So, It Begins.

STOP DOING THIS IN INJURY FICS!!

Bleeding:

Blood is warm. if blood is cold, you’re really fucking feverish or the person is dead. it’s only sticky after it coagulates.

It smells! like iron, obv, but very metallic. heavy blood loss has a really potent smell, someone will notice.

Unless in a state of shock or fight-flight mode, a character will know they’re bleeding. stop with the ‘i didn’t even feel it’ yeah you did. drowsiness, confusion, pale complexion, nausea, clumsiness, and memory loss are symptoms to include.

blood flow ebbs. sometimes it’s really gushin’, other times it’s a trickle. could be the same wound at different points.

it’s slow. use this to your advantage! more sad writer times hehehe.

Stab wounds:

I have been mildly impaled with rebar on an occasion, so let me explain from experience. being stabbed is bizarre af. your body is soft. you can squish it, feel it jiggle when you move. whatever just stabbed you? not jiggly. it feels stiff and numb after the pain fades. often, stab wounds lead to nerve damage. hands, arms, feet, neck, all have more motor nerve clusters than the torso. fingers may go numb or useless if a tendon is nicked.

also, bleeding takes FOREVER to stop, as mentioned above.

if the wound has an exit wound, like a bullet clean through or a spear through the whole limb, DONT REMOVE THE OBJECT. character will die. leave it, bandage around it. could be a good opportunity for some touchy touchy :)

whump writers - good opportunity for caretaker angst and fluff w/ trying to manhandle whumpee into a good position to access both sites

Concussion:

despite the amnesia and confusion, people ain’t that articulate. even if they’re mumbling about how much they love (person) - if that’s ur trope - or a secret, it’s gonna make no sense. garbled nonsense, no full sentences, just a coupla words here and there.

if the concussion is mild, they’re gonna feel fine. until….bam! out like a light. kinda funny to witness, but also a good time for some caretaking fluff.

Fever:

you die at 110F. no 'oh no his fever is 120F!! ahhh!“ no his fever is 0F because he’s fucking dead. you lose consciousness around 103, sometimes less if it’s a child. brain damage occurs at over 104.

ACTUAL SYMPTOMS:

sluggishness

seizures (severe)

inability to speak clearly

feeling chilly/shivering

nausea

pain

delirium

symptoms increase as fever rises. slow build that secret sickness! feverish people can be irritable, maybe a bit of sass followed by some hurt/comfort. never hurt anybody.

ALSO about fevers - they absolutely can cause hallucinations. Sometimes these alter memory and future memory processing. they're scary shit guys.

fevers are a big deal! bad shit can happen! milk that till its dry (chill out) and get some good hurt/comfort whumpee shit.

keep writing u sadistic nerds xox love you

ALSO I FORGOT LEMME ADD ON:

YOU DIE AT 85F

sorry I forgot. at that point for a sustained period of time you're too cold to survive.

pt 2

also please stop traumadumping in the notes/tags, that's not the point of this post. it's really upsetting to see on my feed, so i'm muting the notifs for this post. if you have a question about this post, dm me, but i don't want a constant influx of traumatic stories. xox

:C

I’m so fucking sick of AI

the emotion i just experienced is kind of indescribable

The Australian Ballet is doing Alice in Wonderland again and on one hand I’ve seen it before, and on the other, their Queen of Hearts has my favourite costume in anything every

@crossoverdanuary Day 2, sorry about late posting day 1

"He was so tired, he didn't know what happened but he really wanted to sleep. Afterall, he felt safe."

V2 at night

Upon the forming of the Justice League: Dark, the call logs are checked for anything that needed to be looked into and-...

John was freaking out. Within the call logs he had found over a dozen different children across the world crying for help. In Paris a magic villain that preyed on emotions, in Illanois a CHILD that was constantly fighting interdimentional beings, an Oregon town that had such a high density of magical beings that there were calls listed nearly every third day, until one by one many of them stopped calling. Great. Now he has to go figure out how to recruit or help a bunch of talented kids.

John's first stop was the place they had received the most calls from, that were stupidly ignore because of the lack of magical expertise, Gravity Falls, Oregon.

We Became Heroes Because You Didn't

The Justice League don't specialize in much. If you ask them, they'd say otherwise. Unless they're one of the Bats, because they acknowledge that, especially with magic. They hate it, but they have connections and will at least ask for more details to deal with the situation at hand. Though they'll need proof.

That's the thing really. Proof. Because how are you going to get proof of something if everything gets repaired by the end? Or maybe you're the villain here according to the public. Or maybe everything you say is just plain crazy that nobody even knows what's going on from the start!

It was only when another group was formed when everything became clear. They were frowned upon, unknown, spoke nonsense, and never asked for help. They were the survivors that played hero. They were the shadowed version of the Justice League.

They were Justice League: Dark

A fanfic (or multiple small ones grouped together?) that isn't really about them joining forces, but more about the discovery of more dangerous territory that's being handled by kids/teens. Lift some weight for these kids. They really want a safe net by now in their hero careers.

Like- maybe a few of these wouldn't be the JL's fault. Maybe it was the government (at least for the US). Like Danny Phantom and Gravity Falls mentions the government, maybe they blocked off those regions from outside connections.

I feel like it would be funny if maybe Constantine just ends up collecting kids like Batman with his.

They're just kids! Itty bitty toddlers. It's supposed to be our job to take care o' that shit, ain't it?

And JLD now has a bunch of young professionals cause what the fuck, kid. Why do you know this??? Ya know? Maybe the JL just randomly finds these things, calls Constantine after Zatanna fails to know wtf is going on, and he just calls over a kid. Or a group of them.

JL: We need a professional, why is there a child here?

Constantine: Cause even when you fuckers ignored their calls for help, they still at least try to help where they can

JL: We never-

Constantine: Shut your traps! School's in session

*Child tries to explain*

JL: You have to be kidding me. ___ doesn't exist.

Constantine: Oh bloody hell-

Child: And they wonder why they get more attention than us.

idk, I just like the idea of Constantine being a father for OP characters and desperately want a Young Justice League: Dark. I read a couple of Danny and/or Billy being adopted by him, but the cravings... And if it's a whole big crossover thing, that would be great. Tag me if you see or write about something like this. I wanna read too :)

Don't put too much hope in me writing it though, I'm seriously bad at continuing/finishing stuff. But if I do, I'll edit this post with links to whatever I write.

I love you dead punctuation marks.

Bar Soap vs. Liquid Soap – The Shocking Truth About Your Daily Wash

Bar Soap is Back – Here’s Why You Should Ditch the Pump

In a world dominated by convenience, liquid soaps have taken over our bathroom shelves. But have you ever stopped to wonder if they are truly the best choice for your skin and the planet? Handmade bar soaps offer a superior alternative—not only for personal care but also for environmental sustainability. Here’s why you should make the switch.

1. Handmade Bar Soaps Are Gentler on Your Skin

Most commercial liquid soaps contain harsh detergents, synthetic fragrances, and preservatives that can strip your skin of its natural oils. This can lead to dryness, irritation, and even exacerbate conditions like eczema.

Handmade bar soaps, especially those made with natural oils and butters, provide deep hydration and nourishment. A study published in the Journal of Dermatological Treatment found that soaps containing plant-based oils like olive oil and shea butter help improve skin barrier function and retain moisture (Sator et al., 2003).

At The Soapany, we use only the finest natural ingredients to ensure your skin feels soft, nourished, and never stripped of its essential moisture.

2. Bar Soaps Are Free from Harmful Chemicals

Many liquid soaps contain sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) and parabens, which have been linked to skin irritation and hormone disruption (Darbre et al., 2004). Handmade bar soaps, on the other hand, are typically crafted with pure, natural ingredients—no harsh additives, no unnecessary chemicals, just wholesome goodness.

3. Better for the Environment

Liquid soaps come in plastic bottles, contributing to the massive problem of plastic waste. According to a 2018 report by the United Nations, over 300 million tons of plastic waste are produced each year, and a significant portion ends up in landfills or oceans (United Nations Environment Programme, 2018).

Bar soaps, especially handmade ones, usually come in minimal or biodegradable packaging, making them a much more eco-friendly choice. Plus, they require less water and energy to produce compared to liquid soaps (Bakker et al., 2009).

4. Bar Soaps Last Longer & Save You Money

Did you know that bar soaps last up to six times longer than liquid soap? A study from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology found that bar soap usage is more efficient, with significantly lower product waste compared to liquid soap pumps (Götz et al., 2017).

Liquid soap often gets over-pumped or wasted due to its watery consistency, while a solid bar allows for controlled usage, ensuring you get the most out of every lather.

5. Handmade Soaps Contain Glycerin – A Skin Superhero

Glycerin is a natural humectant, meaning it attracts moisture to your skin. Unfortunately, many commercial liquid soaps have their glycerin removed to be used in other cosmetic products.

Handmade bar soaps retain their natural glycerin, making them deeply moisturizing and perfect for sensitive or dry skin (Morris et al., 2010).

6. The Experience is Simply Better

There’s something truly special about using a handcrafted, artisanal bar of soap. The rich lather, the natural scents, the luxurious feel—it turns a simple shower into a self-care ritual.

At The Soapany, every bar of soap is made with love, care, and high-quality ingredients, ensuring you get the best possible experience while caring for your skin.

Final Verdict: Bar Soap Wins!

If you’re looking for a gentler, more eco-friendly, cost-effective, and luxurious cleansing experience, handmade bar soap is the clear winner.

LET THEM HAVE DOGGOS AND GEESE

Honestly as a blind person I’m so tired of seeing fictional blind characters who don’t use white canes or other guides. “They have special powers so they know what’s around them” or “they’re confident enough to not need a guide” are common tropes, and I’m tired.

Are people scared that using a white cane will make their blind character seem weak? They can’t use a cane because they’re so special that they already know what’s around them, and other blind people who use guides are inferior because they’re not special?

I’m tired. Give your blind characters white canes and other guides. Let them hold onto their friends, let them have guide dogs. Don’t make white cane users feel ostracized for not being “strong enough” to go without.

Another thing that pisses me off is when a sighted character comes up with the fantasy equivalent of braille and teaches it to the blind character. Braille was invented by Louis Braille, a blind man, in 1824. The blind character should be the one coming up with it.

Tldr I’m blind and tired of sighted people lol

🔪 Sighted People MUST Reblog This 🔪

Happy dannypocalypse guys! I don't know how to edit, and I'm really just a one trick pony, so here you go :)
