Just one quick bitch, part two

[Gopher Gary]

The AI bots have deemed me unfit for a supermarket shelf stacking job. Which I honestly thought was the kind of job anybody could walk into if they were willing and physically able.

I mean it's funny, but also I fear for our futures, having such merciless algorithms deciding who shall earn money for survival and who shan't. I'm as good as dead

Was there a reason given why?  If there was any indication of being overqualified for a stocker job, or already being full time employed, then that might have been it, maybe assuming there was no interest in a long term position.

Doc was Thursday, did bloodwork.

All is like perfect and super healthy, except for one troubling marker involving my pancreas and tri- and diglycerides.

Doc wants me back in and I'm to fast for twelve hours prior. She wants to do specific things to my system to stress and identify trouble.

Tests are to take six hours, but when done I will either be Type II diabetic or as for the past thirty years, still borderline, but no action required.
I've done this before, but old doc retired and new doc wants to max out my insurance.

I have things to do, so I am thinking of giving her the finger and asking for another assessment of my bloodwork.

I have literally been on the cliff of Type II Diabetes since I was thirty something.
My body seems to be still handling things. Huge diglycerides seem to scare the fuck out of young doctors, but I have always had this.

Don't think a six hour starving test is warranted.

How about the fact that I eat ten times the amount of salt that most folks eat (German heritage, many salted meats!) and that number is normal? My cholesterol is high, but really high GOOD, with almost no BAD.

I'm not really interested in more testing. Fuck that! I feel better than I have in times passed.

Another note:
Along in May, I got my bicycle new tires, adjusted it to specs and I have been riding around 5AM for an hour or so, almost every morning since.

Missed a few, but going out for a long early morning ride has loosened up a few old joints and really given me back my wind.
I just feel so much better than a few years ago and this doc wants to just rip my insurance for all it's worth.

Fuck this bitch!!
I need a new doc!!

^And then you get docs like mine who doesn't think I need to be tested for diabetes even though I'm fat, female and over forty. I've also had a number of low blood sugar episodes.

But he's pretty thorough usually, this time I'm to have an ultrasound on my lower right abdomen because I've had some cramp-like pain there. It's probably my bowel, he said. I just think it's odd because I haven't had pain like that before. It's very random.

Why are MAGAites so loud?

Take a look at who they worship.

Do I continue on living my life, or hide from people?

[renaeden]

Continue living your life. Get your stories out there. Don't hide, other people will miss out on the glory that is you.

Kayleigh has a bad cold (though she said it's the flu, it is NOT the flu) and I'll be peeved if she passes it on to me.

I'm not feeling too well. I have this dull pain in my upper abdomen that won't go away. I've had it for days now.

They're openly making fun of a 17 year old kid just because he cried when his father was giving a speech at the DNC.

Can't he be proud of his father without being made fun of!?!?! Seriously Fuck you Ann Colter!
