You know those Facebook reminders you get of stuff you posted on the same date a few years ago? On January 8th a few years ago, I was almost kicked out of my MSc of Infectious Diseases 😅

On vient de me dire "faut que tu me présentes tes amis, j'adore ton teint, c'est mon rêve d'avoir des bébés métisses comme toi, mais j'ai pas d'amis noirs" Je suis restée sans voix.

Ces gens que certains ici aiment bien appeler les "neuneus" (ou autres qualificatifs bienveillants dès qu'ils voient ce genre d'arguments) changent souvent d'avis quand vous les traitez, eux et leurs craintes, avec respect. #vaccination

Franchement je sais pas ce qui est pire, le blog/thread de Jaddo, où tous les gens ici qui tweetent que boarf ça va c'est bon elle est désolée, et puis après tout, ça arrive à tout le monde, elle a le droit de se tromper la pauvre. Bref je referme immédiatement cette parenthèse.

Today, after more than a year without my ADD medication, I was finally able to get my Ritalin. For months now, doctors in Texas have been telling me that ADD doesn't persist in adulthood and implied or literally told me that I wanted to get high on Adderall.
