Metabolism has a part to play in weight loss, but there is no universal solution to boost metabolism and burn calories. To achieve and maintain healthy weight, healthy eating habits, regular physical activity, and supportive lifestyle changes are crucial. By prioritizing these habits and making sustainable changes, you can achieve your weight loss goals.

Just sos you knows, AO3 is down under a DDOS attack right now. They’ve been coming back in little blips and then disappearing again. It’s been several hours. (For reference, it’s currently 3 p.m. eastern, July 10, 2023.)

https://twitter.com/AO3_Status/status/1678468065070030856

The culprit (as with a few other DDOS attacks recently) is Anonymous Sudan, a group that is likely Russian, not Sudanese. The ‘reason’ they gave–that AO3 is “full of disgusting smuts and other LGBTQ+ and NSFW things,” is thin and probably not completely legit, though still legitimately concerning.

The AS claim: https://twitter.com/FalconFeedsio/status/1678397195039526912

Reporting on AS: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-06-28/anonymous-sudan-does-group-behind-microsoft-cyberattack-have-ties-to-russia (you can use archive.ph to get this one, 12ft doesn’t seem to work)

As noted here, https://twitter.com/honeyskeleton/status/1678449598703050769:

DDOS protection is expensive especially for a high traffic site like ao3. And it’s uniquely vulnerable as an independent site without ads or other corporate support. SPECIFICALLY targeted bc of its queer works and yet ppl will still complain every time they ask for donations lmao 

So, again, when AO3 comes back online, please don’t go hard with refreshing all your tabs. Please do remember to download fics you love early and often as  you continue in your whole ~reading journey~. And please do support AO3 through a dono or becoming a donating member, if it is possible for you to do so.

Also, he thinks Cocksuki is trying to mate with him because he's always fluffy ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I can’t even count how many times I’ve thought this lately

[beautifulnightmaregarden]

[beautifulnightmaregarden]

Things I feel on a nearly daily basis.

- Anger, emptiness, deep sadness, bitterness - Either feels too much or nothing at all - Decreased appetite most of the time and other times gets really hungry - Don’t feel like getting out of bed or want to curl up in a ball and hide from the world. - Procrastinating on things that I know I should do, but don’t have the motivation to do them. - Don’t want to talk about anything, much less my feelings to other people because I think they won’t understand, don’t know how to describe them, or feel like my tongue is tied or like there’s something holding me back. - Increased fear of the dark and things that might attack me if I close my eyes for even a moment when I’m trying to go to sleep. - Not wanting to take medication and even go days without taking morning medicine and delaying taking nighttime medicine. - Not sticking with one thing for very long even though I worked hard at achieving the thing I was working towards. - Feelings of loneliness, but also a sense where I don’t want to be around people even though I do want friendship and companionship.

A child: developes a mental illness, struggles with school, tries to seek help

Parents: How can you do this to me? You know how this makes me feel? Stop being so dramatic! Other kids have it way worse! How can you embarrass me like that??!!

A child, now adult: Still mentally ill, but has now learned to never open up

Parents: Hey sweetie 🥺 if there's anything going on 🥺🥺 you can open up to us!!! We're FaMiLy 🥺🥺💕💕💕
