AND she's snuggly with her abusive EX.

I could be infecting my whole household now for all I know.

I would understand if the last point is worse than the rest.

From what I understand it's respiratory vapor (breathing) more than anything else (surface contact, etc) but I am super careful too.

And....... (pets)

I tried to keep my mask on all the time but "you should eat more"

I'm just very tired of being told family needs me, then having family ignore me when I try to help, then talk how they need me again when I distance myself for my own mental health

I hear you.

Suffice to say....I missed you. ((snugg))

Christmas seems to be a state where I'm going to be staying with my sister and her fucking EX ..for at least a week. I'm not sure I trust my self not to explode

87% of the union voted to strike

the rest was fairly evenly split between abstentions and nos

Sounds like you're on Strike. You need to get the word out to the press for the REAL story

Hugs You okay?

well, I need to go on Bb and delete course content

Nod Makes sense

oooh, I'm not loving the various states of drama you're all experiencing. 😞

Catnik, I'm pretty sure you can archive your content so it's not available, but also doesn't need to be recreated from scratch, right?

Mr. D., I'm sorry your family was predictably infuriating. 😞

I want to skip Christmas but I'd hear no end of it

Well...I get that.

correct

And I am grading the midterms NOW

Sorry, Catnik

I've never been on strike. What's that going to mean for you, in practical terms?

We want a good show of force monday on the line

then signing up for shifts

no pay, health care gets cut off, we lose access to uni emails/LMS/etc

I have savings

I am holding off, I think, on COBRA for a few days

COBRA is ~$1k/month, but I am unsure of the logistics for getting on and off an ACA plan

Yeah, COBRA is horrifyingly expensive when you don't have money coming in. We need a national health program.

yup

at least it is just me

family plan is like 2.5K/month

Yeah.

...

I love my kids

"The fact that satyr plays exists is really interesting to me. The fact that ancient Greeks were like "Ugh geez. All this regicide, suicide, fratricide, and sad people is really bringin me down, man. Time for 45-minutes of sex jokes!" is hilarious."

Ha.

I love that! And I love that you love that!

Your kids are on the ball

they remember the death

and the sex

"She wasn't naked, she had a BELT!"
