In the USA, it’s 100x cheaper to take an Uber to the hospital instead of an ambulance.

I don’t know if this is true or.. Like, having to pay for an ambulance that is taking you to the hospital? That doesn’t make any sense. What kind of distopian world is that?

It costs thousands of dollars to ride in an ambulance

In America some people with chronic health conditions like epilepsy literally have to wear medical IDs that say “don’t call an ambulance/911”. Some well-meaning person calling an ambulance for you will turn into a thousand (or couple thousand) dollars that YOU are on the hook for, even though you didn’t make the call. So, PSA: if you see someone having a seizure, look for a medical ID! You should only call an ambulance if: the person is elderly, pregnant, or the seizure lasts more than 4 minutes. Otherwise, wait for the seizure to pass, then ask the person if they want an ambulance when they regain consciousness.

wtf

Oh my god what. Here in Quebec, if you call an ambulance for something they deem non-emergency, you get a bill later for like $180. But if it’s anything like a loss of consciousness, chest pains, labour, whatever, or if you’re in a public place and a a well-meaning samaritan calls 911, it’s paid for by the government. Seriously, everything about healthcare in the US makes me want to cry.

Imagine a world where you have to wear tags to tell people trying to help you that “It’s ok, don’t try to help, I can’t afford to pay if someone tries to save my life. I’ll just take my chances and hope it’s not life-threatening.”

Literally the point of this post is that Americans do not have to imagine that world. We live in it

This comes around every so often and ima keep reblogging until we stop living in the dystopian nightmare

first day of 2018: some ugly youtuber with bad hair films, exploits, and makes a mockery of a suicide victim

second day of 2018: the president has a big dick contest with kim jong un and threatens nuclear war

We thought 2018 was bad,

2020 said "hold my beer"

i let the furby skins soak in fabric softener after i washed them and my sis found them and sent me:

and i have never laughed so hard x’D

never do i ever want to hear the words “furby skins” uttered ever again

You never peeled a furby?

What the absolute fuck

No idea what furby is, but this is funny

I have since met a furby. Yes I said met bc they are demonic little shits and I'm terrified of them. The only time anyone in that house sleeps is either a.) They're stoned b.)they're basically in a coma or c.) The furby is not in the house

When the whole party is down but your bard is up

Ra-ta-ta-ta-ta!

sitting on the floor is an emotion

as a kid:

LISTEN

DID PSA by the way, but be careful who you trust with letting know about your dissociative amnesia / memory issues because as much as it just sounds like something innocent, it is very easy to use that knowledge to take advantage of you / give you false information / make you believe things that happened weren’t true.

I’ve always been careful about it - often telling at most “haha I have a clinically diagnosed memory issue so please be patient if I forget things” but never the extent I have forgotten things.

Be careful also who you accept to give you “fill ins” and “catch ups” on information you forgot and who you trust when they tell you you said / did something because really, some people can easily abuse the “well you just don’t remember” or “how could you possibly know if what I said was a lie because of your memory issues”

I’m just saying this cause my mom hella just tried to tell me lies about my childhood when I admitted I didn’t remember a large time period of my childhood, so just be careful.

THIS ONE DEFINITELY BRINGS JOY

current mood

Humans are weird: Religion

Alien: Friend human, I have a question about religion.  Human: Alright but let’s go someplace first.  *Human leads them twenty miles outside the city to a barren field with nothing to see in every direction* Alien: Why did we come here, is this place sacred for your faiths? Human: No. Just wanted to be out of ear shot because if you say one thing wrong about a persons religion they tend to flip their shit.  Alien: I see. So about this “christianity”- *Random preacher popping out of the ground*  Preacher: Did someone say christ??? Human: Oh god damn it!   ———————————————————————————————————– Alien: Your world seems to have several dozen if not hundred different faiths. Why is that? Human: We humans like to have variety.  Human: You’ve got your individual god, your pantheon of gods, gods of nature, gods of the elements, gods of life and death, gods of the sun and the moon. You name it, and we probably have a god for it. Alien: *Chuckles* What, even for procreation?  Human: Oh shit yeah. How much time you got? There’s plenty of those.  ———————————————————————————————————– Alien: I heard that there were “Norse” gods that had recently come back into worship. Where did they go? Human: They didn’t go anywhere. The people that worshiped them either gave up the faith, were wiped out, or converted to something else for several centuries.  Alien: What makes these gods so special? Human: In my opinion they’re probably the most human like. They’re not perfect and make mistakes and keep moving forward.  Alien: How very thoughtfu- Human: Plus they have shit like super large wolves, giants that are made of snow and ice, and have hammers that can shoot lightning.  Alien: ………. Alien: Human like indeed.  ———————————————————————————————————– Alien: And what of these three? I believe they are called “Abraham” faiths. Human: Each of them are probably the ones with the most followers around the world. Boiling it down to their core they all preach that there is a single god that sits in judgement over all of us.  Alien: If they are so similar why do they not combine into a single larger faith? Human: Because anything looks simple once you boil it down, that doesn’t mean they’re all the same.  Alien: Even humans? Human: Alright Dahmer, let’s not get crazy. ———————————————————————————————————– Alien: This god amuses me.  Alien: See? Look what he has on his head.  Alien: *Shows human picture* Human: *Sees picture* Human: Oh yeah, Horus.He’s big with Egyptian culture.  Alien: He wears a bird head over his own head, is that not funny? Human: That’s not a mask, that’s his actual head.  Alien: But…..but he has the body of a human.  Human: Yes, and the head of a falcon.  Alien: So there are humans with bird heads!?!? Human: Shit man, it’s the future. That would honestly not surprise me in the least.  ———————————————————————————————————– Alien: This does not make sense. How can a human become a god? Human: Ah, that’s Guan Yu. He was such a badass for his time that after he died whenever people went to war they prayed to him to lend them his strength.  Alien: Was he not just another human? Look, his beard goes down to his knees, surely he was a joke of his time. Human: Not counting that the guy lived to be nearly 60 by all accounts despite being on the battlefield most of his life and the average lifespan was somewhere around 25-35, the guy was strong enough to cut through a horse and rider with a single stroke of his blade. Alien: That’s hardly a feat with laser swords. Human: Yeah, we don’t have those. We just used sharpen metal sticks.  Alien: *gasps in shock* ———————————————————————————————————– Alien: I am confused by this one.  Human: That’s Buddhism. to them Buddha isn’t a god, but an enlightened human that achieved inner peace and sought to help others.  Alien: This doesn’t sound much like a religion to me.  Human: Religions comes in many forms and sometimes that doesn’t mean you need an all seeing being hovering above you on a cloud; sometimes it’s just a random person that wanted to make the place a little better.  ———————————————————————————————————– Alien: This one sounds exciting. Human: How so? Alien: It comes from some of your science fiction novels you gave me. Alien: It calls for the worship of a god of eternal love and desire called “Slaanesh” Human: Oh no…… ———————————————————————————————————– Alien: So I was reading this book by  H. P. Lovecraft - Human: Nope. Human: Nope, nope, nope, nope, nope, nope, nope. Human: ………… Human: Nope.  ———————————————————————————————————– Alien: Do the Greeks have their own faith?  Human: A while ago they had what was called a pantheon which was a collection of gods. Not sure if it’s still widely practiced or not.  Alien: A collection of gods you say? Sounds rich with lore. Human: Nearly 75% of it revolves around the male gods being unable to keep their dicks tucked between their legs for more than five minutes and fucking anything that moved.  Alien: ……. Alien: You can’t be serious.  Human: The god of the seas got pissed that one of his followers didn’t sacrifice the right bull to him so he had the dude’s wife suddenly fall madly in love with the bull and then made love with it giving birth to a half bull half human monster. Alien: You will be the death of my people’s historians as they take their lives learning this horror.  ———————————————————————————————————– Alien: This scientology sounds promising. What science do they worship? Human: The science of scamming people out of their money.  ———————————————————————————————————–
