i’m graduating + entertaining a cutie so i’ll be sparse until about tuesday
uwu
Oh I should also say my requirements for a room: close by, mUST BE RUN BY REEDIES AND NOT THE SKETCHY ALUM KIND, and MUST BE UNDER 450 DOLLARS
and I must be able to move in on Tuesday, no exceptions
I just found out that the house I was visiting today will not work out and I…
OK SO HERE’S THE SITCH, THIS IS TMI AND GROSS AS HELL
so i went to urgent care about this cyst i had in a real awkward spot (read: just an inch north of the brown eye) that had burst during my psych appointment today and was draining literally fucking everywhere like the elevator from the shining
turns out this little darlin has a few things going for it:
- it is the mother of all ingrown hairs (not surprised, i get them like some people get text messages)
- it has tunneled from my outside (perineum) to my inside (rectum) and is draining from both WHICH IS REALLY BAD BTW
- IT REALLY NEEDS SURGERY TO GET FIXED
i thought everything was cool, i have an appointment tomorrow to get a consult about getting the new asshole i tore myself all stitched up and fixed, and i got a scrip for some antibiotics to keep me from basically shitting into my bloodstream or whatever while i wait to get my butt cut up and sewn back together
slight problem:
apparently my health insurance ended without telling me about it because i’m not allowed to have it as a student and the provisional thing they were going to put me on i apparently didn’t jump through the proper hoops for when i filled everything out to apply for it
so right now i’m uninsured and i need butt surgery, like i said
and on top of that, i need to pay for my psych meds ($82), my psych visit ($125), the urgent care visit (fuck only knows how much), and at least two therapy visits i’ve gone to since it apparently ended ($50-$75 a pop, she wasn’t real clear on it and hasn’t gotten back to me on the exact figure)
the county sent me another app for the disabled workers’ thing so i can fill that out and get it in asap, but until i get approved, i have shit i gotta pay for
(the bright side is, if i get approved, i can get everything covered to 90 days BEFORE receipt of the application by the proper party, but i don’t want to just scratch my ass and assume i’ll get approved since that rarely works out well)
anyhow if anyone wants to toss a couple bucks my way to ensure i can afford said butt surgery, i have paypal at the bottom of my blog page
if its only minor surgery and they don’t actually knock me out for it i’ll see if i can liveblog it while it happens, at least as some kinda “thank you” to the folks who donated
worst that happens is i just give a rundown on what they did and how they did it and what was involved
cos i know all you fuckers love gross biology shit as much as i do
and it dont get much grosser than butt surgery
please help vermouth with his gross butt problem
you learn mathematics in school because it develops abstract thinking skills and numeracy at a time when you are experiencing rapid brain development
polynomials and trigonometry in particular are great tools to introduce people to the treatment of mathematics not as purely a tool for manipulating numeric quantities but rather abstract objects, and how to apply a set of rules to derive a new result, to work toward a specific result from a starting set of knowledge, and how to understand when a given logical statement can be said to imply another and when that reasoning is flawed, etc.
it’s similar with english class; it’s probably never going to come up that you’ll have to explain to someone the themes underlying shakespeare’s macbeth but it’s a very useful proxy for being able to draw implied meaning from the english language, as well as for understanding things that are being presented from a different cultural frame of reference
science classes are a way to develop critical thinking, investigative reasoning, and to provide knowledge that can be applied to being a more informed citizen when it comes down to things like understanding political parties and their stances on issues that affect the real world
fine arts classes encourage an understanding of the world that is deeper than first-glance inspection, and an understanding of the media that humans use to communicate with one another in ways that words at a basic level don’t, while also developing fine motor skills and cultural context as a bonus
if you’d rather that school were a 6-hour daily exercise in rote learning of topics you could easily pick up with 12 minutes spent on google then you’re probably seriously missing the point of education
not to say there’s still massive problems with the way education is taught in most places in the world.
