I should be legally allowed to kill my family for not getting vaxed and giving me covid because now I'm fucking dying as soon as I breath the wrong thing

#I'm coughing up my lungs #i need an inhaler #never happened once before covid now cleaning without a mask makes me wish u w #me wish* i was dead #i had a mask the whole day but i took it out and then the dust still in the air almost killed me

Aww, now I want to see more stuff with HC Wind and Four! 🥰

- 🛵

Four bit his lip as his confused patient yet again tried to climb out of the bed. Thankfully he had soft restraints to help him stay put, as he was so confused he had already torn all his clothes off and woke up in a frenzy at nearly five minute intervals at this point (thank heaven the shift was almost over). The man had meningitis, had no idea what the heck was happening, and was on blood thinners, so the instant he got out of bed, he would probably stumble a few steps and then immediately fall and get a head bleed.

So it was fairly important to ensure he didn't leave the bed.

"Hey Toru," he called loudly, as the elderly patient was partly deaf, placing a calming hand on the man's shoulder.

"Geuh buhb huh??" the patient slurred and grumbled, staring at him with wide, bewildered eyes.

"You're safe," Four explained, feeling his chest rumble in warning as he continued loudly, "You're in the hospital. You're in the ICU. I'm your nurse. You're very sick, so it's important that you stay in the bed, okay?"

The patient settled with another disjointed garbled set of words, allowing Four a moment to sniffle back some phlegm and stifle another cough. He only had the remains of a bad cold, and he was wearing a mask to ensure he didn't share the germs with anyone, but he was long overdue for a coughing fit and a box of tissues.

If he could leave the room long enough to do that.

The patient started to climb out of bed once more, and Four sighed, immediately walking back to him and trying to soothe him. "Toru. You're in the hospital. You're safe. I'm your nurse, I'm here to take care of you. You're very sick--"

His words choked off with a violent urge to cough, and he managed to step back enough to hack into his mask a few times.

Then he had to laugh. Yeah, he's sick and so am I. Feels like the blind leading the blind in here.

"Uh, Four? You good?"

Glancing back, Four saw Wind staring at him hesitantly in the doorway. When he looked back at his patient with a sigh, he saw that the man had once more stripped off his gown and blankets, and his legs were half over the side rail as he laid there in confusion.

"Yeah. You wanna help me get him resituated?"

Wind bit back a snort. "Sure. Maybe you should just hop in with him, you sound kind of rough."

"I'm not that bad," Four grumbled as the pair helped the man get back in bed. Four started to talk him through the steps before he had to step away to cough again.

Wind took pity on him, taking over and explaining to the patient. The younger man's louder voice helped, and within a few minutes the patient was appropriately dressed and covered and resting.

Four thanked Wind, who smiled cheerily. "No problem! Hey, do you work again tonight?"

"No, I'm off."

"Oh thank goodness," Wind sighed in relief. "I was about to say there's an open bed next door if you need it."

"Ha ha ha," Four deadpanned. "Guess that means we can't get together tonight with your telescope."

Wind gasped. "Hey, now! You're not that sick, and you promised to do some star charting with me when we were both off!"

Four laughed. "See? Even you're saying I'm not that sick."

Wind opened his mouth to protest and realized his mistake. Then he grumbled, "That was a trap."

"And you fell right into it."

Rolling his eyes, the respiratory therapist nodded towards Four's patient. "Well enjoy it for now, because he's crawling out of the bed again."

Four sighed heavily. Thirty more minutes to day shift.

#you ask skye answers #lovely scooter anon #lu in healthcare #lu wind #lu four #I feel like Four likes collecting and learning and tallying things #Wind likes sea charts and the like because of his game #so they could bond over stargazing and charting things #also I had to laugh at my situation when I would tell my patient he's sick and then step away to cough up a lung #very glad I'm not on Confused Patient Babysitting Duty tonight #writing

well 😔 after literally 3+ years of masking and double masking with N95s and KN95s and social distancing and not going anywhere where i can't be assured i won't be in close proximity to someone with COVID ya boy got COVID , , , ,

#my lungs feel like absolute shit man ; ;#it's like a footballer rammed straight into my back and stood on top of my crumpled body for good measure ; ;#all because my brother still hangs out at movies and restaurants with his friends . . . . . . . .#and stupidly i was so excited to see him back after a month of being away #so we sat and watched a movie together on tuesday #and then wednesday he was like 'oh shit turns out i have covid sorry'#ogughgh . . . . . .#apparently he was feeling bad even on tuesday but he has such a history with head colds that COVID didn't even show up on our radar . . . .#i'm paying for it now though hhh ; ;#hindsight 20/20 and all that #can't stop coughing and i'm running a low grade fever #but most of all JESUS my chest hurts so much ; ; ; ; ;#it's like the agony of an asthma attack only so much more focus on the pain than the inability to breathe #i'm lucky that at most it just feels like there are rubber bands around my chest when i try to breathe deeply #but god #i'm supposed to start my internship through my college next week #this. might literally fuck me over in so many ways but hopefully my mentors will be accommodating . . . . .#in any event uhgghghgh i'm just frustrated because i've been so so careful for years and years . . . i never stopped masking . . . . .#i got the vaccine and all the boosters and yet . . . . . . . .

What do you think about speedwagon with freckles or dimples?

I can't recall if I've ever seen or read anything involving Speedwagon with dimples. I like the idea, but I also personally feel like dimples fit Jonathan a lot more! People forget that he spent 7 actual years in isolation and just being miserable. Smiling is something he probably didn't do much, not genuinely at least. Might sound cheesy af, but I think dimples would make his smile prettier and even more unique (they'd also grant Speedwagon with yet another perfect opportunity to compliment Jonathan and make him blush and smile more!).

I do recall seeing/reading fanworks where he has freckles tho. It's cute! Though I must admit I'm a huge fool for the "light freckles trope". That where his freckles are so lightly colored that they can only be really seen when looking up-close to his face or when he blushes, so not many know he has freckles. Only Jonathan knows, whether it is in a "ship context" (like Jojo noticing them when they first kissed, or when he's managed to make him blush), or just in a general context, as the two spent a lot of time together throughout all of PB, timeskips just did us PB stans dirty (most of the literal months of downtime that happened in this part took place off-screen 😔) and it's also inferred that the two became close, so it's likely -and sometimes implied too- that they got to learn and discover a lot of things about each other through their many interactions off-screen.

#i'm still bitter af about all the 'slice-of-life' stuff we were robbed of during the main part of PB #heads up: i caught a cold recently and have been coughing my lungs out again. all this coughing has me a bit woozy rn ngl #so apologies if i make little sense at times 🥲#jjba #speedguapo #speedwagon #jonathan joestar #jonawagon #mentions of it mainly but yisss

happy wip monday bc i can't wait for wednesday

my mom brought miss rona home from a coworker after i posted the first ch of @lemon-wedges phantom au which brought everything to a halt where instead i was watching yt clips of cdrama palace intrigue. did numerous mini drafts on paper of something i thought i'd use but then decided to use later on (how did this grow from two to four planned chapters aaaaa) so now we're going in a completely new direction

also after a bit of back and forth with myself i made the Very Important Decision of having barok at a pub

#my wips #somehow i didn't test positive but still got coughs that never really went away bc weather changed so much that my lungs couldn't keep up #former asthmatic problems strike once again thanks to east coast weather #i've also been trying to trick my brain into saying fuck it let's just write self indulgent shit head empty #while every instinct wants polish and layers in every sentence #and i mean there's gonna be layers bc man did i spend a lot of the downtime researching noh plays #but maybe not everything has to be full dgs levels of crafting mysteries #i've also slowly been getting through the dunmeshi manga which is fun i'm in the ch 70s now #baroryuu

this feels like maybe not a bad place to ask this question since last night I was having my semi-regular fit of anxiety about the idea of all of google's servers going offline at once and destroying all record of the (many) documents I keep on google drive. because the thing is that whatever my google feelings overall I unfortunately really like using drive for a lot of reasons (can move easily between computers, the autosave, easy to share with other people, version tracking, etc.) but I recognize that not having a local copy of my files is potentially risky but I don't know of a good/efficient way to make sure that I'm regularly keeping backups of everything on there.

maybe the answer is just that I have to set, like, a weekly event on my calendar that says something like "BACK UP YOUR SHIT" and keep a separate terabyte drive for storage of my gdrive files but given my fallible memory and also the fact that I get lazy about shit...wondering if there's some other method I'm missing. so! crowdsourcing that question to the tumblr hive mind of people who know more about this than I do, my basic searching has been less than helpful in terms of "evaluating what would be a good idea/would work"

#help me internet kenobi #important text posts #propped up in a desk chair until i hear from my boss that she doesn't need anything from me urgently today hopefully #then i'm going to go lie down again. and continue coughing my lungs out.

// I am in so much pain from coughing non-stop for like 3 days straight now. :'') It feels like being repeatedly stabbed in the chest ngl.

#;; the admin speaks #// it's so frustrating because I don't have a fever and I don't feel sick #// but there's so much mucus in my lungs/respiratory system #// like when I breathe in and out it makes this wheezing sound #// and it's preventing me from going about my day normally #// I'm still going to work but I had to step out into the hallway multiple times while teaching today because I had to cough up a lung :/

To every single person who has decided not to wear a mask on public transportation in the middle of a triple epidemic outbreak (covid, the flu, bronchitis, aka the unholy trinity of death): I hate you with a burning passion. Sincerely, someone who could die from your lack of care.
