~65% of ostomies are reversed - unless you are a Black American where the rate is ~56% because of medical injustice.
If you can't attend a protest because bathroom access is limited, you aren't less-than. We all show up how we can.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but...
sodastream cannisters are so hard to get because we're driving less
and CO2 is a byproduct of ethanol production for gas
and less biofuel is being manufactured
(1/?until it's too late to finish homework)
So dry ice bidding wars are starting (!)
and CO2 bidding wars are starting to keep up with dry ice manufacturing demands
AND super cold vaccine storage takes A LOT of dry ice if you don't have specialty freezers
Happy World Ostomy Day! I'm always available to read your comedy script and explain why your ostomy joke is 1) hack 2) medically inaccurate 3) weirdly enough not a strong enough cultural touchstone for the joke to land.
I'm keeping a healthy distance from social media, but popped in to catch up and say, "What you posted, but meaner."
Watching @kellymcgonigal's TED talk on stress for class, and the described "social stress test" is...
"a five-minute impromptu speech on your personal weaknesses...there are bright lights and a camera in your face"
IT'S STANDUP Y'ALL.
(This is a niche tweet, pardon)
If you are a woman in comedy who IS NOT sexually harassed on the reg, it's normal to grapple with a gross feeling of being "not hot enough" - that's patriarchy talking, and we're going to kill that together.
But in a weird way, if you are a comic who's not experiencing this objectification and has weird weird WEIRD feelings about that, we're getting his by this misogyny too. It comes from inside, it comes from outside, and it's something we're gonna squelch.
For my mutuals that have enjoyed sports-betting-on-politics jokes, turns out there's @PredictIt.
If my political bets are as good as my recent day trades, we're screwed.
Pardon the lack of retweets and amplification - I've just been reading articles and shrieking impotently.
