The Violet Kingdom Awaits!

So you don’t have to watch the video every time you need one of these hacks immediately:

1. If you feel nauseated, smell rubbing alcohol.

2. If you feel like throwing up, start humming.

3. If you have a runny nose, put your tongue to the roof of your mouth and press your thumb to your forehead for about 20 seconds.

4. If you have a headache, pinch the webbing between your fingers and rub it back and forth for about 1 minute.

5. If you’re lightheaded from standing up too quickly, clench your butt cheeks.

6. If your arm’s dead/has the pins and needles feeling, rock your head back and forth.

7. If you need to pee badly, think of sex to trick your brain and relieve the pressure.

8. If you have a migraine, stick your hands in ice water.

9. If you wanna calm your racing heart, blow on your thumb.

If you're lightheaded while standing up, opening and closing your fists is also something to do. Also try stretching before getting up!

(These are vasovagal syncope tricks, to get the blood pumping where it should be)

Thanks for adding another hack!

I used the humming one when I randomly started dry heaving today, and that shit worked so fast!👌🏼

People have written a lot of touchy-feely pieces on this subject but I thought I’d get right to the heart of the matter

Pro tip: If you copy and paste a link that said “no free articles” into a private/incognito browser, it will let you read the whole thing.

also if u press the “esc” (escape) key on ur laptop before the page fully loads, it won’t load any pop-ups blocking u from reading. if the article has images, then this method sometimes does not u see them. but! the words will be fine :)

If the site is particularly badly designed, you might just be able to delete the overlay itself. Right click > Inspect element and delete the line of HTML (it’ll be highlighted automatically)

hey kids there is a website called outline.com that will let you read from pretty much any news site with a paywall for free

outline.com is amazing - it hasn’t failed yet on any site that I’ve tried it on.

There’s a chrome extension and firefox extension.

All of these resources are incredible but don’t forget how fucked it is that we have to do this.

love being a choice rather than an expectation or unbreakable bond or destiny makes it more powerful than any of those things actually

blood means nothing because blood can betray. blood can hurt you. destiny lies to you. nothing is promised. soul mates? nope. none of us are made to complete anyone but ourselves.

but a choice? there is nothing more powerful. every day i wake up and i choose you. and you choose me. and our impermanence holds power. our decisions hold power. like the very lives we live there is nothing guaranteed about us and we have to fight so hard to protect the little things we hold dear. but there’s a beauty in that isnt there?

Welcome, Miss Jolyne!!

Suplexing my morning depression to at least celebrate a BIT after all,  because I’ve been waiting for Stone Ocean and I refuse to not at least TRY to have a good time today

the trend of having a bit where lil nas x like very quickly descends from heaven on the pole in tiktoks and like 0.2 seconds of montero plays is so funny
