    HORSE SHIT (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone

    Read excerpt

    Two months ago, in rationing, my pharmacy stopped giving patients a three month supply of estradiol patches, and I paid the copay for one box of eight. Okay, so it meant an extra copay when stock came in, but at least I wasn’t going without. A month ago, my pharmacy ran out of stock completely (and all the other patch strengths and patch doses, patches by all manufacturers) I’ve been coming to the precipice of applying my last patch in the box. Like many of you, I’ve lengthened the use time of e

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    I am in no way affiliated with The Long Term Care Community Coalition. They are just what their name sounds like and they are based in New York State. At first glance of their website I am not seeing anything controversial or polarizing about the org, so I shall proceed with the link: NY state has proposed cutting training hours for Certified Nurse's Aides.When I was 19, I was hired to take that course through a local nursing home (as they were called then). It was 120 hours of clinical work and

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    Finn shaved off his prominent and scratchy salt-and-pepper beard yesterday. It is taking some getting used to. A beard takes away a lot of expressive nuance. I didn’t know what I was missing, and now that I do, I hope he never grows that thing back out. Where there was plain mischief, now there is mild perversity.

    I picked up a short shift yesterday evening. It was easy and I had the space to reflect.At home we’ve been focused on Finn’s project and me assisting/mentoring in some of the steps. Through this my attention is turned firmly back in the direction of creativity, and what I would like the next twenty years of my life to look like. This focus has me wondering how tenuous the balance is, because it seems unshakably stable. I am esteemed at work. I was promoted. The women to whom I report are experie

    I am going to be sorry I started this post. I have to leave for work in one hour and a quarter.Finn is in his office, printing, folding, and stapling his zine. I should be helping but I have to resurrect any connection I have to the outside world via this idiotic platform and awaken the Freaks Independent Press. We’re headed to the seaside next week, and he is bringing a box of zine copies as well as stickers/patreon merch to plant up and down the beach library boxes. It has been so fun to watch
