Went to pole class, and now I'm
So I'm doing a super-fun CPR/First Aide online training for my new job as a behavior therapist. It's 4 hours long, but it's honestly pretty useful information.
I can't believe they didn't require us to do this when I worked as a care provider, though. Medical emergencies were an everyday possibility with that job, and we barely had any training at all.

Thoughts on social media and caring
Social media encourages us to be more performative about our thoughts and activities, including the things we care about. A down side of that is that if someone isn't performative about something, it can seem like they're not doing it or don't care about it.
Remember: people can care about things without it being a public performance, and calling someone out for not making a public performance of their very real care does very real harm.

If I keep bouncing it's tall enough for a moment tho. :O

I have today off, which means I need to spend it:
- Getting an estimate on car repairs
- Getting another livescan
- Setting up an Occupational Health appt
- Tracking down my immunization records
- Signing up for CPR classes
- Finding all sorts of diplomas and insurance documents
- Crying softly
If anyone has cute animal pics they wanna send my way, I'd appreciate it. <3
Tried one with oval eyes. Think I prefer the round though :) #mastoart https://mastodon.social/media/x_mMobmsDH4v3NcrasM

Anyone else on here with Type 1 Diabetes? #t1d #type1diabetes #type_1_diabetes?
I want to expand my network & am enjoying talking on here with other folks who have to deal with this autoimmune disorder.
Plus it's nice to have contacts in case of emergency or needing advice, especially with healthcare in the terrifying state it's currently in.
