I’m getting so pissed with people who are saying Gwen isnt trans. Like they’re trying to explain why her dad has a trans patch on his jacket and why she has a trans flag in her room, by saying she supports trans people… wtf???? Literally what ally has a TRANS FLAG, IN THEIR ROOM, BECAUSE THEY SUPPORT TRANS PEOPLE??? That’s some shit closeted me would tell my parents when they saw me drawing rainbows. People that are saying this shit are literally just transphobic and dont want her to be trans. Gwen is trans and fuck everyone that argues against that.
which one of these is the so called “american flag”
In Gwen’s universe trans people took over America and made the trans flag the national flag.
I mean, there are two versions of the film circulating
and she’s trans in both of them. hope that helps.
the two different versions are only very subtle dialog changes and some comic book style text boxes being blue instead of yellow.
sorry for veggieangelism but really you can put pretty much any veg in the oven for 20 minutes at 400 covered in olive oil, salt, pepper, onion+garlic powder and have it be good
So much of the “advice” given to people with ADHD is just like
Step One: Become neurotypical
Habit formation part of the brain broken, advice ineffective
It took me until my twenties to build an actual tooth brushing habit. Years and years of parents hounding me to brush after breakfast & dinner, painful years having to also brush after lunch at school because braces (and mostly not doing it), years & years of 6 weeks managing each night then a long stretch of not brushing at all, years & years of frequent cavities…I had a years-long stretch of good brushing broken by one night being too exhausted to brush & just didn’t brush at all for the longest while ever…
I could not tell you what exactly helped me transition, but I can tell you various pieces
I switched from trying to form a habit (which I feel stressed about doing and guilty if I don’t do it or don’t do it well) to trying a routine
Habit vs Routine: EG breakfast as a habit: make exact same meal each morning at same time regardless of hunger/activity/interest, feel bad about changing things up VS breakfast as a set of routines: cereal routine, get bowl, milk, cereal, spoon, pour, eat, take care of dishes; eggs routine: fry/scramble/whatever, eat, dishes; in a rush routine: grab 2 granola bars & a fruit & rush out
I bundled “habit” tootbrushing into the “going to bed” routine; routine is more flexible than habit & leaves room (and acceptance and no guilt) for adaptation
So like, standard I’m not exhausted just ordinary going to bed routine: go to bathroom, use toilet, wash hands, take out contacts, floss & brush teeth (thoroughly), put in retainer, then go to bed, lotion dry hands, turn out lights, sleep
Routine for when I’m dying of exhaustion: toilet, eyes/contacts, cursory brush, sleep
It took a long time, but eventually I wasn’t having to remember to brush my teeth separately–I’d be tired and telling myself I’d let myself skip tooth brushing and initiate Goint To Bed and find myself brushing anyway because hey I’m in the bathroom there’s the brush oh I’m just Going to Bed and brushing is a step of that
Call it a routine, call it task bundling, call it operative conditioning, whatever
I still don’t *wash* dishes as a part of my Eat Meal routine which irks my housemates/parents but whatevs, 1 battle at a time
I want to close on a certain note, which is a How to ADHD book by a psych professional living with ADHD, and which I actually found helpful, but I am having trouble finding the title even searching back through all my reading history on 2 apps so….bear with me and I will either edit this post or reblog again. It was a book I heard about from @thebibliosphere first so I dunno maybe I’ll chance the tumblr search function
Possibly KC Davis, How To Keep House While Drowning?
my toxic xennial trait is that i believe something should either be software (in which case after i download it i shouldn’t need to be connected to use it) or a web page (which shouldn’t require me to download anything to use it, however badly, in a browser). fuck your mandatory single function constant connection apps
just saw a clip where f1nn5ter was saying how at this point, he can’t be cis, but at the same time, he doesn’t feel like he’s trans—he’s just neither. and someone in chat was like “you can’t be neither cis nor trans that’s not how it works” i love finn but why is his chat so fucking bad 😭 stop recreating binaries for the love of god, identity does not have to fall into these neat little boxes for you to police
