fucking the police and not fucking children is good, actually

ugh, now i have that mental image in my head.

if you live in the US and are on Medicaid, you might be able to get a box of dental supplies for free. i have UniCare and they sent me an electric toothbrush, toothpaste, and floss. i'm sure other Medicaid/Medicare insurance companies offer similar, so make sure to check their websites.

please stop scratching me :( hurty

holy shit, i am way too high for this

Kira's face at the end always gets me. the way it cuts off is perfect comedic timing.

a Domino's white sauce, spinach, and feta pizza fucking slaps. but Little Caesar's is cheaper than both, so 🤷🏼

i had a similar experience, and now i'm permanently disabled and require a mobility aid, and i'm not even 30 yet. the thing that saved me was getting a new PCP who actually believed me and got me in for testing— apparently my lumbar vertebrae look like a crushed pop can. so much of this could've been avoided if i had gotten treatment early. if you can, try and find a female doctor, one kind of younger, because in my experience, they're the ones that will actually listen to you— especially if you're a woman, or AFAB. if there's a disability advocacy or support group in your area, or even online, hot them up. they'll be able to let you know which doctors to avoid, at the very least. if you live in a rural or semi-rural area, you might even have to go into the bigger cities to find a decent one. most of all, you know your fucking body. you know your lived experience. don't let anyone gaslight you into thinking your pain isn't real, or doesn't matter. it's scary and painful to try and find a decent medical provider, and it can feel like you're stuck searching forever. but there is someone out there that'll help you. please don't give up looking.

because it's easier to come after real people, since we don't know all loopholes, can't jerk them around indefinitely, have no individual power, can't afford lawyers, and are all around an easier mark.

sometimes knocking yourself out when you have sleep issues/night terrors can just leave you trapped in the nightmare. 0/10 would not recommend. there's also a non-soporific med for nightmares that can be prescribed, but its original purpose was a blood pressure med, so it can cause fainting and dizziness :/

mid price point rice cooker. not as much of a cool/fun answer as the rest, but it lets me meal prep for days. i don't like cooking for just myself, but it's so easy to use that it doesn't feel like a waste. plus i always overcook my rice on the stove 😅

it's the difference between a creepy dude in a trench coat telling you to reach into his pocket, and your grandma telling you to reach into her purse.
