CW: Bio, health, teeth, anxiety, Seattle area request for help, (redrafted)
I have anxiety about my teeth. when I'm really high, i can imagine my mouth is dying. it sucks. I have anxiety about dentist. They are all experts in guilt, no matter how gentle they try to be, and every visit is just excruciating.
I still need recs for one, though. I need a lot of work. Preferably one with the good machines and surgeons and the Good drugs. femme dentist preferred. Queer friendly preferred
Thanks,

@Austin_Dern That depends on how you feel about case sensitivity.
@Austin_Dern I still capitalize Internet.
@packbat A big part of why I can't stand using standalone web-browser-that-only-goes-to-one-site clients is that all the browser plugins and other tools I have to overcome that sort of UI thoughtlessness are unavailable. Sorry that has bit ya!
Tron, guide me so that i can fight for the Users with all my strength and knowledge
Yori, bring me the fusion of clarity of vision and peace of mind so i can carry out my missions with diligence
Flynn, help remind me that there are no problems, only solutions; and keep me sane, man
Clu(1), help me to be dogged and relentless [let me at 'em!]
Ram, keep my will flexible and help me to see that it's all just zeroes and ones in the end
@Owlor She probably enjoys both! In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if she has some specific genre associations to help keep her in the mindset of whatever she's doing. Classical for research, indie rock for puttin' pen to paper, EDM for booty-shakin'....
IIMTAMC (If I may talk about my character), Millimax is a gentle artist and healer whose fave band "Go Krodd Go" is something like ska mixed with death metal. There's no accounting for musical tastes. *grin*
"I have to admit, my favorite recreational reading is Erratica."
"... You mean Erotica?"
"Ooh, look at this beauty! 'Because of a production error involving the color plates Figure 7 is a photograph of J M W Turner's _The Battle of Trafalgar_. Though in black and white we here include the correct photograph of a cow.' Isn't that *great*?"
Remember, kids: Talk to your fellow employees about how much you're paid. No employer has your best interests at heart. They need your labor to continue doing business, and they want to pay as little as they possibly can for it.
That puts you, the workers, in the position of power. Remember that too.

poem
blue sky, you highest vaulted arch,
not often enough do we meet -
i am hemmed in always by flat ceilings
and long for the wash of your sun
promised through the windows
until after it has set, and the moon,
saint of the unknown, greets me
with its entourage of little stars
and blesses me to try again tomorrow.
@xinjinmeng This is especially fun for any software that's evolved from DOS or some other OS. The cut-copy-paste-undo set are usually intact, but anything else is chaos.
I recall the first time I tried to close FreePlane. It yelled at me about 'alt F4' not being defined. I yelled back. "I've been using Windows since before it stopped having real version numbers. Alt-F4 is damned well defined!"
