no one appreciates that i could be a million times worse

I think those fancomics where Calvin from Calvin and Hobbes is transgender are cute and fun but I also think it's a deep misunderstanding of Calvin's character to think he would transition into a heterosexual normie who goes to her high school reunion. That girl would have neopronouns and fang implants

Adult Calvin is a tattoo artist named Panthera who is the bassist in a terrible metal band called Captain Napalm and Hobbes helps do faer E injections

I know it's like 2 weeks too late to change it but I'm so mad I didn't realize that the band would obviously be called "Get Rid Of Slimy GirlS". I walk the road of shame

“marriage is a legal document that protects you, you’ve gotta decouple it in your brain from romance and amatonormativity” the fact that marriage is a legal document that protects and privileges you (that, might I add, generally isn’t valid without romance+sex) is LITERALLY amatonormativity. A legal status that privileges people in monogamous long-term romantic-sexual relationships IS AMATONORMATIVITY. That is *what it was coined to talk about.*

The book in which the term amatonormativity was coined is literally called "minimising marriage". How are people saying marriage isn't amatonormative? It's literally why the term exists!

hrt should be free and they should give it out at every medical clinic

Hell, many people with headache disorders don't even know that preventives & abortives are an option. Because they're told by everyone including their doctors that they just need to improve their lifestyle — stuff like drink more water, lose weight, watch what you eat, reduce your stress, get enough sleep. Which, as you know if you have one, is all very hard to do with an unmedicated chronic pain condition.

There are in fact lots of options that work for many people. My chronic cluster headaches are completely managed with a specific blood pressure medication (verapamil) and a CGRP inhibitor. Down from an average of 16 attacks per month and up to 3 per day during my last cluster period/bout to 0-2 a month since the verapamil started working. Proper meds can genuinely change your life.

And even if you have a family doctor who is confident and good at prescribing and managing cgrp inhibitors, the fucking insurance companies just say fucking no. I regularly am filled with hate for having to try alllll kinds of bullshit before the Medication That Works. Or they make me give my patient atogepant (the cgrp inhibitor that has the highest side effect rate and that I just do not prescribe because of how it sucks shit) and wait for them to get sick from it before dragging ass on literally anything else that works. Grrrrrrrrrr

i literally love saying "ON IT BOSS!!!!!" whenever someone asks me to do something like i'm some sort of henchman. it doesn't matter if they're my boss or not for real even because in the moment they are, and whatever they requested of me i'm on it

god i need something so bad. but what is it

i must say, i am a huge fan of when a book is in the middle of a very exciting plot containing many interesting problems when out of nowhere for a few pages it's like, "hey by the way, real quick, here's a detailed explanation of the city's water filtration system! i'm telling you this for a reason and you should worry about it. anyway! haha okay back to the plot" and you just get to be Scared for a while
