Mythical Cool Kid

may you get as much as you give.

guy currently hurtling toward a migraine at a rate that would impress most astrophysicists: i wonder wgat is happening in my beautiful telephone

i hate the concept of a "noncompliance" in medicine. says absolutely scathing things about the medical and psych industry that a patient not consenting is seen as a problem to push through and a problem with the patient themself rather than someone exercising their right to informed consent that SHOULD BE FUCKING RESPECTED.

When I say personality disorders are ridiculously stigmatized by medical professionals, I mean it. Since having my BPD diagnosis removed from my chart I’ve noticed a big shift from medical professionals. Like, I’d been advocating for years about my chronic pain, but no one was willing to look into it. And now suddenly, after BPD no longer being my diagnosis, I mention my pain to my doctor, and she suddenly jumps into action, scheduling a pain assessment and getting ready to refer me to a specialist clinic. It’s so eerie how many doors open as soon as I didn’t have that specific label. The funny thing is, my symptoms haven’t changed. I’m still just as moody and traumatized as ever, yet I’m being treated with so much more respect now that it’s off my chart. Shoutout to my homies with personality disorders. Y’all do not deserve this bullshit from doctors.

happy one year anniversary to the time i was in vermont in a dorm with a carbon monoxide leak and jacked off to this painting

it’s such a basic part of the reality of disabled people as a whole but it’s STILL so hard to get ppl to understand that some people will simply die without 24/7 care. their care is not for comfort, it’s not for fun, it’s literally a matter of life and death. “if their care was taken away i’m sure they’d learn to suck it up like the rest of us!” – something ive heard time and time again. no they wouldn’t, they would die. they HAVE died. they continue to die as cuts are made to welfare and health. why is this so impossible for people to grasp.

they should breed dogs that bark at 1/5th volume and with a deep and soothing resonance that calms the nervous system

Biggest fuck-up ever is that people have to pay to become doctors

Like unironically we should be subsidising at least 50% of their educations. What do you mean we have a shortage of doctors we should have surplus. What do you mean they’re being overworked they should be treated like royalty, they can fix human bodies

I don’t care if some of them are only doing it for the money. I don’t care if all of them are only doing it for the money. Intentions don’t matter to the stitches in my nana’s leg or the ten billion other lifesaving treatments we all get at a detriment to their finances and mental wellbeing. Entire cities are kept alive by just a couple thousand of them what are we DOINGGGGG

If we had more, maybe it would be easier to get the shitty ones fucking replaced. The board isn't going to do much to the only endocrinologist in the state who takes Medicaid, you know? But if there were more than, idk, maybe 5? Maybe then?

More importantly if you needed less money and less physical stamina to become a doctor, people with less money and less physical stamina could become doctors, which would increase diversity and improve patient care.

*unable to ask if you want to get food with me* do you have any plans for what happens if you get hungry?

i have edibles and the strain promises a "chill" high so on the back there's an asterisk that says "chill has not been evaluated by the FDA" and i think it's only funny because they're not trying to be cutsey. it's in really small print in the middle of all the other warnings.

Whatttt is with the tendency of Tumblr users to seek absolution from every single person who offhandedly posts about disagreeing with something they do

I say this not unkindly, but firmly: to function as a member of a social species, you have to get comfortable with the idea that not everyone will like you

I feel like to really get this circulating as it should, we need it superimposed over the picture of the turkey going in the fridge. (I can't do it I'm on my phone.)

With the 250th anniversary it's likely to be especially bad this year!
