OMG. A hospital employee in a rainbow lanyard just came up to me to say, "I'm so sorry, I don't want to make you uncomfortable, but your hair and outfit and tattoos are amazing. That's all!" It was super sweet, and I felt a community bond, and it was a lovely counterpoint to my morning so far. 😍 🏳️🌈
Like, sir, you are in a fucking hospital. Put your fucking mask on, sit down, and shut up. Nobody needs this, least of all your poor wife, who looks like she would rather be anywhere else.

Doing a repeat DDAVP challenge (bleeding disorder thing) so am stuck at the hospital for several hours, and some guy is loudly and aggressively lecturing his wife and her friend about how wearing a mask is bad, actually. Telling myself it would be wrong to throw things at him. 😒

I'm always like, dude, you want to send me a half-naked selfie? Try taking one of those with you folding your fucking sheets or actually doing your goddamn taxes. That'll get you further.
HELL YEAH
