I have underlying conditions and medication that makes Paxlovid less ideal for me (according to my PCP) but we are trying to get my roommate some. Thanks!

Thanks!! I have heard a lot of the same. I've had symptoms for at LEAST a decade so I bet it will be incredible to have a good sleep because I clearly don't even know what I am missing. Still super scared of sleeping whilst hooked to a machine. I'll get used to it but it makes me nervous now.

Just did stairs following your advice. I did not fall up or down the steps and it went pretty well! Thank you again for replying with such good advice! 💙

Thank you! That’s super helpful. I’m trying stairs today. It would be super if I didn’t add to my injuries by falling down the stairs trying to leave my apartment. (:

I have been to a nutritionist and follow their recommended diet pretty well. Exercise is limited by my knee and poorly controlled asthma but I try. My cholesterol is high because I can't seem to get ENOUGH of the "good" cholesterol. And I have a lifetime of poverty and disordered eating.

Wish that would happen with the lawsuit in Utah. The state's current defense is that our constitution doesn't specifically say free AND FAIR election so boo hoo if we don't think it's fair that the legislature overruled a majority voted initiative for an independent board to redraw the lines.

I hope so too. I’m not sure if it will happen. UT is pretty red and red people call the shots even when blue calls out the ways the they do.

I had SOOO much cognitive distress about this need to ALWAYS be consistent, especially when it conflicted with my values. It stressed me out sooo much.

I spent a lot of time with my therapist about "consistency" and this idea of tolerance. Is it hypocritical to be intolerant to the intolerant? Inconsistency is allowable when values > consistency. Now I try to own this hypocrisy because what I value is most important.

Sadly, the CC stigma is something that to some CCs being crappy. Dismantling the stigma is hard though. Also important to remember that transfer needs are different from "trad students". I spent 3 terms working with a prof on her pub about this: https://transferwritingecology.lib.utah.edu/

Thanks. My stupid asthma has been temperamental lately. Not sure why. It is usually pretty well controlled.

It's always just me and my housemate with masks. I commented to him recently about that eye contact/head nod that seems to happen when encountering other maskers. It's like a moment of solidarity in a look.

I just came eligible for a second bivalent (my immune system is weakened from medication ) and signed up as quickly as I could.

I realize instead of just shutting down the topic and moving on in our meeting I should have asked him to leave entirely. unfortunately as a female presenting and socialized being, I was honestly a little scared he was gonna get more aggressive and be an even bigger problem that I couldn’t resolve.

and honestly, I wasn't even initially talking to HER about singers. I was talking to someone else. I mentioned liking someone's vocal use and this girl inserted herself from across the room into the conversation to debate me.
03:27 PM - Mar 31, 2023
In response to Silhouettes1.
I really didn't want to debate her on the topic. I just wanted to say "we can have different opinions" but she did not want to hear that and demanded I engage. And then I engaged and it escalated and I was an asshole because I got mad.

and before someone says "well why did YOU have to "win" so badly too?" you're right. I am not disputing that I was being a jerk. I should/could have just let it go. Said, "okay you're right." and let her win. or just said "okay" and moved on more than the twice that I tried to do that.
03:24 PM - Mar 31, 2023
In response to Silhouettes1.
I literally do not care if they like someone more or I do. Or what criteria we make that judgement on. Both opinions can exist. And I was fine with that. I don’t understand why they needed to win so badly.

The /best/ parts were when he said that white folx have been enslaved worse and for longer than Black folx and when challenged to say what rights he was LOSING he said “I’m not losing any but people like you keep asking for more and more and it’s not fair to me when you get it”

The bravery and courage to just say stupid things with his whole chest. I’d admire his moxy if I didn’t think he was such an ignorant jerk.

My n95 fits pretty well but I still get a little bit of air when I sigh (which let's be honest, I'm a not-a-phase elder emo kid... sighing is required) and it leaves me all foggy. Please eyeglass wearers, how do you prevent this fog!?

My stupid body is like “yo, how’s that corneal ulcer working out for you (on top of the Morton’s neuroma and the torn meniscus in your knee)? Can I interest you in a broken boob too? Great!”

true true. Though, I'm still baffled why showing support and empathy for a marginalized group has become a political position. Hell, for a lot of folx merely existing is an act of political rebellion. It shouldn't be.

“So if you were in a romantic relationship would you still hate sex?” I don’t hate sex. “If you were romantic with someone would you become sexually attracted to them?” Maybe but it hasn’t happened yet so I’m sticking with the evidence.

“So all sexual things make you upset?” No. “So do you think you hate sex because your mom called you a slut” I don’t hate sex.
“If you were more willing to have sex do you think you’d be able to find a partner?” No. And not really a priority for me.
