unrestrained summer fun

figured i'd get the word out bc i have not seen a single mention of this and i'm sure there are plenty of people who maybe comment on things they don't want on display for everyone to see on their blog lol. you can still look at your replies with it toggled off just no one else can, like locking the following and likes list

posts you comment on may show on your followers 'for you' page if you leave your replies publically available. they may, in the future, show in on your followers dashboard if your follower goes to their dash settings and enables this. apparently, if your likes are enabled, your followers can already see those on the dash if they've gone into preferences and selected to do so, which I was unaware of, and that seems to be disabled at default, but it's possible i disabled it previously and forgot about it ig

Just recently saw an asker whining over someone else's likes because it put the like on their dashboard and they couldn't handle it. That's a you problem, dear asker, that's not a problem with the person who liked something. Get over it or fix your dash yourself. You're responsible for what you see, not the person who liked something.

Like yeah it's nice to have medical history, it will come up at some point, there are things we would LOVE to know right this second when a person is wheeled in, like "do you take blood thinners? have you ever had pain like this before? is your facial paralysis new or has it been like that for a long time?" but besides "are you pregnant" none of of those immediate questions are sex-dependent, and, crucially, we can proceed WITHOUT all those pieces of information if we need to, even though they would be great to have. Pregnancy can be determined with a quick blood or urine test. There are situations where providers want to know a person's sex assignment at birth, but none of those are life and death emergency situations, they are situations where you're sitting down and talking with the patient, where aspects of a person's medical history can be discussed, ie "I smoked for 60 years and have a history of COPD, so actually that oxygen saturation is totally normal for me," or "I am a daily consumer of alcohol and it's been 6 hours since my last drink; I have had seizures in the past when I go into withdrawal," or "I have an allergy to penicillin," or "I have a uterus even though my external genitalia would not lead you to assume that." Please note that all of the previous examples are more important to know than the uterus one. We do not keep medical history on our IDs! That's all sex assigned at birth is; medical history. It's not crucial information, and it's not anyone's business unless you choose to disclose it.

lastly, if you're physically unable to do the things we (the black mold) warned you not to do above, you should never ever ask someone to help you or hire a service to do it.

Trust us. We, the mold, know much more about air conditioners than the people who make aerosol cans you can pick up for like $8 at home depot. Definitely do not do this a couple times a season.
