Medical, needle stick 

One week after the stick and I still look like this. My veins are very bad after immunotherapy and it's hard for them to get a site. They tend to wiggle the needle about, which is very uncomfortable and also does this.

This (save for some wonky editing in the first couple of minutes) is a very good PSA on the lure of ideology that seeks to divide and conquer. It's very well made for the time.

The radioactive sugar water used for my 6mth PET surveillance scans is billed to my insurer at $1800. The scan itself is billed at $19000. Thank God I have insurance.

I think it’s important to repeat: you don't "have something to hide" when you put blinds on your windows or close the door when you're on the can or wear clothes.

Privacy isn't about having something to hide. It's not about keeping secrets. It's about you being the person who chooses what you reveal about yourself, and when, and to who, and the other word we have for that is "dignity". Your inherent dignity, as a human being.

Your privacy is the agency you have over your dignity.
