyone and everything#and my immune system most of all#and the parents who send their sick and contagious kids to daycare#and the evolution of viruses#who tbh have absolutely no business to be wreaking such havoc on the more organised domains of life#about me#sorry to be a downer#your usual frog-related content will resume after a brief intermission#I realise that posting quotes is super cringe#sorry about that#at least some of you probably haven’t seen this quote before#so you’ve learned something today#and I’ve gotten to vent#win-win?

I need everyone to know that speedsters are allergic to nanobots.
No, seriously. They're allergic to nanobots.
Speedsters have absolutely insane metabolisms, which means that they have an absolutely insane immune system. They don't get sick. Ever. Their immune system works at warp speed and takes out germs the second they enter their body. Call germs 'the Rogues' because they're getting tackled by super speedy blurs before they can even think about causing issues.
Okay, so they have a great immune system and don't get sick ever. What does this have to do with nanobots?
Great question! When nanobots are injected into a speedster's body their immune system sees them as a threat. Only problem? It doesn't matter how fast or efficient their immune system is, their body can't destroy a bunch of tiny metal robots.
Because their bodies can't fight off the nanobots they start to display typical cold/flu symptoms instead. Vomiting, fever, runny nose, coughing, being tired, ect. The nanobots aren't causing this reaction. Their own immune system causes this reaction. The fever is the bodies attempt to kill off the 'germs'. The vomiting, runny nose and coughing is the body's attempt to expel the 'germs'. They feel tired because their body is putting everything into fighting off the 'infection'.
In a normal person the nanobots wouldn't even be an issue because they'd be able to avoid detection. They can't avoid detection in a speedster body because their immune systems are dialled up to 500 out of 10.
As a result you get instances like this:
(Inertia had injected Bart with nanobots and Bart had a reaction)
Just an FYI for people because this is extremely fun and versatile information. Especially because none of the speedsters are really aware of this and it doesn't kick in right away. I could totally see a situation where a mission requires nanobot injections and mid mission the speedster goes down out of nowhere. It's also great if you want to do a stereotypical sick fic or something and want to get around that pesky speedster immunity.
Anyway, it's fun information so I thought I'd share
#anyone watch that episode of TT where all the titans are injected with nanobots that'll kill them if robin doesn't work with slade?#and everyone is all 'WHY HAS ROBIN BETRAYED US?!?'#anyway im just saying that if Wally was there he would be on the ground delirious and vomiting#which#i don't know if it makes the situation better because the team would be looking into why hes sick#or if it makes it worse because wallys out of commission#but its 10/10 either way#i just want a yj mission where tims like 'hey we are going to space so here are gps nanobots'#and then like three hours later Bart is burning up delirious and vomiting#and tim (who knows that speedsters ONLY show symptoms of sickness if they have the plague or have been poisoned or something) FREAKS OUT#throws him into quarantine. stops the mission. gets an emergency surgery room ready. has doctors on the line.#Kon goes into quarantine with him cause hes 'AN ALIEN AND CAN'T GET SICK FUCK YOU TIM'#meanwhile hes like#completely fine#he just has flu symptoms#dc#dc comics#the flash#impulse#kid flash#wally west#bart allen#barry allen#speedsters

I had a bit of an epiphany...
A LOT of my OC sets (boyfs) match quite well with uh... the Ishimondo set. Ive got at least three more pairings that look so similar to Ishimondo its really funny.
The two guys are two of my OCs from story that will probably never come to light. (left- Elijah Vogel, right- Adler Eadon Hawke)
Theres plenty more examples. If ya'll'd care ta see em
#longsheepart#digital art#danganronpa fanart#danganronpa trigger happy havoc#danganronpa#kiyotaka ishimaru#ishimondo#mondo owada#art#OC art#OCs#my ocs#my oc art#original characters#I FINALLY finished something it has been such a bad month in terms of creativity#I went to con and con was fun but a lot#then i got con flu so bad afterwards its been terrible#I've heard word from some ppl I went with that its tested as covid? But Im not gonna check bc I dont need to.#I'd have to get over it sans medicine anyways being a virus#So idc about a test. Im about over it anyways now. Just a bit of a cough and some congestion

one thing abt being disabled/chronically ill that some people don’t get is that sometimes body maintenance that ensures you have the absolute minimum amount of function can also be something that takes away a lot of control and autonomy. you can argue till the cows come home that making those decisions to try and help yourself (or realistically to try to make sure things aren’t worse than they already are) is something that exhibits control and autonomy and stuff, but they can be so limiting in practice because they’re things that take up so much time but have to be done to do anything else
#i have to sleep a lot. i’m at the point where functioning requires 8 hours of sleep if not more#I should probably be getting 10+ but i’m a student and i work so 8 is the minimum. but then also getting ready for bed is a whole process s#the whole thing can take 10-12 hours depending how much im sleeping. just to make sure i can do anything#that is time in my day i cannot use for anything else. it’s not ‘oh but i can push through it’ because i can’t without spending the next da#lightheaded and nauseous and vaguely dizzy and with such intense brain fog I can’t think with my fatigue so bad i genuinely don’t know how#get myself to work a lot of days. my abled peers don’t have to deal with this at all. they have unlimited study time if they want to#and yeah it is a choice i’m making that’s true i could just not do. except i would lose my job and fail out of college because i would not#be able to get to classes or do my homework or think. but being told ‘but you are making choices about your life’ when i have lost so much#of what i used to be able to do because i am spiralling down and continuing to get worse is so.#literally last year i would wake up at 6:30 and then go to school till 3 and then go to my internship until 10 and get home at 11 and be in#bed anywhere from midnight to two in the morning and then wake up the next day and do it all again. i graduated with a 3.9 gpa and made it#into my top college while dealing with my cancer symptoms and then the two surgeries about it#but now i lose half my day to just making sure i can get out of bed. i can’t go anywhere because my body is physically too exhausted#any extra time goes into doing homework or occasionally time to myself#not decimating my health by doing minimum body care responsibilities isn’t freeing. occasionally i have a good day which is freeing but tha#usually goes into just. other things outside class or work or eating. I don’t go do something for myself or go do something fun on good day#because I still can’t. good days just mean i don’t want to lie down on the pavement when i’m going somewhere#I just. I don’t magically have control over my life because i try to get enough sleep. i lose half my day to doing that and ultimately it’s#just a bodily function that would have to happen anyway#this is a vent post im just having a really hard time right now because it feels like im in exponential decline. it was nowhere near this#bad last semester. my grades are tanking and i have no free time because anything outside of sleep is either work or school#vent tw#yall can rb this just ignore my tags completely#disability#chronically ill#i keep trying to explain to people how pots works because that’s all logical but there’s no way to explain what it’s doing to my body or ho#i feel all the time. the last time i felt this bad was when i had a bad flu or immediately after surgeries because i don’t react well to#anesthesia and always come out of them feeling like shit. and now i just feel like this all the time and it’s only getting worse#I can’t even stay up late anymore because my body feels like it isn’t counting the sleep even if I get 8 hours#I can deal if I have a free day the day after but that just leaves Friday and Saturday nights and I usually still have to do homework

Some people are just
#the only reason he’s ‘allowed’ to take a break is bc he’s so sick he either doesn’t have a voice or physically can’t even move#bc you know if he could still perform he would’ve been on that stage like he was at the latest la show#he was already sick and still had a show#and if people cared about him and not about the money they’ll be getting they would’ve cancelled the rest of the residencies#and given him the rest of the year to rest#he’s not going to get over a flu on a couple of days#the reason he even got it in the first place was most likely bc his immune system is fucked from exhaustion#he’s been working non stop for years#these residencies was the most unnecessary thing ever#literally everyone could see this coming and I’m so mad they still let it happen and instead of giving him time to actually rest#they’re basically saying ‘patch yourself up and go back on stage like the circus monkey that you are oh#and don’t forget you’re still gonna have to do the cancelled shows later bc we can’t let the azoff’s venue lose money#anyway💆🏼♀️💆🏼♀️💆🏼♀️#I hope he gets better soon and I hope someone finally helps him realize he’s not a product but a human being who doesn’t have to apologize#3 times for something that’s out of his control#hope that therapist clears her schedule from going to his shows🙃🙃🙃

I am so sorry for my absence- I know I’ve said it a thousand times so do with my apologies what you will but I’m dead ass watching the movie again right now (for the millionth time ofc) and I’m gonna dabble around where I left off at before I fell ill in my drafts bc i fucking miss Arthur and all of you so very much.
if we have something together and u want to drop and start something new bc it’s been an eternity, please let me know and I can write up something new asap!
#✦✧My life is nothing but a comedy✧✦ ➝ ( ooc )#i genuinely did not mean to take this long of a break#but like i get really sick- better for a few days then get really sick with something else#and it's not just me but my hubby and son too#like i currently have some sort of virus doctors couldn't say exactly what#along with strep throat#flu & rona tests were negative#but i was practically bed ridden the last two days#and the days before that was taking care of my VERY sick husband#like y'all it's been such a bad month#but anyways YEAH IM GOING TO WRITE AND THREADS WILL BE SCHEDULED TO START POSTING TOMORROW#it's happening frfr

it's a good thing I'm ace because I could never suck a dick. I just got strep-tested and gagged so hard I had a coughing fit for a solid 15+ seconds
#pretty sure i have strep. not sure it'll turn up.#i hate strep tests sm you don't even understand#one time the dentist was doing something in my mouth and i gagged and accidentally bit his hand#anyways i think i have the flu and strep but only time will tell#(time being however long it takes for the nurse to come back with the rapid test results)#update: supposedly I'm negative for strep and it's just the flu#not sure i believe it though with how shitty that sample must have been

ughhhh my coworker who i have to sit stupidly close to just tested positive. and he literally messaged me this morning hemming and hawing about coming in, but he didn't want to waste his pto. he shouldve fuckin stayed home. and the county literally just lifted the mask mandate for doctors offices on monday afternoon. if i get sick i'm gonna be so fuckin pissed
#i've gotten four shots so far and i double mask at work so hooooopefully i'll be okay.#personal#i'm just so tired of this#i mean like i know everyone else is too blah blah blah#but like.... my disabilities make it hard enough already#i don't know what will happen if my precarious balance gets thrown off by something new#every time i think about being afraid of getting sick i just think of how#at the very very start of the pandemic my dad was so fucking paranoid#like 'quit your job and make sure you have 2months worth of food' paranoid#but then a few months later once i'd been in lock down for a while#and i told him about how someone i followed here was so very very afraid#he acted like i was insane#that being afraid to get sick was so irrational to the point my mental health was what was endangering me#and he's been able bodied his whole life (and is only just starting to get to the point where his body can't kee up anymore)#and he's never believed me about my disabilities anyway....#and i think of how i had swine flu at 16 and how it just fucked me up for so long....#and set in motion a cascade of so many other things that took more than half a decade to recover from...#i know things are different now but i don't want to go through that again#(also i'm uh... i'm anticipating his letter soon and i'm trying very hard to remind myself of the pain he caused me#so that when that letter comes i don't take it so black and white. i need to remember the gray)

#i like that he's got first name privileges now. he's a close friend#just kidding.#anyway i will be thinking about this for the rest of my life#the tiny tony tinymoments where you can see a human being in there. there is a person that can be touched by kindness#but in the end it’s not enough. what would be enough?#barry#like im sorry if u think this show isnt gonna have an insanely pessimistic ending. dark dark.#also the misfit being like They told me i killed my father but i didnt he died of the flu. Was he LYING????? does he not even remember.#what if barry has something that intense memory holed. what DID happen to barry’s parents anyway.#bill buddy you gotta answer me.

Oh nooooo that's even worse!! I hate when you're all cozy and ready to do the sleep and then something jarring happens and you're suddenly wide awake again. I hope you woke up this morning with your eye okay!! Sending lots of wellness vibes!
I hope your Friday treated you well (and that your face is okay) and that you have a wonderful weekend!
❤️Ally
#allylikethecat#ask ally#anon ask#keep it kind#im not sure why but literally any time i have some kind face thing it ends up bruising#like i dont have any medical condition that makes me bruise more im just really dumb#the worst one was i got a flu shot had an allergic reaction to it#and i stopped by my grandmas house to show her my hives and be like should i do something about this#and i ended up fainting#smashing my face on her tile floor#i ended up in the ER#i gave myself a concussion and a black eye because i had been wearing my glasses#that was fun to explain to my boss#and also my trainer she was like YOU GOT A CONCUSSION GETTING A FLU SHOT?!#anyway i hope that didnt happen to you

using this blessed image like a piece of cheese in a rat trap to try and coax my talestuals (tales mutuals) into reading loveless. alternatively using this image to coax my loveletuals (loveless mutuals) to play tales
#tales is much less like a rat trap than loveless. altho it has one of the most obliviously heterosexual fandoms i've ever been in.#you guys would probably like abyss or graces the most. maybe symphonia#i recommend playing symphonia as your first if you do decide to play bc the gameplay is refined with each entry and going back gameplay#if you aren't used to it can be kind of a pain#you guys also might like vesperia but mostly for yuri lowell since that seems to be ritsuka's favourite character lmao#i just know yun kouga is a fl/uri..............#me tho i'm a yu/rav..........#and a fure/y/urav....................#flu/ri is okay but something about it gives like 95% of the shippers shit idiot brain fungus#abyss's combat is kind of slow but it's a very good story and i know we love a hateable at first protag here on soubiapologist.tumblr.com#graces is like. if you like gay people being catholic about their gay denial and also imo the peak of series gameplay#the combat is so fun play hubert and thank me later#it will make you really mad though#because well. it is catholic. i'm still waiting for the divorce and [redacted] losing his fucking mind to the horrors of municipal-#government and killing everyone and having to be stopped in the epic sequel or whatever that's never happening#usually tales has really good writing for its female characters but the female cast of graces is probably the series's weakest female cast#sophie is great and fourier is also great#but the rest are just eugh or wasted potential or forgettable#if you like loveless you will like richard windor (graces). or at the very least he will make you feel like an insane person#ANYWAY. :)#which is a bummer
