Hi/Bi Babe

26. Anxious baby. I am a level 8 adult and I sometimes make my parents proud.

PSA for malwarts employees: check your PPTO balance. They're going to take it to pay you for thanksgiving. If you don't want them to, you gotta go in and request unpaid time off. Same with Christmas. Don't let them steal your PPTO (unless you want the holiday paid)

pandemic episode of malcolm in the middle: malcolm struggles to reconcile his commitment to quarantine safety measures with the fact that all the girls his age are so lonely and isolated that they're suddenly willing to go on dates with HIM, of all people. reese discovers that egging neighbors' houses still counts as a "socially-distanced" activity and has the time of his life. dewey does some mental calculus and realizes that he gets fewer wedgies per day from his brothers than he does from the school bully and decides he'll keep these lockdowns in effect at all costs, so he starts calling in fake pandemic data to local health districts to bump the numbers up. lois gets in a physical altercation with a non-masker at the lucky aide and starts duct taping people's mouths shut, which craig finds both alarming and oddly alluring. (craig then immediately gets infected from licking his hand to slick back his hair in a bid to impress her.) hal works from home but, after slacking off on the family computer all day, is driven to obsession by the thought of becoming the digital solitaire world champion.

pretty shitty how baseline human activities like singing, dancing and making art got turned into skills  instead of being seen as behaviors

so now it’s like ‘the point of doing them is to get good at them’ and not ‘this is a thing humans do, the way birds sing and bees make hives’.

I know I’ve posted this before, but it bears repeating.

This is a thing humans do; you don’t have to be good at it to enjoy it.

My boss doesn’t take me seriously because I’m the youngest in the office by a decade and spend most of my time making his life hell (unrelated problems).

Yesterday he asked me to help him with a problem with a program we use but wasn’t actually listening to me when I tried to help, so it wasn’t working. He asked who the expert on this program was in our office and I told him it was me. He asked who the expert was within the organisation and I told him it was me. He sent me out of his office saying he would call IT to fix it. So I very patiently went back to my desk, where my phone rang a minute later, with IT asking me to help someone who had a problem with the program.

The sheer unadulterated joy I felt making direct eye contact with my manager through the glass wall of his office whilst I answered his phone call will fuel me for WEEKS.

Side note on this: all those college conservatives saying liberal professors are shutting them down because of their conservative ideas and refusing to hear otherwise? In my experience the “shut down” is just being asked to DEFEND their position for the first time and not accepting shitty half thought out “proofs” that fall apart on their own.

FACTS!

Additions: if your viral load is suppressed by medication to the point it’s undetectable, it’s considered untransmittable, even without condoms. Children with HIV+ carriers are usually given medication when they’re born, to make sure any of the virus doesn’t take hold (which we also do to adults who fear they’ve been exposed, it’s called PEP ((Post Exposure Prophylaxis)), which is a month of medication and must be started within 72 hours of exposure).

(There’s also PreP - Pre Exposure Prophylaxis, which is taking medication if you feel you are at risk of being exposed to HIV, whether through sexual partners or sharing injection needles)

This is why we need universal free healthcare - so people can go on and have happy, healthy lives despite the HIV diagnosis. Nobody should die or live in fear when the treatment is so damn simple and effective.

Do people not actually know what’s happening here? Or do conservatives just throw out their brain when they join the party?

This is an N95 mask with a hospital mask over the top. The N95 mask filters out particles. It protects the person wearing it. It has an exhale valve, so people who aren’t assholes (and know what they’re doing) wear another mask over the top to protect other people, in case they unknowingly have COVID-19. Anyone who’s been to see a medical professional in person this year would have seen them wearing exactly this combination of masks.

This is the mask combination worn by someone who knows their science and cares about the health of the people they come into contact with.

[punkrorschach]

It also allows for the top (less hard to get and more disposable) mask to be switched out regularly while keeping the N95 on consistantly, which helps prevent germs from being spread even more!

This is what I had to wear during the height of the pandemic working at the hospital. I got to hour 15.5 of a 16 wearing both before I started to feel slightly light-headed (I also didn’t drink much water or eat much that day so there were other factors)
