I love genuine questions and people putting in the effort to love and understand each other better. If you come at me just wanting to argue I’m going to troll you back. FAFO.

  • And Karen repeatedly murdered all of the foster children she adopted over that six year timeframe by skinning them and feeding them to the local geese. Her neighbor began noticing about 2 years in that the children would all go missing within weeks of arrival. Over the next 4 years this neighbor filed multiple complaints with the police, CPS, and the foster care agency, but all of them just said the children probably ran away. It turned out this was because Karen’s grand-step-aunt twice removed was head of the city hall floral arrangement sub-comittee…




  • Occupational therapy like physical therapy but for fine motor control (usually the hands) instead of gross motor control (like the legs). It can also refer to the neurocognitive / attentional ability to engage in complex tasks. In this context I mostly mean splints like this but it can also refer to stim jewelry for people with autism, adhd, and similar that benefit from having fidget items or other stimulating material such as a chew on hand to reduce anxiety / agitation and to help with focus. Basically if you would need it to do a desk job, it probably falls under occupational therapy, but it also includes the same skills but applied to leisure and other activities.






  • Relying on emergency services only wastes soooooo much money. Waiting until problems are acute and they HAVE to be treated under EMTALA means doing way more expensive treatments and clogs up emergency services. Not to mention that not vaccinating or treating bacterial infections results in a bunch of cooties getting spread around the community. And when they’re getting those emergency services they can’t pay for them so the cost has to get absorbed into the bills of the patients who can pay either directly or through insurance.

    “I don’t wanna pay for other people’s Healthcare!”

    You already are, just in the least efficient and most expensive way possible.
