@Suniya oh, yeah, that'll be great for me, someone whose state doesn't do medicaid for the poor (Thanks, Texas!) and who can't afford a $300+/month premium for *catastrophic* insurance. Yeah, just charge me even more without even giving me healthcare! Perfect! (Assuming I'm reading this right, ofc)

And this is the fucker the DNC is trying to rig the primaries for?

I appreciate that Tusky allows me to automate clicking "show more" on content warnings for stuff I probably didn't actually want to see. I don't, because I at least want the chance to realize a second too late what I'm opening, but I appreciate it nonetheless

It boggles my mind that people believe in roko's basilisk and still have the nerve to not just call themselves rational, but insist than anyone who disagrees with the basilisk is irrational

I'm almost done with Doxycycline. I finish my course saturday evening. I've gotten to the point where I can take it with just water on an empty stomach without throwing up. Some occasional nausea still, but it's nowhere near as bad as it was. I can basically function normally on it.

Holy fuck. I have done, like, 2 major things today (meeting this morning not included) and I am already exhausted. I have literally washed dishes and done ONE homework problem. What the utter fuck?!

Seriously, though, my classmates were talking about this being a 2 page problems, and I did it in half a page by just going "Yeah, protons and neutrons have *basically* the same mass and binding energy doesn't *really* matter here, so, you know, it's fine." Mind you, what I got for nuclear density was on the order of what's in the book, so it's correct enough

I legitimately just wrote "Assume a spherical orange of radius 3.75 cm" on a physics homework. I think I'm starting to get the hang of this whole "physics" thing

I suppose it's kinda like cheese or butter. How did we discover those. Like, who first had milk go bad, but discover that they could make something else out of it? It's weird. Very weird.

Things I don't understand: snack mix. Don't get me wrong, it's good and all, but who went, "Yes. Let's take a bunch of small pretzels and bits of bread, make them crispy and coat them in seasoning!"? Like, it just...doesn't seem like a particularly obvious idea. Kinda like croutons. "Ah, my bread is stale. Oh well, I'll coat it in seasoning and put it in my salad!" Like, how do you decide this is a good idea?

I met with the LGBT people this morning. It was short. But, everything went well enough. I'm supposed to be getting information on a gender clinic nearby that can get me free HRT and, at some point, my email and stuff will get changed to my chosen name! Woo!

I drew a picture! So, a few years ago, I drew the first picture. It's...uh...not great. No, she's not supposed to look that horribly underweight, I just didn't know how to draw. Well, I did, but, for some stupid reason, I thought that looked fine. But, it doesn't. So, I gave her another chance. Now, she looks in far better condition, and she's back for revenge.

In case you're interested, I wrote some story with it over on DeviantArt: https://www.deviantart.com/awesomeenderfox/art/It-s-my-turn-829369479
