i fully believe that the broke family's pinball machine came about because one day skip won literally like $150 on a scratch off and instead of buying food diapers a cute gift for his wife ANYTHING he went right to a stupid pawn shop and loaded that thing dangerously into his truck. not strapped down right or anything just raw in the bed held on with prayers. then had the nerve to tell brandi it was a birthday gift for dustin (his birthday was 3 months ago)

#plumbog headcanon #i can and will make theories about pin ball machines. do not test me #skip broke would be a lifted yeeyee truck owner you CANNOT tell me anything else. he can't afford payments on it #only alternative is a pickup from the 80s that is actively falling apart and does NOT have a muffler

I am lazy in a very specific way wherein mixing 1600 pounds of concrete by hand seems like less of a hassle than just renting a concrete mixer would have been.

#in my defense . . . it is. technically! less hassle. it's just also physically much much much harder #BUT i didn't have to drive 20 minutes to home depot for pickup and dropoff and learn how to use a mixer. so that basically cancels out righ #the bag of concrete mix: we recommend if you're using more than one bag you use a mixer #me loading 20 80-pound bags of concrete mix into my car: ah i'll be fine #nonetheless! the pylons for my porch have been poured

FUCK CHORES AND PROJECTS!! I'M WRITING FANFIC THIS MORNING AND IT'S MAKING ME HAPPY!!

#now that I'm an adult with my own home Saturdays are just chores all day like I have to take care of stuff first thing in the morning #it's garbage day -which costs me $2 to bring it into town on Sat morning instead of $80/mo for two pickups from the private trash company #and I don't have my washer-dryer yet so I go to my parents to do laundry right after trash #so Saturday mornings are not for relaxing #therefore I AM going to goof off on Sunday morning #we really need three-day weekends #as a single-person household I can't take care of everything and have enough time to recharge with just two days

THE PICK-UP ARTIST- 1987 ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Professional pick-up artist Jack Jericho (Robert Downey Jr) falls for Randy (Molly Ringwald) after a one night stand. She blows him off time after time so he decides to help settle her fathers debt to the mob before they have him whacked off.

Silly, predictable but somewhat fun 80's romcom. Molly Ringwald shines. Robert Downey Jr is a bit annoying at points but not too bad. Dennis Hopper and Harvey Keitel add some much needed gravitas.

Grossed 13 million dollars on a 15 million dollar budget.

The time is 2 a.m. Instead of sleeping, I try to find the answer to the following question: why when I communicate with a girl who is only a friend or acquaintance for me and for whom I do not have romantic feelings, I can communicate without any embarrassment and problems, joke, discuss all sorts of topics and not think about the consequences, and when I communicate with my girlfriend who I love and so on, I get lost, sometimes I feel shy and can't really say anything, I constantly think about what I should talk to her about, and for 10 minutes of conversation I almost have to come up with a whole scenario??? Why is that?! Can you tell me who understands this?

I don't know how any of you feel, but I don't identify much with rich people. I mean, if I somehow obtained millions of dollars, I'd rather give most of it away to family and friends, only keeping enough for me to live comfortably for the rest of my life. Besides, I'd rather buy a 1973-80 Chevy/GMC full-size 4x4 pickup instead of a BMW or Lamborghini, and I'd rather live in a regular house than a mansion. I would also much rather eat KFC or Chinese food than dine at some fancy restaurant that required formal dress.

How it's going as a trans person in Florida: Planned Parenthood, 26Health, and Spektrum Health have announced they have paused all gender affirming care.

To recap, DeSantis signed several anti-trans bills into law this week. Care is banned for minors, care is all but banned for adults, Don't Say Gay has been extended, children can be kidnapped from affirming parents by non-affirming family, and there is a bathroom bill that subjects trans folks to arrest for using government owned facilities, such as those in courthouses, airports, many stadiums and parks.

The adult effective ban was felt immediately. The main elements are:

signing at every visit an in-person informed consent form created by the state

all care come from physicians instead of nurse practitioners

no telemed for gender-affirming care

Currently, it is unknown if existing HRT prescriptions written by NPs will be honored by pharmacies. I personally know one person who was able to pick up testosterone yesterday, but I have also read many reports of folks being denied. I myself don't have a refill ready for another 10 days and will report back after I try my own pickup.

What's additionally dangerous is those of us, myself included, who get non-HRT prescriptions from our gender clinics now face the uncertainty of continuing of *all* of our medical care. Our health clinics are at risk of shuttering permanently as they lose major income, and many of us will lose STD meds, depression meds, heart meds, etc, etc.

When we say "this will kill us," it goes beyond suicide risk from forced detransition.

"But you can still get HRT from a physician."

So many suck or are outright hostile and the demand outstrips the supply. Before I found my NP-run clinic, one physician just decided to not call in my Rx, another was so shit at reading lab results, he thought I had hepatitis, and the third I had to threaten to kick in the teeth for trying to force too large a speculum in me.

Also, the state-required consent form has not been finalized and distributed yet, so at this point, everything has pretty much ground to a halt.

It was estimated that 80% of trans adults would lose their healthcare because of how many use providers like Planned Parenthood, but the impact seems even greater now.

"You can get your non-gender care elsewhere still."

DeSantis recently signed a bill that allows healthcare professionals to discriminate against trans people.

Sure, we can try to find care elsewhere, but it will be a slow and expensive process, with no guarantees. It took me over 20 years to get my heart condition treated because of transphobic doctors.

What can I do as a trans Floridian?

Stay in communication with your clinic - many are working on getting physicians added to the roster to prescribe HRT. Lawsuits are being filed and it's possible the changes to adult care can be rolled back.

Continue to try to pick up your meds, but begin looking for care elsewhere, though. Inside and outside the state.

Remember that while telemed for gender affirming care has been banned, you can still cross state lines for care. See Erin's map of informed consent clinics.

Many people will turn to DIY, but be sure you are aware of the risks here, especially if on testosterone, which is a controlled substance.

What should I be worried about next as a trans Floridian?

I worry about the following next steps towards genocide:

Banning getting care out of state. This is from the anti-abortion playbook. They will likely start with kids again, but we've seen how quickly adult care gets axed.

Being declared mentally incompetent or a risk in some way. This could be anything from being barred from gun ownership to not being allowed to work for the government.

Being declared a de facto predator. This has already happened with the latest bathroom law (cis people can eject trans people from government owned single-gender facilities, with arrest as a penalty), so watch out for it being applied to privately-owned facilities. Watch for discussions of official lists of trans people.

Gender presentation enforcement laws, essentially banning "cross dressing". Laws that block or rollback documentation changes.

These all have historic precedence and are huge "I'm in danger" red flags.

What can I do as a cis person?

Amplify all this news. Talk frankly about how this is genocide. And donate what you can to trans mutual aid campaigns so people can travel to get healthcare or even leave the state.

Here's some articles to get started on building awareness:

Take care, everyone, of yourself and each other.
