Mario but he's an actual tanooki 💕

I'll be honest: I've got no excuse for that one. This is just pure and unfiltered silliness. 😂

The idea that Peach finds Mario very handsome is one that I absolutely adore, and I love imagining that her friends would often catch her staring while he works around the castle. The man would never notice; too absorbed by the task at hand to remotely consider that his visible strain and skillful moves might be closely observed. But little does he know, those seemingly mundane displays of strength and deftness would have the Princess pining even harder for him! xD 💘

What can I say? It's been forever since the last time I drew her looking properly flustered in his presence. I just had to! 😏🤭

Hi! I drew this little comic based on this incorrect quote by zootopiathingz! :D

Love me some oblivious Mario and also pining from iiit :y

Also, I haven't drawn a comic like this ever I think, so it was fun to make! Although I gotta work on the space the speech bubbles use jsjs

Okay, but imagine the gutpunch it is when Mario stumbles across his own brother's unfulfilled wish on Star Hill. How Mario is thinking, but you already help me so much, what more could you want while knowing deep down what his brother is getting at. And the selfish part of Mario wants to beg Geno to not grant this wish when the time comes, after they've defeated Smithy and restored the Star Road. Because if Luigi gets what he wants, he'll be in danger and Mario wants his little brother, above all, to be safe - damn all the other consequences.

I want to help my brother.

But that's not what his brother meant, was it?

I want to be a hero - like my brother. I want to be important - like my brother.

I want to be loved - like my brother.

"Is everything alright, Mario?" Geno asks, placing an awkward hand on his shoulder.

"I - " Mario stammers, taking off his hat, worrying at the brim with calloused, dirty fingers. But you're already loved, Weeg. Isn't that enough? "Yeah, I'm fine. We should get going," he says, giving one last despondent look at the little smiling star before slamming his cap back on his head, running his shirtsleeve across his nose with a cut-off sniffle.

I saw this super cute comic today on pinterest. I found it surprisingly helpful, especially with my gastroparesis acting up recently.

I hope someone here finds this useful!

Today’s Tips: Nausea

Trigger warning for emetophobia here, and mentions of disordered eating.  Nothing graphic, but proceed with caution.

Feeling nauseous is another one of those symptoms that I think a lot of us spoonies deal with, a lot of the time.  Myself included, so I’ve gathered quite a collection of coping mechanisms over the years.  Not everything works for everyone, but hopefully you find something that gives you some relief.

-Ginger!  The classic is ginger ale, but that doesn’t have much actual ginger in it, and the carbonation can bother your stomach too.  My favorite is candied ginger- it works really well, but can be a little spicy.  Ginger candy, ginger mints, and ginger tea are all good choices too.  You can also add ground ginger to your food, I like to hide it in my breakfast.

-Mint.  Like ginger, peppermint can help calm your stomach down.  Tea and mints (with real peppermint) are easy ways to get this.

-Placebo.  I know I said earlier that real ginger and peppermint work better, but if you associate a flavor with feeling better, the fake version might work too!  Sipping tea or sucking on a hard candy can be very calming, so that can help in and of itself too.

-Don’t wait for it to get bad.  I find this is true for many symptoms- if you wait to treat it until it’s awful, the treatment isn’t going to work as well.

-Medications.  I feel like I know every trick in the book for dealing with nausea, and sometimes it’s just not enough.  When I explained to my doctor that it was happening every day and I was missing school, I got a prescription for anti nausea meds, and they are magical.  There are some over the counter meds for nausea too, although I haven’t personally tried them.  The thing I do know, is that nausea from motion sickness is different from other nausea!  Meds for one won’t really work for the other, because they’re affecting different pathways in your body.  Although, interesting fact, benadryl works for motion sickness.  It’s super similar to over the counter motion sickness meds.  (mast cell disease friends, your mast cells might be causing motion sickness even when you’re still, FYI.  Same goes for vertigo).  (Okay, tangent over).

-Ice and cool washcloths.  Feeling too hot can definitely add to nausea, so staying comfortably cool can help.  An ice pack or cool, damp washcloth on your forehead, stomach, the inside of your wrists, or the back of your neck should be most effective at cooling you off, but you can put it wherever feels good.

-Deep breaths.  I don’t know exactly why, but this often helps.  At the very least, it takes some of the anxiety out of the equation.

-Distraction.  This is a great one for while you’re waiting for meds to kick in, or for when you know anxiety is a major cause.  A distraction that won’t set off any motion sickness is best (aka not a video game, or reading in the car).

-Small sips of cool water.  I find this one works particularly well for acid reflux related nausea.

-Eating foods that are more bland and gentle.  Generally, things that are fried, spicy, strongly flavored, or very acidic (lemonade, tomato soup, etc). are harder on your stomach.  So eating things like rice, applesauce, juice, bananas, toast, chicken broth might help.  Everyone’s so different though, so it’s more about what works for you and your body, this is just a starting point.

-Have a little snack.  Sometimes, ironically, nausea is caused by going too long without eating, or from taking meds on an empty stomach.  This feels like a major design flaw with the human body to me, but apparently we’re stuck with it, so- now you know.

-Having more smaller meals, instead of only 2 or 3 big ones.  Less for your digestive system to handle at once, you know?

-Apparently, sniffing rubbing alcohol?  I haven’t personally had any luck with this, but I see so many other people rave about it that I figured I had to list it here.

-Look at pregnancy products.  There are all kinds of candies and supplements and tools made to help with morning sickness, but that doesn’t mean you can’t use them to help other nausea!

-Get some fresh air.  Turn on a fan or open a window, especially if you know you’re feeling gross from motion sickness or dizziness.

-Rest.  Sometimes you just need to lie still and relax for a while.

-Make note of what makes you feel worse, so you can avoid it in the future.  Fellow neurodivergent spoonies, I find that any form of overstimulation will always make me feel gross, so the calmer (and quieter and stiller and unscented-er and so on) I can make my world, the better.

-Keep a food diary.  Keeping track of what you eat, and when you feel sick, can help you figure out if there’s a pattern.  This is also a common thing doctors ask you to do, so you’ll be one step ahead if you decide to see a specialist about nausea.  HOWEVER.  However.  If you have an eating disorder, are in recovery from an eating disorder, or are at all at risk for disordered eating- this is a really risky thing to do.  I’m generally very good about having a healthy attitude towards food and weight, but keeping a food log was still tough for me.  This can be REALLY triggering, so please skip this, or at least proceed with caution, if you’re at risk.  Another option is only keeping a food diary when you feel like you can handle it.  If you only make it three days and have to quit, that three days is still helpful information.  Please take care of yourself <3

Oh, and one more note- maybe don’t cut out gluten without asking your doctor about testing for celiac disease first.  You have to be eating gluten for the test to be accurate.  I learned that one the hard way.  Non-celiac gluten issues are totally real, but if you want to rule celiac disease out, keep this in mind.

-Chronic nausea, especially to the point where it’s causing problems with your diet or quality of life, is worth asking a doctor about.  I assumed it was just something I have to live with, but when I saw a new doctor, she said, “That’s not okay, I think we can do better”.  So she ran some tests, adjusted my meds, and what do you know, I’ve been feeling better!  I know it can be really hard to get doctors to listen, but if it won’t hurt to ask, I think it’s worth trying.  They might be able to address the root cause or provide different medications, which are things you can’t handle on your own.  Playing the card about quality of life might be convincing- tell them specifics about how much it’s interfering with your life, and ask what your options are.  Good luck!
