My sister, who I live with, thought she couldn’t get the vaccine because she doesn’t have insurance.
We’re not really used to “free”…. spread the word.
It depends where you go too. I tried to sign up at CVS and it said “free with insurance”
In the US they are not allowed to charge an individual for this vaccine. They are allowed to bill your insurance. Whether you have insurance or not, you will not pay anything.
THERE WILL BE A QUESTION ON THE REGISTRATION ABOUT INSURANCE YOU DO NOT NEED TO FILL IT OUT.
When I registered there was a page for insurance information. We were instructed just to put “no insurance” and keep going.
I saw the Kemono Friends x Keroro collaboration, and I was inspired to start redesigning the froggies again! I think I’ll stick with this general look for the platoon’s uniforms. What do you think? :3
I am inactive on this blog, but thought it would be the best bet for asking for help to attend graduate school this upcoming fall. I was recently accepted into Vanderbilt’s graduate program for secondary education, an opportunity I do not want to miss out on (given it is one of the best programs in the country for education). I have a scholarship that will help me pay for tuition - but do not have the funds to pay for room/board, food, a car, etc.
I work full time right now and plan to take on an additional job both now and over the summer to prepare. I have already started applying for jobs in the Nashville area and am hoping to hear back soon.
Any help at all is appreciated - and if you can’t help but want to share, that’d be extra appreciated!
I’m posting the links here because the

Anyway that’s why you wear wool and a life jacket babeeeyyyy
The important thing about wool is that it continues to keep you warm even when it’s soaking wet.
Other natural fibers don’t do this. In fact, quite the opposite. Campers and boaters are usually familiar with the phrase, “cotton kills.” If you’re wet in cotton or linen, your clothes actually sap heat from your body.
If you sink in a lake in late October like I did today, staying warm is important. I was rescued long before I would’ve actually died, but cold makes your muscles seize up, which isn’t good if you have to swim to land.
Which brings me around to life jackets. If the water’s cold enough, you may only have five-ten minutes until your muscles seize (today I probably had 40-60, more than enough time to get to land if I hadn’t been picked up), and you’ll drown.
In a life jacket, even in extremely cold water, you can float semi-conscious for perhaps another 30 minutes or so before you actually freeze to death, which is usually when someone rescues you.
What’s more, you probably know that moving around on land warms you up. Jumping jacks, jogging in place, etc.
In water, moving actually makes you colder. You need to stay still curled up in a ball, which you can only do in a life jacket.
In wool AND life jacket, you’re warm, and your head’s above water, which is pretty much your only and entire goal.
If you’re allergic to wool, synthetics are available specifically for this purpose. I know I always say natural fibers are the way to go, but when it comes to safety, wear what protects you!
Yep! A really simple “experiment” I learned as a kid and now use in my own courses is sticking your hand in ice water. Compare moving it around in the water to curling it up in a fist. The contrast is stark!
To increase your survival time in on cold water, you want to curl up! If you’re with others, you want to huddle!
Again, both are only possible when wearing a life jacket!
I know a lot of people are reblogging this for writing reference, but I like to believe that 7,000 people on this site were actually continually living in fear about this specific situation and that when the time comes, I’ve prepared them with what they need to know to survive.
no smart appliances in this house. absolute fucking moron appliances only. my toaster is there to make bread hot not to tweet what time I ate breakfast or whatever the fuck
don’t need my goddamn microwave to snitch to the nsa
Uh yeah holy shit remember on deviantart when you were talking to people you could insert reaction pics into your messages because you could at people so that you can see their icon and people made accounts for different reaction pics and you would post them into your comments by going like :iconragefaceplz: and it was extremely specific the amount of :iconplz: accounts were infinite? What I’m describing is very specific and was a huge part of da culture
When Terry Pratchett talks about how other species were accepted as long as they acted more and more human, and how the great melting pot seems to only melt one way, that does something to me every time
when Charles Bukowski said “and when nobody wakes you up in the morning, and when nobody waits for you at night, and when you can do whatever you want. what do you call it, freedom or loneliness?”
