tutorial level lore (for real)
i didnt proofread this after 1.75 hours of typing and that's your fault because i said so
expect typos and nonsense
CORRUPTED:
everybody forgets about him like wtf,,,.???? i swear everybody just goes "HIIIII IM SO HAPPY ALL FOUR OF US ARE HERE" "please i'm right here"
playlist mode also forgot about him 😢
to be fair i forgot about them until right as i started typing
also needs a hug. actually fuck that they all need a hug
the,,, the shortest,,... i i cannot..... they're short oh my gosh
probably one of those wiggly cactus fucks but like angry at everything
also the youngest out of all of em.... babeyyyyyyyy...
110% has a cool scarf i mean come on guys
ok to differentiate between corruption and this fucker's name i'm gonna give him a capital C at the start
tbh they all have that certain vibe that i can't explain rn rn but corrupted and blixer the most so uhhhhhh they vibe together share a vibe yeah
unironically dabs
probably the less focused on MURDERING spicy player shapes
"Okay look ASSHOLES I was the first out all of us to be pink so y'all should really treat me with more respect" they don't
has the best song and ill fight you over that
would look rlly cool if they were like....... not Corrupted just not them
glares at chronos every time he says wink out loud.
his last name's probably kyle
CHRONOS:
doesnt have a face anymore. it's a clock now.
NO his face doesn't mostly tell the time accurately and that pisses logic off the most.
ironically dabs
maybe the tallest but maybe logic's taller i haven't rlly decided yet ok ok
he cant right now he's dunking his bible in milk
rlly wants to eat food sometimes so he just yeets like fucking corn flakes at his face. milky ways also sometimes yeets corn flakes at his face.
"Wowwwww you guys have FACES??? smh."
maybe believes the world is flat
types for 20 minutes after you insult him online
would set fire to the tree of life and watch every second of them burning
the tree's probably fireproof tho and like i don't think fighting the fucking shape goddess went well last time??? didn't it??? now u dont have to worry abt getting ur face hurt that's for sure
Probably part enderman at this point like what the fuck how did you get out of that locked room???? You just see him fucking leave out of another room like OK CHRONOS
says wink out loud
does the most jobs for the tree (outside of what they all usually do)
what they're supposed to do (teach those spicy player shapes to not die) isn't what they actually do now (try to kill spicy player shapes unless they're good enough to not die and get the fuck out of there!!!)
Genuinely misses having a face.
MILKY WAYS:
she has the most braincells. and eyes. three eyes. (and three braincells)
second shortest,!!! will fight you
probably the most reliable at reading anything
"okay guys it's been fun but i'm going to space now" *walks out of the room*
probably would be like rlly competitive in video games and like whenever they suddenly win when you were about to win you hear them gleefully cackling thats actually rlly wholesome wtf me
"guys is the world flat yes or no" "does my life depend on the answer???" "YES. YES IT DOES, CHRONOS." "uuuuuuuHHhhHHhhHh"
probably added megalovania to the group's playlist (if they had one.................)
the tree of life definitely once yeeted the fucker she just grabbed her fucking face and went YEET!!!!! no idea why but that 100% happened
played minecraft and left a review saying there wasn't enough squares
fought Corrupted and won
"i'm gonna munch. i'm gonna crunch" just steals somebody's fucking c h i p s and SPRINTS away
strong shitpost energy tbh??
doesn't know the difference between astronomy or astrology
nobody can see any stars™️ where they live and she rlly wants to see stars™️ (it's her aesthetic ok) (smh) (you wouldn't get it)
they might just be in the fuckign void thats not rlly an aesthetic
LOGIC GATEKEEPER:
doesn't understand most memes tbh
YAAYYYYYY SECOND TALLEST.... or NOT!!!!!!!!!!
"guys ur not being logical....... 💔"
would whisper wikipedia articles to you <3
i'd say they could do the best maths out of everybody but rlly i dont trust them with 1 + 1
unironically would type like... this... sometimes...
"guys why are you awake it's like 3 am" "shut the fuck up logic we're eating stolen c h i p s"
probably has rlly cool legs (i forgot to delete this but now i'm kinda liking what me 10 minutes ago said)
they maybe broke 1 law but it was just one of the laws of reality (like a fucking nerd smh)
T-poses regularly to assert dominance over the three shorter peasants.
actually the only one that still likes the tree of life. "GUYS GUYS SHE'S COOL WTF???" "logic please she fucking deleted my face"
fought Corrupted once and lost
favourite flavour drink is water
everybody probably calls them logic because saying three more syllables is just too hard
BLIXER. THAT FUCK:
angry!!
also dabs but maybe???? ironically (he doesn't know either anymore)
wtf he's directly middle height to everybody (bht he's taller than everybody in that stinky new game form though so good for him)
punches stuff!!!!!
"guys where are my c h i p s"
he has a pupil but only sometimes for no reason
probably went into the tutorial gang like wayyyy after everybody else so he's the new shape™️
"hey guys check out this neat selfie" he just shows them an image of sans
kinda "died" but he actually just took over the world
the tree of life also tells everybody what they need to know rn rn so like she just went "heyyy yeah he died 😭 have fun guys" and went off to go be mean to him for like. ever.
he is a cat. he will never forget that. everybody keeps reminding him plEASE GUYS
ahhhhhhhhhh!! water scary
types for a fucking hour if you insult him online
rlly needs a hug
tired 24/7
probably wears a hoodie. all the time. even in the summer.
most focused on spicy player shape murder.

I’m so livid rn
I just saw a magazine article that was literally titled ‘How to deal with doctors’ and it was full of the most condescending bad-behaviour bullshit. Like, if you did this kind of stuff to a waitress, everyone on tumblr would go apeshit.
Apparently people seem to have forgotten that hey, doctors are people too. As a child of two of them, and one who hopes to get into medicine herself, I have witnessed firsthand how tough it is being a doctor!
First you have to get into medicine, which is a freaking tough crowd- in South Australia you need an ATAR of 95+, and you need to do better than 85% of people who sit the UMAT. That’s already a HUGE academic responsibility, and from what I’ve heard, Med school is like University on STEROIDS. If you decide to do it as a postgraduate degree, you have to sit through the GAMSAT- the only ways to prepare for that is to either take a year off to study for it, or take a bachelor of science course beforehand!
After all that bullshit, you need an internship (which hospitals frequently run out of), and then you need to be under a supervising administrative staff member, who can then determine whether or not you actually become qualified to become a specialist or even practise medicine. Some hospitals are designed to keep fledgeling doctors trapped working there.
There’s a mountain of bullshit paperwork that med students need to do before they can start practising medicine- My dad recently tried to employ one doctor that wasn’t allowed to work because she hadn’t filled out one particular form and undergone a very bullshit ‘cultural sensitivity’ course, which is really ironic because the lady doctor herself was an indigenous Australian.
Once you do get your medicine ‘wings’, you have to work extremely hard. A family friend, who is a renal specialist, had to work all of his christmas break, including christmas eve and christmas day. If you’re planning on having ANY time off from being a GP, you need to tell the clinic manager at least 6 months in advance, because the bookings are piling up. My mother’s clinic is already booked out until MAY- I’m writing this post in January. That’s a LOT of bookings!
Not even mentioning how much work it is managing paperwork- stuff like medicare, insurance, paying rent or leasing a clinic, and the phenomenal taxation rate. My parents often come home with mountains of paperwork, and it’s very often that I see then come home, cook dinner, eat with us and then disappear to the study to fill out forms.They are frequently exhausted and irritable as a result. My dad often worries about whether he’s got the diagnosis right, and my mother worries about whether or not that funny mole on a patient’s back is actually a skin cancer.
Everyone like to pretend that doctors are swimming around in buckets of their own money, but they’re really not- being a doctor is fucking expensive. A restaurant has to order fresh ingredients, employ someone to clean up, and waitresses and chefs to do the actual fooding. A GP in a clinic has to order expensive medicines such as vaccines, surgical equipment, hire nurses and receptionists, etc. They’re often running a business, unless they’re specialists employed by hospitals or similar. This, not unlike being a restaurant owner, eats away at the GP’s salary.
There’s also training and little points doctors have to earn each year, and lots of conferences and bookings and keeping up to date with the latest medical information. This is a lot of work, and often doctors have to pay through the nose just to keep their damn job.
And then, as the cherry on the assholery cake, some arrogant patient comes swanning in with a vague or purely nonsensical complaint. No joke, my dad has had patients who complain about being tired at 10:45pm, and patients who claim they have a funny pain somewhere that happens sometimes, but they really want to talk about their husband etc. etc.
There’s also a particularly ableist, insidious kind of patient- the person who refuses to cope with any kind of life responsibility, such as getting an education or a job or just anything. They come into the doctors office claiming to have depression, or anxiety, or lower back pain, when they have no symptoms whatsoever and just want a free pass to lie around at home all day eating chocolate and playing video games. These patients actually make it harder for people who are actually depressed, anxious, dying, or chronically ill, because they clog up the healthcare system and as a result protocols have to be put in place to treat all patients with a grain of salt, making it harder for sick people to get medicine. Some doctors are thinking this might be a form of munchausens, but considering I’ve only read wikipedia articles on it, I have no useful comments to make.
So as you can imagine, it is one of the most assholery things to do when you walk into a doctors office and talk ‘authoritatively’ (read: condescendingly) about treatments you’ve read about online that involve sticking goji berries up your asshole or whatever, when you have had no medical experiences whatsoever.
Doctors aren’t some pest you have to ‘deal with’. They are human being who is there to HELP you. Treat them the same way you would treat a waitress, or your plumber, or the cashier at your local supermarket with the lovely smile.
Book your visit to the doctor and show up on time. If you’re late, ring the receptionist and let them know beforehand- most doctors will appreciate this level of respect. If you are late, apologise. Make eye contact with the doctor and in a clear voice, address your primary complaint. Need a prescription refilled? Say so. Got a weird lump on your genitals? Say so. If you have an issue with communicating clearly, due to a mental illness such as anxiety, or a disability, try writing your symptoms down and taking someone who is more able with you. There is no shame in that, and doctors will appreciate attempts to make clear communication.
Now, some doctors don’t do well with certain kinds of diagnoses, for example, being skeptical of mental health issues. You can always book a second appointment and get a second opinion with a different doctors. Heck, feel free just to ‘shop around’ for a doctor that suits YOU. For instance, many women feel much more comfortable talking to a female doctor, particularly for organising things such as pap smears or birth control. Find a doctor that suits you, and show them the same level of respect you’d want to see.
Don’t ‘deal with’ doctors. Treat them like the wonderful, hardworking professionals they are!
#doctors#medicine#med school#gp#specialists#if you dare come into my inbox and tell me that doctors are pieces of shit i will hurt you#frankly the lack of respect i have seen for doctors is alarming and really stupid in the long run#why the fuck would you disrespect people who are providing a necessary service#i mean if you treated your plumber like shit you'd have a leaky house#why are doctors any different?#i have so much respect for people who work hard as professionals no matter what they do tbh#and i have a lot of respect for people who don't have professional jobs and are just trying to get by#i know that being in any kind of industry is tough and can be horrifically stressful#which is why no matter what the work is i treat everyone with respect#especially if they're working in areas that require a lot of skill and intelligence or resillience#be nice to working people okay?
