So I'm broke. I am able to help people with their school work for $5 per class per person . Message me if interested. I can help with Algebra, Geometry, intro stats, History, English, general Science, Biology, Agriculture, Arts and Humanities, and some Pre-Cal. Doing school work during the quarantine sucks, so I'm willing to help out with what I know
Capitalism creates scarcity, suffering, and poverty.
Socialism targets those systemic problems.
Exactly.
Communism is about making everyone equal. Because people don’t really want to be equal it implodes. You can’t eliminate relative poverty.
Democratic socialism is about eliminating absolute poverty.
Socialism done right means:
Nobody has to die of preventable disease.
Nobody has to be homeless.
Nobody has to go hungry.
It does not mean that the person who works hard and earns their expensive vacation doesn’t get to go on that vacation, for example.
(The uber-rich are a different thing. I’m absolutely in favor of taking some of their money away from them to achieve “nobody has to”. They’re only using it to keep score).
So I need money to get an apartment and get on my feet in a few months when I move out from my grandmother's. I don't want to beg for money so I'm doing writing commissions. It doesn't really matter what it is, whether it be an essay or fanfiction. I've decided on about 50¢ per ten words. Let me know if anyone is interested. I'm not really experienced, but I will do the absolute best I can.

Okay, but THIS.
My therapist only recently understood that when I said, “I don’t know how to make this phone call or make this appointment.” I very literally meant I didn’t know what to do. I can dial the phone, but what do I say EXACTLY? What questions are going to be asked? What do I need to have on hand? What if they ask me something I don’t know the answer to?
I’m one of those people that needs very specific and detailed instructions if I’m doing something for the first time.
Be patient with people. We all have our struggles. Sometimes it can make all the difference in the world knowing someone can spare a few minutes to care about you and walk you through something that’s hard for you.
Bless the hated is becoming my motto really and I love it..!
A bit of snake anotomy!

Why do parents always assume their kid is lazy when they get bad grades? Like maybe help your kids by talking to them, not punishing them. This is how I failed math and didn’t even know I had number dyslexia for years.
When my sister was in high school she struggled a LOT with math. Like I know a lot of people find it really difficult (myself included), but I mean she was really really bad at it. She has always been a very smart, creative and sensitive person, but math made no sense to her, to the point where passing seemed impossible.
I will always remember that twice a week, around the kitchen table, my sister would sit down with my dad for hours, and they would try to work out her math homework. I should mention that my dad is an artist, and art teacher. Truth be told I think he struggled with math just as much if not more then she did. But twice a week you could hear them downstairs, going back and forth, trying to figure it out together. Some nights would be smooth and easy, some nights I could hear them arguing from one floor up about factors or equations, not in anger but in mutual frustration.
I remember the day that she passed. My sister couldn’t wait until my dad’s school day ended, so she called him at work. She gleefully announced to him “I got a D-!”. We could hear him through the phone as he exclaimed “She got a D!” excitedly to his class. Still through the phone we heard his students clapping, laughing and whooping in congratulations. Seldom has a grade in our household been so celebrated.
Just thought a shitty picture like this should be accompanied by a story about a person’s parents who actually gave a shit about helping their kid instead of mocking and punishing them.

reblogging for the story. READ IT.
THE STORY
If it weren’t for my dad I would not be able to read and write. I was born1971 and people really didn’t know or care that some people struggle not because they are lazy but they just fuckin’ can’t do what comes easy to most.
My dad did what that father did.
Dad was working 12/14/16 hour days.
And still… he sat down and read up on shit, talked to my teacher - and then he saved me. Reading has made me. I am a reader. The one thing people know about me is: she reads.
Be like dad.
Don’t be a tit.
my dad was like that with math too, i am a very creative person who as adhd, so if teachers weren’t hands on i wouldn’t get anything and space out, become restless or day dream, this is why i was so good at biology and other science classes, cause we got to do experiments and watch videos, all that jazz.
math though, they just kinda told us how to do it and expected us to follow.
and like math process themselves just don’t make sense to me, like there are multiple equations for the same thing and blah blah blah
it was at the end of the quarter and i wasn’t passing math class at all, it was frustrating my mother to the point that she was screaming at me, when i couldn’t do anything about it
i was sitting in our little office balling my eyes out and my dad comes in and asks what is wrong, after i explain it to him, he said that it was okay if i didn’t pass, i could just try again, and even if i pass with a D they would be fine with it
this gave me reassurance and i passed with a D
he was proud of me for passing
that is how parenting should be done
Some things it is A-OK to say to your doctor:
No
Wait
Stop
(These are full sentences! You do not need to say any more)
I am not comfortable.
I am not comfortable, I would like…
you to wait a moment.
another person in the room.
everyone else out of the room.
a doctor/nurse of my same gender to preform this test/procedure.
the person who came with me to this appointment in the room.
you to explain everything before you begin.
you to tell me what you are doing as you go.
to do this another day.
I want to get a second opinion before we proceed.
I don’t understand, please repeat that.
I don’t understand, please explain more simply.
Please say that slower/spell that, I want to do some research myself.
I would like to talk to [someone in my life, ie my parents to SO] before making this decision.
No, I do not need to talk to [anyone] before making this decision, I am confidant on my own and am ready to proceed.
What are the side effects of this medication/procedure? What are the potential complications?
Why are you recommending/prescribing this specific thing?
What other treatment options are there? Why are you choosing this?
Would your treatment plan be different if I were a man/woman older/younger had kids, etc? Why are you choosing this one then?
IS there anything I should know about this treatment you have not yet told me?
I understand you say not to, but If I choose to do X, against medical advice, what risks am I running? (ie taking recreational drugs while on medication)
How much will this cost?
Are there any less expensive options/tests we can run first?
Is there a generic of this medication you can prescribe instead?
I think you are not understanding me, I said…
You are not listening to me, please let me finish describing my symptoms.
You are not understanding how much pain I am in, let me clarify…
I do not think it is anxiety/depression/my weight/etc, what else could it potentially be?
I think by assuming it is anxiety/depression/my weight/etc you are ignoring some symptoms. Please listen again and let’s discuss what else it could be.
Please write in my chart that you are not testing for X and why not.
I am in enough pain/this is detrimental enough to my life that non-treatment is not an option. If you can not treat this/figure out what is wrong, to whom can you refer me?
Please write (or help me write) a summary of what we did today so I don’t forget
What are our next steps?
If [what you are recommending] is ineffective, what would my next steps be? What other doctor should I talk to?
What is the best way to contact you if I have additional questions or issues?
Remember, a doctor is a person YOU pay because they know a lot about bodies in general, to help you figure out whats best for YOUR body. It is still your body, not theirs! They know about medicine but you are the expert in your body. Don’t let them act like they own you. Don’t leave if you’ve still got questions, don’t stay if you’re uncomfortable, and feel free to insist on ANY information you want.
ask questions, advocate for yourself. Be aware!!
Good list!
“Remember, a doctor is a person YOU pay because they [paid a lot to] know a lot about bodies in general, to help you figure out whats best for YOUR body.”
Just felt it wouldn’t hurt to point out that doctors aren’t inherently geniuses – it costs blood, sweat, money, time and tears to learn medicine (which is probably why some doctors end up behaving like they DO own your body? not cool).
great self-advocacy post, that list is golden!
Also, especially if you have specific anxieties, we may not know. As part of my pre-Pap history I always gently let the patient know that sometimes paps are awkward or uncomfortable, and I want them to tell me so I don’t cause them distress. If they don’t automatically know what I’m hinting at, I confirm if they’ve had sex before and will ask if they’ve ever done when they didn’t really want to. This gives someone who is uncomfortable admitting that they’ve been raped or assaulted (especially in the context of a relationship, because we don’t teach that this is still assault) an easy way to let me know. Then I can find ways to make them more comfortable.
For providers: look up the Trauma-Informed Gyn Exam. I do all my paps/pelvics this way and I’ve never had any of my patients be uncomfortable.
This is fantastic. Advocacy is SO important
this is THE FUNNIEST suggestion Word’s grammar thing has ever given me
damn CNN tried to get #AskACop trending but it backfired completely and twitter isn’t holding back
Vintage on disability rights.
Don’t let the black and white trick you. The Capitol Crawl was in 1990. This is not ancient history.
This was in 1990.
Reblogging this again, because I think about this a lot. This happened in 1990. We have actual footage of this protest, with color and sound. We can look these things up and see and hear the things that the protestors said. This was not that long ago. This battle may have been won, but the war disabled people are fighting for our rights is far from over.
