I know a lot of people have this idea that they should be pushing themselves past their limits to achieve something. My illnesses and disability have taught me that pushing myself past my limits can only harm me. Yet, everyone expects me to do so. Here is your reminder that you do not have to push yourself past your limits. Those limits are there for a reason. Just take your time and do things at your own pace.
Are you tired? Bored? On enough pain meds to incapitate a horse? May I recommend: The Bear Cams.
The Bear Cams are live steams from Katmai National Park in Alaska. There are 6 livecams, 3 highlight reels, and 1 meditation reel. There are live Q&As with park officials, a very dedicated comment section with people who can seemingly magically identify which bears are which, blogs, weather, etc.
But most importantly: Bears.
Bears!
Baby bear!
Bears!
…Fish? (Sometimes with bears.)
If you’re not interested in bears (who are, at the end of the day, bears and thus prone to eating salmon in gruesome ways and occasionally killing other bears), explore.org has a number of other livecams such as: turkeys, sheep, kittens, dogs, alligators, and jellyfish. But the bears are in peak season right now, and they have a fat bear competition later on in the year, so I highly recommend them.
I especially like the “zen cams” of sunsets or waterfalls and the like, very soothing.
A lot of them seem to be live 24/7, and some of the cams are a little occluded because of the natural life of being placed in a nest/being exposed to the elements (rain!). Sometimes, you might find one of the streams like I did (aurora borealis) and find it to be the opposite of the optimal time of day for that thing to be on stream.
It’s a lot of fun, and it’s got a lot of educational resources on the website as well. Have fun and… Explore!
The “All for One is Izuku’s father” theory is both interesting and hilarious because any time I think about it, I just imagine Toshinori finding out and having a “I love this child with every fiber of my being and he has my complete trust but how the fuck did I manage to choose the one (1) child of my arch-nemesis as a successor” moment.
There’s also this
All for One: That’s my son
Toshinori, who has been Izuku’s father figure for years by now: I’ve already won this game and I didn’t even know I was playing
All for One holding newborn Izuku while forgetting to turn off his quirk stealing bullshit: Ah…I’ll fix that later
when anne boleyn died she was mostly likely in her mid-thrities, and perhaps looked older given the years of stress she lived as queen, she may have had a few greys hair and fine lines on her face
when elizabeth i met her troops at tilbury she was 54 years old, she had bad teeth and thin hair
when eleanor of aquitaine became queen of england she was already 30 years old, when her son richard began king she was 67 and lived some of the most active and adventurous years of her life until her death at 80
when catherine of aragon arrived at her trial at blackfriars and begged henry on hers knees to reconsider and then walked out of court and refused to return she was 43 years old, she was plump and tired looking after years of miscarriages
when her daughter mary raised an army for her right to the throne and entered london she was 37 years old, she was very small and looked much older than her age because of the years of bad health she had endured
anyway women don’t have to be 25 and hot to be important and we should let these women be the ages they were when they did these things
