Eta on the YouTube video? No rush, just exchange

im gonna be honest man please do not count on me here lmao. my follow through rate for these projects is like 5%. real ones remember gourdquest and other related failed projects i came close to the sun on. if i succeed it will be huge for me on a genuine personal level and it will be the first time i've finished a creative project at all in years but if i do not. neither you nor me should be surprised

Carla cutting off Betsy's pile-on in her defence without even looking up hit me harder than the car that clipped Swain

i can't make .gifs to effectively illustrate my point but

First responder to young Shaw in the car wreck in 1993: "Hang on, kiddo; I'm coming to you, okay?"

Shaw talking on the phone to a kidnapped Gen in 2013: "Hang on, kiddo. I'm coming for you."

First responder about to pull young Shaw out of the car wreck in 1993: "Ready to get out of here?"

flirted with a guy at the studio who is leftist in a gun owning/apocalypse surviving way and his politics and opinions didn’t tick me off once. what are we

There is something so funny to me that my entire family has been first responders except for me but I end up obsessed with a show about first responders

I've never heard of emts working only at events? What's that like for you if you don't mind my asking?

Yeah, there are ambulance companies that staff certain events, but there's some event specific companies out there lmao. For me specifically, it's almost entirely college events, whether it's happening on a campus or not. It's not great, usually pretty boring, but it's better than being on an ambulance or in a hospital. We do get actual emergencies sometimes, but usually it's just getting drunk people to the tent or giving out water and bandaids lmao. Again, boring as fuck, but I chose this over working on a 911 rig, so that's on me 😔 if I'm being so real tho, other than my coworkers, the best part of the job is the food lmaoooo it's so good and all the food trucks/food booths give discounts or free food to us depending on the location and event. And there's almost always a ton of downtime, so I basically just get paid to sit there and vibe for the most part

I’ve got a paper due tomorrow and my brother texted me that he is in the hospital circa two hours ago and I obviously was trying to get in contact with him to find out what was going on and then after that he informed me that he “didn’t want to bother” our parents and hadn’t told them where he was yet so I just spent the past 45 minutes trying to get in touch with our parents for him (bc it’s past midnight and they were dead asleep) so like do you think that’s grounds to ask for an extension or no

What a week

Today would have been Chester's 5th Gotcha Day. Instead, he died in my arms on Monday morning. So much for having a relaxing day off from work, but still, glad that I was home and with him when it happened. I'm just now realizing that I didn't ugly cry about missing him yesterday, which I have very mixed feelings about. On the other hand, I ugly cried about it for half of my therapy session this week. I think it was the first time that I've really cried in a session with this therapist.

Then, I had the experience of terminating a contract at work. Fortunately the process is very impersonal and hands off, because I'm way too much of a softie and it might have killed me to actually have that conversation on top of dealing with Chester.

Now I've inherited this person's entire caseload, which is a full time caseload for someone with no admin duties. I have...many admin duties. The only day that I did not spend 10-12 hours in the office this week was the day that I had to leave slightly early for my therapy appointment.

I stepped back from helping at a huge training exercise in a few weeks because I know I don't have the time for it. I'm begging for a part-time backfill. But apparently I'm also in danger of losing one of my psychiatrists, which is not cool and would take my patient care to 1.5 FTE which is insane.

So, I'm frustrated with work and my leadership, and their ability to demonstrate that they actually support me. I'm preemptively feeling overworked and underappreciated. I'm sad and miss Chester and need to figure out how to combine cages so all the girls have enough space to be civil.

On the bright side, finally working my first shift as a solo medic is so sweet

Tumblr users who haven't graduated high school yet, do you know how to pack a wound, apply a tourniquet, and/or respond in an active shooter situation? And were you taught how to do these things by your school? I'm a 24 year old and my 29 year old wife just told me a 12 year old they know was drilled on all of these things by their health teacher, and that it's becoming increasingly common in American schools for students to be taught how to act as First Responders. Please reblog for reach, but use proper trigger warnings. Let me know if I should add anything else to the list of triggers.

That sure sounds like something bad is going to happen to these teens just doing their homework.
