Today, Pink Icon For A Pink Month

genuinely it is much better to let yourself feel bad when things creative wise doesn’t do well and remind yourself that it’s okay to feel like this just don’t let it determine your value instead of allowing it to put you in some creative burnout hole

dandelions are magic. literally tiny suns in the grass that turn into the moon and then the stars when you blow on them. fucking insane.

this is what i expect from the mario movie

A full moon shines, an omen of safe travels.

So I've seen a lot of talk about pain scales. How there should be a special one for chronic pain patients or people who say they're 11 out of 10, etc.

The thing with pain scales though, they are supposed to be about the bodies reaction to pain. A pain scale is supposed to be about how to appropriately treat a patient. So if a person is a 10 from something you'd be a 6, their pain still needs to be treated in accordance to how it feels for the patient (in a perfect world). Your 5 may be another person's 9 but that's beyond the point. 10 is still the peak for the worst pain possible you can handle. Pain where you black out and can't speak. Where you go into shock. Where you can't do anything but lay there locked in agony. That is the peak for anyone period because that's where the body taps out. There shouldn't be extra numbers for chronic pain patients or anything. It defeats the purpose of pain scales. A good pain scale is about physical reactions with the body.

No pain scale is perfect but doctors need some way to gauge how to treat a patient. This one is the one I prefer the most because it is about the body's physical reaction to pain and the treatment for it.

hey cf/antinatalism folks, Stop Having Kids is trying to help a university student do a study on childfree couples! I don’t meet the study’s criteria (queer and aro lol), but someone else might?? spread this post to help get some respectful scientific study attention for our subculture!
