Jepp. Det er veeeeldig lett å gjennomskue at alle som synser i retning "asså folk VIL ha diagnoser! :O :O" aldri har vært i nærheten av å trenge -hjelp- i et system hvor diagnosekoder fungerer som det magiske Sesam, sesam! ✨️
Girl/teen movie podcast "This ends at prom" is excellent AND uses a theme song that my inner angst teen is able to hear through all the "ugh no feelings are stupid" rubble they're buried under (It's 'Title' by The Sonder Bombs and I finally remembered to type it into my music app too)
Korrekt medisinering av adhd gir lavere risiko for selvmord, rusmisbruk, trafikkulykker og kriminalitet. Eller "urimelige økonomiske fordeler" som Tone Sofie Aglen vel vil kalle det 🙄

Det er jo bare den alminnelige "alle har det sånn"-bagatelliseringen, hånd i hånd med "det var ingen som var nevrodivergente FØR!" 🫠
"Someone tried to strangle Sneako", "Clavicular just had a drug overdose", I refuse to believe that understanding any of these headlines is better for me than chain-smoking
Det er ganske vanlig å se dårlig. Likevel skal alle med redusert syn behandles nå til dags. Noen får briller. Noen velger linser, som innebærer en risiko for infeksjoner, irritasjon og komplikasjoner. En del opererer til og med øynene!
Har definisjonen av hva som er "normalt syn" blitt for smal?
Helsevesen: du må ha diagnose for å få adgang til medisin/inngrep/tilbud/oppfølging
NAV: du må ha diagnose for å KANSKJE få adgang til tilskudd, ytelser, uførepensjon, hjelpemidler
Denna fyren: sykdomsgevinst 😔😔😔😔😔
Course project instructions include "trust the process, don't overthink", and I'm kind of shocked by how deeply seen AND soothed that makes me feel. Yesyes I AM a self-sabotaging trembling cloud of vapor collapsing from stress if asked to produce two (2) dewdrops, thank you for speaking softly to me
Her Highness the cat on the sofa, doing a combination lounge-stretch with far extended hind paw but ALSO bunny-forepaws in a camera-confounding mass of floof
BEHOLD THE CATTE
Look. I ate a cup of oatmeal within 1 hr of waking up this morning. Somehow despite this I am sluggish and stupid and useless, this is not the personal development benefit of "eat breakfast" I was promised, please let me speak to a manager
From EARTHSEED: THE BOOKS OF THE LIVING Choose your leaders with wisdom and forethought. To be led by a coward is to be controlled by all that the coward fears. To be led by a fool is to be led by the opportunists who control the fool. To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasures to be stolen. To be led by a liar is to ask to be told lies. To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery.
Octavia E. Butler, 1998:
A subway style map on a parchment background. The map's title reads: "Narnia Transit Map: Talking Beasts Ride Free." The map has seven keys, one for each of the seven books in C.S. Lewis's Narinia series. The main movements of characters and action in each book are traced by colored lines, like a subway map. Locations in each book are marked out as stops in the lines. There is a drawing of a lion above the title of the map, and in the lower right corner there is a compass rose.
My LoTR subway maps have been quite popular, but they're not the only ones I've drawn! I really like my Narnia one, too.
With separate lines for the plot arcs of each of the books, it gives you a fun way to see Lewis's world.

Her Highness the cat, sitting in my a4 sketchbook, yelling heartily
Subtle hint that I need to clear space around the sketchbook so she can patrol unhindered around me
Oooor just that I need to provide a snacc
Sofie the cat is completely unaware of me when Her Highness the cat is present. She just flopped her whole self down where she might just barely touch Her Highness, which turned out to be 100% on my face. To her credit, she wasn't upset by my laughing into her flank
Skal gjøre det når bsky har lyst til å la meg se/sende DMs igjen, henger fælt nå 😅
...det er VELDIG vanskelig å navigere blant disse...behandlerne, og jeg aner ikke hvordan dømme kredibiliteten til klinikker med navn som stort sett inneholder beauty og vanity osv (vurderer bare de som spesifikt prislister kjevespenning/medisinsk-behandling, med teorien "de vet iaf hva jeg vil")
Haaar jeg noen her som har erfaring med steder som setter botoxinjeksjoner i oslo? Jeg må prøve å bedøve min masseter/kjeve (som alltid har vært hardt prøvet, men nå er det mulig den i tillegg er ansvarlig for bananas ny tinnitus, og jeg blir gal)
Her Highness the cat almost entirely hidden behind a plastic storage container, except for her ears and half of one eye. On her right is a large scratching post with completely eviscerated rope dangling from it. Her Highness manages to look rascally and smug, despite being almost entirely hidden
...yes, I'm going to wind new rope around your mega scratching post, but I also know that's not why you're giving me that look
Stories about women with ailments that involve pain NOT told entirely in terms of fertility and reproduction are so. Fucking. Rare.
Crossing fingers this book holds up,
Just started reading Schulman's 'Theory of bastards', on my tbr for years and I don't remember WHY I initially took an interest, but it could be that it's an sf novel that utilizes the kafkaesque experience of severe endometriosis - and (so far) NOT in an in-/fertility context.

And it's good to really SEE that Expert-talk diverges from reality, I guess, but also very age-affirming to feel how very long it's been since the time I actually sat still to read things like Grimmy
I grew up reading VAST amounts of comic strips, and now I'm trying to look at them again to see if I can make myself fit the format, and...ALL I can see is the stuff every book/expert has taught me is Illegal. Like 'talking heads', where the text is the only relevant thing in the frames, etc.
A delightful tale of a clowder of very normal authors each trying to interrupt the others to state a very normal thought about cats
How is she catting with the intensity of a thousand cat suns ALL the time

Her Highness the cat, primly curl-loafed on her desk extender plush shelf, light coming in from the window behind her.
I feel so proud when she shows me I made her a Good Place to be in. This is a clamp-on extender to the desk, more than sturdy enough for her <5 kilos.
Also she appears to be charging. With my phone charger cable.
