No Offense But I Need Everyone To Stop Saying That “we Survived” Bad Presidents Before. Like, I Get

This is what it looks like when non-straight, non-white, non-male people get to host late night shows

Dunking on the “Blacks for Trump” woman and a Carmilla shoutout is the kind of glorious content we have to look forward to when networks finally stop hiring only straight cis white dudes to host late night shows. Please.

Gifs: Late Night with Seth Meyers

I didn't realize this and my brother is handicapped. But we have to do everything for him. This is grand.

Like, 90% of infomercial style products were designed by/for disabled people, but you wouldn’t know that, because there is no viable market for them. THey have to be marketted and sold to abled people just so that any money can be made of off them and so the people who actually need them will have access.

I think snuggies are the one example almost everyone knows. They were invented for wheelchair users (Do you have any idea how hard it is to get a coat on and off of someone in a wheelchair? Cause it’s PRETTY FUCKIN HARD.) But now everyone just acts like they’re some ~quirky, white people thing~ and not A PRODUCT DESIGNED TO MAKE PEOPLES DAY TO DAY LIVES 10000X EASIER.

But if at any point you were to take your head out of your own ass and go “Hey, who would a product like this benefit,” that would be really cool.

You should share this for people in DC and close to you!!

Black Community we have to be careful. Protect our Girls! Spread this! 

Finished my marker case and started playing with my raspberry pi sense HAT. Also, took a nap. I haven't felt this normal or OK in weeks.

The Psychosis Checklist

What is psychosis? Are you experiencing it? Psychosis can manifest in different ways, and this checklist can help you figure out if what you’re experiencing is indeed psychosis. One may use it to self-diagnose or as a worksheet to present to a doctor or therapist  or other medical professional and better communicate symptoms they are experiencing. All information is taken from the DSM-5.

In order to for your experience to be considered psychosis, you must experience ONE or more of the following:

Delusions

Hallucinations

Disorganized Thinking

__ / 3

Delusions Must check ONE or more of the following:

I experienced fixed beliefs which won’t change even when I am faced with contradicting evidence.

I am convinced an individual or group is going to harm me, even though I have no evidence they want to do so, and no reason to believe they do. (Exception: Many people who feel someone intends to harm them do have reason for doing so, but are gaslighted into believing they are instead delusional.)

I will believe certain gestures, comments, or environmental cues are directed at me, even once it’s proven to me they are not.

I believe I have exceptional abilities, wealth, or fame.

I believe someone is in love with me, even when they have told me they are not.

I believe a major catastrophe is going to occur, despite having no evidence or being presented with evidence disproving my belief.

I am preoccupied with the thought something is wrong with my body or organs, despite having no symptoms or having proof nothing is wrong with me.

I feel as if my thoughts are not my own, or that I am being controlled.

__ / 8

Symptoms MUST cause distress in social, occupational, or interpersonal functioning.

Hallucinations Must check ONE or more of the following:

I experience incredibly vivid experiences without an external stimulus.

I hear voices, whether familiar or unfamiliar, which are separate from my own thoughts.

I see things which are not really there, very clearly as if they are physically there.

__ / 3

Symptoms MUST only be present while the person is fully awake, and not right before going to bed or when just waking up. Hallucinating before and after sleep is quite normal.

Disorganized Thinking Must check ONE or more of the following:

I switch from one topic to another very quickly, and the topics are not related to each other at all.

My answers to questions are hardly related to the questions asked, or not related at all.

My speech is disorganized and it’s hard to understand me. (must be severe enough to impair communication, as disorganized speech is common in non-psychotic disorders)

Watch: Regular women and celebrities, many of whom have survived sexual assault or harassment, are banding together to tell Trump “It’s not okay”

In the cases of all the women who spoke out in the video, there was no justice. Their assaulters and harassers walked free because either nobody believed them or there was nothing they could do. The Trump tape was one of many final straws. "We’re not gonna take it any more,“ Amber Tamblyn said. “Like, for real, we’re not.”
