…what on earth did African Grays do to deserve an insult like that??


Sometimes you need a guillotine.


By all means, behaving like a Nazi should be a major mortal liability. ICE agents are enemies not just to the United States, but to humanity as a whole. They should live in fear; and may that fear be actualized sooner than later.


The animosity between generations is a lot like the animosity between races or most other us-vs-them bullshit in that it’s manufactured to keep potential allies fighting against each other.
This is ultimately a class war - everything else is a distraction.


Might be more of a developmental impairment. For children, magical thinking is normal and expected. They might sincerely think they can cause something to happen by thinking about it or engaging in some kind of paranormal way. Like, if a 4 year old points at you with a finger guns gesture and yells ‘bang’, they might just be trying to be silly; but they might also be genuinely trying to kill you. You’ll know if immediately after, they look down at their finger-gun with a wtf expression cuz they’re actually surprised it didn’t work.
Again, normal. Unnerving, but normal.
They should grow out of that shit by about age 7 iirc.
Lots of people never grow out of it, they just compartmentalize that kind of thinking as religion… they know they can’t kill you with finger guns, but Jesus? His finger guns are real!!.
Those people need a fuck ton of therapy.


The disconnect is one of class, not generation. Generation draws a lot of attention, both in solidarity and in backlash, but if you’re expecting the world to suddenly become better when boomers die off, or for X/millennials/Z/etc to swoop in and save the day, you’re in for disappointment.
The ruling class will continue to make our existence as dystopian as possible until we break out the guillotines.


My guess is now agencies are having to pay out a fuck ton in overtime and temp/traveler positions. …which was an expected outcome from day one. Don’t think of this as a blunder: Elon, Trump, etc are enemies of the United States, and crippling our mission while simultaneously making it even more costly was their goal.


Working in the OR. Anesthesiologist draws up some fentanyl, and I asked him if it was enriched. He looked at me like I’m a dumbass and asked “with what?”
-_-


US deep south. The only sorting of trash I see in the hospital is sharps vs non-sharps. Outside the hospital, sorting is vitually nonexistent… there’s no recycling here, everything just goes in a landfill. It’s fucking stupid, but this is what we get for putting Nazis in charge of everything.


No idea how they dispose of it. I’ve asked my immediate management chain if I can take damaged/pitted instruments that need to be replaced to donate to the local colleges - Anatomy & Physiology classes all have a lab component to dissect something, and the school I went to had instruments that were absolute garbage.
The answer was no… We just put instruments that need to be replaced in a red bin with other sharps like needles, and the bins are shipped off somewhere, probably to be incinerated.
Bigger stuff like equipment, we send to the biomedical engineering department for outprocessing. From there, no idea. Probably land fill.
I wouldn’t dumpster dive at a hospital though. It’ll be a sea of ruptured catheter bags, linens saturated with poop, and just all manner of pathogens. And probably sharps - that stuff is supposed to go in sealed red bins, but all it takes is one lazy employee and you’ve got yourself an HIV+ needle stick.


I work in an operating room, and have been around long enough to see multiple pieces of perfectly good equipment get replaced just because it hit the manufacturer’s end-of-life date.
I’m talking things like a several-hundred-thousand dollar microscope for microsurgery.
Basically that date means if the microscope fucks up somehow, the vendor takes zero liability, and any legal expenses fall onto the hospital… so we trash it and buy another one. Rinse and repeat after another few years.
That end-of-life date is always crazy early, and is like that 100% because the manufacturer knows hospitals would rather just treat a quarter million dollar microscope as disposable than accept liability for an equipment fault.
The waste is unreal.


Seriously though, that poor worm!


Well, if the cheeseburgers don’t do the trick, world class healthcare can only do so much in the event of [removed by mod].


That’s because his health itself is seditious and treasonous. If he’d just hurry up and succumb to his decades-long suicide by cheeseburger, that’d stand out as his one and only act of patriotism.
Ad hominem
Flagrantly false. Gaza has been leveled since Biden left. Not leveled vs leveled =/= just as bad.
pre-loaded accusations
They’re called logical fallacies. The one you just used is called a false dilemma. If you don’t like me drawing attention to them, I’d recommend refraining from using them.
It doesn’t matter if the Nazis are sad; what they need to be is dead.
