  • I take a medication that makes my skin sunburn easier, so I do have to wear sunscreen all the time. It sucks.

    But skin cancer sucks even more so yeah

    If you live in the US, the Trader Joe’s facial sunscreen is excellent, it’s clear and doesn’t leave a white cast. Asian sunscreens are also a lot more cosmetically elegant than american sunscreens tend to be. Our sunscreens in America are actually decades behind other countries technologically, because the FDA is very slow to approve newer sunscreen filters.











  • I don’t think the term “neurodivergent” implies there’s nothing wrong with you and you don’t need treatment. Neurodivergent is also used to describe bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and schizoaffective disorder. The term means that there is a structural difference in how the brain deveops in comparison to neurotypical people, as opposed to a “chemical imbalance” as is often used to describe mental illnesses such as depression and anxiety, which you can be born with but you can also develop due to trauma.
