I had 3 periods in one month after being tear gassed.
My friend who was protesting regularly, and being exposed to tear gas, had a cyst the size of an orange form on her uterus.
My other friend had her period for a straight month after being tear gassed.
There isnβt enough research right now that examines the long term effects of tear gas on people with uteruses. Who knows what could happen to us.
This is America.
i care for you still and i will forever.

ππ‘π ππ’π π‘π πππ«π’ππ ππ: A story where you play as the vessel of an old eldritch horror after a ritual to summon a god went horribly wrongβ¦
[ Demo TBA ]
You were supposed to be a sacrifice in order to bring an eldritch god to your realm, a sacrifice that was never supposed to live. Instead of dying and summoning the god intended, you find yourself face to face with an ancient being that was chained and locked away for the horrors they once committed.Β
Alzurahm is their name. A once revered god but now a pitiful creature made of bone and shadow. After finding themself free of their prison, they realise there is nothing to tether themself to, until you come into view.
They make you an offer. Become their host and allow them a taste of freedom and they will grant you power to ensure you both live.The catch is that their thoughts will become your thoughts, their weaknesses will become your weaknesses and their fears will become your fears.Β
But things are never as simple as they seem. After the revelation that you are more than just human, The Court of Night decides to utilise the mistake they made by brainwashing you and shape you into something of their own that most would come to know simply as: The Vesselβsomeone who no one wishes to see at their doorstep.
After being sent on a mission to eliminate a traitor of The Court, a series of unfortunate events throw you off the planned course and onto another where you then find yourself hunting an evil much greater than the ones you were taught about.
Will you remain a puppet of The Court or will you cut the strings that tie you to them?
β Play as a female, male or non-binary character and customise your Vessel.
β Romance one of four ROs: A woman with unmatched skill in marksmanship, an agile swordsman, a figure who walks quietly in the shadows, and the traitor themself.
β Reluctantly join forces with The Order of Solitar and save the future from the reigning chaos or join them simply to save yourself.
β Reunite with people you never thought youβd see againβ¦though it may not be as heartwarming as you may think.
βBe part of the Resurrection of a God that is of far greater power than you think was possible.

Vira Duval [F]Β β Romanceable by f!MCs and nb!MCsΒ
Vira has the sharpest eye Providence has to offer. Events of the past has led her to build a wall of safety around her, but there is a crack in that wall created by the few people she trusts and it is a crack that can be easily exploited if you so wish.Β
She is a tall woman, standing tall with a posture only nobles could have. Her skin is fair with faint scars that run along her back which were inflicted upon her when she was young. Much like her personality, her blue eyes are cold and calculating. She has hair of silk that reaches down to her lower back with a colour that is often compared to the feathers of a raven.
She is the twin sister of Aurius, older by three minutes.

Aurius Duval [M] β Romanceable by all MCs
Aurius has refined mastery of all blades though his preferred weapon is a sword that was gifted to him by a friend. Unlike his sister, he is kinder and easier to speak with. Many have said that comfort is easy to find in him.
Like Vira, he is quite taller, almost by a head but he lacks the noble posture as she does. His skin is fair, clear of scars save for a tiny sliver by his lip. His eyes are a light blue that holds serenity and like the feathers of a raven, his hair is the same dark colour that is cut short and pushed back.
He is the twin brother of Vira, younger by three minutes.

Rhian Scott [F/M/NB]Β β Romanceable by all MCs
Rhian is an expert of stealth, quietly making their way through conflict without being seen or heard. When they are out of the shadows, they tend to be charismatic and a bit flirty. But if they so wished, they could become just as serious as the jaded marksman.Β
They are of average height with skin kissed by the sun. There is a beauty mark just under the left side of their lips and their eyes shine a bright amber shade that could act as a torch. They have dark brown hair that seems to shift into red when hit by sunlight. F!Rhian tends to keep her hair long past her shoulders whereas m!Rhian and nb!Rhian tend to keep theirs short.

Ilya Roson [F/M/NB]Β β Romanceable by all MCs
Your former partner and a traitor of The Court. Before they burned the bridges between you and The Court, they were kind and understanding, even a bit protective. But it is unknown whether or not it was all an act.
They are of average height, leaning towards the tall side. Their porcelain skin is smooth but with markings carved into the palms of their hands. Their hair is wavy, reaching just past their shoulder with the colour of silver. There is a storm that rages behind their grey eyes, fury and hatred burning within. But when they look at you, the storm begins to settle and is replaced by guilt and regret.

Alzurahm [M/NB]
The horror that lives within you. They feed you power and oftenβ¦their opinions. Only you can see them as they have no physical body anymore. They enjoy pretending to be what they arenβtβhuman.

Elias [M]Β
A leader of Providence. He is someone whom you thought was long lostβyour older brother.
And the sworn enemy of The Court of Night.

Tiberius Cabas [M]
The man who raised you as The Vessel.
Behind the evils heβs commited, there is a part of him that still cares for you even though he shouldnβt.

Hey, Iβm Zico!Β
The Night Abridged is intended for 17+ audiences due to the content warnings: Body horror, strong language, violence, blood & gore and possibly more. It may be changed to 18+ in the future!
This is a project of mine that Iβve been daydreaming about lately so I thought Iβd try my hand at turning it into an IF. Iβm a sucker for romances so there wonβt be platonic routes. Apologies to anyone whoβs disappointed with that!
Reblogs are much appreciated! Thanks for checking out this post! Iβm still getting used to tumblr but if you have any questions, feel free to hit me up and send an ask.
You know that Ada LimΓ³n poem where sheβs like βi canβt help it i love the way men loveβ? my dad recently confessed to me that he became a shoemaker because they buried my grandma shoeless

a gunman in georgia just went on a shooting spree targeting asian owned business in a hate crime involving 8 deaths of people with varying nationalities (6 asian, with 1 white woman and 1 white man) last night. (click on photos to enlarge, credits to @frogvk on twitterΒ for the graphics)
Herd immunity is the idea that if enough people get immunized against a disease, theyβll create protection for even those who arenβt vaccinated. This is important to protect those who canβt get vaccinated, like immunocompromised children.Β
You can see in the image how low levels of vaccination lead to everyone getting infected. Medium levels slow down the progression of the illness, but they donβt offer robust protection to the unvaccinated. But once you read a high enough level of vaccination, the disease gets effectively road-blocked. It canβt spread fast enough because it encounters too many vaccinated individuals, and so the majority of the population (even the unvaccinated people) are protected.
