This is called Afrezza. It’s an inhaler for diabetic insulin. That’s right. An inhaler. That means no more needles. It’s only for fast acting insulin, but it could still vastly improve the life of a lot of diabetics.
Imagine having to constantly prick yourself with needles to keep yourself alive, and then suddenly there’s a new product that could change the whole way you live your life for the better.
And here’s the thing: it works. It works really really well. People with diabetes that have been lucky enough to have used it think it’s amazing.
But sadly, it’s probably going to end up as a failure because the pharmaceutical company (a French company called Sanofi) that was in charge of marketing it didn’t care enough to actually try. Not only that, but they made it incredibly expensive so hardly anyone could afford it. Most people have never heard of it, and the way things are going, no one else ever will.
Please reblog this to raise awareness of this product and hopefully get another company to market it. It could change so many lives.

This is a headcanon that requires really long arms but here it goes. XD
I can't stop thinking about how Katsuki and Ochako's formal attire matches and how it was Momo and Eijiro that gave them them the attire. At first, I really wanted to have some bts matchmaking going on but then I realized it wouldn't work because Eijiro packed the attire before the events of the movie, so there's no way Momo and him formed the plan together before hand.
So here's the part that requires really long arms. Since Momo was there to witness Ochako's clear jealousy of Izuku interacting with Melissa given Kyoka and Momo were subtly shaming him for it (like girls chill, he's not even dating Ochako he's allowed to talk to other girls XD) she forms a plan after being reminded Katsuki and Izuku are "fated rivals". She calls (or Kyoka if she's in on the plan too and I don't see why not since she was there too. It also probably makes more sense she has Kirishima's number over Momo because of Denki. Then again they both know Mina and she'd probably be the better middle man to call Kirishima to get info) Kirishima to ask he and Katsuki are planning on going to the party and what they'll be wearing. Eijiro being good natured and not seeing any hidden intentions reveals what the outfits look like. She at the last minute lends Ochako an outfit that conveniently fits with the suit Katsuki wears. Her plan is to get Izuku's rival to match with Ochako to potential break some kind of ice between them. This in turn would get Izuku's attention and finally do something about his feelings for Ochako. Ochako has no idea about this plan because she would have never approved of it. Due to Momo's nature she internally feels guilty about this plan the whole way through but she convinces herself no harm is really being done because she's doing it to have Ochako's back against a love rival. She also can't imagine Katsuki ever really going for Ochako so there's really no harm in giving her friends a little push in the right direction. Kirishima is none the wiser to any of this because he just wants his buddy to let loose, eat food, and have a good time. If you haven't picked it up, the reason why this headcanon is a stretch is because I don't think it's in Momo's character to be that sneaky and conniving especially just for petty jealousy. She's too much of the nice, mom friend to form such a plan, even if it is to help a good friend. But who knows, maybe Kyoka Jiro convinced her to be that sneaky!? XD TLDR: I really want someone to make an AU fanfic of the Two Heroes movie where no bad guys come by and they actually go to a party. I want the origin of the matching attire to be discussed! Heck even throw in the comic where Bakugo gets pissed off with Deku looking too much into flower symbolism in the fanfic. XD

Glad you asked, phantom person that I use as a stand-in!
Zināʾ (زِنَاء) or zinah (زِنًى or زِنًا) is an Islamic legal term referring to unlawful sexual intercourse. (Wikipedia)
I think it would be disrespectful towards islamic peoples believes to use it as a ship name as well as considering the meaning “unlawful sex” of all kinds… I don’t think it would be a good ship name.
Meanwhile Zekina is only a name and surname in a couple of countries, so basically free for grabs! Let’s go with that!
1. Everyone is welcome to participate.
2. This is an event to celebrate the romantic involvement of Tina and Zeke from the show Bob’s Burgers, but portrayals of them as friends are welcome too! (But no other ships with either of them.)
3. No reposting of other peoples work! (Sharing a link is fine, using graphics and scenes from the show is also fine.)
4. You do not need to have a tumblr blog to participate. However, if you are not blogging on tumblr and would like to see your work featured on this blog, I need you to submit it. (You can stay anonymous if you want to)

6. Don’t worry if you’re no native speaker. Use the language you feel most comfortable with!
7. (I don’t feel like it should have to be said but…) No bashing on other artists’ works or harassing others. Zeke and Tina would never approve of bullying, and neither will I.

10/27/2020
I changed Debora's formal/prom dress to something I would be more proud off.
Poor “Bangs Removed” Ronaldo. Don’t worry bald is beautiful. Lovely Ronaldo drawings!
So to the person who asked me how I draw Ron’s hair… uh… I found this just sitting in my drafts. XD Applying a hairstyle meme!
At the beginning of the episode, I notice that Zeke's dad was sitting at a table with a lady in a blue blouse, some guy in a blue tie, and Zeke. More than that, the lady was sitting next to Zeke in the longer shots. (who knows where Zeke goes when they get closer though. XD) I notice she's either close to Zeke or Zeke's dad as seen in the images below.
So since Cheryl has no canon face as of this moment, I headcanon that the blue blouse lady is Cheryl. Though, feel free to say I'm wrong and she appears in another episode under another name because I honestly want to know. I don't keep up with all the bg characters of BB so I'm not sure if the lady is in any other episodes or not. I also want to keep an eye out for the guy that's next to Zeke's dad in the first screenshot. I want to say he's Zeke's 44-year-old brother, but I'm not sure if he's already a character with his own lore separate from Zeke's family. The character he looks the most like, at least from what I found so far is Glen. I don't think he's Glen though because Glen has darker brown hair and the hair is not as smooth (also I think Glen has slightly tanner skin). Hopefully, I'll find him outside of this episode one of these days. Also, since Zeke's dad doesn't necessarily look like someone who could have a 44-year-old son, here's my headcanon. Zeke's 44-year-old is the result of teen pregnancy and Zeke's dad is between his late 50s and early 60s. He also dyes his balding hair to make himself feel younger than he is. Back to maybe Cheryl. I suppose there's still a possibility that the lady could be Zeke's bio mom and she just got a bigger redesign compared to Zeke's dad from what he looked like in "The Belchies".
Then again, we still don't know if this lady from "The Belchies" was an early design for Cheryl or not either. Until we get an episode that actually reveals Cheryl or Zeke's bio mom, these two designs are all I have to go off of. So Occam's razor, since Cheryl gets talked about more than his bio mom, I'm going to assume the blue blouse lady is Cheryl and not his bio mom or some random woman until proven otherwise. TLDR, I headcanon the blue shirt lady as Zeke's stepmom but I'm still not sure if she could be just a random bg character with her own thing or even a redesign of Zeke's bio mom (if the woman from "The Belchies" wasn't a proto Cheryl that is). Many questions are left unanswered for now and not much proof to grasp, the nature of many headcanons for brief bg characters.
I’ve been wanting to post the fan character of mine for a while on here. However, I wanted to wait until I had somewhat of a proper profile for this character so people would know what purpose she serves in my headcanon of the HA! universe. So anyway, Here’s what I have for her profile so far. I most likely will edit this profile slightly every now and then if I notice I forgot something or made a typo. Either way, this is what I have so far.
Name: Debora Winifred Blaney
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Straight
Birth Date: November 24th, 1987
Eye Color: Greenish blue

I have so far 4’7 for 9, 4′8 for 11, 5′ for 12, 5′3 for 15, 5’4 ½ for 17 and onward. I just went with my heights throughout my life. I only hope one day somebody can measure and headcanon the heights of Arnold and the gang.

Likes: Drawing in her sketchbooks, reading (comics, manga, and regular books), creating new words with the names of people that she assumes are a couple or she personally thinks could be a good match (for example, Helga + Arnold = Gnarled Halo), musicals, Greek mythology (or mythology in general), flowers (cherry blossoms, lilies, lilacs, or any flower that fits symbolically in a situation), Chinese zodiac, Greek astrology, astronomy, whatever the equivalent D&D in Ha! is (Kings Rule doesn’t count, that’s more of a Magic: the gathering type of game), video games, daydreaming, talking about theories, brainstorming story ideas, and Yo Ernest!
Dislikes: Loud crowds, people seeing as well as laughing at her when she stims, liars, being pinned down, disappointing people she cares about, her social anxiety, her struggle of understanding people’s true intentions due to her poor observation of subtle social cues, her fear of people are just waiting to see her fail, being talked down to once people find out about her condition, being touched/hugged by people she isn’t close to or she didn’t initiate, people assuming she is smart when she really isn’t; she’s just passionate about certain topics, revealing her elf-like ears, and math.

Bio: Debora was a small-town girl from Tennessee that moved to Hillwood at the age of 5. She had no real ties to the place though except for her love the starry skies and all the wildflowers that grew there. Her parents decided to homeschool her at the age of 4 due to her being bullied for being different and annoying in preschool. For example, her last encounter with the group of kids that bullied her; chased her until she tripped, pinned her down, and pretended they were going to beat her with a big stick just to scare her. She doesn’t meet Arnold and the gang until the age of 11. Before that, she watched them from a distance behind her home window. However, their first, true encounter didn’t work out because Debora couldn’t take being laughed at due to a stimming incident reminiscent of the head hitting that Arnold did in his “I’m Crazy” number, only no music this time. Arnold tried to convince her that his friends were sorry and that they didn’t mean to make her sad. Debora was too afraid to try again though. Debora’s mother had her join the Campfire Lasses for a while to help with her social skills. She still kept tabs with Arnold through letters. She appeared to be making progress and had slightly better control of herself. Her birthday of 2001 however, something happened that made Debora question if she was even good enough to be friends with anybody. Would she always be too weird for people that they will never accept all of her, especially the ugly parts? She quit the Campfire Lasses at age 14; her heart just wasn’t in it anymore.
However, at the age of 15, due to events beyond her control, she had to go to public school so she can be accepted to colleges around Hillwood for they did not accept homeschoolers. Lucky for her, the school she could go to was PS118. Unlucky for her, Arnold wasn’t around to help her fit in with the sophomore class. With no one to help her fit in, she decides it would be best to just not to try at all. She’ll be polite in any way she can in hopes that people will notice her kindness, but she will not make the first move. She’s tired of being betrayed by people that claim that they want to be friends with her only to be abandoned the next day. Although, deep down she knew that this method wouldn’t work and people would be too caught up in their own groups to notice her. Besides, she needed all that time to work on her homework anyway.
However, due to some weird twist of fate, Debora somehow finds herself interacting with Edmund of all people at a party she didn’t even want to go to that Rhonda gave her an invitation to. Rhonda clearly only gave her it because Debora was a part of her class, just a plain, obligatory, pity invitation. To makes things weirder, Debora somehow can empathize with Edmund and his relationship with Wolfgang. Debora has spent so much of her life isolating herself because she never wanted to be hurt again by abusive people like Wolfgang. That time in preschool was still a trauma that she carries to this day. It was her first glimpse of reality that she was different from other kids and that people fear or hate things they can’t understand.
For one reason or another, Edmund the abused loser and Debora the lonely loser found comfort in each other and decided it might be nice if they hung out a bit more. Thus leads Debora and Edmund’s unlikely friendship having everybody around them confused, especially Wolfgang. Surely a girl that genuinely likes Edmund has to have something wrong with her. This leads to the butterfly effect of Wolfgang finding out Debora has Asperger’s syndrome, him exposing that information to the students of PS118, Debora having a break down in the supply closest, Edmund and Wolfgang’s falling out, Helga of all people come to give what Debora needs to hear in her time of need, Helga gaining a renewed purpose in an attempt to move on from Arnold, and Debora finds a true friend in Helga, Edmund, and Helga’s friends are by proxy. Sure, there are still people who treat her terribly when they found out she had a mental illness, but she’s finally content with people knowing because of all the sea of people that see her as a broken person, there are still a few good people that accept her, all of her.
Edit 8/2/2019
I gave her thick eyebrows because I thought she was too pretty and the point of her character is that she is plain looking.
Edit 11/24/2019
I changed her surname to have more of an Irish variant, even if it isn’t technically a real surname as far as I know.
Edit 12/5/2019
I decided to change her surname again so it could be a real Irish surname instead of an Irish variant of a British surname that’s only a variant on a first name basis.
I don't really have much to add here. I love Kathleen appeared again and she was able to handle Teddy perfectly. They are just so cute together and I would love to see more of them always!
Sometimes what’s important isn’t that you have the same interests as your partner, but that you take interest in your partner’s interests, and respect those interests - even if they’re the thing that kills them.
Kathleen’s pallet change will take some time getting used to, but I’ll personally be saying that she got her hair colored and started a new skincare regimen with the though of reeling Teddy in ^^;;
Just a she/her that loves animation, creating characters, and shipping a lot. Commissions are closed, sorry.
