Yo, if ANYONE comes to your door in costume they get candy. If they DON’T have a costume, they get candy. As a kid who grew up poor and often had a ”lazy costume”, fuck you. Don’t be a classist shit bag. Give everyone candy who wants to participate in Halloween regardless. Keep the magic alive. 🦴🦴🦴

if you don’t have to drive tomorrow evening, stay home.

if you need to drive through a neighborhood, drive extra slow and let kids and parents trick or treat safely.

teenagers are kids, and they make incredibly poor social decisions when they are in unsupervised groups- don’t hit them either.
Reminder: Halloween is the deadliest day of the year 😬

Children are three times more likely to be struck and killed by a car.

US COVID SHOTS ARE FREE.

Please do not let Walgreens and CVS mislead you or your family members or neighbors about this! They are the biggest part of the federal bridge (free shots for uninsured people) program, but the rollout’s logistics have been a little scattered and you may get pushback.
PSA: the CDC has a program that pays for your COVID vaccine if your insurer won't. The guy at CVS told me that my insurer had not added the new vaccine to its formulary yet, so I'd need to pay $190. I told him about this program, showed him the website, and paid nothing. 🤗

When facing the "All we need is STEM!" approach to education, my usual response is: Developing the vaccine was the STEM problem; distribution & getting shots in arms was the Social Science problem; getting people to trust it & combatting misinformation was the Humanities problem-- which did we fail?

Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria does not play well with social media and parasocial relationships.

Reminding myself:

folks often don't see messages, particularly if they have large follower counts

are allowed boundaries and you might be too much for them and that's OKAY

helps, but jesus christ.

This. Very familiar feeling.
I've been trying to work on this, but with everything that's gone on in my life the last 4 years, my brain hits max capacity so easily that I just end up assuming my presence is *never* desired and don't talk to anyone ever.
