on the black trans flag
So, I'm going to *massively* overstep my territory here, both as a white person and as decidedly *not* a graphic designer, but I'm not sure that flag edit works, aesthetically speaking. I'm not exactly sold (though I like the thought), and I feel it might be better to redesign the trans flag entirely, rather than edit it. I've included a mockup of what I think might work, but it needs work and input from BlPOC before it's ready to be used. (So don't go using it yet.)
Re: Kat brags for a bit
Here's a redacted version of that news article. Technically, based on my last name (or perhaps you could also make out my first name), you *could* find out what school I went to, but I'll leave that as a challenge to the reader (ya fuckin' creepy stalker).
(And don't think of googling the headline. That article was print only. Heheheh.)
A minor correction to my post here. Nothing major, but I did get the heartbeat slightly wrong. Q is actually a small downwave at the beginning of the QRS complex. My point still stands, particularly as I got most of the ECG right, but it's worth correcting. Also, there's something called a U wave. Not majorly important, usually doesn't even show up, but, that's there, in case you cared.
Now, that said, it does seem similar to the ECG output corresponding to 3rd degree heart block (shown below). Something tells me, though, that the game devs didn't do that on purpose and kinda just drew what they thought a heartbeat looks like.
Here's an ECG from a game, with a rough scribbled on normal heartbeat for comparison. Notice how the game's ECG lacks a T wave and seemingly is missing that Q interval (or it has no P wave and 2 RS complexes). This bugs me intensely.

Took ten tries to get the video small enough, but here ya go. The shitty wafer lock on my desk.
Reminds me of that thing about opening a car door with a popsicle stick. (Yes, those are also wafer locks.)
On meds and trademarks
I'm looking through a textbook for EMTs and, uh, I'd just like to call attention to the fact it refers to the Auvi-Q epinephrine autoinjector as "An Auvi-Q EpiPen". Yes, a textbook for EMTs uses "EpiPen" as a generic term for an epinephrine autoinjector. Just sayin'
