My ideal found family? Let me think… a neutered vampire, a recovering magic addict, ancient energy in the form of a teenager, a carpenter, a woman raised to believe she was a demon, the chosen one, an autistic ex-demon, and their librarian

Did I just employ the "Treat Them Like You are A Kindergarten Teacher Again" method with my insurance company today? I surely did. Did it work? Probably better than intended because I made an actual doctor feel contrite.

So, my insurance has been trying to not cover my SNRI because it is new on the market and no generic available yet, so pricey.

I apply for a refill and the request gets locked for review. Again. For the 3rd time.

This time I call and immediately ask to speak to the actual doctor making these clinical decisions. Very politely. Must be a slow day because they allow it.

ME: [Teacher voice] I'm calling in regards to the SNRI you have placed a lock on. Why was this decision made?

DOC: Well, there are dozens of other medications on the market in that tier, and far cheaper for you and [insurer]. We have sent a request to your doctor to consider alternatives.

ME: I am aware of that. So, can you do me a HUGE favor and look up my prescription history really quickly and tell me how many SSRIs and SNRIs were only filled once in 2022 for me, showing they were poorly tolerated?

DOC: It looks like eight.

ME: Great job! Now, can you please look at my genetic test for psychiatric drug tolerance and tell me how many medications are listed in the safe category?

DOC: Two.

ME: Awesome! Now, can you tell me what type that other drug is that I'm not taking?

DOC: Yeah, totally, it's an MAOI.

ME: That's correct, you're really knowledgeable! Should I be taking something as dangerous as an MAOI with my other medications, or even just in general?

DOC: It's contraindicated for sure.

ME: It is! So true! So, last question since you've been incredibly smart and helpful. Is it less expensive for [insurer] to pay out for the medication knowing they already get a huge manufacturer discount anyway, or is it more expensive for them to pay for me to need potentially long-term inpatient psychiatric care?

DOC: I'll clear the code, ma'am and flag it as medically necessary. I'm sorry about this.

ME: I appreciate you SO MUCH. You have a great day now.

(answer is on a different poll)

Remaining time: 6 days 19 hours

More Round 1 Polls

Tournament rules under the cut!

In round 1, all albums will have enough polls to include each song on the album (including deluxe/vault tracks - not including remix/acoustic versions).

For round 2, the top 4 will be pitted against one another again, distributing the votes from songs that didn't reach the top 4.

(Round 2.5 will take place for TTPD: The Anthology, as side A and side B will be competing individually up until this point. Round 2.5 will include the top 2 from each side to determine the final top 2 overall.)

(If at any point there is a tie for the last place of a bracket, a 1 day deciding poll will take place between just the tied songs.)

In round 3, the top 2 will be put to the final test to determine the album thesis!

btvs AU where everything is the same but as soon as Tara is introduced to the gang Giles silently puts on a little PFLAG pin

[movietonight]

like this

[movietonight]

invented a btvs episode in my mind where the B plot is Giles fighting a demon or whatever at a pflag meeting without telling anyone and the gang crashes the meeting when the A plot comically intertwines with the B plot. Cut to the meeting leader being like "aw is that your daughter :)" followed by a scene where Buffy complains about Giles lying that she's his daughter and Giles is like "I actually told them Willow was my daughter because telling strangers that you want to be a better ally to your former mentee's friend is insane" and Buffy gets so upset and jealous about not being the pretend daughter that she's like "actually I could be bisexual too did anyone ever consider that" and everyone is like "uhhh 👀"
