Oldest child was contacted via text by a recruiter. We told them to waste their time. Say "yes, I'll talk to you about it if you treat ME to a meal at [local restaurant]." (emphasis mine)

The recruiter ghosted them after that.

I'll DM you the link. I don't want to seem like I'm advertising for them.

It was custom made by a guy in Guatemala who runs his own online shop. It's the only one I know of in existence.

 

Found this through a small company. $50 beats $200

I tried... My handwriting didn't translate well enough to be viable. I think I need to try again with a different writing implement. It looked like vertical Morse code 😅

My deviant art account is still around, it's over 20 years old now. Idk, is xanga still around? Most sites I used are gone now.

I have, for my child. A local branch of a charity covers all of the pediatric oncology patients' prescriptions so the families don't have to worry about it. They also have prepaid cards that they give out monthly to families to spend on whatever they might need.

It's fucked that I'm moved to tears over this practically every time I fill his prescriptions before we head home. Having the medicine he needs shouldn't have to send someone into bankruptcy if the charity branch didn't cover it.

I hate the price of prescriptions in this country.

Pretty much, yes. I could probably draw them now, but I make no assumptions that it would be to scale.

I can't draw you a map of routes I've taken, but I can see them in my head.

I remember drawing floorplans for fun as a kid after my dad brought home a book of them from a housing company - that was 30± years ago.

But I can't tell you what I had for breakfast this morning.

"Cotton gin" and "cott-engine" are pronounced the save way - possibly a homophone, definitely a play on words/sounds. I don't know much about Eli Whitney besides that he's credited with the invention of the cotton gin.
