Yeah you say this, except there’s a good chance you were chronically dehydrated as a kid. The reason you didn’t think you were is because a) no one was talking about dehydration at the time, and b) the effects weren’t immediately obvious.

But when my grown-up massage clients get on my table and I have to keep reapplying lotion because their skin absorbs the first layer immediately? When they have a million “knots” because their soft tissue fibers got dried out, lost their elasticity and became sticky, basically glued themselves together, and now it hurts when you move your arm like this, or your neck is always achey?

Yeah, that’s chronic dehydration. That’s shit that builds up over years of not drinking enough water (and/or not stretching, and/or having shitty posture, and/or not healthily processing your difficult emotions, and/or…)

Health is mostly maintenance. You have to act in “healing” ways consistently if you don’t want to spend your life in a cycle of pain -> fix -> same pain again. And the younger you start, the better your results will be.

So yeah, treat the youth and yourself like beached orcas and drink that water.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

Same energy

Ok I know many foreign names in manga/anime do sound this dumb out of cluelessness and it’s funny to point and laugh, but in the case of Death Note in particular, this was not a “haha japanese man doesn’t know american names” thing. The weird names were a deliberate choice.

I don’t have my copy with me right now to directly quote the passage, but on the Death Note vol. 13 tankoubon—which consists of extras and behind-the-scenes content—, the author says that all the names in the series (including the japanese ones) were chosen to not be similar to real names, to avoid creating awkwardness/fear/superstition due to someone’s real name being in the fictional Death Note.

For the japanese names, this was achieved by using names that sound like normal japanese names, but are written with unusual kanji (such as the surname Ide being spelled 伊出 rather than 井手, or Takahashi spelled 鷹橋 rather than 高橋). Light’s whole name, Yagami Light spelled 夜神月, is very unique and unusual, to avoid creating unwanted association between him and any real person.

Since names in english don’t have kanji, the author just invented names that sound vaguely american/british but are not real names in those countries.

oh i didn’t know this!  that’s actually really cool!

something they don’t tell you about being autistic is that every character you write WILL end up autistic/autistic-coded whether you like it or not

same goes for being aromantic/asexual. every character WILL come out at least a little aspec

if you reblog this and purposefully remove the second addition i Will block you.

“con artist” is maybe the profession with the biggest gap between How Cool They Are In Media and How Cool They Are In Real Life

fictional con artist: I’ve gathered you all here because you each have unique skills and specialties that will be required for the Ultimate Heist: psychologically destroying the richest man in the world, and taking his mansions, his yacht, and his wife in the process.

real life con artist: plan A is to scare an old lady who barely speaks English. plan B, is to trick unemployed people into giving us money, which they famously have a lot of, in exchange for broadly-defined Career Services. plan C is we try to make NFTs a thing again

80% of “passing” is having enough money to purchase the clothes and services that will allow you to pass. Please stop holding being able to stealth up as the pinnacle of trans achievement. That place belongs to surviving. It belongs to finding joy. It belongs to love and community, not people who are rich enough to have professional makeup artists and tailors.
