I have two friends who’ve become almost like roommates to me—they sleep at a low-barrier women’s shelter (one of the two is a cis dude, but they allow couples at the shelter), and then I pick them up and help them run their errands and whatnot. I got it from them.

They, in turn, got it from a scum fuck “friend” of theirs, who basically said something to the effect of:

Lol you know how you’ve been hanging out with me in this very cramped space on a regular basis? Well I had head lice that entire time, and so do you now. Oops.

I’m not too bothered by this. I felt a little bit of shame when I first found out, but it’s kind of gone away. My scalp itches a bit.
