#i had to send it

[clonerightsagenda]

I think this is just a trend everywhere but I've been very frustrated this week by how much admin work is being outsourced to me as the patient/customer.

My orthodontist tells me I can make an appointment with the surgeon. I call the surgeon. They tell me I need a new referral. I call the orthodontist. They do a referral. I call the surgeon. Referral didn't come through. They tell me about their special unique system we have to use. I call the ortho again and walk them through the referral. I call the surgeon. They say the referral was missing some details so they have to do it again. I call the ortho.

The insurance company calls me about repair shops. I give them the name of the repair shop which I already gave them yesterday. They say they're not in their system but I can use them, but I have to call the repair shop to ask them to contact the insurance company. I call the repair shop and they say the insurance company is supposed to email them.

I feel like at a certain point these constant fetch quests become unreasonable?? Is it too much to expect these groups to communicate with each other instead of making me run back and forth between them???

the curse of adhd:

i will remember with absolute clarity, when the thought strikes me that i have a text to send someone, that this is the fourth time in three days i've attempted to send this specific text

i will forget, in the time it takes me to pick up my phone, that i picked it up intending to send a text

"Hunter, may i have some lööps?"

"No."

"I am starving, Hunter."

"As am I, Lao Shan. The kind Hunter's Guild has thrown the lööps at me. ME, LAO SHAN. I believe they have taken a liking to me."

"No Hunter, I have seen this before. I have observed many things. From the Sapphire Star once heralded as a hero, to the world ender known as Fatalis. And from my experiences I have learned that the Guild will give extra lööps to a Hunter before sending them in an impossible quest. There will be terrible monsters in that quest, Hunter."

"LIES, THAT QUEST IS WHERE THE CHOSEN ONES HUNT TO BECOME TRUE HEROS. YOU ARE A FOOL, LAO SHAN, AND YOU SHALL BE LEFT TO BE DEVOURED BY THE ENDER OF WORLDS WITH YOUR BACKWARDS IDEAS."

"NO, HUNTER. You must believe me. Share with me the lööps and you shall not reach the desired rank for the Hunter's Guild. They will spare your life, Hunter.

"AHA. SO THIS WAS ALL A PLAN TO STEAL MY LÖÖPS. You truly are despicable, Lao Shan. I will not trust your lies."

"Hunter, when I was but a wyrmling in my youth, when my size meant I was harmless to the Guild, I saw it. I witnessed a hunt where no Hunter was left to tell the story. They were vicious monsters, brother, and I saw the truth. I saw the Dark Demise, Fatalis, scorch Hunter's corpses, melting their armours into its own scales. Ahtal-Ka relished in the weapons left by the deceased warriors left in their wake, Hunter, using it to grow its own arsenal. Their bones nothing but trophies to be worn by Nakarkos in their wake. THE HUNTER'S GUILD ARE THE TRUE MONSTERS, HUNTER. THEY LEAD HUNTERS TO THEIR OWN DEMISE, SATISFYING THE DEMONIC BEASTS MEANT TO BE SLAIN."

"Your story amuses me, Lao Shan, but does not convince me. I shall have these lööps myself and be heralded as a hero by the Guild"

"I am sorry for you, Hunter. Your eyes cannot take the blinding light of the truth and you scurry back into the cave. I shall remember you, like I have for those that came before you."

Some doodles from today (yesterday?) as I play more GU, and gosh do I love Gammoth

Also Lao looks like the lööps cat when he stands thus: Lao lööps

Enjoy :>

the easy grip on the knife. the leg over the seat. the hand over the other seat. the sassy "come get it" move. you know the bitch is smiling behind that mask even as he said the line.

By now, there's lots of people have heard about the internal CDC memos for all newly prepared manuscripts (like future scientific papers waiting to be published):

There's so much to comment on, and I'm seeing it all right now. What the state of science is. What this means for the queer community. All of that.

But fuck, I think I might genuinely start crying over this. As a transgender biologist, this feels like a brutally personal blow. I slowly accepted my gender alongside my biology education. The more misinformation that was spewed about "biological sex" by mainstream media, the more my professors, colleagues, and primary sources would casually drop information that proved they have no idea what they're talking about. I'm not an expert on sex determination, gender, or transgender biology specifically by any means. But my worldview has been crafted by my studies in genetics and molecular biology.

Engaging with this research helped me demystify transition. It helped me optimize my transition. It helped me explain how HRT and other steps of trans healthcare work to other people. And it helped me overcome my own internalized transphobia, and finally start transitioning, despite knowing I wanted to since my preteen years.

Who knows how enforceable internal guidelines like this will be. But its certainly going to scare a lot of researchers away from transgender healthcare and science in the coming years, and that breaks my heart.

There's a lot I can say here, but fuck. I just needed to vent for a moment. Fuck.

Obsessed with Blind! Eddie Munson meeting Steve and them hitting it off like instantly. And Eddie bragging constantly over the phone to corroded coffin/hellfire because Steve is great. He’s funny and bitchy and he makes all these sounds that drive eddie crazy —- anyway, he’s just super excited for his boyfriend to finally meet his friends.

And then when it finally happens it goes different than expected because yeah Eddie knows Steve is great…. What he didn’t know was…

“Holy shit,” Jeff says into the weird silence after Eddie’s introduction.

“What?” Eddie is worried.

“He’s hot,” Jeff says like it pains him to admit. “Like… like really, really hot. Like he might be a model hot.”

“Is he blind too? What’s he doing with Eddie?” Gareth asks under his breath and then grunts like he just got an elbow to the gut for it.

Steve just laughs. “Thanks,” he tells Eddie’s friends.

He doesn’t sound too embarrassed about it or like it’s a joke at all that his friends have concocted and holy shittttt

“Wait,” Eddie says quickly, twisting to hold Steve’s hands, “wait, wait, wait, are you— just how out of my league are you???”

“Eons,” Gareth wheezes.

“I’m not out of your league,” Steve says and Eddie can practically hear the eye roll as he tugs Eddie close and kisses him on the cheek. “Obviously.”

Something about Viktor and Jayce waking up and cuddling in bed idk. I was sleep deprived and finished this at 6am in the morning after being up all night. So that’s why the lighting doesn’t make the most sense.
