Fandom:

Adults: *create a space for other adults*

Minors*: *come into that space* 

Minors: this isn’t a safe space for kids!!

Adults: …..uhh no, it’s not.

Minors: why are you personally attacking me personally?

Adults: ….????????………… 

Minors: I know you want to fuck children

Me: *looks at fic with one character that’s in his 40′s and another that’s in his 50′s, with no children in sight* 

Me: ………please get out of my house

(I still get a lot of responses to this post calling me a pedo and I am t i r e d of this bottom-of-the-barrel quality discourse)

* this obviously doesn’t apply to all minors, and to all those minors (like me, when I was your age!) that manage to enjoy and participate in fandom without calling everyone a pedophile, I appreciate you.

[littlesystems]

Adults: we want to write/draw porn of these fictional adult characters.

Minors: that’s not appropriate for children.

Adults: yep! that’s why it’s tagged as explicit and has a warning for mature content and also is tagged for various sex acts in case you’re not into that.

Minors: that type of content makes me uncomfortable.

Adults: we totally get that but that’s why the tags and warnings are on it.

Adults: look you even have to agree:

This work could have adult content. If you proceed you have agreed that you are willing to see such content.

Adults: so if you’re not into that type of thing then you can just skip over it.

Minors: it make me uncomfortable.

Adults: ……then… don’t… read it?

Minors: no. 

Minors: you should stop writing it.

Adults: no.

JUST FUCKING SAYING

[cakemagemaeve]

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. If you’re old enough to be using the internet unsupervised, then you’re old enough to be learn how to avoid content that upsets you. Adult fans and content creators are not here to be your babysitters.

this is why its depressing to work in a pharmacy.

[iatrogenic]

I was definitely a profit killer when I worked in a pharmacy (which honestly was my favorite job in the entire world, but it was short-lived and nowadays you can’t work at a pharmacy like that, it’s all tied in with corporate retail and no one should ever trust me with a cash register ever). It was not, however, actually a profit killer for the pharmacy, just for the drug companies, so no one cared. These days I do medical billing, which means I actually bill OUT from hospitals so I’m mostly spending my professional time taking money away from insurance companies. 

I will now impart all of my profit killing resources onto you, in case you don’t know them. I think most of you know them, now. But just in case you don’t.

THIS IS US-CENTRIC. I’M SORRY. 

1. GoodRx - this thing has an app now, so you can look up the best places to get your expensive medicines at the lowest possible prices without insurance on the go, and you no longer have to print coupons because you can just hand over your phone or tablet. Times have changed for the better with GoodRx. Definitely use it before trying to fill your scrip, because it will tell you the best place to go. (You can do that on the website, too.)

2. NeedyMeds - Needymeds is basically the clearinghouse of drug payment assistance. They have their own discount cards, but also connections to many patient assistance programs run by drug companies themselves. They are good assistance programs, too.

3. Ask your county - This is not a link. This is a pro tip. Most county social services will have pharmacy discount programs for people with no and/or shitty pharmaceutical coverage. You can often just find them hanging around at social services offices; you can just pick one up and walk off with it. 

4. Ordering online - There are a few safe online pharmacies. I keep a little database in a text file on my computer. Most of them are courtesy of CFS forums, my mother or voidbat, so a lot of that is a hat tip to other people, but if you’re in need of a place to get a drug without a prescription … first I’ll make sure you 100% know what you’re doing for safety reasons and then I’m happy to turn over a link. 

5. Healthfinder - A government resource that helps find patient assistance programs in your area. This might also point out the convenient county card thing. RxHope is something a lot of people get pointed to via Healthfinder that’s a good program.

6. Mental Health America - Keeps a list of their best PAPs for psychiatric medications, which can be some of the most expensive and a lot of pharmacy plans don’t cover them at all.

This is so important ppl.

Good Rx Saved my family a hundred dollars a month while I was getting signed up for CHIP seriously it’s a life savor especially for ridiculously expensive drugs like abilify

[motivation-gems]

Useful info, friends! ;)

[quietborderlineinfo]

Since many of our followers are on medications, I feel like this would be an important resource. -Luna

[will-work-for-spoons]

Also! Some drug companies have patient assistance programs where they send you the drug for FREE if you are uninsured, or if your insurance doesn’t cover that drug.

Do a Google search for “patient assistant programs” + (your med), or search the manufacturers website. Sometimes the info is online; other times you have to call.

Even some of the big name pharma companies have this. It’s certainly not all companies, or all meds, but it is worth a shot.

Before Obamacare, I lost insurance and couldn’t pay for my mood stabilizers (kiiiiinda important to have those when you’re bipolar.) I was on generic Lamictal, but I went to the official Lamictal website, filled out a form with a valid prescription, and they mailed my meds to me every month for free.

If you know anything about bipolar disease, you know that that was a literal life saver. Patient assistance programs ftw!

[comtessedebussy]

This is so important given the recent vote to repeal Obamacare. And the cartoon above is so on point They’re literally voting to kill people. Literally.

[thebibliosphere]

Some of my meds are no longer going to be partially covered by my ridiculously expensive private insurance. I just used the GoodRX website to look it up, and I can either spend $40 at Target to pay for one of them out of pocket–per month–, or I can get it at Sams Club for $4. No that is not a typo. The drug I need to take every single day to keep my allergies from spiraling out of control (yay auto-immune bullshit) is literally ten times cheaper at Sams Club. Holy shit.

I hate how the “bailout” of farmers has been portrayed as an act of like resentful charity. You do remember what farmers do right? The purpose of their jobs? Without farmers we would have no food. If any part of American society that should immediately get tax payer money to “bail them out” it is farmers.

rdj kissing josh brolin on the lips is such a power move. the man doesn’t give a single fuck. he’s the male protagonist archetype of this century but he will kiss as many guys as he pleases because he can and there’s nothing hollywood can do about it

[tinynebula]

i love how the media has rdj as this manly hetero Man Of Iron™ but he lives on a diferent dimension where sexuality is whatever the fuck he wants it to be. he will kiss man and women as he pleases. he will dress in pink and yellow and not give a single fuck.

[iwantcupcakes]

[theironman]

robert has always not given a single fuck for people’s views in what he should wear and how openly affectioned he can be with men. he’s not here for fragile masculinity and heterosexuality. he will continue to kiss, hug and shower them all with love.

[lostinthoughtsandfeelings]

😍

[daydur]

Since the photos above focus on him kissing men, I feel the need to also add a few examples of his i don’t give a fuck outfits:

[iolanthee]

1) he’s a fashion disaster

2) all the guys getting kisses from him are literally b e a m i n g . they love it. they want more

So there's a very good possibility that I scared the stuffing out of our local door knocking bible peeps. I love in the middle of literally no where. On a farm. Surrounded by corn. One knocks on my door early on a Sunday and I don't know your vehicle, I will answer the door with a shotgun in my hands. Too many homes get broken into for me to open my door to strangers without some sort of protection.

Guess what it was, and still is the state sport today.

Living with an autoimmune disease is hard. Sometimes it affects your mobility. Very often you are frequently ill. In almost all cases you are always tired, with all of your energy spent fighting the disease that is consuming your body. Fighting it merely by being alive. The unending pain and malaise can make it difficult to percieve other issues. People may see you as appearing stronger than you actually are, because your disability is invisible. And even though it may be directly attacking one or a few of your organs/joints/systems, in reality the disease affects all of you, whether it can be seen or not.

I returned from the doctor with some bad news. The disease that has negatively impacted my mobility is also having a very bad effect on my vital organs. I will require further testing and a treatment plan, and this will be very expensive. I’ve been doing the best I can but it’s not enough. I work so hard, and I will have to work even harder to get through this. Here is how you can help.

I’ve been selling nerdy drawstring backpacks at my convention booths for months, and they have been a hit! Many have encouraged me to sell them online and I now have a very good reason to do so. All proceeds from these backpacks will go towards my medical treatment. They are available in 2 sizes, small (10"x15", $25) and large (15"x17, $28). They are all handmade and fully lined by me. To order a backpack, please email [email protected] with the subject ‘Order Backpack’ and clearly state what style and size you would like in the email. (See backpack styles here)

If you would like to help but don’t need a bag, please share this post. If you would like to contribute directly, there is a donate button on my Tumblr. Thanks for your support guys. ❤

no lie

i just took a call at work regarding a truck that I’m quite familiar with, old bastard asked me if I was capable of selling him a truck because i was a little girl. Did you really just ask me that? Are you fucking kidding me? Yes, my having a vagina inhibits me from being knowledgeable and dealing your sexist pig ass.

So last week I had to have my 13 year old bulldog down. My girlfriend went with me. Her last meal was a burger and an ice cream cone. I'm devastated but I know she's not in pain anymore. Sometimes being a responsible adult and making decisions sucks ass
