Protip: Waiting in the ER is much more fun when you’re listening to Käärijä and Joker Out and reading Bojere fanfiction.

But fr though. Everyone else around me looks miserable, I feel miserable, but less so when CCC just started playing and I’m just smiling and bopping my head to the music. The power of the green gremlin and his Slovenian boyfriends 💚❤️

#i’m okay-ish btw #a REALLY sore throat since last weekend and they wanted me to come in bc of the symptoms in case it’s something called peritonsillar abcess #the finnish healthcare system is a mess at the moment so i couldn’t get an appointment anywhere #i’ll have to wait here for a few hours at least 🤡 #käärijä #joker out

well thats fucking awful 😭

#kate middleton #sweet kate 😭❤️ #without speculating about kate's specific diagnosis BUT as a relative to someone who was struck by this out of the blue last summer: #PLEASE don't let embarrassment get in the way of getting checked for bowel cancer #as someone who works in healthcare talking about bowel movements and feces is SUCH an everyday thing for us #no one will bat an eye if you go see your doctor or the hospital about changes in your stool or pain or bleeding or whatever #no one will think it's funny or embarrassing #instead it can save your life #take it from my granny: the worst thing about a colonoscopy is the laxatives you take for prep ❤️ #please see a doctor for: 1. blood in your stool or from the rectum 2. long-lasting changes to your regular pattern of bowel movements #3. unexplained weight-loss 4. unexplained pain in your stomach that doesn't go away 5. any time of lump in your stomach (anywhere really) #6. unexplained tiredness and 7. a feeling that you don't empty your bowels completely #text

i hate to doom rn but it feels really bleak and scary here in canada rn

#impossible to find a job impossible to imagine owning a place or even renting anywhere #the possibility of a transphobic conservative government within the next year that could strip me of my rights or #destroy the public healthcare system i rely on as a person w a disability that doesnt have a job yet #it really feels like i dont have anything to look forward to here anymore...... it doesnt feel like i have a future #dooming #im really sorry guys its just #MAN.

one of those sneaky evil things about America is that almost all the jobs that don’t suck out your soul and are creative and/or let you determine your own hours and workload do not come with any sort of health care or medical benefits. like working in theatre while doing freelance editing/writing sounds like such a dream to me up until the exact moment I remember that one ER trip would ruin my entire life

#which is why. I need to get out of the country. #I dont think things are perfect anywhere but it’ll sure be easier when I don’t have to choose between work I enjoy and having healthcare

@baronessblixen not to shine a spotlight on you but yeah! Not required and it is also often not done. This is not my first fulltime 40+hr/wk job, but it IS my first to offer any paid time off.

I think all of my jobs with some sort of benefits included retirement but none besides this one offered any PTO, not vacation, not sick days. You take a day off, it was unpaid.

More white color jobs get an average of a whopping 10 days after 5 years, and after that we get spoiled with a whole 15! Woo!

Additionally, unless you are also working some corp job, working part time is almost a dead certainty your PTO is 0.

But really, it’s up to whoever your employer is. None of this is mandatory and the crumbs get treated like a gift.

#us politics #no healthcare no sick days no vacation and shit wages #we don’t go anywhere or do anything lol

hi! i currently have an entire $45 ($30 usd) and i’ve been putting off buying my medicine because centrelink is really taking their time renewing my healthcare card so i can’t afford it & i run out in 2 days.

anyone able to help?

pypl is ashtonlove and i have tips enabled on my blog

#personal #idk how to tag to get reach because people say tags suppress the post #so uh. help lmao #i don’t know the exact price of my meds at full price but i can BARELY afford them with the healthcare card and it reduces most things to $6 #when they’re otherwise like. anywhere from $10-$50 #do i need to list all my marginalisations or something. i mean clearly i am disabled and also broke

randomly remembered this one person who was briefly hired as a doctor in my hometown’s clinic

apparently, during her job interview, she talked about how she was planning to commute to the clinic (okay) via plane (...??), like, just roundtrip flights to/from Boston MA multiple times a week

(said clinic was in the southeastern US. which is, uh, not particularly close to Boston, right)

at first she was like “oh i’m going to do this because my husband’s in law school in Boston” which, okay fair, people do what they gotta to solve the two-body problem

but apparently she also talked about how “sad” all the houses in the town looked, and kept saying a bunch of passive-aggressive shit about the place, like “wow it’s impressive what your town has been able to do with what little you have” and stuff like that

she said this during the job interview! what!!!

i mean maybe she just knew how desperate my hometown was for doctors. because the clinic still hired her anyway. turns out rural healthcare is a tirefire and you take what you can get even when it’s actively insulting/belittling you

(though the interesting other question is, how desperate was she, like, surely commuting to this place she clearly thought was Beneath Her was not her plan A or plan B or whatever)

anyway she spent six months on the job, complained relentlessly about how many patients were on medicaid, and then quit with like two days’ notice

wonder what happened to her.  what a weird interlude

#next hire after that was excellent but got an aggro cancer at a shockingly young age and passed away #next hire after THAT was an alcoholic who got disbarred/unlicenesed/whatever-the-word-is by the state board for throwing shit at nurses #kind of a cursed position #thinking about it today b/c that division of the clinic had to close recently and it kinda sucks man. #healthcare's not in a great state anywhere but our town was especially brutal

[disco-cola]

sometimes i dream about living in the states for a while but then i just read on cnn that the latest incident in texas was just the 199th (?!!) mass sh00ting with 4 or more casualties (like anything under that wasnt even counted in) THIS YEAR thats insane like i cant believe this but the gun v!0lence archive says the same its only may you literally cant fucking go to a store or to school or anywhere without constant fear how do yall live

#it could be a beautiful country with its variety and landscapes but the gun laws and catastrophic healthcare system are FRIGHTENING #im literally never getting out of germany probably #sh00ting incidents with weapons happen here too sometimes and i do feel attacks on the civilian public have worsened and its more dangerous #but still not anywhere near american standards

I’m actually really tired of talking/hearing about the “selfishness” of not voting in a system that is not actually a democracy. So instead I’m gonna talk about all the actual *policies* in no particular order that everyone should be advocating for to make a system that actually results in something resembling a democracy.

abolish the senate. In the first US census the ratio of people who could vote in the least populous state to the people who could vote in the most populous state was about 1:10, now it’s about 1:80. It is crazy that we have had situations where democrats represented 180 million people and republicans represented 145 million, but they still had the same number of seats. THATS NOT A DEMOCRACY.

abolish the electoral college. Winner takes all system is stupid, non standardized ratio for people to college votes is stupid, having two presidential terms in my lifetime where the president didn’t win the popular vote is NOT A FUCKING DEMOCRACY.

standardize the number of house votes per capita. It’s crazy that Idaho gets one seat per almost a million people while Montana right next door gets one seat per 500k. STILL NOT A DEMOCRACY

ranked choice voting. Stop voting defensively and start having a forum where we can actually see peoples preferences. And while we’re at it let’s have proportional representation so we’re not stuck with a two party system

codify a reversal of the citizens United decision and get the money out of politics. Nobody should be able to give a politician tens of thousands of dollars. Period. We basically legalized bribery and I know this sounds crazy but I think we should not do that anymore.

anywho. I’m tired of fighting over candidates no one actually likes when we could be talking about advocating for systems that will result in getting candidates who actually reflect the policy positions of the country. If we don’t fix these things. This shitty choice will happen again and again even when the policies we actually want are MAJORITY OPINIONS.

#us politics #Joe Biden #We’re going to lesser of two evils ourselves into hell completely needlessly #Anywhere b/w a 2/3rds to 3/4ths majority supports abortion rights/gun control/affordable healthcare/education and a Gaza ceasefire #So why is that not federal policy? #I’m tired of being treated like a radical for advocating for MAJORITY OPINIONS #US elections #Rock the vote #Vote

has anyone gone to another country for college? lmk

#I need to figure out my logistics wkdnwkd #I’m hoping I can maybe use my student loans to pay for my flight and shipping my things but idk. i might have to set up a gofundme to help #get there bc the tuition is just boarding plus food I think? and some healthcare added too #I’m not sure if I’ll be allowed back home depending on how my parents take the news that IM GOING but uh we’ll see #I submitted my application so we’ll see if I even get in anywhere. but if I don’t it wasn’t meant to be that’s how I’m gonna think of it #I’m trying to look at colleges in the USA too but I’m just so uninterested I’ve already done that #also I wanna leave the US! and idk where in the US I’d even go if I went to college here #that’s what my parents want but…😵‍💫. suddenly it’s ‘don’t worry about the money’ when they don’t want me leaving the US 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ #I’m still gonna be paying for it all myself with loans anyway it’s insulting for them to talk to me about money #esp abt me saving money bc they charge me rent each month like how can I do that…anyway! #t

living in literal insurance limbo rn ama

#cvs like u have medicaid so u dont qualify for the bridge covid vaccine program. but also ur medicaid is inactive bc u have third party #insurance so u cant get vaccinated thru medicaid. #medicaid like our records say u have third party insurance through ur school. get the vaccine thru them. #ur school like yes we registered u as having school healthcare in every state system but then u waived coverage #but none of the records got updated so it still says ur on the school plan. so u can't get insurance or healthcare anywhere else. #but also u can't get insurance here bc u waived all services :) hope this helps :) #ANYWAYS its figured out now fingers crossed but like GIRL.................................................

You know what's extra awesome? Your doctor refusing to raise your pain medication as planned because she wants you to go to A&E (despite the immense lasting pain it will cause you) and then when you call again the next day being told you have to wait AN ENTIRE WEEK for an appointment (despite getting the first appointment on the same day you called)

#I fucking hate this healthcare system #although putting the word 'care' anywhere near this abomination would be outright lying

[doodlboy]

I assure you my nurse is always a trainwreck and this kind of talk is justified, prommy.

#the joys of the us public healthcare system #mean my insurance won't let me go anywhere else to escape her #die by my hand #for legal reasons this is a joke #...unless 👀

I realized that although it's just canada I'm the first one on my mom's side of the family since they left ireland however the fuck long ago to get out of this godforsaken country and I think that's very funny

#I'm excited to visit canada even tho it's literally just united states 2 with less people more french better healthcare and #more covert racism #but my mom's family has been too poor since coming here to go anywhere further than Illinois lmfaooo. my grandma briefly went to arizona.
