happy annoy squidward day

Actually, Annoy Squidward Day is January 15th. Although the calendar doesn’t have the month written on it, if you continue to watch the episode, they’re competing for January’s Employee of the Month.

I’ve been waiting all year to reblog this

this reply in the comments tho

This did not go where I expected from the first tweet and now I am laughing so hard I am crying.

Hey Medblr!

2020′s been one hell of a year, and it’s not even over yet (sorry to remind you).

It’s been even more stressful than usual being a healthcare worker this year, and there’s been an election and civil rights movement in the US, not to mention things happening in other countries. 

Its time to spread some holiday cheer!

@dogemd and I are organizing Medblr Secret Santa this year. 

Sign up by December 1 and you’ll get matched with an internet friend to bring some extra holiday sparkle into their life. International friends welcome. People who aren’t comfortable with physical gifts because of corona welcome. Details in this form. 

Hit us up with questions.

even if the fraud was like 5% it wouldn’t compare to rich people cheating the system by trillions lmao

Also, SNAP “fraud” is like exchanging some of your stamps for cash to buy necessities you can’t buy with stamps, like soap or deodorant or tampons

TBH even if one hundred percent of people on food stamps were committing food stamp fraud I’d still be in favor of keeping the program around

Hey I wanna talk about this.

I work at a drug addiction counseling center. A ton of my clients have, at one time or another, sold their food stamps. This is basically exactly what the GOP is afraid of, right? Drug addicts selling their food stamps.

I have learned, now, to ask them WHY they sold their food stamps. Here is an incomplete list of the answers:

- I need tampons, and you can’t buy them with foodstamps

- See above RE: toilet paper

- I was living in a hotel with no kitchen then. I had to buy pre-prepared food

- The homeless shelter won’t let me keep food in my locker or room, so I have to buy pre-prepared food (Yes, really)

- I had to make rent

- My sister had to make rent

- My son had to make rent

- I needed co-pays to get my medication or I’ll die

- I needed co-pays to get my medication or I’ll loose control of my mental health

But the absolute most common form of food stamp fraud I see? Giving away food stamps to other family members who get no food stamps or insufficient food stamps to feed their families. I see that every month. People glassy eyed and hungry because they gave away their food to their adult kids, their grand kids, cousins, siblings etc.

So, is food stamp fraud rampant? In some places, yes. And I’m not about to chastise people for it.

reblogging because it’s still true and important

I’ve also found it incredibly alarming how quickly some people forget about their own dependence on food stamps, who then rant and rave about it. Like, I survived malnourishment as a kid because of food welfare programs, but my dad still complains about others with BS arguments. 

Don’t let people who think of poverty as a character-growth opportunity forget how welfare programs contributed to their own success or changes in position. My parents might be ashamed, but that doesn’t mean they get to shame, rebuke, humiliate, or unduly criticize others because of their emotions. Know the facts and how the whole system works inside society and shared cultures.

My mother told me recently that “you can have four kids on welfare.” I was like gosh, mom, that sounds awfully like you want to limit people’s fertility because they are poor. Never mind the fact Medicaid paid for a couple of my hospital births.

Girls day out on the town

Yes.

Okay so we have this rusty old thing in our one flower bed that would make an awful noise when you turned it and Buck Buck absolutely hated the sound of it, freaking out every time, wanting to somehow fight it??? Anyway I haven’t turned the Sphere of Rage for several years now and figured I’d see if it can still work its great and terrible magic.

Seething chicken hate.

I suddenly remembered about Buck Buck and the sphere of rage and came looking for it.
