wait a minute

hold on

are u telling me that splash mountain didn’t have lap bars for nearly 20 years, that that the disneyland one doesn’t have them at all??? hello????

this ride has a fifty foot drop how do you not go flying out

i grew up in orlando so i’m kind of an expert on this! the trick is that you do go flying out a lot of the time, it happened to me a few times! you never see it happen when you’re watching the ride from ground level bc the drop goes so fast your brain just smooths it over bc you’re not expecting to see it happen. the human mind is incredible 😮

of course it never shows up in the on ride photos bc disney cast members are really good at pulling them super fast if theyre “objectionable”, thats how they keep pics where women flash their tiddies at the camera from showing up too (snopes link for ‘flash mountain’, interesting read, nsfw links off the page)

tbh it’s super safe, there’s stuntperson-grade padding all down the sides of the drop, it’s easiest to see if you look to the side right before the photos are snapped you can see it right by the emergency exit ramps. of course it’s all super well themed and disguised as mountainous rock, disney is so so so good at themeing. honestly it’s no big deal lmao, you just bounce out of the boat, a cast member immediately comes to walk you down the emergency exit ramps, and your whole party is given fastpasses for a different ride lmaoooo

@katherine-rose yeah lmao! it’s honestly not as bad as it sounds, disney’s pretty good on safety i swear. they try to keep it quiet but like now in the age of the internet it’s kind of hard to keep it under wraps.

here’s a recent article on the whole thing

Depression can manifest as irrational anger.

My complete and total inability to keep anything clean or tidy for any amount of time is a symptom of my depression. I may never be able to do this. It’s important that I remember that and forgive myself when I clean something out (like my car) and it ends up trashed within a week.

Depression IS A DISABILITY. Requiring accommodations is okay.

Medications don’t make you better, they don’t cure your depression. They serve as an aid. Their purpose is to help you get to everyone else’s minimal level of functioning.

Depression can cycle through periods of inactivity. This doesn’t mean it’s gone away.

The reason I don’t feel like other people understand me is because … well … other people DON’T understand me. They can’t. They don’t have my disability.

Paranoia is par for the course.

Depression can and will interfere with your physical mobility. Forgive yourself when you can’t physically do something.

It’s entirely possible that I may never be able to live by myself. I can’t take care of myself. I need help to do it. And that’s okay.

As someone who suffers from depression and who experiences all these things as well I think this is important and needs to be reblogged.
Depression is a very difficult thing, not only for people who suffer from it, but for everyone who knows a depressed person. My family doesn’t know how to deal with it, my friends try their very best to support me and I have tried to pretend I was fine until I was in ninth grade.

Everything makes so much more sense

Depression is a disease of the brain. The brain is an organ. When organs are not functioning properly, you are advised to see a doctor and get help. So why is it so hard to understand that the brain can suffer as well, and that we need help for it?

The brain controls the body. A sick brain means a sick body.

….
Shit.

Don’t disregard it as just sadness.  Depression is life threatening.
