It’s a pretty rare condition tbh, I think that’s why the slur took off. Gonna add more info about it in my original comment in a bit. I wonder if we could add it to the slur filter/moderate for it? I guess this is the place to ask.
Also didn’t know bog dweller lol. I’m so far behind on the latest in Terf Island name calling!
I’d actually push back on smooth brain not being ableist. It is actually a medial condition (even though that’s not the medical term for it), and I knew a kid that had it. It gave them a ton of medical complications, and it was hard watching them and their family struggle. Probably not the best thing to compare to online racists or what have you.
That being said, I do love the rest of these lol. What’s the context behind dirt person?
The prognosis for children with lissencephaly varies depending on the malformation and severity of the syndrome. Many individuals remain at a 3–5 month developmental level. Life expectancy is short and many children with lissencephaly will die before the age of 10. Some children with lissencephaly will be able to roll over, sit, reach for objects, and smile socially. Aspiration and respiratory disease are the most common causes of illness or death.[27] In the past, life expectancy was said to be around two years of age. However, with advances in seizure control, and treatments for respiratory illness, most children affected can live well beyond that age. With other advances in therapy and the broader availability of services and equipment, some children with lissencephaly are able to walk with varying degrees of assistance and to perform other functions once thought too advanced.
It’s the WORST, I for sure haven’t put that much effort in since. Looking back though it was at least fun putting it together and getting to wear it. Plus my kid’s old enough we’ll have fun making some kick ass costumes together.
One time I dressed up as The Crow, like OG movie crow. Practiced for days on the makeup, learned how to use liquid latex and some toilet paper to make fake bullet wounds, wrapped myself up in some black duct tape (which was hot as hell and SUCKED to take off lol) and got some black clothes. Lost in a costume contest to a dude in a blue shirt and premade Steve from Minecraft helmet and I’m still mad about it
Gonna dig out the Mothman onsie again for myself because it’s easy. Normally I love doing thrift store cosplay kinda stuff, but man I am not feeling it this year lol.
Thank you!! It’s called that because it spreads like a virus. First chunk of the pattern is actually that one circle at the base of the purple. It then radiates out from there.
Honestly surprised he finds the time to post in hell
