  • Primary care? No. I generally get in on time.

    Specialists? JFC I waited an hour and a half one time for a literal BY LITERAL I MEAN LITERAL 2 minute appointment. I almost fucking left at the 1 hour mark but that’s when they started telling me I was next. This place charges $50 for missed appointments without 48 hour notice too. And 10 minutes after your appointment time is considered missed if YOU’RE the one who is late.

    Which all makes sense until they leave you in the waiting room for an hour and a half and you’re left wondering if you can charge THEM for your damn time.








  • Open a free brokerage account now and buy an index fund. Only index funds and even if it is $20 or $4 a month keep investing in index funds. Fidelity has several with no fees. Google what an index fund is. Don’t ever gamble on a regular stock, it’s basically gambling and not worth it.

    I thought I was too poor for the “stock market” but I was an idiot and now I’m a much older still-broke idiot who is never going to get to retire.

    Also start saving for retirement now. Open a Roth IRA and fill it with index funds.

    I know this sounds ridiculous and stupid and not fun but seriously preparing for your financial future is the best thing you can possibly do for yourself. I wish I had.

    Don’t be me kids.




  • Fun fact! I was literally tortured (yes, actually for real) by Collective Soul so anytime I hear one of their two “hit” songs I get flung into PTSD flashbacks. I have to cover my ears and basically sink to the floor or immediately leave the area if that’s possible.

    Suffice to say I hate them.

    Also I was a retail slave for over a decade and hate all Christmas music. Super mega hate.

    Edit: abused by the music, not the band. Sorry I didn’t mean to be misleading.
