27. INTJ. Queer. Sometimes I feel fine. Like a normal person. Other times I'm consumed by my personal hell. Adhd, cptsd, panic & anxiety disorder. Nursing student.

It's not that I'm really interested in this thing, I'm just really uninterested in the other thing

So I found this super neat thing where medicare (aka insurance for older, retired people) makes a set of rules that tells doctors when the patient they admitted to the hospital is actually admitted or just under "outpatient observation." Then they act like they're being responsible by forcing the hospitals social workers to give the patient a paper they need to sign that says they're under observation so their insurance isn't going to cover a chunk of the bill.

Super cool

This kitten is really just being a bother to their littermate while they’re trying to take a nap. It keeps trying to groom their face, while getting distracted with what the human is doing. Siblings are just Like That.

This video actually provides quite a bit of great detail about cerebellar hypoplasia and dealing with these cats! I've dealt with a few in school but otherwise I haven't seen a severe case. They do tend to improve quite a bit as they age, when they get used to the way their body moves and are able to harness it in a bit.

This baby is so cute! Cerebellar hypoplasia is a somewhat common brain defect we see in kittens born from a momma cat infected with a virus called feline panleukopenia. We are very lucky to have a good vaccine for this virus, so thankfully panleukopenia in cats is not as common as it once was. In developing kittens it causes underdevelopment of the cerebellum, which is the part of the brain that controls (among other things) our grace and coordination of movement. If your cerebellum is stunted from birth you’re going to be pretty dang wobbly! As stated above these cats tend to adjust quite well to their wobbles and they don’t experience pain as a result of their neurological defect. I really really love seeing these kittens thrive in homes that are willing to take on an extremely clumsy kitten!

Don't forget you have none of the benefits of wetland plants (cooling, regulated evaporation, food and habitat for wildlife), when the canals go stagnant they breed tons more mosquitoes because they don't support the amphibians that eat them, it's no longer an accessible water source for bigger wildlife, storm water is faster and more dangerous in a straight channel than in a natural stream, the concrete and the speed prevent water from infiltrating into the soil and maintaining the aquifer... I could go on.

[rebeccathenaturalist]

Also the ability of wetlands to filter impurities out of the water, including human-made pollutants that otherwise would just end up flowing out into whatever lake, ocean or other body of water the wetland's contents eventually empty into. I mean, over time some of those pollutants (especially those that don’t break down quickly--or at all) will build up in that wetland, which is itself yet another reason to just, y’know, not let that stuff get out in the first place. But it sure matters a lot for whoever’s downstream in the meantime.

I'm having real issues finding a therapist. I really really hate virtual therapy. It feels so far away and impersonal to be talking on video or even worse on a phone. But the only place in the area is 100% virtual and seems to be planning to stay that way. I was on a waitlist for a different therapist, but after a few months, they updated their insurance policy and stopped taking mine. It looks like the only behavioral health associated with the hospital I work for is a Women's Mental Health and that just feels icky. Like I don't really identify as a woman, and I really don't want to think of my mental illness as a "women's issue." Plus it sort of looks like they focus on post-partum depression, PMDD, basic anxiety, depression (which are all important illnesses to be addressed, just not my thing)

[ID: a tag reading, “#don’t eat citrus if you have any mental health problems #the vitamin C is so bad for you” end ID]

losing my fucking mind over how people will come on here and say just the easiest to disprove absolutely inane lies. for no reason at all

[stranger-nights-ahead]

This is so funny because of how long a chain of telephone it is. The starting point is that grapefruit juice SPECIFICALLY can interact negatively with several mental health medications (notably, not amphetamines). Then this tumblr post* and MULTIPLE NEWS ARTICLES got popular, stating that consuming anything acidic (including vitamin C) within an hour of taking your ADHD meds would render them ineffective. In reality, a large dose of vitamin C taken directly with an amphetamine-based ADHD medication has the potential to cause a minor dampening effect, but has no effect on other ADHD meds. 

These presumably got filtered/combined into the idea that vitamin C is bad to take with ANY mental health meds, which then got turned into the idea that if you have mental health problems, scurvy may be right for you!

[enaykudisi]

Tldr vitamin C good. Grapefruit bad for meds

This is about Sci-Hub. yeah we get it.. gatekeep knowledge and protect the interests of capital…

[three-blogs-in-a-trenchcoat]

Listen, this is serious.

Do not use the website called Sci-Hub!

It lets people access scientific articles for free. This is dangerous. It helps the free flow of knowledge and reduces the competitive edge of all the people who worked really hard to have been born into a wealth.

Like, it’s literally a website where you can type in the DOI of an article and read it, without ever having to pay the publisher who exploited the author.

So, again, do not, under any circumstance, use Sci-Hub. I mean, can you imagine a world where knowledge is free and easily accessible to everyone? Even, y'know, poor people?

[whateverthebeeswant]

Libgen also has many books online, including textbooks, searchable by name, author, and ISBN. Can you imagine textbook companies not getting their hard-earned income from poor college students? Here is the link just so you make sure that you never accidentally stumble across this horrible, unethical website.

[three-blogs-in-a-trenchcoat]

Oh, and while we’re talking about books, if you’ve managed to stay clear from Libgen, definitely don’t go to zlibrary, where you can also find a lot of textbooks, but unfortunately they’re completely free.
