PSA to fan creators who don't have a lot of regular contact with children: They are almost always bigger than you think. A 1-year-old baby may already be walking. A toddler is likely already hip-high. A 10-year-old may already be taller than at least one of their parents. A 14/15 year old may already have reached their adult height.

HISTORY HAS BEEN ENGRAVED INTO THIS POST

[libraryofgage]

Having been a librarian for almost 3 years now, I find myself wondering what being a librarian in Gotham would be like

Like....the professional ethics are still in play, right? The core ideas of open access to information free of judgement so long as patrons follow library rules like don't smoke in the building?

I just, any Robin except Red Hood and Oracle (I feel like they'd Know and Respect the librarian ethics) coming in and it's a conversation like this:

Librarian, sitting at the front desk by the entrance: hello, welcome to the library, how can I help you today :^)

Robin, returning a book with burnt edges: so, uh, did [insert villain] steal this or something

Librarian, after checking the book back in: all I can say is that it was checked out a few days ago. If you want to know more, I'd need to see an official warrant :^)

Robin: right, like, [villain] escaped Arkham Asylum a few days ago, did you seriously let them borrow "Pyrotechnics for Dummies?"

Librarian: if they requested the book, we gave it to them :^)

Robin: they were in Arkham uniform????

Librarian: we often get former incarcerated people who visit the library for computer access immediately upon release :^)

Robin: but you just???? Gave known villian???? A book that would lead to crime and explosions??????

Librarian: its not my job to assume what they do with the information I provide :^)

Harley Quinn, entering with her hyenas, both of which have those legit Service Animal Vests on: hiya, [librarian]! Got some books for ya

Librarian: Hello, Miss Quinn, just leave them there

Harley: sure thing, toots. Heya, little bat, never seen you around before. Kiddie section is over there

Robin, after Harley heads towards some shelves with her hyenas: Harley Quinn???? Those are hyenas???? Dangerous animals?????

Librarian, calmly checking in books: they're service animals that have been trained to perform a specific function related to Miss Quinn's health and safety :^)

Robin: you've gotta be fucking with me

Librarian, suddenly incredibly serious: please watch your language, Robin, or I'll have to ask you to leave

Robin: ME??????

[jupiterjames]

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.

Kill them with kindness

BUT KILL THEM

[corvidcall]

to anyone in the areas impacted by the wildfire smoke, my #1 biggest piece of advice as someone whos been dealing with wildfire smoke in the NW united states for years, is build yourself a Corsi-Rosenthal Cube

they perform as well as expensive HEPA air cleaners, and are comparatively VERY inexpensive. all you need is a box fan, 4 air filters, a piece of cardboard, and some duct tape!!!!

i think it took us maybe a half hour to put ours together, if that, and we replace the filters every 3 months. it's really made a HUGE difference, both when the air quality is bad, but also with our allergies

[o0fyuu0o]

Saw these easy to read instructions on Twitter. Stay safe 💚

[sun-cheyne]

Also just a handy, DIY air filter in general, if a bit bulky. For a less bulky and cheaper (but also less effective) solution, you can simply tape one filter to the fan, cut a shroud if you'd like.

[snowriddenwolf]

just FYI, this is quite literally what the climate scientists at my work who specialized in wildfire smoke impacts recommend. it works great, it's cheap to make, and it will make a noticeable impact on your air quality.

[mechanicalriddle]

i have asthma & keep one of these running in my room perpetually. after I set it up the difference in my sleep quality was pretty much night and day. Dont waste your time on proprietary air filters; SIMPLY bust out the duct tape
