My #stoma #telescoped a bit today, but thankfully I was able to get it #unelescoped. Sadly though it's since gotten a bit hard & swollen necessitating a change to a new #OstomyBag that ended up needing to be held on by some strong #SkinTape. All this has left me feeling a wee #frustrated.

As we approach #RemembranceDay here in Nova Scotia on N0 11, I've changed my profile picture temperately to a photo of the #WhitePoppy which is an alternative to the more commonly known red poppy. The white poppy symbolizes #peace.

For quite some time I've hadda live with the fact that I best avoid the consumption of any food & drink that're any warmer than room temperature. This is cause they've been causing my poo to be runny & to run a lot.

Made a help post about my #GRUBMenu issue on the #LMDEForums. Got a #fix that'll render my GRUB menu in #ConsoleMode, still hoping for 1 that'll render it in #GUIMode. & if a simple fix can't be found for rendering it in GUI mode than I'm willing to call this solved. #LMDE7 #Linux #troubleshooting

Being dependent on a medication because it works and treats/manages your symptoms, is absolutely not the same thing as an addiction.
This distinction is super important, and needs to be better understood by public and healthcare alike.

The only thing I've left to fix in my install of #LMDE7 on my mid 2009 13" #MapcBookPro is the #GRUBMenu not loading during #booting. The next step for me is to make a help post on the #LMDE section of the #LinuxMintForum & see what advice fellow LMDE 7 users can give me. #Linux #troubleshooting

Every time someone talks about “curing” autism, what they’re really saying is:
That autism is a disease
That we are broken
That we shouldn’t exist
It’s not just wrong - it’s dehumanising
We’re not a problem to be solved.
We’re real, valid humans
Why is that so hard to see?
