Oh shit I'd never thought of this but yeah

Had second woundcare/debridement today, ulcer's visibly improving. Ultrasound yesterday indicates the issue is probably in a superficial vein (not DVT!) and can be treated with a relatively simple outpatient procedure that kills the vein and lets the body reroute it. Wonders of biology, eh?

Black people are 6x as likely to die in childbirth as their white counterparts. This is not a biophysical reality. This is solely due to murder by medical negligence. A hate crime. The number one factor of safety for Black people in birth is having a *Black woman* as a doctor. 🧵⬇️

The Scandinavian Model

I want one of those grunt style shirts with the flag and Blackhawk chopper on it but it just says "WHERE CAN I PISS"

This was Denis Leary's original speech in "Demolition Man".

America didn’t turn shitty because he became President. He became President because America was already this shitty. That’s the uncomfortable truth that nobody wants to admit.

I think I saw a shawarma trailer. Will verify after this appointment.

Finally have an inhaler again which is nice. My asthma doesn't flare up very often but it sure sucks when it does and I have nothing for it.

Having a fun couple days off getting a checkup, blood work and a leg ultrasound. Woundcare tomorrow! Figure since half my family is dying I might as well jump on the bandwagon and become something of a sicko myself...

Late SST years

Ghost of a ghost of a flea...

Gonna set up a Nextdoor account so I can post stuff like "WHY CAN'T I SHIT???? HELP ME, JESUS!!!!"

Those coastal spiders are a different breed, the cobwebs on the gear rack of my Dad's Subaru I took home are still intact after 1K miles at highway speeds.

Some call it Mother's Day, some call it Mothman's Day, what matters is we're celebrating those who are most important to us.

Happy mother's day I need a drink a proper drink

This little shit has been eating my roommate's rhubarb. You know what you did, fucker.

"Uh it's mythology not history..." LISTEN HERE JACK IN THIS HOUSE THE MUSE SPOKE TO HOMER AND CALLIOPE DOESN'T TALK SHIT, SO JUMP BACK IN YOUR LITTLE BATMOBILE AND TAKE THAT MALARKEY BACK TO DUNKIRK YA BARBARIAN SHITHEEL ALSO I DUNNO WHY I'M JOE BIDEN NOW

Some of the bands are a bit derivative but that's still a harsh indictment of an entire genre

Raggedly road weary and tired but I'm home

Gonna start a band called HOTT BROOM

Never wake up here

since apparently trans women arent allowed to say it on bluesky, allow me, a cis white man, to say it: will stancil is a dipshit and a manchild his posts and behavior heavily imply that he is actively dangerous for women to be around and he is a security risk to any sensitive operation

New Dwyer project, slaps as usual

If i am reanimated after my death you better be using proper necromancy and not fucking AI

RE: Period pieces Looking at the cover of an old issue of "People" in my aunt's bathroom about "Diddy's Downfall" and now I'm imagining Diddy in a bunker screaming "NEIN NEIN NEIN" while bottles of baby oil fall from the walls with every aboveground artillery strike.

Can we please quit letting Christopher Nolan do period pieces?

Never been so happy to be in Oregon City in my life. Subaru ran the highways like a champ but it really doesn't like the hills in this town.

Leaving out in a couple hours.

One of my favorite songs since I was a kid.

I'm 41 today. Not a real happy birthday but that's life sometimes. I'm gifting myself two things this year, pizza delivery from the local place tonight and leaving here tomorrow. I've done what I can, no use staying any longer.

Oh no some of people at the Daily Wire might have to get real jobs

You know that feeling when you really have to piss and it gets worse the closer you get to the toilet, like you might be just about to go in your pants? That's how I feel the closer I get to leaving here. Monday will probably be the best day I've had all year.

Painted these sheds exactly 8 years ago today.

Quitting smoking again once I get home is going to suck.

I'll be on my way home in a few days and I can't fucking wait. The coast is a great place to visit if you're out for a good time, might even be a good place to live if you can make a decent wage and find people who aren't crabs in a bucket. But if you're in any misfortune the salt rusts you quick.

This is a great point, one of my best friends growing up developed a meth problem and invaded Russia. Well, actually he wound up living out of a Honda Civic in Montana in February for a while, which is kind of like Stalingrad if you squint.

Transfer of the Subaru was actually way easier than I expected, minus the three hour wait at the DMV.

The summer I first came out here it seemed like everyone I knew was playing this. Hadn't thought about it in years.

I am once again asking for your financial support. I've received a lot of help already and I appreciate it so much, but my rent is due tomorrow and that is going to eat up the lion's share of funds raised. Starting to see the end of this, but I could definitely use another push. Anything helps.

Going down to take this in for a couple hours every night has become kind of an appointment lately, gives me something to look forward to as I wade through the bullshit every day. I'm homesick as hell, but this is something I can't get there and it really helps clear my head.

I do miss him.

in case you were under the impression the occupation of Minneapolis was over

Talked to the property management rep and she says the company might be willing to buy Dad's trailer outright. Submitted my offer and documentation, fingers crossed. It's not a palace but it should finance some life improvement if so.

My Dad more or less taught himself to read when he was in jail and I'm proud of him for that but I hope to the moon and stars that his misspelling of everything from my first name to his mother's maiden name in official documents doesn't throw a wrench in the works.

Apparently the fundraiser I was helping organize back home before I had to come out here went off like fucking gangbusters and raised $2K for the Tenants Union and Food Not Bombs. Uplifting news to me at this time.
