my mom just had a 7cm brain tumor removed and since she's woken up she's been talking nonstop about this dream she had about going to an art gallery full of colourful paintings by a 'homosexual artist' named klimsdorf who was ethereal and wise, both young and old... at first she was convinced he was a real person but after failing to find him online she's accepted he was a figment of her subconscious mind and is now determined to bring him to life via painting his portrait herself. she's 67 and has never drawn in her life. and now this. blorbo from her tumor

After 4 years of waiting, I finally had my bilateral salpingectomy 🥰

Aside from the long wait - which I understand even though it was frustrating - the whole process was so easy and pleasant.

Everyone I dealt with was supportive, professional, and trusted me to make the right decisions for me. Of course they went through the checklists to make sure I was well informed & that they'd covered their bases, but no one second guessed or doubted me at any point.

The surgery itself went great, and so far recovery is manageable, I haven't had to consider the Tramadol yet.

The only cost to me was $5each for a few packs of pain killers at the pharmacy afterwards.

I am so grateful for Aotearoa's public health system and for the wonderful people that make it work.

You show up for your first day at Copyright-Free Magic School. As you're going through orientation, you're informed that all new students get a school-assigned familiar that they are responsible for housing and maintaining. The staff member assures you that your assigned familiar is appropriately chosen and reflects you in some way.

Spin this to find out yours. (Remember, you are responsible for maintaining this familiar in your dorm room.)

book from the sky (tianshu) xu bing, 1989-91

I was so excited to see a copy of this in real life bc it's something I studied in art history. this is a book that was typeset and printed by hand using wooden blocks but every one of the characters was invented for the sake of the piece and does not correspond to any word in the Chinese language

It is actually way better for 100 addicts to get their fix on pain pills than a single person in pain go without. I call this the "Torture is bad" principle. You should be able to get the good stuff forever after a single doctor's visit. If you're worried about addicts fund rehab centers and needle exchanges instead of torturing people.

This is so fucking funny

I’ve been reading about werewolves on Wikipedia and I just have to say. “Werewolves are warriors that descend into hell to fight demons” kicks unbelievable amounts of ass as a concept
