batman: shadow of the bat #0
[ID: a flashback of the outside of Wayne Manor at night. A narration box (unrelated to the scene) reads, “Ya think he's got a guardian angel, or somethin'?” Inside the manor, Leslie Thompkins and Alfred Pennyworth are talking in regards of young Bruce Wayne. They sit in a magnificent library at a small table as Bruce sits at his own desk that's across the room and has his face buried in a book. Alfred reassures her, “— Worried about him, Doctor Thompkins? I can assure you there's no need! Master Bruce has the manor to live in — myself to look after him — the best education money can buy—”. Leslie cuts Alfred off before he can continue rambling out more examples. She tells him, “It's what he doesn't have that bothers me, Alfred. Friends — hobbies — the kind of life a normal teenager looks forward to. He spends all his time in the gym, or here reading. I don't think he ever recovered from his parents' death.” We're shown Bruce, now in a close-up and able to see the book he's reading is titled ‘Lip Reading For Beginners’. Bruce peers over the book intensely as Leslie continues to express her rightful concern, “He almost seems obsessed!” END ID]

hi i have a bit of an odd question and im so sorry if it comes off as rude at all!
ive seen a lot of your posts about canes, i have hEDS and chronic pain and im trying to convice my mom and my doctor to let me have a mobility aid. my mom is very adamant that i dont need a cane because i dont have balance issues, but my knees and ankles are pretty much always aching. i was just wondering if you think a cane would help with chronic pain or if i should look into other aids?
Canes can help chronic pain, they are not guaranteed to help you specifically
You can get a cane for ~$30 at most stores and try it out
A physical therapist and/or a specialist in rheum will most likely know more than your PCP about your specific pain and situation
Parents often don't want to admit their kids have health problems
I wish you luck
I won't be answering any more asks about mobility aids.
This is nothing about you specifically, you were not rude, I just get a lot of questions like this in my inbox. It becomes draining to get so many asks with people's personal vents about their medical issues or religious trauma or the homophobic situations they're living in.
While I would love if I could help people, I am not a doctor. I am not a therapist, I am not a social worker. I'm just a random artist on the internet who has EDS and is barely getting by myself.
I prefer to keep my blog about my art and about my work, not about my disability. It is relevant to my work, of course, and discussing my conditions in vague terms in how they relate to themes present in my work is more than okay, but I prefer this space to be dedicated to my work and getting to engage with my readers through my stories.
Personal information about my pain, my medications, my tests my doctors and my trauma are not things I want to make public.
Thank you for understanding.

johnny cage who...
aka a mini '[char] who...' fic about my HOH johnny cage headcanon
johnny cage who lost his hearing at a young age, and despite using hearing aids most of the time, put a lot of effort into learning ASL, and refused to talk to any family members who wouldn't learn ASL for him.
johnny cage who, at ten years old, would sign "sorry, it's just so hard to read lips." to any family members who'd bitch and moan about how hard ASL was for them.
johnny cage who, perfectly remembers the gunshots and explosions that made his hearing go. (the drawbacks of having an extremely patriotic family who goes hard on the fourth of july.)
johnny cage who, sees kenshi lose his vision, and feels his heart stop. because he understands. he knows how it feels to have a whole sense taken from you.
johnny cage who leads him around, feeling hilariously like a guide dog.
johnny cage who 'unintentionally' stomps on the feet of people who patronize kenshi
johnny cage who feels kenshi trace his face, when the other man thinks he's still asleep, and takes great pains to keep his breathing level while the man commits every curve of his face to kinetic memory.
johnny cage who purposefully makes a little extra noise every time he walks into a room, so he doesn't scare kenshi.
johnny cage who, when he does finally kiss kenshi, touches his face first, tracing his thumb over the other man's lips and warns him before he dives in.

This is... Once again... Another of my sort of 03 redesigns that gained too much of their own mojo to be 03 redesigns anymore and they're their own thing now

More Disability stuff about Fizzarolli from my brain because I love him and I'm Disabled:
I wonder if Fizz is Deaf (and either lip reads to some extent while he does hear some sound, or has some sort of prosthetics for his hearing, a la cochlear implants for imps).
The kid he signs with in the audience at his performance has cracked horns, and I wonder if that means that imps hear with their horns? But just like with humans, there are a number of different sources of deafness, even just with different ways the ears can be injured. So if that's the case with imp horns, they can probably still have injuries to their horns without hearing loss (or variations of total to partial hearing loss).
And then there's the fact that Fizz isn't bothered by airhorns and just thinks they're fun lmfao.
If Fizz had no hearing loss from the fire, I think it's likely he still had a personal reason to learn sign language after the fire: we know in canon that the fire damaged his vocal cords. Maybe he lost use of his voice almost completely, and eventually had speech therapy to start talking again, but he learned sign language in the meantime while his throat was recovering from the burns.
Buuut. If he grew up performing in a circus where at least Blitzø's family lived in a circus tent, could his parents (?where are they? lol) afford speech therapy in addition to the probably massive hospital bills they were slammed with??
Since it seems like Fizz is fluent in signing, it's very likely signing was his means of communication for years, so he didn't speak at all with his voice until his body recovered from the burns as much as it possibly could.
The fact that he spent his birthday at the circus around Blitzø's dad makes me think Fizz is either an orphan or his parents just weren't around (either they couldn't be there or they just flat out didn't care about him).
So, if Blitzø wasn't around for Fizz after the fire, and his parents are fuck all, who did Fizz even have to talk to while he was recovering? Hopefully his sign language teacher, at least. Or anyone else in the hospital who happened to sign, or who weren't impatient audist assholes and talked to Fizz by reading notes from him.
It honestly just gets worse the more I think about it, because if Hell is just debatably worse than Earth, it must be just about as ableist and exclusionary, and Fizz was pretty much all alone.
And that makes all the more sense with Fizz's obsession with pleasing Mammon: the illusion of purpose, of adoration. The lie that fame tells of never having to be alone again.

I am going to redesign all of the Camp Cretaceous kids teenage versions. They were at best Odd and at worst Ben /LH
Starting with the number one most chilling of them all, I have redesigned 17-ish year old Ben to not strike fear into my heart.

GOOD MORNING I MADE MY HEARING AIDS PLAY TAYLOR SWIFT
(I work at a hospital so I can’t like. Have earbuds in. But my hearing aids do connect to my phone… the function is for people who can’t hear phone audio (I can) but the result is I can hear conversation and Taylor at the SAME TIME)
this is peak swiftieism I genuinely think you out-swiftied all of us with this

Huh, Starscream in G1 is also probably painfully young to MTMTE Megatron. He's like the Cybertronian equivalent of 25 and still very energetic and not as messed up.
Oh goodness he'd be young to everyone but Tailgate.
MTMTE Megatron: He's a toddler!
G1 Starscream: I don't want to hear it old man just because you're rusted scrapheap that needs to be recycled! I have ideas and plans!
Rodimus: Holy shit.
Ratchet: That's a child.
Drift: I am having conflicted feelings.
First Aid: I think I like power?
Oh in general the g1 mecha are a lot younger than their mtmte counterparts, iicr? So it's like. They're all so damn young and wacky
G1 Starscream's prepared to roast the living hell out of everyone, and it will constantly surprise them. Don't even get me started on all the things he'll say once we give him the ability to swear. I feel like the LL mecha would actually start to find this flying menace's energy dare I say endearing?

Thinking thinking 🤔🤔
What scar do you think each of the girls would have? I'm doing doodles and I was thinking about how they'd collect scars as they got older and such and I'm curious what attacks y'all think should of left a mark

Some of y’all are getting too comfortable on the internet. Show some restraint, please, for the love of fuck. AIDS jokes and other stuff (iykyk) are very clearly not accepted within this community and you shouldn’t expect anything but a negative reaction towards it. Either because it’s a real issue that people suffer with, or because it’s just gross and no one wanted to read that with their own two godforsaken eyes (the latter, not the former).
I mean it when I say every day this fandom strays farther away from the light of god (or whatever entity exists). It makes it incredibly difficult to come back and make content when you know in the back of your mind, there’s this newly added weight to being associated with it. So for the love of god or whatever you do or don’t believe in, at least fucking think before you post.

i think a lot of yall r misunderstanding what happened in that un warehouse in gaza. its not that the un wasnt giving out Any food at all, its that they were trying to give it out in an organized way, which is hard enough even w/out the threat of airstrikes. the people who broke into the warehouse did it because the frustration and desperation from going so long w/out any basic needs drove them to get it themselves. and this isnt something to blame on the palestinians. anyone faced w/ the same situation likely wouldv done the same thing. and its not quite right blaming the un either. im sure their system wasnt perfect, but nothing is when youv got so little supplies to hand out to so many people who need it. lets not forget that the un workers are risking their lives there as well. no, the blame lies soley on israel, as it always as. israel is the one who has cut gaza off from any and all supplies. israel is the one whos the most opposed to aid getting into the gaza. and theyr the ones who have dropped bombs on some of the few places that have gotten supplies.
yes, the un could do more. yes, the un is far from the best. but maybe dont go calling for one of the only organizations actually bringing aid into gaza to be disbanded just because u saw some angry tweets.

when I walk somewhere without one of my usual mobility aids and someone I know (even vaguely) who knows I have a chronic illness says "oh is this a good sign?! are you improving?!?!!!" please please please shut up. I'm fighting so hard against the urge to strangle you. i WISH I had my cane so I could smack you with it. I'm having an okay pain day and now I regret not bringing my mobility aids just so you'd not say the most insensitive thing you could think of. I'm NOT improving. I CAN'T improve. I'm chronically ill and it hurts when you get excited that I can walk "normally." I get it to some extent, you don't want me to be in pain, because, you see, I *also* don't want me to be in pain. but I'm never recovering. I'll never be healed. I will be in pain for the rest of my life. I don't need you making it worse with your ignorant comments.
*abled people can fuck right off this post. do not try to explain. do not defend yourself. do not derail.*
