Hm. I suppose, after like 2 years of having that one art challenge as my pinned, I should make an actual pinned post.
(Adding ABOVE the cut: Do NOT follow if you think the situation involving the TADC VAs saying racist remarks on stream was not serious or that an apology wasn't necessary. I cannot accept or deny the apology as it is not my place to but I can say that the Fandom response was genuinely disgusting and I do not want those who support the actions on or interacting with my blog.)
Squid/Saturn, either works! Mostly I go by Squid tho.

one of my friends in a discord server was talking about how they were nervous about their first scheduled acupuncture appointment. another friend offered to do a tarot reading for them. sent this picture.
one of the main characters of Deltarune is Black and it makes me very happy!! her name is Susie and she’s a very common character for people to have as their favorite!
the other two main characters could also be seen as Black coded, but Susie specifically has the most explicit coding and also, in the most recent chapter, can be seen with locs(using the “haircut” act against an enemy)
her story is about her moving around a bunch as a kid, likely because she’s a foster kid, but never fitting in because people judged her for the way she looked. there’s a whole cutscene of her describing playing a public piano as a kid but getting punished because she “didn’t look like someone” who would play the piano, and later watching another kid play it without reprimand. this led her to embrace the labels people placed on her to become aggressive before she was shown actual companionship and started showing who she truly is. she also is in a romance with another girl where she’s very gentle and sweet
anyways! sorry for the ramble, i just like that one of the best written characters in this very popular game is a queer Black teen
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.
