Self-taught trans enby that draws a lot of pure self indulgence and weird junk that they're into. Lots of 🔞nsfw🔞 so be wary of that.

Government restarted their better than nothing but still abysmally insufficient free test mailing program, I recommend taking advantage of it before they take it away...again
We got sent a bunch last time that said they expired in August, but when we checked the lot numbers using an FDA website we found out they're actually good until February. So check 'em before you chuck 'em!
I am still amazed at how much price gouging the US is allowing on tests. They're 1.50 each from a convenience store here.
Do these of these US tests still have a microcontroller with better specs than my GameBoy. Or did they finally wisen up & think about the excessive amounts of waste this produces.
Uh... I don't think so? These are rapid antigen tests, so as far as I know they're basically just some test fluid plus a test strip (in a card or plastic housing).
My main issue with them is that they require a certain level of finger strength, dexterity, and vision to use, which is annoying considering the people who most need to use them to catch illness early.
Yep, should have clicked the thingy. I think the chipped ones were at-home PCR tests (but we usually don’t need the precision anyway anymore).
The JoinStar self-tests we have make it very hard to remove the seal from the fluid tube. idk how somebody with weak hands would do it.
