"It'S WrEtChEd AnD vIle To CeLeBrAtE sOmEoNe'S dEaTh" Hey. Hey look at me. Listen to me. This guy that died was not some celebrity that said bad things and then got into a car accident. This is not some ex boyfriend of Taylor Swifts that people thought came across as a bit of a douche. This is a person who's choices quite literally shortened the lives of other human beings for the sake of profit. We are not being petty here. That guy was a vile bastard propagating a vile system and pretending otherwise is not the moral high ground you think it is. When a group of people start making healthcare oppressively inaccessible and rig the system so that making legitimate change is next to impossible you cannot be surprised when one of them gets shot. Yes, I agree with you that nobody *deserves* to die, but some people choose to do evil things and make it so that killing them is the only way to make them stop. I'm glad we had this talk.

Four was honestly surprised how many people were here. It was his first big trip, and it was definitely overwhelming. He was usually a loner, but he had to admit… he was thankful he’d asked a friend to come along.
Legend laughed as he texted someone, face glowing with glee. He elbowed Four mischievously. “We should definitely send pictures to Wars.”
“Is that who you’re texting?” Four asked with a smile, enjoying the cheer from his usually grumpier friend. Legend adored education conferences - his friend was nothing if not a lover of learning and exploring new things.
“Oh absolutely,” Legend replied, showing his phone. “He’s upset because I went to the emergency medicine conference and then went to this one. Personally, I think he’s just jealous because I have a cert he doesn’t.”
“Wait, Wars doesn’t have his CCRN?” Four questioned, confused. He figured Warriors, who had everything in his life in order, would have his critical care nursing certification. It was fairly common for nurses in ICU and ED settings.
“Nope!” Legend quipped with delight, obviously ecstatic that he had something over the military nurse.
“Okay, but important question: where are we going to get dinner?”
“Somewhere it doesn’t cost half our paycheck.”
Four glanced around at the skyscrapers. “Uh… not sure we’re going to manage that. I didn’t think the Hebra Mountains had cities like this.”
“Well, then we can contemplate Brugada Syndrome and complicated EKG rhythms while we starve,” Legend supposed.
“Oh, don’t be like that,” Four laughed. “This is a trip, we shouldn’t worry about the cost too much.”
”We don’t make Time’s salary.”
“But we make decent salary.”
Legend bit his lips, stubborn. Four narrowed his eyes analytically. “This isn’t about how much the food costs; it’s because you’ve blown your budget on coffee, isn’t it?”
His friend immediately flushed, guilty as charged. “They charge ten rupees for coffee! Ten!! This place is ridiculous!”
“I told you your caffeine addiction would come back to bite you someday,” Four smiled. “Or, well, more so than it already has.”
“I swear, if you bring up the SVT episode one more time—”
#writing#lu in healthcare#lu four#lu legend#Ok the last few classes have been WAY more interesting than the one that was putting me to sleep lol#poor Legend will never live down his SVT fiasco#Even tho Four definitely put himself in SVT from too much coffee one time#But he converted himself out of it without telling anyone#The world will never know#Except Wild because he was there#I should write that lol#Gonna go to a trauma assessment class and I am definitely just gonna be thinking of Four and his trauma ICU LOL#Hope everyone is having a good day! :D#Warriors is totally jealous of Four and Legend btw#Legend is giving him minute-by-minute updates just to annoy him and show him what he’s missing out on#Also why the FRICK is an iced coffee TEN DOLLARS HERE WHAT THE HECK#Cities are stupid expensive#I don’t even really drink caffeine when I’m not working but I did a hard sleep cycle reset and could use some#BUT NOT FOR THESE PRICES WHAT THE FRICK

hdb is so chronically ill its unreal. post polio syndrome. hep c. withdrawal syndrome depending on the playthrough. probably some sort of sleep disorder. all this probably amounts to chronic pain and fatigue and nausea...and he guilts himself on days he feels like he cant work bc of it. partially bc his self hatred abt being an addict and partially bc he sees being disabled as a moral failure (tbh he sees both as a moral failure). and its just like. ugh i get it. i really fucking get it.
#hugh txt#disco elysium#i end up guilting myself on days im not able to work too#and i know a good amnt of disabled folks who do drugs bc doctors refuse to treat us#or its too expensive#so we end up having to self medicate#which quickly ends up as addiction#but sooo many people who havent been thru it treat addiction like ppl failed a test of will or some shit#and not the result of a healthcare system that failed us

Shout out to Accredo, Express Scripts, and UnitedHealthcare for delaying my access to a medication for 2+ months and so saving some $$$ for themselves while permanently damaging my body as a result ✌️

well, shit is getting straight up untenable in Australia!
that's why we got a new bio, also because we are sick of the anon's just block us damn.
but no legit, they are fucking up the NDIS and THAT IS BAD, it's literally the only governmental support for all disabled people in Australia by the way it's the "national disability insurance scheme" aka NDIS.
so uh BAD, real bad, extremely bad, uber bad.
there's more, uh so yeah!!!! FUCK MAN.
I do hope people don't die, because this is just going to lead to people seeking help from the gov't dying in the meantime.
or if the gov't says "yeah your not disabled (is disabled) get zero accommodations loser" then well that's BAD.
I already know like tons of people who couldn't get NDIS money and they were straight up disabled, and people who desperately needed those accommodations and couldn't because the government just straight up would not listen and help them.
it's pretty fucking telling that more than half the disabled people I know in Australia literally could not get on the NDIS.
this is just making a already shit situation worse, I haven't been able to go to the dentist, GP, or the eye doctor people in more than 5 Years!!!!
FIVE FUCKING YEARS, I know people who are straight up 2 seconds away from being homeless due to not being able to work and not being able to apply to the NDIS.
like it's fucking bad, if your parents won't boot you off your centrelink you can't get your own centrelink and can't access any accomodations or disability money, if your blak (aka aboriginal) your just extremely fucked already now times that by 4.
like dude, THIS IS SHIT.
and I know disability ally's are mostly American based, but by fuck WHAT THE FUCK, THE ACTUAL FUCK MAN.
the NDIS is not perfect there's shit ton of corruption and scammers-
(I actually know a family who's like legit scamming the NDIS lol no I don't mean like "oh those physically disabled's" I mean like they are using the money on like 3d printers and shit lol they are assholes and racists)
but like, it was barely working for people before. this is going to take the people it was barely working before and fuck them over too.
it's gonna fucking suck man, I am fucking scared for everyone.

I can't even go to the GP for fucks sake without it being insane money#I have learning disabilities life is already hard as shit to navigate now add on the insane amount non-critical healthcare is?#FUCKED. it's so fucked.#disability advocacy#disability awareness#disability rights

two tries on two separate days and i STILL can't get ahold of the new endocrinologist's new patient scheduling assistant argh. hopefully they actually call me back this time. on the bright side i did manage to get through to billing (despite their horrible phone tree and even more horrible connection, it sounded like they were speaking through a frayed wire) and get them to update my insurance information and actually bill my insurance for my recent telehealth visit bc there was no way in hell i was gonna pay their upfront unadjusted cost for a thirty minute zoom call with my pcp without them at least TRYING to ping my insurance first
#oh the wonders and joys of the american healthcare system#and i'm lucky bc i have reasonably decent coverage through my parents still too#but. boy i sure do have medical expenses...#anyway they never billed my insurance in the first place because they never updated to my new policy?#despite me entering it like. twice?? since then?#whatever . as long as they do it now#a telehealth visit SHOULD be covered. at least partially. i sure hope so bc i have to do another one next month#i understand being charged for the telehealth visit i really do. especially considering i got two referrals and two prescriptions out of it#but still. this is why i HAVE insurance...use it please#anyway now i'm hoping insurance will cough up a good portion of that billing statement#and that endocrinology will actually call me back and let me schedule a new patient visit.#because i am TIRED! of my old endocrinologist#they're not bad but i'm tired of every visit for three years hearing the same thing and seeing nothing change#and because they're in a different state from where i currently live it makes getting lab results back a right pain in the ass.#so i'd like to swap providers. and it'll be easier to manage if they're in the same system as my pcp which is what i'm trying to do...#i wanna talk about me

hysterectomies should be easy to just call your doctor and schedule one for next week and only cost one hundred dollars. like spaying a cat.
#eliot posts#this is jokes i KNOW it's more complicated for humans bc of how our hormone cycles work#so hysterectomies (especially full ones where you get the ovaries removed) can have unwanted side effect#BUT AT THE SAME TIME#the way medical misogyny (as well as good ole overly expensive american healthcare) makes them unnecessarily hard to get#''but what if you want BABIES some day'' no thanks. fuck them kids.#''but what if your FUTURE HUSBAND wants BABIES'' someday. no thanks. not into men.#(and trying to pressure me to carry a child for them would be grounds for divorce to me anyways. fuck you im not a baby machine.)#this post brought to you by: i feel like i got hit by a fucking bus after last night's cramp incident#i want this thang GONE

man this autism quotient sheet might as well have drank my pepsi and fucked my wife why is it so mean
#soda offers you a can#i know that it's because autism is diagnosed primarily through a lens of negativity#it's just the wording on the results struck me as particularly sharp#“weak imagination” you could not have chosen different words to convey the message perhaps?#oh yeah i got in touch abt me wondering if i may be autistic. hence the sheet#im not going to get a diagnosis bc it'd be profusely expensive#but i have the word of a healthcare person that if my scores are high and i suspect it it's entirely plausible#which is like. reassuring bc i never trust myself with mental health things and assume im faking everything lmao#anyway. 34 points on a 50 question thing. idk if that's high and if i interpreted some of the questions correctly either
