Agreed. Add on- pillowcases that have been embroidered, to represent 2 things:
1- the sheer lack of sleep š

Epilepticon Day 2 prompt
Epilepsy awareness month is sandwiched right in between Halloween and Christmas, two of the most widely decorated for holidays (at least in the US). If epilepsy awareness month had traditional decorations, what do you think they should/would be?
This ^^
PSA from Blobby. Something we should talk about more ā¤ļø
ā ļøIMPORTANT NOTICE FOR ANYONE PHOTOSENSITVE-ā ļø
If your planning on seeing the new film, House of Gucci, BE WARNED. There are several times in the film in which strobe lights or light effects are used in the films that might set of your epilepsy, also,
ā ļøTHERE IS NO WARNING AT THE START OF THE FILM. ā ļø
Please, heed this warning if you are considering seeing this film, one of the first strobe scenes comes on extremely early in the film, with basically no warning!
Stay safe out there my epilepsy nerds!
If you're an archaeologist* and have a Tumblr, reblog this or sound off in the comments! I figured it's high time we put together a directory of sorts.
*for our purposes, archaeologist can mean someone who has or is working on a degree in archaeology, you don't necessarily have to be currently practicing. If you have a blog that is specifically archaeology focused, include that and what your specialty is!
Hey guys! So I donāt know if anyone will see this or care, but this is my Fanfiction account, it would mean a lot if you would go check it out! Or maybe go and request something? I really want to improve on my fanfic writing skills and as an avid fanfic reader it would be amazing to be able to become part of the community who writes Fanfiction!
*Insert drumroll here* I DID IT!!
My first ever fanfiction has been completed and is currently up and posted (link here-https://www.tumblr.com/blog/forthemasses1789) I am so excited that I got it done earlier than expected and I am so proud of the work I did! Here's to hoping it does well!
And to those who say, but second hand books and read them, what about the one who buys a second hand book, reads it, thinks wow how awesome is this i need to find more and starts supporting JK not knowing what an terf asshole she is.
You are still perpetuating the fandom.
It does make me wonder if she was a homophobe, racist, facist etc whether her āfansā would still be like - but you can support the art but not the artistā She isnt like Lovecraft who everyone knows he was a racist bigot. He is dead, his work is known for itās time but itās not affecting current policy, like JK Rowlings work IS.
The UK anti trans bills that came in were also a direct result of HER LOBBYING PARLIMENT.

If it makes any of you feel better, Donald Trump will have an uphill battle to change the constitution. He will need:
-2/3 of Senators (60)
-2/3 of the House of Representatives (290)
-3/4 of the states (38)
In 2026, 33 senate seats will be up for grabs, and weāll be able to vote for people who are against Trump and his ideals.
Breathe and remain hopeful because itās not over. We can still fight and make Trumpās last four years hell.
Today, I was out with my nan, eventually we got to the discussion of me getting a job. My mum doesnāt want me to get a job until 3 months into the school year because Iām doing VCE history in yr 10. I spoke about how ill have to look for an employer who doesnāt care about my epilepsy, which is going to be a bit difficult because there are so many teens looking for jobs rn, and Iām pretty sure an employer is going to choose a non-epileptic person rather than me. I made a comment about how crappy it is having all your friends work and you being the only one not working, my nan then proceeded to lecture me about āhow itās just the way it is, and that itās like your pop, he has PTSD, but he canāt do anything about it.ā
Iām so sick of all these people, more specifically adults, talking to me and lecturing me and telling me off when it comes to my epilepsy like they know what Iām going through, like they understand. They can sympathise sure, but only on a certain level, their understanding doesnāt go as deep as mine does, and Iām so sick of them pretending that they have that understanding.
And itās not just the adults in my life that do it, so do my friends. They try to understand, they try to say things to support me when Iām anxious to the lead up of a hospital appointment. They donāt understand that this hospital appointment could literallly change the way my life is operating, it could change everything. They donāt know that anxiety of whether this hospital appointment is going to be the one when they tell you that your never going to come off your meds. They donāt know the utter disappointment and regret that you feel when you come to consciouness after a seizure and realise what happened. They donāt understand that gut wrenching fear that you feel coming out of a seizure, on the floor, limbs sore, nauseous, with an excruciating headache not having a clue what happened or where you are.
Being a teenager is overwhelming. Being a teenager with a chronic illness who constantly lives in fear of having a seizure while also dealing with the crappy people who tease you for it or force harmful stereotypes on you is a whole other level.
The point of this post is that Iām so sick of people pretending to know what Iām going through, Iām so sick of it that it makes me want to scream. And Iām so sick of having epilepsy.
