Jabberwocky
Frumious Bandersnatch
I had to get bloods taken today and the little Filipino phlebotomist couldn’t find a vein anywhere on my arms - they are just hard lumpy ropes or completely gone.
I casually mentioned they were fucked from drugs “long ago” and pointed to the one sweet spot I had left. The phelbotomist asks what drug and I say ‘meth’. He holds my hand gently and says “back in my country I do the same before: we call it shabu. My veins also bad”.
I say, TOTALLY AS A JOKE, “yeah much better to smoke he, holding my hand ever so queerly gentle, asks TOTALLY NOT JOKING, “You want to smoke? I have...”
As a roughly one week clean and, mostly hetero when sober meth fiend, I couldn’t get out of there fast enough.
This shit is everywhere and damn hard to escape. After I left I figured I must have been having a psychotic break and imagined the whole exchange out of deeply unconsious desires for amps and queerness!!!
On the plus side it shows how liberal Australian immigration and employment is: if a queer filipino tweaker can become an allied health professional!
