#is absolutely abysmal

[sandwich247]

The software that they use is so old, bespoke, broken, and has a million different extra thingies added on after the fact by different companies that all probably no longer exist which makes it exceedingly slow and painful to use and that’s on top of everything that they have to do every day to keep the waiting lists down

If I had full, unilateral control over every aspect of every medical system on the planet, as well as having infinite resources and an infinite pool of people to hire from, average patient seeing times would be changed from 10 minutes to an hour for the average person with longer appointments available when necessary

Each doctor and nurse would have 2 assistants who would be (well paid and) trained on proper note keeping and doing all of the ancillary administrative tasks that are necessary

Anything less means that things that really should be seen to will be missed because of all the extra stuff that they have to do, and the way things are just now, they have to do everything with all the extra stuff and see so many patients every day - it’s not feasible to have them do what they’re doing and still provide any real good quality of care. That they’re able to do what they’re doing just now is nothing short of a miracle 

Favorite part of seeing a new doctor: when they ask about birth control

Doctor: Sexually active?

Me: I'm over 35 and have a toddler, so we'll say yes but it's really more of an aspirational thing.

D: Hormonal birth control?

M: No.

D: Are you trying to get pregnant?

M: Ha, no, once was more than enough.

D: Barrier method?

M: Just the aforementioned toddler, so no.

D: If you don't want to get pregnant, you really should be using some form of birth control.

M: Oh, I am. I find that the absence of fallopian tubes is extremely effective.

D: o___o checks my record Oh. Right.

M: >:-}

i know this post has probably been made a million times but i cannot get this scenario out of my head

for whatever reason, merlin gets dragged into like training or sparring or a competition or whatever the point is, he has a sword in hand and is to fight against someone. arthur and the knights aren’t really expecting anything to come of this, they know merlin doesn’t really fight. but for some reason he does, maybe arthur made a comment and merlin wanted to prove him wrong, maybe it’s a challenge/trap and it’s life or death, idk but merlin picks up the sword and fights

and all of a sudden, the knights aren’t watching a scrawny serving boy swinging a sword around, they’re watching a carbon copy of their king, of arthur, dancing with his opponent, his sword an extension of his own being, arthur’s own personal moves and techniques are executed flawlessly, merlin even smirks and taunts his opponent the same way arthur does with an uneven curl of his lips and raising a hand to beckon them forward

perhaps its from training with arthur one on one for years mixed with the countless hours he spends on the edge of the training grounds watching arthur and only arthur follow the same exact dance but merlin quite literally is arthur in that moment, a brilliant, deadly swordsman with unexpected grace and an easy victory

Shipping Anya and Curly in Mouthwashing is absolutely ludicrous. (Shipping anyone in Mouthwashing is, really, but thats for a different post.) Do you really think that Anya would ever, in a million years, feel comfortable dating her abuser's best friend and enabler? In trying to make "fix it" AUs that depict Curly and Anya as a couple, people are completely casting aside the fact that instead of helping Anya in any kind of way by allowing her to sleep in the med bay, giving her the gun, or putting Jimmy in the cryopod until landing, Curly did nothing for her. Curly is more willing to try and “keep the peace” by speaking to Jimmy than actually take actions to make his crew member safer. Are you implying that you want Anya to be with someone who wouldn't stick up for her safety and wellbeing? This kind of thinking also plays into the idea of heteronormativity, that a woman, by default, must be attached to a man in some way to lead a good life. It implies that simply getting with a man will “fix everything” and make her safer. You, like Jimmy and Curly, are robbing Anya of her autonomy and personhood.

I think the funniest possible version of "everyone in Bionicle is aroace" is "everyone in Bionicle is aroace except for Matau"

for the life of me didn’t have the words to articulate at all why mtc vs bat is very likely, esp since all the divisions are roughly on the same page so here i am trying it again lmao

but both teams experienced an individual change in each member’s life paths, whereas the other divisions more or less experienced a change in team dynamics. juto put it real easy lol, but they’ve come to realise their violence, influence and armed combat aren’t what they need to change their country, when that’s been their fuel this entire time

and for bat, kuukou’s determined to guide humanity out of their cycle of karma, despite previously not expressing that desire, jyushi believes in people again when he became a shut in before bc he became afraid of people, and hitoya is now willing to judge by actions rather than the person that does the action, something that’s always led him to decide to ruin lives

rhythm games with control schemes that force you to consider how to hit certain patterns r more fun to learn imo than ones with static control schemes that you only have to learn reading and speed for

[tauforged]

didn’t have the energy to post about it when it happened and now i’ve compartmentalized it enough that i kinda don’t wanna dredge it up. but im absolutely fucked at work. like my boss shut the office door behind me and while we were in there alone she berated me and pressured me to sign PIP papers without reading them as i was sobbing because “none of this should be a surprise to you, don’t read it, just sign it” so i am uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh not AT ALL doing fantastic. current objective is to find a new job asap so i can quit this one before i kill myself lmao
