Top 10 Reasons to know Sign Langauge:

1. You can communicate through windows 2. Sign language is a 3-D Language 3. You can sign with your mouth full 4. Hearing parents can communicate with their Deaf child 5. You can sign underwater 6. Sign Language is a neat way to express yourself 7. You can communicate across a room or via mirror without shouting 8. Sign language is beautiful 9. You can make friends with Deaf people 10. Sign language brings together Hearing & Deaf people

Also if you really want to learn most deaf people are so happy that you are interested in learning and will be super patient and work with you. 

And it’s a really great thing to be able to do for any job because imagine having to go everywhere with someone that can translate for you or with paper to write or trying to read lips and just going to grab a cup of coffee and Hey, the barista knows sign language. They aren’t great but you get to speak with them and order your coffee in the way that’s natural to you like that would just make your day. Or a teacher that can talk and sign so classes don’t have to divide?? Or a therapist that can sign?? Hearing people signing 2k15 honestly.

Plus sign language is simpler and faster to learn than written/spoken languages. And there are lots of resources online for any language you may want to learn:

And you can always google for Deaf/Hard of hearing places/centers in your city and go ask, most of them offer free or really affordable courses 

the sign for sex is really similar to the sign for god so just be careful…

Eni Puzzle Keychain Charm Stimtastic $9.70

The Eni Puzzle Keychain Charm is small, lightweight, and fits in most pockets. It can also clasp onto your bag or belt loop. It has eight columns of eight colors arranged in rainbow order, counter-clockwise. There is only one model.

It has three main ways to play or stim with it: rearranging the colors by moving a single row or column of colors towards the spot without a color, like a sliding puzzle; twisting the parts around, like a Rubik’s cube; and running your fingers over the bumps for the texture.

Pros: Colorful, textured, multiple ways to play, lightweight, very portable, lots of moving parts

Cons: Kinda hard to move individual color pieces around sometimes, potentially noisy, not very weighted

Overall rating: 9/10

Twiddle

bought from stimtastic ($9.50 +shipping)

I really like the twiddle! It’s a 2 foot long chain that is looped. It works similarly to the tangle but the risk of it breaking is way lower. It also makes a satisfying click if you take apart the links and click them back together.

However, it does rub kinda loudly if you aren’t careful. I don’t think anyone else has noticed, but I have.

Overall rating: 9/10

SUMMARY:

works similarly to the tangle, more durable, but not as quiet as the tangle. Very great.

Thanks to anon, I recently discovered that the brand “Kinetic Sand” aka the most popular and accessible kind of kinetic sand that you can find at most drug stores and target/walmarts supports and is partnered with Autism $peaks. Warning do not watch the video. It has extremely ableist/anti autism quotes.

With that being said here are some recipes to make your own.

Recipe 1

Recipe 2

Recipe 3 (video)

There are hundreds of other recipes and videos available online! Just google kinetic sand recipe.

I haven’t found any other retailers  yet who sell it besides Brookstone who also support Autism $peaks. However, I do sell and make my own kinetic sand on my etsy shop in small quantities. I am thinking of making bigger bags for sale if people are interested so let me know! Don’t feel bad if you have bought sand from the Kinetic Sand brand before, I admit I have, but in the future be more careful and educate others on why not to support this brand.

Koko the penguin is ready for Halloween.

I gave the ombrai pattern a go and this is how it turned out inspired by the brown leaves of autumn

I wanted to join in on the halloween fun 👻 

So thanks to popular petition I’m finally releasing the parths I made for Vesper! They’re directly based on @pixelroses‘ Rosy Brick Paths, check out her blog for cute designs! 

Vesper’s dream code is 4600-6416-5585, in case you wanna visit, and tag @white-pansies if you use them btw, I’d love to see!

Hi dudes!

Here are the September 16th qr codes for circle, square and triangle grass!  These should last for about a month, until the next grass change.  The colors work really well during a sunny day, at almost all times!  towards the evening and at night (and I’m assuming around dawn as well) the match looks off.  

The how-to guides for the Sept 8th and Sept 16th match will come out either later today or tomorrow (hopefully LOL)!

Reasons why you should use MSPARP if you’re a roleplayer

tips & tricks & i’ve learned in 21 years as a human girl who has adhd

some of these i’ve learned on my own, or from family/friends, or reddit/tumblr/pintrest/facebook. but i’ve compiled a list that has helped me remain focused, organized, and not having my mind go all over the place. some of them are just good to know.

1. don’t put it down, put it away (helps immensely with clutter)

2. use a planner for everything, not just school (i use an actual planner because writing it down actually helps me remember it better, but an app can work too)

3. color code class materials, use a different color for each subject (i’m a nursing student and i’m always running around like crazy, my binders, folders, and notebooks for each class each have their own color. ex: bio=green, chem=blue, psych=pink. that way if i’m in a rush, i never grab the wrong stuff.)

4. rewriting class notes, memos, important dates, & anything else worth remembering helps to engrain it in your mind 

5. meal prepping twice every week helps to save time & money & also helps to keep your meals nice and healthy (it also helps me remember to eat because sometimes i have a hard time doing so since my vyvanse suppresses my appetite. it also helps to eat before i take my meds because then i have a more normal appetite and i’m not cranky. i’m also someone who would rather just not eat because i get stressed if i have to cook something, so having something all set and ready to go for each meal is such a huge stress relief)

6. do some sort of exercise for 30 minutes at least 4 times a week because it gets rid of excess energy, helps you to focus, & look & feel great (i do 45 minutes of cardio every other day on the stair-stepper & i’ve just gotten really into weight lifting. cardio definitely helps me A LOT to not be so cranky or all over the place)

7. pick out and get your outfit for the next day, every single night (i pick out EVERYTHING from the actual clothes, to the underwear, socks, bra, shoes, & accessories. this helps because i also have a weird thing about how clothes fit over undergarments & i also have a weird thing about matching clothes with undergarments, socks, & shoes)

8. pack your backpack and whatever else you need the night before (i put all my class materials, snacks & drinks, chargers, gym clothes, etc in my bag every night before i go to bed so i don’t rush or forget anything in the morning)

9. have a bag full of essentials that you take everywhere (i have a purse that i keep my wallet, keys, a protein bar, a water, my iPad, a back up charger, pen, small notebook, planner, gum, & hand sanitizer that i take with me everywhere. everything has it’s own special pocket & i never lose track of the things i need)

10. make lists of “to’s” (to do, to remember, to buy)

11. go from room to room whenever you leave someplace to make sure you haven’t left anything behind 

12. use post-it notes in visible places as reminders

13. set aside one day per week to do stuff you need to get done (cleaning, schoolwork, chores, grocery shopping, etc)

14. have a “time out” for yourself every other day to relax and recharge (i set aside an hour or two every single day to read or watch a tv show or do something that doesn’t require too much thought or energy. i don’t answer calls or texts, and i try not to browse social media. this helps me relax and not feel overwhelmed throughout the day or the week)

15. set alarms for waking up, tasks, & cooking fro better time management (i use a great app called 30/30 thats a great task manager. it lets you set up a list with a set time for each task. the timer starts and you go about your task, once the time is up, it lets you know you should move onto your next task)
