#scrub my SKIN off

[rottengurlz]

I don’t know why I bite

#I’ve thought about making this everyday since I saw that one isle of dogs clip #in the bottom scene is when amari realizes everything he did #a scream ripping from his throat while hes trying to rip off his skin and scrub off any blood coating his skin #its the only way he could ever feel clean again #god please forgive me please forgive me please forgive me not again not again not again #nene i said id make a new amari post but i ended up ruining his life again sorry #i wish the sizing was a bit better between both pictures but if i stare at this any longer im gonna rip my eyes out #mysims #sims 4 edit #ts4 edit #the sims community #oc: amari

:-P

#i took an exam at 8.30 to 10. when the fuck home and got tattooed from 1 to like 5 #it was only like 2hrs of tattooing. mostly it was me having her redraw the lines a million times #the color is dark blue and i really like it. wasnt super painful bc i think i have pretty high pain tolerance #i could feel it most under my shoulder blade and a lil on the soft part of my inner elbow #glad i did it today bc i was feeling fucked up abt thr exam. bc the frustrating thing is that i think i could verbally explain the concepts #to u better than i articulated them in writing. idk grades dont really matter for me at this point but i still feel fucked up abt it #anyway. apparently markers stick really well to my skin bc i never go out in the sun lol #she had to scrub so hard and it would not come off with rubbing alcohol #unrelated

Share to save a dandruff-haver's sanity

i am making this post because all my life i have been told my dandruff was my fault for not washing my hair correctly and shamed for having "poor hygiene" as a result - this is probably where the bfrbs started tbh.

SO. There are two main types of dandruff!

Dry scalp flakes: these are white and itty bitty! you can probably solve this with a good hair and skincare routine. HOWEVER unless they are bothering you it is absolutely not necessary for any kind of health reason (afaik! disclaimer! i am not a doctor! this is not actionable medical advice nor should you take me anywhere near as seriously as a dermatologist). IS NOT CAUSED BY POOR HYGIENE.

Fungal dandruff: Bigger, yellowish, possibly oily/greasy flakes! Caused by your genetics going Oops All Yeast! Generally requires a prescription antifungal treatment from a dermatologist! ALSO NOT CAUSED BY POOR HYGIENE.

Either way, if you have dandruff, a dermatologist is the one you want to consult if it's bothering you! and frankly, even if it was a hygiene issue, nobody deserves to be shamed for that!!!!! especially considering that there are plenty of people who struggle to shower regularly due to circumstances beyond their control!

AND FOR CHRIST'S SAKE STOP SHAMING PEOPLE WITH DANDRUFF!!!!

#dandruff #byrd chirps #byrd's business #i am Big Mad about this #because ALL of my parents blamed me for my dandruff #and no matter what they tried it wouldn't go away #but they never thought to take me to a dermatologist for this SKIN issue #just assumed that we were doing something wrong #and i got called gross for having dandruff #and tbf it is kinda gross! but you don't call a literal child gross and say its their own fault #idk maybe my parents were just That Shitty and nobody else has this issue #but regardless. on the off chance that someone went through what i did: #i see u. you've done nothing wrong. you didn't fuck up in some way that makes you deserve to have dandruff #and by no means do you deserve to be shamed for it #certainly not to a degree where you feel like you have to cause yourself pain with scrubbing and picking and chemicals that don't even work #(which is what I've been doing) #dandruff havers ily and i am giving you a lil forehead kissie #dandruff shamers i am going to killing you with hammers

Question for people who are good at AO3:

Is there a way to force a search to ONLY look for your target pairing as the first listed relationship?

#babble tea (blacklist this for less chatter) #AO3 #I'm currently making a sour little face at my 'with acceptable exclusions' search #because fully a third of this is 'your OTP is four down as a beta pairing' #and I'm just like #'I am trying to replace the WIP I had to unsubscribe from because it sprung NOTP on me can I just have a new nice thing' #although if the answer is no it's not a hardship returning to rereading old favorites #and that's definitely safer #the problem with glomming on to characters and going 'just like me fr fr' #when you are arospec/acespec #is that when people make them uncomfortably allo you want to scrub off your skin for like 5 hours straight #last time I had a panic attack though so thank you to this author for leading with a note #so I didn't actually wind up doing the 'crying in the bathtub' thing A G A I N

#zeph posting #for context. i have a heart monitor thingy on. #and its fucking stuck to my chest. with adhesive #and it itches because mild skin irritation is normal and im autistic #and i want to fucking sob and claw it off of my chest #but that would mean i would have to scrub off adhesive and put a new one on in the same spot and thats worse

[meat-pvppet]

#cliffnotes/.txt #i have a couple i just always wear a tank top underneath #also now have get more used to the new scars bc ones like. right in the middle of my abdomen under my chest so its v noticeable #and got a few more scabs since bc i kept scratching at the skin around it bc the adhesive wouldnt come all the way off after washing #and i couldnt scrub harder either #bc id be going over the wound while it closed vs going around it w/ my nails

[iknowwhereyousleepatnight]

gonna be honest y’all winter break has been making me a massive bitch

#more specifically being trapped in this little house with all these people and these pets #i am seconds away from climbing the walls #i forgor how suffocating it is to be home while everyone else is #i need to move out as soon as i possibly can or i will Lose It #like ik my problems are my problems but i would appreciate if everyone could like wash their hands and not contaminate #everything because i can’t do everything and keeping my stuff nice and clean already takes so much effort #and just the thought of where their hands have been makes me want to scrub my skin off but i have already done #irreversible damage to enough of my skin to know that it doesn’t really help #i need to disinfect everything but they’d just ruin it again and again #they all think i’m the ridiculous one but no they are all fools everything i do is enlightened

[unorganisedalienrubbish]

For a While I was managing to change my pillow case every week and sheets every other week and recently I've been Incapable of that and idk Why. But I finally changed my sheets. That were full of crumbs and cat fur and cigarette & weed ash.

#personal; #did so bc i NEED to shower and my brain doesn't let me sleep on clean sheets if i'm not clean #but i know if i showered first i'd not change my sheets #so now i gotta collect my ass back together to take a hot ass shower bc i've not bathed in a week or so #and i'm stinky and have so.much dead skin to scrub off that's making me itchy #and then i can do my T #and be Exhausted #just remembered i have the phone interview with social security about my disability tomorrow and hoooo boy phone anxiety setting in

I think more people need to hear that not everyone needs to wash with soaps and cleansers (besides your hands which come into contact with more pathogens and also touch our eyes/mouths), water and a gentle scrub with your hands or a soft cloth is gonna be just fine most of the time, especially if you have dry or sensitive skin.

I find that when my pits get too stinky for just water and I have to use soap/cleanser on them, I'm more likely to get bo sooner and worse after, and I have to scrub them and use deodorant more between showers until everything resets.

nothing wrong with soap and cleansers but it really feels weird and like a marketing scam that they're treated like using them once or twice a day on your face and body is the default, when just washing with water makes more sense as a default and doesn't have the risk of causing sensitivities or damaging your skin barrier.

#the only default skincare routine that makes sense is washing gently with water #from there you can figure out if you need cleansers or moisturizers or whatever. #I have dry skin and eczema and occasional acne and using even the gentlest of cleansers has never done anything but aggravate these things #using a face cleanser really made my acne sooooo much worse when I tried to do it regularly for a bit #a gentle scrub with water really does get most of the gunk off #and you WANT some oil and dead skin cells left on your skin. that helps protect it.

I HATE being told to wash my face. It's never with good intentions.

‘wheatish’ ‘dusky’ STOP just say brown it won’t hurt u. it won’t i promise

#from my wonderful light skinned mother who still has a deeply ingrained bias towards #fair skin and just can’t accept that her daughter is dark #and also can’t ever equate dark to beautiful #anyway dark skin is so beautiful all skin tones are beautiful i grew up to realise that hope that anyone struggling with it can see their #beauty too ❤️ #horrifying how so much of the country is dark skinned and yet even there finding a foundation shade is so difficult #have to give the western makeup brands points for inclusivity seen more from them than i ever did from my own #also the way they just refuse to say brown. it’s so annoying. just SAY it it’s not a bad word please i beg of you #glad i didn’t grow up there or my relatives would have made me hate myself and my skin forever #all of them are so light skinned 😀 it’s just me and my dad 👍 #rmb when my grandma would scrub my skin w exfoliant every time we visited the country to try and scrub off my dark skin 😀 like the colour #was dirty 💀 #or the way my family thinks it’s a compliment to new parents when they tell them ‘your child reflects so much light 😍😍 hes so fair’ #or when they say oh u were so fair as a baby… you became darker 😬 #grew up in a country where the majority race has very fair skin and yet they never made me feel like my own race has 😐 #over sharing on tumblr yet again who cld i tell this to #took me so long. but dark skin is so beautiful and my heart goes out to everyone who is made to think otherwise #like. even as someone whose parents immigrated to another country #i keep hearing the nonsense from aunts and grandparents and paretsn and COUSINS 💀 #cant imagine how bad it would have been otherwise
