day 19(?): boredom got way worse, trying to make myself a victorian friend
Ok ok ok, last humans are the weird ones, I promise! (I am also a god damn liar.)
So this ailien crew is finally retiring their beloved human/orc friend who has thrown them through the ringer so many times they’ve learned all the weirdness that comes compacted in that apex predator from earth.
It’s really sad when they have to let their human go because ofcourse besides being a space-orc their human was also space-glue and made them all love it and want to be friends forever. But their human has a family it wants to get back to and tell all these wonderful adventures they all had together. So its good bye.
But soon after the human leaves the ship and goes to their family on this fringe-y colony planet that all the races in the galaxy agree can’t be settled but humans are sending their fifth colonizing attempt anyways because fuck it, it’s what we do, the colony succumbs to a terrible natural disaster. The ailien crew rushes ba ck to save their friend (and reallynanybody) but alas, all they find is their former crew mates body clutching a small screaming bundle.
A human baby.
Well its only right to take it with them right? Yeah! To honor their friend! To have a new friend! Besides they are EXPERTS in dealing with a full grown human. A baby human has to be a breeze in comparison right? Right!
So they adopt it.
First they name it Clamchowder in honor of the human tradition of naming children in hopes of they having qualities linked to the name. It was very, very carefully selected name.
Then they discover in very rapid and horrible sucsession: Human babies don’t speak Human babies don’t walk or move much on their own Human babies do not regulate their excrement at apropriate intervals Human babies need to be interacted with and physically touched or they waste away (that was a close call untill Clamchowder latched onto Moongah the extremely fuzzy first mate) Human babies need special diet, which does not include bottles filled with engine grease. Another close call. Human babies will put EVERYTHING IN YHER MOUTH OH NO SPIT OUT THE CONTROL BUTTON PLEASE!!! And it never ever ever stops screaming, ever!
Ultimately the crew decides that this is a whole new set of problems, and even gthougb they really wanted Clamchowder to be like their dead parent they eventually realize that this is a complete different adventure.
So they become baby experts too.
they’re the worst
make sure you have Comfy Clothes
heat packs/hot water bottles? absolute essentials
if you don’t have them, lying on ur stomach helps LOADS
if you’re feeling nauseous, the smell of peppermint eases the nausea. no one likes throwing up. if you don’t have an aroma diffuser, drip a few drops of peppermint oil into a cup of water, smell it if you feel like puking
chocolate !!! especially dark chocolate
hot drinks, like soup,,,,, or tea !!! hot tea is so nice during periods, and it has health benefits !!
ice cream is nice but not great for periods :( TEA IS GOOD !!!!!!
this list goes out to anyone who doesn’t have periods as well. if u know someone who has periods, know that cramps are bitches. help them out.
sometimes the nausea gets really bad, but ALWAYS REMEMBER TO EAT REFULAR MEALS. when u wanna puke eating is hard, i understand sweetie but even a snack. not eating makes the nausea worse.
if the cramps get real bad, remember to BREATHE. unclench your jaw, loosen your shoulders and neck, breathe in for 4 seconds, out for 5. repeat.
if there’s someone to rub ur back or play with your hair, ask them to !!
seriously, it feels better
periods are like small demon babies that bloat your stomach for five days and make u feel icky, you deserve someone to rub ur back for ten fucking minutes goddammit
keep hydrating. water, tea, whatevs. but hydrate.
pee regularly, change your pad/tampon regularly. REMEMBER THIS. set reminders if you need to.
play some chill music, watch a sitcom
REMEMBER THE HOT WATER BOTTLE. THAT SHIT IS A LIFESAVER
i’m lying on my stomach as i type this now and i feel the sweet warmth blossoming in my sad bloated stomach where the bad gremlin period baby is hiding
THIS GOES OUT TO PEOPLE WHO DONT’T HAVE PERIODS
THIS GOES OUT TO PEOPLE WHO DONT’T HAVE PERIODS
THIS GOES OUT TO PEOPLE WHO DONT’T HAVE PERIODS
seriously please help us we are but sad uterus-bearing souls haunted by stupid blood babies
please
good luck period-bearers ily all
oh yea if you sleep a certain way (on your stomach, on your side, etc) make sure to adjust your pad so that you won’t leak
borax is good for cleaning period stains
