But hopefully less sneezy.

Alcohol 

I got me some "almond nog" from trader joe's and some spiced rum, so here we go....

I'm moving into my new place today. It's a scary but ultimately good feeling.

I was about to say sleep to y'all when my browser typed a ☕️​ emoji and then unexpectedly quit.

Um. I don't think the computer wants me to go.

gender + appearance 

@Fenreliania

Aww, those are good feels :3

CW: Diabetes, death mention 

@OsirisSaline

Oh fuck, I hadn't even thought about that. Jfc. D:

At UCD we had a t1d group & helped each other out if we ran out of supplies or had emergencies on campus.

But most Davis students are v. privileged & as a rule we all had health insurance- if you couldn't get thru parents or work the school had a plan.

Graduating and turning 26 has been scary tho.

But yeah that price gouging is fucking horrible. No one should die bc they can't afford medicine.

There's this woman with glasses and green hair on Jeopardy who's an archeologist and did programming on a robotics project in her free time.

Permanent vs current address? American 

@okiekiki@toot.cat

Thank you! I'll set about changing as much as possible tonight.

I recently graduated college, which is why the distinction has been relevant up until now. Up until recently my parent's address was my "permanent" address because I was a college student. But no longer.

Thanks for the info!

Organizing my insulin by expiration because OOPS it *does* have a shelf life.

*luckily most of them are good thru 2019.

**I'm doing this because I'm paranoid about losing insurance and want to have as much insulin as possible while I still have it

***I totally went and ordered the cheaper test meter and test strips that @mimtschan@witches.town​ recommended. That will provide peace of mind.

@Cobalt

Yuppp. The implications of being raised as a "nice girl" can be really devastating.

It's a habit I'm trying to unlearn for myself, but even as I try to be more assertive, I have to be mindful of the potential threat in many situations. Sometimes it's safer to play nice and compliant.

(Note: I am not a woman, but I'm a nonbinary person who is frequently enough read as a woman in public that this is still a big part of my life.)

O no

Permanent vs current address? American 

Does anyone know the legal definition of a current vs permanent address?

Right now my Driver's license lists my parent's address & I am registered to vote in their county.

I'm moving to a new county on Dec 1st. I plan to do my USPS change of address to the new home. What other paperwork do I need to do?

Will I need to update my address for Medi-Cal? Change drivers license or voter registration?

Any advice will help, thanks!

This is what keeps me up at night.

@guerrillarain@witches.town

Haha that's okay.

Pittsburgh CA doesn't really have any trees so that makes sense.

@Fuego and spices?

Tbh this looks like a great time, dairy allergies aside

@guerrillarain@witches.town wait Pittsburgh Pennsylvania or CA? Because if CA I'm totally gonna go look for that today.
