The state of my mental health is indirectly proportional to the number of unhinged memes I post to my close friends on IG. We’re at 4 in 24 hours. We are so fucking back.

this may seem trivial to post while the match happened but i am still miles away from that, so this is my own hurdle, even if it may seem small in the big scheme of things.

A Georgetown University researcher, who was studying and teaching on a student visa, has been detained by federal immigration authorities amid the Trump administration’s crackdown on student activists whom the government accuses of opposing American foreign policy, according to court papers. Masked agents arrested Badar Khan Suri, an Indian national and postdoctoral fellow, outside his home in Rosslyn, Virginia, on Monday night, his lawyer said in a lawsuit fighting for his immediate release.

An IG post from account snarkynurses BEFORE CALLING IN SISK. 7 QUESTIONS TO ASK MYSELF BEFORE I MAKE THE CALL! • Am I sick? If "yes," stay home! • When is the last time I called in sick? Is there a pattern developing? • How many days have I called in sick over the past 2 months? Will I have any sick time left if I wind up really needing it? • What impact will staying home have on my co-workers? Am I letting them down? • What impact will staying home have on the patients/ members/ customers? They'll miss me and the great care I provide. • Have I been taking care of myself? Rest, good nutrition, and exercise keeps me healthy! • Am I really sick? If "no," I'm going to work to make a difference!

PeaceHealth SW, come get your trash.

It's a new year which means some of you have renewed your FSA/HSA funds. Naloxone/Narcan is available over the counter in the US (and at many online pharmacies) where you can use your FSA/HSA card to pay for it. I live in an area with a lot of opioid overdoses so I carry it with me when I'm out.

hey guys i didn’t watch the who inauguration thing…how cooked are we on a scale of blue rare to congratulations?
