I like tilapia fried in garlic olive oil, roasted asparagus, and cous cous. I eat it at least 3x a week for lunch. It’s easy and cheap and freezes well.

I do meal prep once a week with my mom. We just get together at her place and cook like 10 or 12 meals and put them in containers and I freeze them. Cheaper than TV dinners and it’s easy lunch and dinner for the week.

I absolutely despise cooking, so taking the ingredients to my parents’ place forces me to cook. At my house, I can just procrastinate.

If Reba has had work done, her surgeon is incredibly good. I can’t even tell and I’m really good at seeing that kinda thing

Wall of my parents’ tiny neighborhood and use it as a compound. They have major river access and there are plenty of big yards for agriculture. There’s also plenty of blue collar workers to do a lot of hands-on stuff. I’d be in charge of animal husbandry since I’m really good at it. My mom would do plants.

My beagle was running around the yard and his big ol ears were flapping around. My goldendoodle just sat there while the beagle ran circles around her as fast as he could.

Holy fuck she’s 70!? She looks incredible!

I don’t take it that way at all.

“Know your worth.”

I’ve struggled with self-worth my whole life and I’m finally taking a stand for myself both in my professional and personal life. It feels great tbh.

Honestly, calling this admin retarded is valid because a lot of them genuinely seem to have an IQ low enough to get that medical diagnosis.

I have two that go hand in hand. One cannot exist without the other in my moral compass.

Acceptance and resistance.

Accept the things you truly cannot change and resist the injustices/cruelties that you can take a stand for and help to change.

Took me a hell of a long time to learn to accept certain things as absolutes, like the fact that suffering is an inherent part of life, but I have always been one to fight against things that can be changed. Not all suffering should be inherent to the human experience, though, and a lot of it can be fought against.

Trail of Tears 2 Electric Boogaloo

Well fuck. I work at an MSP and we sell exclusively sell computers. 💀

I’m fortunate enough to have really great parents. Like exceptionally great. I get legitimately really sad for others when I hear that they don’t have awesome parents. I can’t imagine going a day without talking to my mom. She and I talk every morning to make sure we both get up and get ready for the day. My stepfather and I don’t talk as often as my mom and I do, but he has been my only true father figure.

My biological father was an absolute piece of shit for most of my life, but he got his shit together and I see him as a good friend now. He and I talk almost every day, mostly about pets or work.

Don’t shame notepad! Just the other day I had to alter a host file so a computer could talk to a server! That’s a very important thing and I wouldn’t have been able to do it without trusty notepad!

Any physical therapy/rehab centers under Select Medical. I worked in one of their regional offices processing insurance claims and was exposed to the grossest type of capitalism. Profit through healthcare.

I did my best to make claims take an insanely long time to fully process so the patients weren’t hit with their absurd bills right after they just got done with major medical issues. I kept one guy’s outrageous bill in limbo the entire 9 months I worked there. He was a local to my area and I knew by the info in the system that he could not afford those bills. I made sure he didn’t even see the bills the whole time I was at that job.

I had my ankle reconstructed a couple of years ago and I knew the bills were gonna be crazy. It took 4 months for me to get them and by that time I was already back to work. I like to think that someone was keeping my bills in limbo while I got back on my feet. I paid off the bills a little then lost track of it all and then decided that I’m just not paying medical shit unless I am forced to pay on the spot.

Unacceptable tbh

The only person I’ve seen actually benefit from back surgery is my sister getting rods put along her spine for her scoliosis. It helped her tremendously. She has some recurring nerve pain from it, but her organs aren’t being fucked up anymore and her back doesn’t hurt constantly. She also got so much taller.

Don’t make promises you can’t keep. :(

The French liberating me and the other non-crazy folk would be the best rn.

What even is this timeline

I did. It looks a little rough, but doesn’t seem to be complete toast. There’s also another mechanism that might be malfunctioning. I adjusted it like I was instructed to and the dripping got worse.
