Your Cybertronians-work-like-working-dogs headcanon is so good, accurate, and valid. But now…who to apply it to? There are so many bots and so many different ways to apply this.

Everybody. 
Much to the frustration of medics whose jobs include exertion when they need to not be doing things like running around on a busted leg. Medics probably keep a stock of Things To Do on hand to keep their patients from complaining even more.

normalize polyamorous people having families and raising children together. destroy the idea that the nuclear family is the default, that it’s the best option for everyone, that it’s the only option that “counts” and that any other kind of family is automatically unhealthy and ‘bad’.

Also intimate friend groups and communities and other non-monogamous family structures that aren’t specifically polyamorous.

if your gf/bf has anxiety u need to be fuckin patient lmao don’t freak out on them because it’ll make it so much worse

Also just a reminder that anxiety doesn’t always present as a rocking-in-the-corner-uncontrollably-crying episode of paranoia or despair, it can also present as:

  • Agitation or short temper, lack of patience
  • Insomnia
  • Upset stomach
  • Repetitive motions, redoing things you’ve already done, obsessing over specific things
  • Physical tenseness (back and shoulder pains are VERY common)
  • Feelings of physical weakness and exhaustion

P l e a s e  take the time to understand how your partners experiences anxiety and do some homework on how you can best help them. While we have a responsibility to communicate our needs, it is so massively helpful and comforting when our partners put effort in to understand us and understand how they can effectively assist us in episodes when we might not be able to clearly convey our needs in the moment.

Oh, by the way, all of those except the obsession can also be symptoms of various blood pressure problems. It’s worth looking up “poor man’s tilt table test” and checking your related person, all you need is a blood pressure cuff and like 15 minutes. Basically you lay down for a bit and see if your blood pressure does anything, then stand up, hold still, and check your blood pressure every few minutes to see if it does anything new. 

My breasts hurt. Any idea why?

Sometimes that happens in the general vicinity of your period, or while you’re growing. If it keeps happening but only during your period, it’s probably OK but is worth mentioning at your next doctor’s appointment. If it happens nowhere near your period, unpredictably, or intermittently, and keeps happening, you may want to see a doctor specifically about that. 
Also, you may want to Google medical questions. This is just what I know off the top of my head in the general “maintenance of squishy flesh body” category.

Sims 3 is on Steam for like $3 now, so I’m gonna try playing that. Let’s see what happens.

Made randomized Sims. Made one of them a bookworm who likes the outdoors and fishing, made the other one a gardener. Gardener lady, after going to the supermarket, decided to go out back and go dumpster diving. Got seeds! Also somehow got furniture. Fishing dude fished until dark and then got scared because it was dark.

Some Astyanax jordani we saw while being in France. Super interesting fish!

July ‘18

These are a variant of Mexican tetra that were originally discovered in a cave. They’re born with eyes, but if raised in the dark, their eyes scale over and become useless. They actually make good aquarium fish! Just not with other fish, as they bite anything they run into in case it’s food and they’re a bit too bitey. They also move a bit oddly because they’re completely blind, but they don’t seem to realize.
