Like what with all the fascism going on, Trump teasing a third term, and even now passing a law to be able to deport U.S. Citizens. I can’t imagine people taking these threats lightly. So basically, how are you holding up?

    It’s pretty bleak yes, our own families sold us out for this shit in their malicious ignorance, I just heard a VA employee tell me an email went out advising all hospital staff to remove rainbow lanyards or stickers or anything “safe space” identifying in their offices, because some patient had complained. This came out while we’re helping my gay veteran friend get ready to die of cancer. Cause he shouldn’t feel safe in the hospital or anything.

      The patient that complained should go to a different hospital then. The lack of spine from the hospital administration is embarrassing, frankly apaling.

      But given that hospitals in the US are just profit-oriented companies instead of actual healthcare, not too surprising.
