Btw, the arm soreness after vaccination is a combination of the needle going into the muscle, the muscle fibers being slightly stretched by the injection of fluid between them, and then the inflammation of the immune system realizing something foreign is in the arm and getting ticked off about it (this is good, it's the beginning of your immune response!).

Doctors recommend you keep the arm moving to keep blood flowing which can help reduce soreness. Ice packs also help!

if you’re white and wanna write a poc character and feel awkward about it i implore you to ignore any twitblr stuff treating it as a massive ethical burden and instead come in more with the same mindset you’d have if you wanted to write about idk firefighters but didn’t know anything about firefighters so you do... research. Like fuck off with the weird kinda creepy calls for spiritual introspection you’re not writing about god damn space aliens you’re writing about humans and if you think you need more perspective of different life experiences just read?

Unless you’d consider yourself an expert on medieval history, if it feels easier to get into ‘the mind’ of an 11th century knight than it does a normal 21st century person of a different ethnicity than yours that’s not a sign of ‘being woke’ and you should ignore any weirdo twitblrs that basically wanna reskin racial Othering as a good and moral thing to uphold bc that’s what this discourse amounts to

I'm glad someone said this wow. Twitter has been fucking with my mind lately.

Summary:  They say nothing good ever happens in the early hours of the morning, and he supposes there really is some truth to that. He may not have been up to anything wicked at the moment, but that doesn’t make him a saint by any means. He’s been up to his share of depravity and evildoings in the hours shrouded in darkness before, and he surely would again. Tonight’s just a rare exception, and nothing more.

YES QUEEN LUFF YOUUU!!

Me: I just sometimes get so stressed that I just want to screech
My Therapist: Then do it.
Me: I’m sorry?
My Therapist: Primal screeching is one way of completing your stress cycle, do it. Be mindful of where you are, I usually do it in my car, but yeah. Go for it.
Me: Ah- Oh.
My Therapist: Holding that kind of thing in is what’s locking you into that stress state. Screeching, running, dancing, that tells your body they the danger has passed and you’ll relax. Since you have a lifetime of that shit locked away, it’ll take a sec but yeah. Screech if you want to.

YO this is legit

My dad has always had me do this, especially when I was little and kept the baby up. We would go into the back yard, point to the river (to keep the ship captains up at night) and scream. I was also told to jump up and down to “get all the scream out” 

I did this in college too. There’s nothing more cathartic than climbing the fence of the fishing pier, running to the end of it and screaming into the wind. It’s powerful, it’s therapeutic, it’s feral and wonderful. 

I did this with kids too, when they have too much energy. When I worked at a children’s camp and the kids had too much energy when the rain canceled pool time I took them out in the rain, made them jump up and down and scream, and then 15 some nine-year-olds and I would rance across the field screaming in the rain

Go scream, just face towards the river when you do it

Adventurer’s Tip #345: Sometimes you just gotta scream. Just face towards the river when you do.

This has the same energy and practicality as “run (or walk, wheel, or whatever is accessible to you) when you’re having a panic attack.” Sometimes the best thing you can do is give in to your body’s primal fucking urges and hit the reset button on whatever you’re feeling.

You should also scream and swear when you get hurt because:

  1. Makes it hurt less. That’s actual science.
  2. Lets people around you know you are in distress and need help
  3. Gets you out of the habit of ignoring/minimalizing pain, which is terrible for your mental and physical health because if you keep ignoring pain, you ignore signs your body needs help, which leads to MAJOR problems that could have been treated earlier.
  4. Your neighbor’s kids were gonna learn the word “fuck!” At some point, might as well be in its appropriate context and when your neighbor can’t get too mad because you have a nail in your thumb or something.
