Sigyn could turn away and leave Him, because there is nothing that Loki can offer Her to ease Her suffering, She could even blame Him for Her misfortune. But Sigyn does not blame Him. She does not complain. She stays. She takes responsibility. Even under the most difficult circumstances She is true to Her heart and Her love.

The most common cause of female infertility – polycystic ovary syndrome – may be caused by a hormonal imbalance before birth. The finding has led to a cure in mice, and a drug trial is set to begin in women later this year.

Polycystic ovary syndrome affects up to one in five women worldwide, three-quarters of whom struggle to fall pregnant. The condition is typically characterised by high levels of testosterone, ovarian cysts, irregular menstrual cycles, and problems regulating sugar, but the causes have long been a mystery. “It’s by far the most common hormonal condition affecting women of reproductive age but it hasn’t received a lot of attention,” says Robert Norman at the University of Adelaide in Australia.

I know. Shame on me for not knowing… But question.

I’ve seen it said that Narfi and Vali are twins and/or they were children when Odin turned Vali into a wolf to kill Narfi.

Is this actually mentioned anywhere, or is it UPG? I’ve looked it up and am just wondering if I might have missed something.

It’s popular UPG, but no, their ages are never actually stated in the lore.

Dos and don’ts on designing for accessibility

Karwai Pun, GOV.UK:

The dos and don’ts of designing for accessibility are general guidelines, best design practices for making services accessible in government. Currently, there are six different posters in the series that cater to users from these areas: low vision, D/deaf and hard of hearing, dyslexia, motor disabilities, users on the autistic spectrum and users of screen readers.

[…] Another aim of the posters is that they’re meant to be general guidance as opposed to being overly prescriptive. Using bright contrast was advised for some (such as those with low vision) although some users on the autistic spectrum would prefer differently. Where advice seems contradictory, it’s always worth testing your designs with users to find the right balance, making compromises that best suit the users’ needs.

I’ve been wanting something like this to reference! Boosting for the others that like to dabble in code/design.

This is some of the most lucidly written accessibility advice I’ve seen. Making accessible web pages should be the default, not an add-on. It’s really not that hard to do, especially when you think about it from the start – and it benefits everyone.

(Obligatory note that there are exceptions to some of these guidelines, e.g., “bunching” some interactions together is an important way to cue which interactions are related to each other, but that’s why these are guidelines, not absolute rules.)

young web designer: thank you oh my god no one has been able to explain this quite as well and this is just good shit

Sigyn || Norse Goddess of Fidelity

WORK IS STUPID AND LONG but somehow I’ve found a muse in Loki’s wives… There’s not much on Sigyn aside from her catching the snake venom that drips onto Loki after he’s imprisoned for killing Baldr, so I had a bit of free range with the aesthetics! Hope you guys like it! Might post the Angrboda one I made tonight. 🙂

Just gonna tag @honestsycretsx @lisinfleur @lol-haha-joke @dangerousvikings

Seizure First Aid. 

Learn it. Share it. Know it. Use it. 

100% correct medical information on tumblr for once; also consider calling 911 if you don’t know how often the person has seizures and ESPECIALLY if the seizure has lasted 5 minutes or more (which is why the watch is critical)

I have epilepsy so making sure the word is out on how to help people who do have seizures means a lot to me.

Oh my god, accurate epilepsy information. I am so happy, you have no idea.
