Depression is humiliating. It turns intelligent, kind people into zombies who can’t wash a dish or change their socks. It affects the ability to think clearly, to feel anything, to ascribe value to your children, your lifelong passions, your relative good fortune. It scoops out your normal healthy ability to cope with bad days and bad news, and replaces it with an unrecognizable sludge that finds no pleasure, no delight, no point in anything outside of bed. You alienate your friends because you can’t comport yourself socially, you risk your job because you can’t concentrate, you live in moderate squalor because you have no energy to stand up, let alone take out the garbage. You become pathetic and you know it. And you have no capacity to stop the downward plunge. You have no perspective, no emotional reserves, no faith that it will get better. So you feel guilty and ashamed of your inability to deal with life like a regular human, which exacerbates the depression and the isolation. If you’ve never been depressed, thank your lucky stars and back off the folks who take a pill so they can make eye contact with the grocery store cashier. No one on earth would choose the nightmare of depression over an averagely turbulent normal life.

It’s not an incapacity to cope with day to day living in the modern world. It’s an incapacity to function. At all. If you and your loved ones have been spared, every blessing to you. If depression has taken root in you or your loved ones, every blessing to you, too. No one chooses it. No one deserves it. It runs in families, it ruins families. You cannot imagine what it takes to feign normalcy, to show up to work, to make a dentist appointment, to pay bills, to walk your dog, to return library books on time, to keep enough toilet paper on hand, when you are exerting most of your capacity on trying not to kill yourself. Depression is real. Just because you’ve never had it doesn’t make it imaginary. Compassion is also real. And a depressed person may cling desperately to it until they are out of the woods and they may remember your compassion for the rest of their lives as a force greater than their depression. Have a heart. Judge not lest ye be judged.

EVERYONE NEEDS TO READ THIS.

Depression is not a synonym for being sad or having a bad day/bad week.

It’s not a PHASE. It’s not a CHOICE. It’s not LAZINESS.

More Facts on Psychofacts :)

I’m getting more and more annoyed at how many times these “facts blogs” spits out misleading information. And psychofacts doesn’t even add a proper source for this. I never trust these blogs.
First off it’s completely stupid to say “this can give you cancer and kill you”. That sentence is only meant to scare people. It is just like saying “having sex will make you pregnant, get AIDS and die”.
Secondly, the submitter apparently doesn’t seem to know the difference between “Sun tan” and “sun BURN”.
Tanned skin is NOT “only damaged skin cells” - because the first outer skin layer is ALL dead skin cells to begin with.
When you get tanned or sunburned, the dead skin will fall off - it works like a “human shield” that sacrifice it’s life to protect the others. (so dramatic…)
A tanned skin means that your skin turns more dark brown due to pigments that is created as a way to protect your body from UV-rays. The darker skin you are born with, the better protection will you have.

A SUN BURN means that your skin HAS been DAMAGED, which you can see and feel due to the skin turning RED and sore. And THAT is the dangerous thing you SHOULD protect you from.
ESPECIALLY if you are pale, scandinavian caucasian, ginger and younger than 16 years old.

The more PALE your skin is, the higher is the risk that you get sun burned rather than tanned. You can sit in the shadow and get a tan as well, but scandinavians like me are recommended to not go sun bathing between 10am and 2pm in the summer, since that’s the hours when the sunrays are the strongest.

TL;DR: This fact is not inaccurate, but incredibly misleading. And that is never okay.

 #wait there are DIFFERENT WAYS of doing it? #I feel like I only knew the missionary position then discovered a kama sutra book

I remember finding this and I tried following the instructions. I still don’t know how to tie a tie.

Ummmm…

Is it sad that I knew all of these by the time I was thirteen?

Life

Just uh skip this It’s me going on about my life at the moment. And I can’t put up a read more(you would think iPads would let you do this but they don’t)

I have one: stonebruiseon my left heel. Ow

One: pulled calf muscle in my right leg.

A few: sunburns on my right side mostly my arm and neck.

Sore knee’s: from avoiding putting too much pressure, failing btw, on either injured leg- see above.

One: crick in my neck.

Tomorrow I have a list of things to do.

Clean my room. I’m going to kill myself at this rate on the pile of clothes on my floor.

Sort my clothes. Which are going to charity and which do I actually wear.

Mow the lawn.

Make supper.

Finish the somnophore pic which is killing me at the moment because Somnophore is a bastard to draw. all those details and I need a Better res photo but there are none. Sob

See if I can recover half my art files.

Anything I had put in a folder I had called ‘practice’ is now corrupt. My dad showed me how to recover individual files but some of the are so badly chewed up from a virus that was downloaded onto my computer by someone and not me. I know because the last thing I downloaded was my copy of Sai.

And that was almost a year ago now.

Oh and for shaylakalen calling you this cause Its easier those pictures I told you about. Yeah all those art files were in he aforementioned folder.

Oh an maybe if I get the courage to do this applytosiast

14 Ways to Save Money on Groceries
1. Line the bottom of your refrigerator’s crisper drawer with paper towels. They’ll absorb the excess moisture that causes vegetables to rot.
2. To keep herbs tasting fresh for up to a month, store whole bunches, washed and sealed in plastic bags, in the freezer. When you need them, they’ll be easier to chop, and they’ll defrost the minute they hit a hot pan.
3. A bay leaf slipped into a container of flour, pasta, or rice will help repel bugs.
4. Stop cheese from drying out by spreading butter or margarine on the cut sides to seal in moisture. This is most effective with hard cheeses sealed in wax.
5. When radishes, celery, or carrots have lost their crunch, simply pop them in a bowl of iced water along with a slice of raw potato and watch the limp vegetables freshen up right before your eyes.
6. Avoid separating bananas until you plan to eat them – they spoil less quickly in a bunch.
7. Put rice in your saltshaker to stop the salt from hardening. The rice absorbs condensation that can cause clumps.
8. Stock up on butter when it’s on sale – you can store it in the freezer for up to six months. Pack the butter in an airtight container, so it doesn’t take on the flavor of whatever else you’re freezing.
9. In order to make cottage cheese or sour cream last longer, place the container upside down in the fridge. Inverting the tub creates a vacuum that inhibits the growth of bacteria that causes food to spoil.
10. Believe it or not, honey is the only nonperishable food substance, so don’t get rid of the stuff if it crystallizes or becomes cloudy. Microwave on medium heat, in 30-second increments, to make honey clear again.
11. Prevent extra cooked pasta from hardening by stashing it in a sealed plastic bag and refrigerating. When you’re ready to serve, throw the pasta in boiling water for a few seconds to heat and restore moisture.
12. Keeping brown sugar in the freezer will stop it from hardening. But if you already have hardened sugar on your shelf, soften it by sealing in a bag with a slice of bread – or by microwaving on high for 30 seconds. 
13. If you only need a few drops of lemon juice, avoid cutting the lemon in half – it will dry out quickly. Instead, puncture the fruit with a metal skewer and squeeze out exactly what you require.
14. If you’re unsure of an egg’s freshness, see how it behaves in a cup of water: Fresh eggs sink; bad ones float.

Mary Jane Exclusive MAXIM cover by Jamie Tyndall

LOVE this.

Her boobs look super awkward.

they’re being warped by the pull of her underwear so far up her butt it’s coming otu her ears

Why does she have a tattoo of her own initials?
I dislike this quite a bit. 

I especially enjoy her eye floating off into space, and her bra shirt thing..
Did no one redline this before it was colored?  I mean there is style and then there is.. well.
This.
I would like to see a Peter Parker exclusive next.  Same outfit and pose, naturally.

Elbows… ELBOWS..I can’t find them!
(&W#NDS(*P@EB^DA8

I think I may have fixed it, but my anatomy isn’t the greatest, so others would most likely do better but I couldn’t leave this unchallenged.
So a few things before I show my picture: Both are attempts at correcting anatomy. Number 1 is before I decided to fix the spine. Number two is it from a full front view similar stance, but less spine impossibility.
Number 1: http://fav.me/d4zfdgx
Number 2: http://fav.me/d4zfd38
There…. Uh if anyone see’s anything wrong with my redlining just let me know and I’ll repost it with the fix.

elysianorchid asked: Awww you took the fix you were trying to do one funny elbow lady down. I wanted to see it :o

So it wasn’t just my imagination. That post was there! My sisters must not have logged me out, and most likely deleted the post.  I’ll go repost it. When I find that post again.
