feral gardener, approach with caution

Mission Hill, Boston | the car, not the song | powder keg, just add match | he/they/them | Chronic pain patient battling to survive the DEA/CDC's "war" on opioids.
Xray: my spine
♏️♓️♊️♿️🏳️‍🌈🏴‍☠️
Pinned
For the record:
My spine.
It was broken for two years prior to the surgery that placed those screws, but not one doctor bothered to look for it. I was labeled faker, drugseeker, junkie, addict. One X-ray was all it took; none of Boston’s finest medical facilities did it. My rage matches his.
Seconded.
Emphatically seconded.
When they announced Sowmya Krishnamurthy was writing the Roc A Fella book, some people contacted me saying I should be writing it instead…

I never would’ve pitched that book idea, nor would I have accepted it if it were offered to me. I want to write about Black Boston shit. LET ME DO IT ALREADY.

Why does it seem like politicians live longer than we Americans?

The answer, of course, is health care.

The have an unfettered access to good health care.

Why don't you have the same health care they do?

I thought they worked for you?

I thought they had your best interests at heart?

Weird.

I'm sometimes asked why I focus on gender-affirming care for trans youth. It's because the regime chose to start there, and if they succeed, it won't end there.

New post on why this is the front line and what you can do before tomorrow's 5PM ET deadline.

from the perspective of someone who might want to be president, the best time to run for the white house is now, not later. so if AOC is thinking about it — if the white house is her ambition — then her best bet is to throw her hat in the ring
You Know What? Maybe the Time Is Right for an AOC Presidential Bid
She’s only 36, and there’s a good argument that she should run for Senate and bide her time. But she also could be a formidable White House candidate.

I woke up today with this blasted headache. Nothing in my repertoire has done anything. If it’s still here in the morning I’m going to be rather aggravated.

Yeah, the cost was the core issue, from what I've seen/ead.

It was absolutely unhinged to think families already going into debt to take their kids on $5,000 trips to Disney were gonna cough up another $5-6k for Star Cruiser.

Disney trying to go "luxury" is an incredibly stupid choice.
I was very excited about the interactive star wars hotel experience and if we could have afforded to go we would have. It sounds like it was REALLY bungled, though.

Every Olympics it's the same stories about how the free condoms run out and the punchline is always "athletes are so horny lol" instead of "we didn't buy enough condoms again"
Olympic villages ran out of free condoms. Organizers promise a Valentine's weekend restock.
Olympic organizers promise that the villages where athletes live won't run out of free condoms again during the Milan Cortina Winter Games.

Notice this says farm WORKERS!!!! These folks are not the ones who will receive the Trump cheques!
The Trump administration’s attacks on H-2A wage protections make it harder than ever for farm workers to earn fair pay. This #ValentinesDay, remember: Love means justice. Love means protection. Stand with farmworkers. Show love to the hands that feed us. ❤️#WeFeedYou

Hey, so one thing to do for Black History Month is sign this petition for Eddie Sweat to be inducted into the Horse Racing Hall of Fame: www.thepetitionsite.com/540/203/619/...

Eddie was a Geechee Gullah man from South Carolina and arguably key to Secretariat's success on the track.

🚨 The Trump regime released an HHS Medicaid dataset that can be used to build a ranked hit list of abortion and gender-affirming care providers, organized by patient volume, with names and addresses. They called it open source transparency.

my white ladies, it’s time to go read about the history of fire, fire investigation, arson and fire safety if we’re doing this. Because 3 minutes to get Baby’s First Accelerant Fire going is just gonna get a felony charge.

this is a shrieking neon red alert siren - any MD with this kind of anti-opioid agenda proudly listed cannot be trusted to treat pain adequately.
lol the pain management/rehab/physiatry doctor who allegedly has experience with EDS also has "opioid safety" listed as a research interest and a paper about how they implemented an "opioid use reduction" program at their acute rehab facility that increased the percentage of patients--

In terms of what cures are being lost:

- Epstein-Barr virus is perhaps the major trigger for multiple sclerosis
- herpes simplex virus causes cold sores, genital herpes, infections in babies, deadly meningitis
- shingles virus causes an intensely painful disease
