There’s a lot of talk about how to prepare for economic catastrophe.
A big part of that conversation should be developing skills to help others. Especially through care work.

the thing I hate most about that rfk quote is that autistic lives have value and worth and beauty and dignity whether they are able to do the things other people do or not. no one is defined by ability or lack thereof and to frame divergence as lack is monster stuff, utterly godless
People need to be told honestly and clearly that there are massive upheavals in store, of which today’s fires and floods are just the first waves. That coping with them without continuing to make them worse will require massive transformations and sacrifices which will be hard.
N95 masks protect against wildfire smoke, airborne viruses, and more. They are an essential public health tool. Like condoms and many other public health tools, the government should make N95 masks free and easily accessible to the public throughout the year.

starting an audit at the hospital and the PI was like “you do not have to count a protocol violation if you assess that the patient condition does not require the protocol” and I said “I’m not allowed to assess so I’ll find more violations than anyone else” and she said “yeah”

one time at shift change in the CVICU we were doing a seemingly-critical STAT CT but they were actually fine—only a mild injury from accidentally smacking their forearm into the donut of the scanner—and when I called the unit to update they said, “can’t you send ‘em back through to check the arm?”
I teach math (counting, addition, subtraction, fractions, measuring, precision, accuracy) to adults who wanted a career that didn’t require math (nursing assistant students) and it’s Really Hard

it’s my job to look for a phone number for a newborn’s primary caregiver for public health follow-up after birth. sometimes, they have no phone number because they came here a few weeks ago to give birth as a non-resident. do I put that in our government records? no!!

my friends and I have long disagreed with you on this, it’s nice to finally chat
sexual violence and so you should be extra vigilant for any action of yours that makes trans women and acceptable target of cis men’s ire
I don’t even know what specifically you’re referring to well enough to explain it, as explaining it seems important to you. My best spoonfed harm reduction attempt was at the beginning of the thread—it is your “class” interest to throw transfeminine people under the bus to safeguard yourself from

elucidate that debt and its enaction!
but, if you’re making a sound bite for white tboys, whose biggest egg fear is almost always losing the entitlement to care they once had, you’re going to need a better explanation
the tboys can no longer extract care work (not even from tgirls, they can extract sex tho) in this framing
I expected nursing to be a role trans women took on once they were socializing as a woman, but they were usually closeted/working as men nurses first then left bedside bc of violence
nursing places great value on people who look like they could be the patients’ hot granddaughter and I know trans woman nurses so I expected different results in our survey of trans paid caregiving than we got
yeah we’re chill I’m just autistic and annoyed at my irl obligations today, so if I sound annoyed it’s not real or not at you. Thanks for chatting
it’s not that trans women don’t do care work, but rather that specific care work is transmasculine—it is only given to people who are not (due to transmisogyny) thought to be predators and it masculinizes your gender role. This is part of anti-Blackness and the role of the white Lady
