There is this really terrible, incorrect, and even dangerous list going around.
Do not listen to it, do not reblog it! It is very wrong and the “advice” listed here can cause serious problems.
- Baby wipes are not necessary at all for your hygiene. While not as bad as most products, being used “every time” will definitely cause some damage. Your genitals maintain a specific environment of bacteria and a specific pH balance, and hygiene products will disrupt these balances and increase your risk of infection and other health issues. This includes baby wipes. All you need to clean your genitals is either rinsing with hot (not boiling) water or wiping with a clean rag with hot water.
- We do need water, but it’s also possible to hurt yourself by drinking too much, so take care to watch what you’re getting. As a side note, choose your water source carefully.
- Grapefruit is known to interfere with MANY medications, and that includes birth control if you have certain medical conditions, as well as other hormonal medication/treatments. Citrus fruits (pineapples!) are a concern in general but in most cases are considered not significant enough to cause issue – so ask your doctor if increasing citrus is okay. (Also remember that eating too much citrus fruits can cause burns and other bad reactions, especially on your tongue.)
These fruits are generally suggested based on the belief of changing your vagina to be more palatable. They are only suggested as home remedies/homeopathic for vaginal health. Besides yogurt and other probiotic foods, these foods have no medical backing as improving vaginal health and hygiene.- Don’t exfoliate your mucus membranes. Be careful exfoliating this area in general because this skin is far, far more sensitive. It is important to keep clean here especially when shaving, but you have to remember where we’re at.
- DO NOT USE UNDILUTED TEA TREE OIL ON BARE SKIN, ESPECIALLY GENITAL SKIN. It will hurt, it will rash, and you may even end up with burns. Don’t use essential oils in general on your skin.
- Moisturizing is important when shaving. It reduces the risk of shaving rash, itching, burning, and ingrown hairs to keep moisturized before and after you shave this area. But please, do not use these oils!! Even plain water by itself can be good enough – sit in the tub while shaving! Check out our #shaving tag for REAL, healthy shaving tips!
- Yes, take your vitamins, but be aware of what ones you need and how you need them. It’s just in general a good idea for your health. But it’s not imperative or required!
- This is almost as bad as the suggestion to use tea tree oil. Do NOT use soap on your genitals!! Even soaps “for” your genitals are terrible. Again, the genitals have a delicate nature that should not be disturbed. Genital hygiene products are made with the idea that the vagina is gross by default! It’s not about being healthy, it’s about reaching an unrealistic and incorrect beauty standard. Only use soap that your doctor prescribes you.
In fact, this list reeks to the stars of adhering to aesthetic expectations. Soaps, fruits, oils, baby wipes – this list looks like something pulled out of a magazine for making your vagina sparkle and smell good, rather than work well and stay healthy; many of the things on this list are typically suggested to
“combat”/alter vaginal smell, taste, and lubricant/discharge production
(yes, including the foods). I have yet to see a health professional or organization that wasn’t
affiliated with or quoted by a “feminine hygiene” company that endorsed
the use of these things, baby wipes included.Please combat this post when you see it!
i know ppl get anxiety about the water intoxication thing but i looked it up and if someone who is 165 pounds drinks 6 liters+ in a day, they can die. so if u really like water I’m guessing 2-3 liters a day is safe!
“lol asexuals dont face oppression!!”
asexuals: live in such a heavily sex influenced society that many feel broken and incomplete, face erasure both in and out of the lgbt community, have next to no awareness dedicated to them
“haha yeah theyre fine :)”
Shh shh shh people are not saying that asexual people don’t have problems or aren’t erased people are just saying that you aren’t going to get fucking fired or denied from a job because youre asexual
You’re not going to profiled because you are asexual
You’re not going to be denied basic human rights because you are fucking asexualPeople are less likely to want to be around/hire/rent an apartment to an asexual person.
Asexuals are often seen as machines or animals.
Many asexuals are raped so they can be “fixed”.
Even people in the medical field think asexuals are broken.
Asexuals. Are. Not. Better. Off. Than. The. Rest. Of. Us.
Stop making this into a competition and stop invalidating their experiences and problems.
PSA for everyone writing term research papers right now
Mendeley is the greatest program ever
I want to weep with joy every time I use it
Just click a button when you pull up an article and it will automatically save it to your library
And cite it for you
And you can use it on your mobile devices
And it’s free
Just download it and you won’t have so many urges to kill everyone in sight while writing a research paper
Thank you so much!
Guys, I cannot stress how amazing this program is.
You can use it to highlight, write notes, mark up, etc. What I do is I highlight all the important jazz, use the comments to write notes on the document, and on the side bar, I write an annotated bib for it for future me. It save everything you write on it forever for you and you can put the articles in folders and organize it.
But that’s not the best part, the best part is that you can access your articles ANYWHERE. Literally anywhere. Forgot your laptop and at a public library? No worries! You can go to the Mendeley website and ACCESS ALL YOUR ARTICLES WITH YOUR NOTES ONLINE. You don’t even have to download the program to access it! It is a life saver and I suggest everyone in academia use it!
Not that hard to do, really.
You’re killing yourself by doing this. Reposting helps get you out there so people know you exist, by doing this you’re really just showing how stupid you are.
Reposting kills the artist. And what i mean by that is the artist themselves dont get the recognition they deserve. For example, the original post gets about 100+ notes, while some wise guy decides to repost INSTEAD OF REBLOG and said post gets 1000+ notes. That artisit doesnt see those notes, the wise ass does. Get me?
While i dont mind reposts as long as they ask permission and credit me, and not edit my work (which happens a lot to artists, which is one of the many reasons an artist would prefer and request people not repost) theres always going to be some asshat who just happens to find a cool art piece, repost it with no credit/source or the original comments by true artisit, and pretend everything is fine with the excuse of “well they should be grateful, their art is getting out there” bullshit. So yeah, reposting gets art out there but it doesnt help the artisit when people say “OH WOW THAT IS BEAUTIFUL, i wonder who made this… OH WELL DERPDADERP” -reblogs- you know what thats come to? Its called stealing. While there are the few that source the art when reposting (ya’ll are great and i hope you got the ok to repost) the majority of the time from what I’ve witnessed, someone took said artwork, posted it with no link or source to the artist with some comments about the art. (ex. this is cool, great fanart wish i knew who drew it)
Tell me again, how stupid are we? SO. You know what benifits the artist? Reblogging instead of reposting. Its that simple. Really, how hard is that?
So instead of reposting, REBLOG. GIVE ARTISTS THE ATTENTION AND RESPECT THEY DESERVE. and if anything ask permission from the artist, and make sure you credit them. If they say not to repost then its common sense not to. Respect the artist. No means no.
“you’re killing your chance to get known if you don’t let people repost your work.”
Ah yes, those helpful people with their very helpful ‘credit to whoever drew this’ captions. Sometimes you’d be even lucky that they acknowledge at all that they did not draw the art.
Don’t repost art without credit or consent from the artist. It’s just rude and hurtful to their love for art and any business they might be trying to endorse with it.
!! SUPER FUCKING IMPORTANT !!
IM SO SORRY
I NEVER MAKE THESE POSTS, EVER, BUT THIS IS REALLY IMPORTANT TO ME
DAVID FUCKING CAMERON IS DECIDING TO MAKE CUTS ON CAMHS, WHO HELP YOUNG PEOPLE THROUGH THEIR MENTAL ILLNESSES, WHICH PUTS THEM AT RISK ON SHUTTING DOWN
NOW, THESE PEOPLE HAVE HELPED ME. A LOT. THEY’VE HELPED ME FIND THINGS ABOUT MYSELF I NEVER THOUGHT AND WITHOUT THEM HELPING WITH MY ANXIETY AND DEPRESSION, I WOULD BE DEAD. AND SO MANY OTHER YOUNG PEOPLE WILL BE IF THEY GET CLOSED OFF.
FOR THE LOVE OF EVERYTHING PLEASE SIGN THE PETITION, DAVID CAMERON SHOULD BE HELPING CAMHS, NOT FUCKING MAKING CUTS
https://www.change.org/p/david-cameron-mp-stop-cuts-to-young-people-s-mental-health-services
OK LISTEN UP MY FOLLOWERS AND MORE
CAMHS IS STRUGGLING BADLY RIGHT NOW. How do I know? I’m only just getting into their care/treatment.
When I went and asked for an appointment it took about 2-3 weeks for them to contact me. After that it took about 3 months to have the appointment itself. It’s because every single appointment, every time slot, is filled in. They even say that if you don’t think you can make it to CANCEL asap because they need to give these appointments out to as many as they can. Now they have to have appointments for those they can help every few weeks rather than what some young people need, which is every few days.
THEY NEED MORE MONEY, NOT CUTS. They have been cut so much in the past few years I fear another cut in money for them will lead to CAMHS being useless for young people and possibly shut down.
PLEASE SIGN IT PLEASE
military worship in this country is out of fucking control
excuse me?
military worship in this country is out of fucking control
Yea you’re right, we shouldn’t honor the people willing to risk their life to save ours and defend our country … oh
Military worship in this country is out of fucking control
I’m in the military and yes it’s out of fucking control. Most of the people I know in the military feel the same way. You civilians need to calm the fuck down. Most of us joined in our teens or early twenties. For a lot of us it was because we needed a job, and we didn’t see any other options, and this job has good benefits, especially for an uneducated young person in America. We get healthcare and education!! That’s some tempting fucking fruit. But this is a JOB. Some people in the military become heroes, that’s true. Jumping on grenades, defusing bombs, dragging a wounded person from the middle of a firefight. They usually end up dead in the process. Those people deserve respect, in my opinion. They give their lives for their friends, no matter whether or not you agree with the policies that put them there in the first place. But a lot of people in America reflexively claim that everyone in the military is a hero, full stop. This isn’t true and it lets people look the other way when something is actually wrong in the military, because it’s the military, they’re heroes, they can do no wrong.
We’re doing a job, and a lot of us are never really put in harm’s way. I work in a climate controlled lab for 8 hours a day, for instance. Really grueling. Such a hero. This fawning lip service of an infallible military doesn’t do us any good. I know people who have bought into it, who have heard so many people tell them that they’re heroes that they actually believe it, and they are the stupid and dangerous ones. Joining the military does not make you a hero, and calling us heroes might make you feel all warm and fluffy and red white and blue but it doesn’t do anything for the people that end up on the streets with PTSD or come home with life-changing injuries or in a box. We’re human beings, not some concept that you can just mindlessly adulate and then feel better about yourself.
This Poem Reads Negatively Downward, But Positively Upward
FNAF 4 Public Service Announcement
The next person who says Cawthon is milking the series just for the money is getting a bee hive to the face.
Let’s get this clear…
MAYBE SCOTT’S MAKING FNAF 4 BECAUSE HE ACTUALLY ENJOYS MAKING THE GAMES AND DOESN’T FEEL LIKE IT IS DONE YET.
Cawthon is not a company like Riot or Naughty Dog, he’s his own employer and his own boss. If this were a company that was making FNAF and they are over merchandising the game, then they’re probably milking it. But, that’s not the case. If anything, we should be proud of Scott for being able to make it this far. He’s the only one who is working on the series, and it’s been incredible.
Also, sidenote: Scott has a family. He has kids. Maybe, you know, HE NEEDS TO SUPPORT HIS FAMILY. So even if he is doing FNAF 4 for financial reasons, then that doesn’t really bother me. He has kids that he needs to build college funds for, and he has a family to take care of.
Who knows, maybe he’s beating a dead horse, but we won’t know that until the game is released. But, even if FNAF 4 turns out to be a fossil of a dead horse, I don’t care. I’m just happy that he’s been able to find a calling in life, and he has been able to be successful at it. Please, just try to be at least a little bit happy for him.
EVERYONE READ THIS RIGHT NOW PLEASE READ THIS I FUCKING LOVE THIS MORE THAN ANYTHING.
