flag id: the leftmost quarter of the left flag has 4 stripes, which are golden yellow, sky blue, faded indigo, and dark blue. the second quarter has those stripes shifted down by half a stripe, with a small section of dark blue at the top. the third quarter has them shifted down again, making the top dark blue section a full stripe. the final quarter is shifted down again, with a small section of faded indigo at the top. the right flag is the same, but each shift down is a full stripe length rather than half of one. end id.
banner id: a 1500x150 teal banner with the words ‘please read my dni before interacting’ in large white text in the center. end id.
two versions of a non-24-hour sleep-wake disorder (n24swd/n24) flag for myself!
both flags use yellow and sky blue for being awake and purple and dark blue for being asleep, with both flags shifting those colors 'forward' several times to represent one's circadian rhythm being out of alignment with the typical 24-hour cycle.

The fact that most of the tags under n24 have nothing to do with the disorder and that there's only a handful of posts under every single tag for it sure FEELS like ableism even though it might not be. But I have the time to talk about it so I might as well spread visibility.
(Info under read more)
N24, Non-24, or Non-24 Sleep-Wake Disorder, is a circadian rhythm disorder where your body doesn't run on a (roughly) 24-hour cycle like most people/people without the disorder itself. For example, my days run roughly 18-19 hours instead of a typical 16. My sleep gets later and later and later. I've tried melatonin, tried resetting my sleep schedule by staying up for >24 hours until a "normal" time for bed, and tried keeping ambient noise on like music or nature sounds. I've tried blue light filters. My days are just 26-27 hours instead of a normal 24, though every person with N24 is different.
It's primarily diagnosed in Blind patients, since the cause among Blind people with the disorder seems to be that not being able to see the transition from day to night makes their bodies not produce the proper sleep hormones at the right time.
Among sighted people, the cause seems to be unknown (last time I checked; just one person with the disorder should not be your only source of information!) and, since N24 among sighted people is more rare and less lucrative, it's an orphan disorder. There's not much research into how to help us sighted people with N24 because treatment is often pricey or not an actual solution, or it is aimed directly towards helping Blind people with N24.
As far as I know, there's apparently an implantable device in development. The main suggestions I see are training via sun lamps and melatonin or just trying to get on sleeping pills by lying about insomnia. There is a pill that can be taken, but if you live in the US, it is extremely expensive. So, essentially, this orphan disorder is overlooked and misdiagnosed, and those of us with it have to hope that one of the coin-toss methods of treating N24 works.
N24, even on its own, can be a very disabling disorder. You're either too-sleep deprived to do the things during the day you need to or are busy being asleep because the human body needs rest at some point. Socialization gets very difficult when your circadian rhythm is nocturnal for a couple of weeks. It's an isolating experience. It also makes it harder for people to work and make themselves money. I don't even know if N24 is something that can apply to an application for disability, though given it's not well-known, I doubt it is.
I'm not used to making informative posts like this, so I don't know how to end it, but please do some research into N24 on your own time--I am by no means a medical professional and my anecdotal explanation may contain errors. I just want people to know we exist.

I love having a sleep disorder so rare that there are like 10 posts on it and no real fix for it because it usually occurs in blind people :D

holy shit theres few enough posts on tumblr dot com about non-24 that i can look through the non-24 tag and feasibly read every post in one sitting?
edit: it has been 10 minutes i have read all of them. there aren't any more. this is under both #non-24 and #non 24. i have probably talked about non 24 with random people online more times than people have posted about it on this website.

新型コロタン
コロナに罹りました。
概日リズム障害と体調不良の相性は最悪ですね。
昼間に寝ないことは、リズムを維持する為には欠かせないことですが
たくさん寝ることは、多くの体調不良を解決するための方法として
良く知られています。
コロナの症状としては
・発熱(Max40.0℃)
・インフル様症状(悪寒、筋肉痛)
・解熱後の耳鼻科症状(喉の痛み、鼻づまり)
高熱も確かにしんどかったですが
解熱後の咳に一番苦しめられています。
なにせ呼吸苦が本当に苦しいです、、
体調には気を付けたいですね、、、。

Holy time dilation Batman
I wake up from being half asleep on the couch, look at my phone, see 7:30
I think "ah shoot it's 7:30pm already, how did I sleep so long and get so little rest" (I have non-24-hour sleep/wake disorder, I'm basically nocturnal at the moment, it's a whole thing)
I look outside and think "man it's really light out for 8pm"
I then proceed to close my blackout curtains and go to bed
Cut to me an hour and a half later: "man it's still really bright outside?? It's like 9pm, what's going on?"
*opens clock app*
"oh you've gotta be kidding me"

we heard that you were very disappointed in us both as a generation and specifically as a generation of women (emphasis yours), how we had let ourselves go and now we were slutty and ill-tempered and holding onto notions of feminism like "having a savings account" and "equality."
we were very sorry about it, we didn't realize. it is very hard for you, in your life, because your entire definition was centered around the word providing, and that's a really vague and undulating word. it is hard to be a provider. for your purposes, the word provider here can be defined as "having a job", although it sometimes also extends to "doing yard work", "grilling on occasion," and "knowing basic car anatomy."
we had to do some reading but we divided it out. do not worry. high-value women will fill in the rest of the gaps of your life - all those silly feminine things like doing the dishes. we didn't realize we had asked too much when we asked you to pick up after yourself. we did not realize you were rendered small and scared and crying about the possibility of doing the laundry. here is a joke to lighten the sentiment: a man that listens when you talk to him.
we heard about how we had fallen from glory and it sickened us and made us very, very sad. lindsey had to cut all her hair off and tara threw up. we lit one million candles and we are going to have a vigil about it tonight. all of the people in this world that you do not approve of are going to be there and we will all be in mourning colors because we have lost your respect which is of course the only thing that any of us were looking for.
we searched around our bedrooms and our closets and for some of us it took a while but we all found the pricetag that we were originally born with, the one that gave our listing offer, the one that smells like rot and pine needles. we were horrified because many of us had taken deductions and hadn't realized it. i had scraped my knees and decided to be a lesbian so they had to take my voicebox out so i could never call home again. janice had been with too many people overall so we had to put her into the big squisher that will hopefully collapse her walls so that when you're with her, you'll feel so big and powerful. it will be like you're conquering something instead of being close with someone.
we are all going to the funeral of feminism and we will tear at our bodies and fall over ourselves. we will invite you onstage for a live recording of your podcast about the occasional minor inconvenience of self-reflection. you will talk about how we have targeted you and made you feel the sweat slick down your back, and we will teach you basic self-defense out of solidarity.
do not worry, we are seeing to all the outliers. taylor asked to be taken seriously so we have shipped her off to prison. laura asked you to accept her femininity regardless of her presentation. you will be happy to hear all women are now and forever going to have to be small and thin and pretty and white and ablebodied and quiet and unassuming and ladylike, which is different than how society has previously told us to act.
i am going to have to shave off my jawline, which is a little masculine, and they are going to have to reshape my hands, which are very square and thick - all the work i've done with them has made their veins stand out, so we're just going to have to exsanguinate me. i am horrified to have been out in public like this.
we are going to sit around the campfire and we will talk about being weird little girls that made potions in pink teacups. we will talk about the first time we made a difference. we will talk about the private lives of crickets, and then, at the stroke of three in the morning (the witching hour, obviously) - we will all promptly shut up.
and this will be your beautiful world. this silence that spans every corner of every street and every zoom meeting and every alley. i do not think you'll notice at first - it will be the same as every television show and movie and book. we will all just simply sit there in our doll dresses and smile blithely at your advances and none of us will do you the dishonor of answering and none of us will appear to be in distress and none of us will nag you or make a fuss or get hysterical about it. it will just be quiet, and you will say finally, some peace for once! and we will smell of smoke and our teeth will be white and the next day will come.
tonight we are going to bury the last little bits of our humanity. you are not invited. it is going to be ugly.

letteralmente uno schifo immondo che in questo paese di merda si viene criticatə per una frase che dovrebbe essere così ovviamente e inequivocabilmente giusta e umana come "stop al genocidio" e si sente in risposta un comunicato in cui si esprime solidarietà con israele, con il colonialismo d'insediamento, con l'uccisione di decine di migliaia di persone, donne bambini uomini innocenti.
letteralmente ieri si è scoperto che una bambina palestinese di SEI anni di cui non si avevano più notizie da fine gennaio dopo l'uccisione da parte di israele dei suoi familiari è stata anch'essa uccisa. è rimasta chissà quante ore chiusa in macchina circondata dalla sua famiglia, tutti morti, ha chiamato i soccorsi spaventata in un modo che penso nessuno di noi potrà mai comprendere e ha aspettato le ambulanze. che sono arrivate a pochi metri dalla macchina, i paramedici pronti a salvarla, per essere invece uccisi insieme alla stessa bambina.
hind rajab, ricordatevi questo nome. sentite tutto il peso dell'orrore che si sta compiendo, che israele compie tutti i giorni e di cui l'italia è complice e non rimanete zittə e fermə a guardare. non lasciamo che si supporti un genocidio nel nostro nome senza dire un secco, potente, convinto, inequivocabile NO. ci vediamo in piazza.

Having ADHD is just like:
I'm sorry.
I know it's inconvenient.
I'm sorry.
I know it's annoying.
I'm sorry.
I know it's selfish.
I'm sorry...
I know I shouldn't say sorry because an apology without change is manipulation.
I'm sorry.
I know I can't change my behavior; I've tried.
I'm sorry
