I just texted my neighbor and asked if one day soon we can go to the downstairs patio and have coffee or something. That is a HUGE DEAL FOR ME. 😳

I have this little Link plushie sitting by my Xbox and my moms neighbor gave me the Hello Kitty pin. I can't wear the pin, but I loved her so much she is now protecting Link and I can see her all the time! (Small gifts are the BEST! 🥹)

A Link plushie from the Zelda game with a Hello Kitty pin stuck to his chest like a shield. She is punk rock Hello Kitty and has a Mohawk and a guitar.

My mom surprised me today and was an absolute ROCKSTAR! She was amazing with the depression, even made me feel better. She did the dishes, finished a load of laundry, and helped organize some clothes so I can get myself dressed!

Still, I can't use all facial recognition tech reliably. I can unlock my phone with my face, but on my laptop it was so buggy I turned it off. "Fun" social media filters didn't fit... Face Equality International is helping research these issues, see: faceequalityinternational.org/recognising-...

I'm depressed today. Everything is more difficult and is making me more sad. And my body is responding to it.

As a general rule, men who defend rapists are rapists or at least holding space in case they decide to become rapists later.

Additional scripts for cis het white men who want to be better allies: “What a weird thing to say” “Do you hear yourself right now?” “You shouldn’t say shit like that to people” “I won’t let you talk to them that way” “That’s a disgusting opinion to have” “Shut the fuck up, dude”

It blows my mind when people’s defence of using gen AI is, ‘Well, if I need a picture, what do you suggest I do? I don’t have time to learn to draw!’ The same thing you did four years ago, you microwaved fruit loop.

I have great sleeping pills, but with the steroids, if I wake up, I'm up. So it's 4 Am and I don't have access to coffee until 5:30. 🫩

I've had so much inflammation that it was affecting my blood sugars. Sure, I'm taking 2 1/2 times my normal dose with the steroids, but I am STICKING THE LANDING, and my blood sugars are in target, happily chilling out. So weird. So so weird. 🥴

*giggle* I adore Bree for so many reasons (my new addiction to freeze dried Smarties is just one) but I have paid attention to these things she does and says and implemented them on my own TL. I no longer have ppl popping in to give me advice. It has been AMAZING!

To put it another way, you can’t just tell your sons they need to take accountability—you need to hold them accountable. Start with small stuff. Don’t shield them for the consequences of their actions. Walk them through the process of doing the wrong thing and turning it into the right thing.

I LOVE K, MY OT! I gave her our budget, and she helped me pick out a safer shower chair so I will be able to GET IN THERE! We worked on yoga breathing and small posture adjustments. Tai chi. Some soft movements for bulging disks. Meditation "exercises" to put in place after the steroids!

You'd be surprised at how powerful a simple "The fuck are you doing, man?" with a bemused look is. I used it as a bartender all the time & it's so effective at disarming dudes. Especially coming out if a frat bro acting guy like me.

I hate the word “spooky” and I believe it has a racist history. Please take care when going into this new holiday season. It may be just a word to you, but that word could be very offensive to others.

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

TW: food, eating disorder I’m so excited to see my therapist on Thursday to tell her that these steroids have made me hungry enough that I am developing a better relationship with food, and I’m eating things I enjoy! Food is fantastic! And bread is the best!

Oooooh, the caffeine crash. I still want to go rearrange the cars in the parking lot to make them slightly straighter, but my eyes are so heavy... so sleepy... Tomorrow I move cars. Tonight, I snuggle Rory and listen to this app that provides the sound of a cat purring. All. Night.

What a wild ride this is. I'm now strengthened by steroids. Wired by coffee. And stoooooned by the cannabis. 💪😳🥴

I got the steroid puffiness! My husband says it's "cherubic."😆 I'm not looking my best, but I am DRESSED, my hair is BRUSHED, and I even dabbed some eyeshadow on. 😘

Me, a chubby white woman with short brown hair and green cat eye glasses. Im wearing a pink ajd white shirt, and my face is sort of scrunched up with my eyes closed to show off how round it looks.

I’ve been sleeping great with the new sleeping pills despite my hand tingling off and on all night. These would normally be severe pain nights so the steroids are working but I can’t take them forever and I am terrified about after. 😢

LRS: The only places I get to go anymore are doctors appointments. And 9 times out of 10, my caregiver and I are the only ones masking. Or a handful of others. It's rare though. Even at the MS clinic. And the hospital. Was kinda shocked my driver had one on last time tbh.

Ok so today has been "rest" day. Steroids are a tricky drug. You feel EMPOWERED and MOTIVATED, so I'm doing my PT/OT every 2 hrs, but slooowly, and I'm not trying to WIN at PT/OT. Rory and I played with the feather duster (I dusted what I could from the wheelchair) and I did my weekly meds.

I am quite candid about what is going on with me, and I will continue to do so going forward. If this bothers you it’s ok to block, mute, unfollow to protect your peace. Promise! But there has been no one to walk me through this. No one telling me the best or safest way.

Nia (Nye-uh) ETQ. FREE LINK @blogofmanythings.art · 27/09/2026

I did all that today, PLUS I did my PT/OT twice. I even got out of bed, BY MYSELF! Please. Clap. (My hand is tingling, and if it weren't for the prednisone, I would be screaming into a pillow in pain! 😬)

We are going to try the hair washing basin for the first time! The caps that are used in the hospital make my head itch, hanging my head over a bucket that's on my wheelchair feet is messy, and I can't stand for the sink. 🤞 I get some clean hair! (TWO FUCKING MONTHS WITHOUT A REAL SHOWER! 😭)

yay?

Top panel: On the left, text reads "Finally getting the correct diagnosis". On the right, a man smiles excitedly and looks forward with realization.

Bottom panel: On the left, text reads "The diagnosis is chronic and incurable, and the only treatment is to manage symptoms". On the right, the same man's smile vanishes into a vacant, disappointed gaze.

A sensible baseline would be reassessment only when there’s credible evidence of a material change—not simply because the calendar says someone must re-prove a lifelong disability.

I just tasted freeze dried Sweetarts and I nearly died. Just knowing there is a bag in the house is making me twitch to go eat the entire 4 oz bag. AND they help with the Prednisone medication taste!
