#yay genetics

[derpinette]

i have a weird relationship with weight because i hated eating more than anything the moment i was ready for solids ( i hate chewing with my entire life always have & will ) which made me underweight for most of my life ( to this day ) & during late primary-middle school this made me actively suicidal because i felt like something was wrong with my sex because i just was not developing whatsoever prompting me to have a years long phase of trying to gain weight in any way i could ( #EPICFAIL by the way ) & i was already insecure but i felt seriously so unforgivably ugly after bullying not just at school but by adults of my entourage. but then i did in my late 15s which prompted the pendulum to swing in the other direction & suddenly i FREAKED OUT & thought well being skinny is pretty much all i have & know myself to be & clearly it is not going to last forever so i Better preserve it i was delusional about how skinny i thought i was actually i look stumpy & weird i have to prove myself. But now i am normal again kind of

#also i used to get beaten to finish my food nearly daily & it would take me forever to do that like literally hours with no exaggeration #just made me hate eating even more. now my technique is eating as fast as possible before i even realize how overwhelming #the sensory experience is & i can just be done with it VS the pain&dread of eating slowly -> disgust of Everything+hyperawareness #eating tightens my muscles like i hate it so fucking much catching the food putting it in my mouth CHEWING swallowing #what a damn chore #so i always liked cheese it was my “safe food” pretty much the only thing i liked #i even hated the foods autists usually like like fries & fried chicken meatballs ETC. HATED. #i was/am more of a soup & turning all my food into varieties of Slop kind of girl nothing hard for me please... #i experienced middle school during the like ♯Thick era of the world which was honestly a good thing like for The Populace #but i felt like killing myself because i felt like an unforgivable fugly genetic failure & people did not hesitate to let me know #anyway either way i would be unhappy caus if i did gain weight during puberty i would have a meltdown about all the Changes #so i feel content for the time being about only losing the fat in my face & getting age appropriate wrinkles really #trying to enjoy the privilege of thinness while i have it because it will not last forever 0_0 but that should not matter anyway... #the privilege of thinness: being way uglier than others & constantly looking like a gibbon dying of disease + no energy or strength ever #JK people are much MUCH nicer to thin people & they do things for me on account of looking physically incapable so um yay i guess #light at the end of the tunnel that is very significant in the grand scheme of things socially. ♯CountingMyBlessings #also i was raised on ♯HAES tumblr from 2014-2018 i truly believed in that & was so damn envious i was not curvy & beautiful LOL #so i never hated overweight people really i think for the most part the SJW tumblr values stuck with me #but now i know it depends on your base frame & genetics & there is no guarantee to what you choose to do (naturally) acceptance is peace #sorry for the gigantic Arse post i just needed to get that off my chest for a long time. not on here specifically just in general #oh & i am a ♯Grignoteuse but grignoter (grazing) is different from eating in my mind&body #& my insecurity was not a result of wanting to fit in really but kind of in the sense that i wanted people to stop berating me for my looks #like body wise only & also not understanding why every other girl looked like a girl blossoming into a woman #& i looked like i was transitioning to Malnourished (unsexed) Ape made worse by bein GNC.& like the need for control later on & erthang ETC

i don't get biology at alll T-T

#writing essay questions (yay writing <3) for my biology course but how am i supposed to know what genetic code is or what it has to do #with chromosomes and cells and do they want me to talk about DNA or RNA and do i have to go through every type of RNA??

Being an anthropology major is so fun. I learned a bit ago that light skin did not result from Homo Sapiens moving to Europe. The people who made those cave paintings had wavy hair, dark skin, and blue eyes. We got white skin when, wait for it, we started to settle down and do agriculture and fucked up our nourishment. We didn't get enough vitamin D in our diets and had to synthesize it. White people are not only a mutation. They came around cuz we were bad at growing healthy food.

#agriculture #anthropology #race isn't real #skin color #mutations #genetics #yay genetics special interest mixed with anthro special interest #fun facts

I joke about having Old Man energy all the time, but! Oh! I apparently need to do physical therapy for my knees.

#<- tbf the orthopedist said it was a pretty common issue w/ adolescents and he said... hm... #it was like... “your knees have track very smoothly" or sm. #it was a compliment and man wow knee drs complimenting your knees... it was better than when the dentist said i brush well :D #i feel like it was a word with an a- and it was like... to do with movement but along a correct track/path or sm. idk. like. #my knees glide along their hinges well yk? but alas the muscles around my knees are weird or something. tbh it's way better than i thought #bc i have like... leg allignment issues in general bc genetics yay but. HA the knee dr said i had smooth knees. #idk how to tag this #dante dicit #might delete

Filling out a pain scale at the PT office and realized I may have said something wrong when I cheerily asked the receptionist what level she would consider a “not quite at crying, but you can’t have a proper conversation because the pain is so distracting.” and she looked very concerned.

#ghost posts #she said 7-8 and then I marked a 6 for the day lol #put 8-9 for worst of the month bc had a blinding pain episode #which sucks but also deserved it for trying to lift boxes #always have trouble w pain scales bc I don’t know what each number really means #I’ve been on 9-10 pain though and that ain’t fun #best is usually a 2 #also learned I probably have high blood pressure! yay! thanks genetics!

[lith-myathar]

Some changes have been made! Wanted her to look like even more of weird little runt

#one human eye and one demonic yay fucky genetics #and spots!! freckles i guess but i always wanted the spots from nwn2 back

MCU really said, “We’ll give you Ms Marvel but we also won’t give you Ms Marvel.”

#anti mcu #love how we feared they'd do the djinn stuff #but instead they went 'nah how about mutant instead' #just- use- the-inhumans #like there is no way they can pull a inhumans twist now #not with playing the x-men theme while saying something is wrong with her genetics #like this is what happens when mcu rushes into introducing characters but not arcs before them like humans being exposed to mists #also yay....x-men being added to this dumpster fire of the mcu #cant wait to see how they'll be ruined #already disrespected xavier by having over-powered wanda kill him

The curse is gone! 😁😁😁

#ts4 patch #yay #toddlers genetics are no longer the same #I am so happy #too bad I aged up Luna before I updated #oh well

one thing about cleaning your “depression room” is not knowing where to put everything

#i just want to go buy new decor now #i’m somewhat of a hoarder (yay genetics) so i’m throwing out a lot of shit #i hope i stick with the cleaning this time around #it’s a long process but it’s doable 😮‍💨

[mossflower]

anyway i’m not dying!! i forgot that i need to take iron tablets and then wondered why i felt dizzy and tired all the time

#it’s genetic my mum has really low iron levels and spent like 15 years anaemic before anyone realised #and now i’ve inherited that!! yay!! #unfortunately i am terrible at remembering to take tablets regularly #i spent most of this summer dying because i forgot that antihistamines exist and i have hayfever #and then i ran out of iron tablets around october and just. forgot to buy more #i would be the healthiest bitch alive if i just had the kind of memory that was actually useful in the real world instead of academic stuff #it’s quite funny really. you read down the list of anaemia symptoms and it’s just. me. pale skin tiredness headaches #i didn’t know shortness of breath was a symptom but i get that too!! #morganposting

GUYS!!! I LEARNT SOMETHING NEW TODAY!!!!

Well....

So normally the helix and antihelix part of the pinna of our ear are separate. But apparently are fused in a variety of people and it is called 'Mozart ears'!!! ( And obviously Mozart had such ears therefore the term was coined)

#Mozart #mozart ears #science #genetics #also this gave me a reason to use this template so yay me! #meme #I'm gen z #finally!! #ent

i would like to thank everyone who managed to traumatize me to the point i developed a whole ass personality disorder.

specifically the neighborhood kids who relentlessly tormented me. physically and emotionally.

the girls i went to k-8 with. yes. every. single. one. of. you.

that one guy who asked me out as a joke in the 7th grade.

my family. you know what you did.

the worst thing is. these people will never know how badly they fucked me up. i was twisted and warped by the world until i became someone i was never meant to be.

fuck you. fuck each and every one of you. i hope you get what you deserve.

#i think im gonna be really angry about this for a while #the fact that #bpd #is something that happens to you #its not inherently genetic #its something people do to you #i just got an official diagnosis #i had a good idea #but this makes it a lot more real #i have more processing to do #yay

A tiny little bit more facial hair!!!

#we already had some before going on t. like a bunch of thick black hair on our chin for like. 5-6 years now. that also got more over time #and a very faint moustache that started being quite noticable a bit over a year ago #but i think our moustache is a little more visible on the edges now #and we have very random patches of somewhat visible hair a little away from our mouth on both sides #also a little under our jaw. all the way in the back #which. yay #also some of our chin hair looks almost blond which is strange. like. for some reason some of the hairs are growing out very light #especially compared to the parts that have been there before. maybe not exactly blond. the yellowish tone might be the lighting #but it's really light. which is incredibly strange because both my parents have dark hair. i have dark hair everywhere else #this is fascinating. i would love to look at my fucking genes because what #not all that relevant. i just find that weird. almost similar to that one white hair that keeps growing and i only find it when it's already #really long and it's so weird. why does that keep happening #and the thing is. i know beards can have different colors from head hair because genetics but that's a little much. no #but also woo!! facial hair!! #it hasn't even been 2 weeks yet #-franz

[fly-sky-high-09]

Okay, thankfully dad's heart issues aren't that bad and it's just something that's coming with age so I don't have to worry about him as much (aside from his lungs due to him smoking his whole life basically...)

#whether it is or not genetics on mom's side is yet left to be seen #because majority of her side of the family suffered from heart problems #if it turns out they are I'll have to go do bunch of checkups too so yay

[dinopepitah]

I may be hypertense

#my head HURTS #why do genetics do whis to me. laughing and crying while writting this/hj #im okay now but 28 celsius made me have 140 in histolic pressure. i dont remember the diastolic one #127 now!! yay :'D /pos #TT.text

Due to a combination of Jurassic Park and my parents getting creative when it came to explaining where my baby sister came from, I have had a decent knowledge of heredity, genetics, and chromosomes since before I could read. My parents found a fairly comprehensive children's biology encyclopedia that had pretty good illustrations.

There is a distinct possibility that this isn't normal. Still, it distracted me from more awkward questions and I had a head start by the time that kind of thing was actually taught in school. eleven years later.

#creative parenting #thinking about this because I shouldn't be able to follow the genetic engineering side of YouTube #on paper I have only taken one bio class ever #yay informal education
