I Finally got Tumblr

Remi-Rix Jones | Queer Nonbinary 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ | she/they | Canadian 🇨🇦 | Paramed-ish: 99% trained, 0% licenced 🚑 | I was a Tumblr kid who never actually had Tumblr. Now I have Tumblr.

When I was younger I thought the black market was a physical place in the middle of a desert canyon somewhere, and the reason it was called that was because all the stalls used black fabric. I thought that human bones and brains in jars were sold there. I thought you could buy smuggled artifacts and stolen artwork from painters long dead. I thought that you could buy elephant ivory and endangered bird eggs. I thought that you could buy rhinoceros meat and wild chinchilla coats. I thought you could buy pirated copies of movies and hard drives full of government secrets. I kind of wanted to go, but I knew it was a terrible thing to ask. I wouldn’t have bought anything, I would have just liked to look.

Brœther, we had the same childhood.

He's also Sigmund Freud somehow, even if the appearance is just in a photo on the wall.

bugs is also elmer's neglected housewife, who spends the session crying into her handkerchief bemoaning that her fuddy duddy leaves her home all alone while he goes off to hunt wabbits

Can we please normalize asking a friend to brush your hair? I'm autistic and struggle with brushing my hair sometimes, so I'll end up avoiding it, and then it just gets worse.

This one time, my partner spent a solid hour detangling my hair for me. This was fairly early in our relationship, and I felt pretty embarrassed to even ask him. We're separated now.

It feels acceptable to ask a spouse to do this, but it feels weird to ask a friend. Since developing ME/CFS, I've gotten a lot better about asking for help, but it's still hard. Besides, you shouldn't need to be disabled to ask your friends for help!

It doesn't have to be a big deal either. Invite them over for a movie night, and ask them "while you're here, can you help me brush my hair?" You can offer to help them with something they find difficult but you find easy.

Normalize asking your friends for help.
