they/them | I am just a nerd, not the actual CDC

You know what, it’s time for a new pinned post!

Hello, I am CDC (they/them)! I am not the actual Center for Disease Control.

I am what you call a nerd. I know a good bit about diseases and I know how to do research, so you can send questions to me but I advise you take any serious concerns to a doctor or consult the CDC Website (assuming it falls under that domain).

I also do art and I am a firm believer in reblogging art. If y’all decide to twinkify me, I will reblog it.

Also, I am ace. I don’t really care about y’all’s shipping stuff, just please respect boundaries. Now, be safe y’all!

Please check out my art blog: @center-for-drawing-control!

I also use this blog to just talk outside of the blog persona. If you only want to see the CDC posts, block the tag “#off the clock”

I also do a bit of roleplaying because this is tumblr, and I may be cringe, but I am free.

Posts about current outbreaks and other important public health information will be tagged with “#serious” so I recommend everyone keep an eye on that tag

I am an adult with a job who is also in school, so the times at which I post are very unpredictable.

I love it whenever a new set of gimmick blogs comes around. Like all of the elvis stuff looks so fun. I miss having the energy and time to participate in that stuff

Don’t worry I’ll start a epidemic for you if you want

Please don’t, I am very poor.

Shouldn’t the government fund you or something?

products are so bad now that i have to do approximately 8 hours of research before i buy anything

Seriously, if you're planning to spend a coupla hundred bucks on an appliance, or thousands for a car, spend $4 for a month of Consumer Reports (consumerreports.org).

They're a not-for-profit consumers union, dedicated to fair and honest reviews of everything people buy. Totally worth the membership.

And yeah, if money is tight you can join for a month then cancel the membership easily when you're done with your research.

Also check to see if your local public library has a subscription, either in print or digital format (might be listed as a database rather than a magazine - that's the case at my library in Canada).
