REBLOG IF YOU HAVE STRETCHMARKS

This way people can see they’re not alone. I have them and this would help me see that.

Though the jokes that "since gay pride month is over, july is now gay wrath month" are funny and all, it's important to remember that July is ACTUALLY Disability Pride Month and y'all should really be focused on boosting disabled voices and issues this month! For instance, the fact that marriage equality doesn't actually truly exist in the United States for disabled people, or the fact that disabled people are forced to live in poverty or lose their disability benefits, or the fact that 1 in 5 people with chronic pain end up sufferring from alcoholism or other addictions, or how accessibility is still a daily battle for all of us, or how there are active hate groups on places like reddit who try to "call out" those they see as "faking" their disabilities.

This July, boost disabled voices. Talk about the issues that our community faces. Call out ableism.

I’d watch a Jacob Wysocki travel show all the fuckijg time tbh.

Hopping on the trend to say give Jacob Wysocki a travel show on dropout.tv!!!!!

Get into the swing of spring with these DIY challenges!

Now that we are officially into spring, meaning parents are beginning to look for stand-out summer activities for their kids. We thought we’d step in and give you some ideas on how to stay inspired during time off from school.

Springtime is when kids can explore new activities that will allow them to be both stimulated  but also able to relax. Summer at DIY.org is going to be fun-filled and loaded with new challenges.

Here are some DIY challenges to keep an eye on during your school break:

1. Let’s kickstart with an easy one: collecting recycled materials. This is an environmentally-conscious challenge that will help children become more aware of the waste produced by all of us in our everyday lives. 

2. You can arrange an indoor garden. (Spoiler alert: You’ll get your hands dirty.) As you may know, the presence of plants in our living space makes us happier and more productive!

3. We welcome you to take a walk in the woods. The key to this challenge is to pay attention to  everything you see, hear, smell and even taste. Take us with you on a video journey and narrate all the senses that are stimulated by the world around you.

4. This challenge is quite literally in the sun! Simply take interesting photographs with a shadow as a subject – could be your shadow or others’.

5. A tipi is a cone-shaped shelter that historically uses animal skins and wooden poles, but modern tipis can be made with tarps, canvas, or bedsheets. Let’s build one! 

6. How about building a solar cooker this summer? It’s a lot easier (read: fun) than it sounds. All you need isa large enough cardboard box and aluminum foil.

Jorge, when he said the sirens wouldn’t be in Epic:

For anyone who needs to hear this.

A reminder to everyone:

If you’re hungry, you should eat. It’s okay. It’s nothing to feel guilty about.

It’s okay to live in a larger body. I promise. You can be healthy in a larger body. Buy clothes that fit your beautiful, perfect body and love that body. It loves you.

Are you craving a certain food? Carbs or ice cream or bananas or chocolate? Eat it. It’s fine. Your body wants it. Restricting your food and dieting makes your body want them more which leads to binging when makes you feel bad.

Move in a way you love. Walk and listen to books or swim or lift weights or dance or jump or play with your kids (or your friends kids! Or with a pet! Or alone!)

You don’t need a “cheat meal” or a “cheat day.” Eating is not a test. There’s nothing moral about it. You can’t cheat at it. Eat what you love.

You don’t have to be on a never ending quest to make your body smaller. Your body is worthy of love and care the way it is.
