Happy Cancerversary to me! I mean it! I am who I am today because 2 years ago cancer broke who I was into a thousand pieces. Who I am today is what was rebuilt out of those pieces. And I like who I am today. (But also fuck cancer.)

[JenQuixote @QuixoteJen]

We'll be on in just a moment! So excited to get to inhabit this world for a bit!

[Jim Ryan @otherdoc]

Since my internet has returned, let's dive into Dune, shall we? 😃We'll kick off the story of House Versai tonight at about 8PM Eastern!

[JenQuixote @QuixoteJen]

Popped back on Twitter cause it's worth it to call your attention to this fundraiser game, live now, raising money for children's hospitals. Come explore the supernatural with us for a few hours, and help us raise money for kids!

[Valdrianth @Valdrianth]

Last day friends! We've got three more games for benefiting our @ExtraLife4Kids #ttrpg marathon!

First up this morning we have the #SCP TTRPG
ST: @ArnicaxRoss
Players: @KaosCryptid @QuixoteJen @SpookyEvilOne

We're $945/$1500 raised so far!

[JenQuixote @QuixoteJen]

I think I need to log off Twitter and assess where my ethics and priorities lie in relation to this site. Sending good vibes to my cancer community! <3

@JudsonKimmel1 @EyeVey @ThanksCancer Which is why I think we need a solution that is more complex than a single nationalized healthcare system would likely provide, if we want to maintain high quality of care.

[JenQuixote @QuixoteJen]

@JudsonKimmel1 @EyeVey @ThanksCancer As a cancer patient and a healthcare provider, I do worry about rationing of care in a single payer systems (I’ve seen some heartbreaking stories here!), and many of us will opt to be cash only if our alternative is to work for an inefficient, intrusive system for half the pay.

[JenQuixote @QuixoteJen]

@JudsonKimmel1 @ThanksCancer I think people really don't get how limited our political power really is, and how variable our influence is depending on where in the US we live. Not to mention how many of us are nevertheless working as hard as we can to make things better (even while having cancer!!).

The gender today is the smell of a library and sound of someone walking on snow.

@schmoulinrouge Once had someone a few rows behind me friggin whistle along.

[JenQuixote @QuixoteJen]

@ThanksCancer If we're defining trauma as being an event or situation, then it 100% is. If we use the technical definition that it is, instead, an emotional reaction to such an event, then that depends on the person. But it's a rare person who would not have such a reaction to cancer!

[JenQuixote @QuixoteJen]

It is so exhausting that, every time I find myself in an intellectual or professional situation with strangers, I have to go to great lengths to prove myself in order to not be talked down to.

[JenQuixote @QuixoteJen]

@ThanksCancer Lol the neverending question!

[JenQuixote @QuixoteJen]

@ThatDangPhil The are legion!

[JenQuixote @QuixoteJen]

All of a sudden I'm getting followed by a string of "name+bunchof#s" people and it's making me really nervous.

[JenQuixote @QuixoteJen]

@saraofswords O.M.G. it never ends!

[JenQuixote @QuixoteJen]

@saraofswords Ooo perfectly put, gonna remember and remind myself of that word for word.

[JenQuixote @QuixoteJen]

@saraofswords lol tweeted before correcting spelling of accommodate but oh well

[JenQuixote @QuixoteJen]

@saraofswords Yuuup. My biggest hesitation is worrying that they may be patients who haven't posted about it yet, but, now that you say that, it occurs to me that that's not my responsibility to acommodate.

[JenQuixote @QuixoteJen]

And no offence intended at all if your handle is similar, it's just a tendency for trolls and bots to look that way too.

[Tobie Nell Perkins @tobienell]

@ZachWilcox4's story from tonight explains why this issue is deeper than one instance. I implore you to watch it. Like he says, we have not heard from the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office or Gov. DeSantis (who was at the game). https://t.co/gpDtejWIBT

If you don't know what she's referencing here, a) it's important that you learn and b) see link below.

As a Jew living in Jacksonville, I'm disgusted, I'm nauseated, I'm afraid. I want to know what's being done.
