#bad news that brings your whole week down kinda day #the kind of bad news you can’t bring up or else it’ll ruin everyone else’s mood kinda news #but I feel like I need to tell someone or it’s gonna tear me apart #my grandma is in the hospital and we don’t know how serious it is yet #it could be an easy fix or it could be bad we just don’t know #the waiting is the worst part when someone’s in the hospital #it always floors me #makes it hard to do anything #I’m praying it’s a fixable problem but we just don’t know yet #and I’m half a continent away so I can’t do anything #I just have to wait and I hate the waiting #I haven’t told any of my friends or classmates yet because I don’t wanna bring the whole room down #but it’s hard waiting for answers #it’s really hard #anyways sorry for rambling at you guys about my personal problems #I just needed to tell someone

today im thinking about malaria in ancient rome.

about the fact that P. falciparum (the most dangerous kind of malaria) was likely endemic at least from the 2nd century BC onward that Galen said semitertian fevers (P. falciparum infections) were more common in Rome than anywhere else in the Roman Empire that the most severe manifestations of P. falciparum (quotidian fevers + cerebral malaria) were most common in babies and young children, an epidemiological observation that indicates the transmission rate of P. falciparum was extremely high in Rome that Quintus Serenus said there was no Latin word for semitertian fevers (they used a transliteration of the Greek, 'hemitritaeos') because "no one, i think, could have named it in our language and mothers would not have wanted to"

#working on my thesis gonna bring down the mood of the whole department #but i feel like i have to honor them #and the thing about malaria that fucks me up is P. falciparum has been around for tens of thousands of years #its not a disease of agriculture like smallpox or of sanitary issues that come with civilization like typhoid #it predates agriculture its been found in the bodies of mummies from ancient egypt and skeletons from ancient greece and rome #there are species-specific plasmodium parasites for gorrillas chimpanzees and humans #which to me indicates there was a plasmodium parasite for every now lost hominid #malaria is the strongest recent evolutionary pressure on the human genome #upwards of 30% of people in some parts of the world are heterozygous for sickle cell anemia #or heterozygous for SE asian ovalocytosis #thus it was more evolutionarily advantageous for 2-3% of all children to die #so about 30% of people could be protected from severe malaria #these mutations take a long time to evolve. parasites take a long time to evolve #there are people who mourned their infants tens of thousands of years ago in languages we will never know with rituals we will never see #and i cant do anything about any of that but i can keep going to the lab every day and trying my best to figure it out #because so many generations of humans stretching back to before we were human could not

“The worst that can happen is they say no” well, for someone who has rejection sensitive dysphoria, THAT’S PRETTY FRICKIN BAD

#nerd out #nerd-out #adhd said it really is easier to beg for forgiveness than ask for permission #I didn’t do anything but I really hate asking for things if I have a feeling the answer will be no #I don’t want to make people upset and bring the mood down by saying something people don’t agree with or love #i was never really diagnosed with adhd but i think i relate to some of the stuff #i still take adhd meds tho bc it helps with the depression and anxiety :) #adhd #rejection sensitive disorder #rejection sensitive dysphoria #rejection sensitivity

i got into svt during ready to love era and i've felt since i've joined this fandom there's been so much negativity about everything. it kinda made me think that svt built such a good relationship with their fans that it became parasocial to the point that if a fan dislikes something then it makes them nasty and very upset despite taste and interests being subjective. i've been so annoyed with the immense and aggressive negativity since i joined being a carat. some can be so mean and then they'll hate on other carats for having a good time 😭

the sad thing is it wasn't always this bad in my experience. like I feel like it wasn't as bad in 2017-2018 when I first joined the fandom (though to be fair I also wasn't on Twitter then so that might make a difference lol). I feel like it's gotten worse as the fandom has gotten bigger and I do think to some extent that's unavoidable

but there are other factors as well, and I feel like to some extent you're right that the parasocial relationship could play a part. I feel like part of it is that fans conflate their personal wants with the wants of the members themselves and get mad when those wants aren't met when it's really not a big deal

for example, people being mad the jeonghan doesn't really go on variety shows individually bc they thought pledis was like, neglecting him or something. only for jeonghan to come out and say he doesn't like/feel comfortable making individual variety appearances and asked to not have those schedules. ppl don't complain about it as much since then, but there are a lot of other examples like that of ppl just assuming what a member wants or what's best for the group, usually just based on their own wants

but regardless of the reason, I'm sorry that's been your experience in the fandom ;-; I do think there are good pockets of the fandom, you just have to find them or carve one out for yourself. but I would also just like to encourage everyone to be aware of their own negativity in the fandom. it doesn't mean you can never have complaints, but we're all here to have fun at the end of the day, and I think everyone would have a better time if we focused a little bit more on the fun parts of being in this fandom 🙏

#melia.ask #anon #thats also why i try to not rant too much on this blog #especially because most of the time theres not anything any of us can do about it #so really all its accomplishing is bringing the mood down #sometimes i do cave and rant about shit but i try to keep it to a minimum and just talk shit to my friends or mom to vent lol #i also feel like its always been kind of true that carats are more mean to each other than other fandoms :/ #i mean i wish kpop fandom in general wasnt mean at all but it does kind of suck

Sorry, I have to say this :

While I find the scene where Chuuya does nothing to help Dazai with Fyodor's 'corpse' in mersault incredibly funny, I also need to point out that if it had been Dazai I would've been at least ten posts by now about how horrible of a partner he is and how he doesn't deserve Chuuya and always just manipulates people to get what he wants.

The hypocrisy is real and I needed to say it. Now, this isn't to say there wouldn't have been equally, if not more, positive posts that didn't take it that seriously, but the fact remains the same.

#not anything negative abt the scene itself #Chuuya said 'my work is done you go now' and I respect that #he also is probably the living embodiment of 'nakahara chuuya is so done' tag on ao3 #but yeah it's the people that annoy me more than anything #sorry for bringing the mood down I'll go now #bungou stray dogs #dazai osamu #nakahara chuuya

I want to believe it's just me but im kinda feeling like my friends r drifting apart and it makes me so sad

#i love them a lot. if it was an issue of just me n the horribly heavy life n health relatef stuff ive got going on #+ the fact they keep reaching to help but there's legitimately nothing they could do #n like im aware of how much it brings the mood down #im aware of how heavily it rests in their mind bc they genuinely care about me #but it's not a leap of logic to believe one can only take so much #god knows im well beyond mine lol at this point im only still around to see if anything at all changes for better for a change #anyways if it was that whats driving everyone apart I'd take it #like I wouldn't be opposed to taking one for the team and cutting contact. i love them too much to weight them down #but im also aware they would Not want this. or take it #and that this would make no one happy lol #so like. whats the answer. #it's not like i can just be brighter lol #personal #vent

how do you tell someone how you feel in the moment?? like how do you figure that out?? I just know I feel bad and I know I need help and I know they can help but I can't figure out or even begin to articulate how

#bo posting #alexythimia #maybe? I'm not very talkative and I feel like I'll bring your mood down #i think I'll just stay here? I'm afraid I'm just gonna overwhelm today idk how else to word that #these r the messages i sent when they asked if company would help #idk if this means something beyond what i said i cant #feel it. anything? it just feels bad i feel horrible

i don't know how popular granblue fantasy is in terms of an extensive rpc and i am not super familiar with its plot but duuuuude i'd love to stick a verse for it onto Uri

but I also feel so conflicted about adding another verse of any kind to Uri because i don't want things to feel too...crowded? idk if people have things against ocs that have too MANY verses idk it might just be a little insecurity talking-

#✧. ┊ᴍᴀʀᴋ ᴍy ᴡᴏʀᴅꜱ {ooc} #i guess... #negativity tw. #??? idk it's not super negative or anything but i don't wanna bring anyone's mood down LOL

Why do Christian families look at a full grown man with a fuckton of kids and go

"oh he abused and cheated on his wife whos the mother of those kids and was dying with cancer and then very shortly after she died moved his mistress into the home and erased all of the evidence of his past wife but we're excepting him and his mistress and happy for him because we want him to be "happy"and he's "family and family forgives and loves"

but then look at they're children who's like

"hey I haven't hurt anyone but Im queer"

and it's immediately "I can't believe you'd do this to us where is this coming from we don't except this this isn't what god or we want for you your not queer your confused we can't ever except this or be happy for you if you choose to go down that path you'll lose your family"

#huh funny how the quickest way to bring disowned isn't raping someone or cheating on your wife it's just saying hey i might like girls #evidence me (if i ever find out again after that shit)and two cousins and apartly an aunt who i never heard of it met and second cousin #funny how you can literally beat your wife or your siblings and people make excuses for you but thinking girls are cute is too much #Im in a bad mood everyday at this point i need to kill my emotion every time i tart feelin happy because it's just so i get let down harder #ah well bitching wont ever fix anything #everyone just forgets how aggressive he was #but it's ok ʘ⁠‿⁠ʘ because✨✨✨ forgiveness✨✨✨✨
