So I need clarification on this. I’m a Cali resident but not with a Los Angeles street address and I don’t see that they’ve opened it up to outsiders without physically going to LA. Where are you seeing out of state e-cards for $50?
“I don't live in Los Angeles, may I still apply for an e-card?
Anyone may apply for a full-access library card by visiting one of our library locations with identification and proof of address.”
Edit: and I just tried to apply for a card and it told me that I needed a LA address to apply for a card. So. Yah, I’m not seeing that they’re allowing out of county - or state - cards.

We just had a family member pass away from this. I wish you the best of luck and most positive vibes in the universe. You can do it!💓
Ps. It was really smart to make this for family. You should share with your care team too! :)

Ameriprise. Would they be considered ‘bank’? Though, I’m pretty sure they grew through the crisis through a well timed purchase of a trading arm.

Repetition also has a way of forcing the issue. It’s why radio played pop songs repeatedly. Eventually you’ll start to love it and then buy it (at least, prior to Spotify). We are pattern matching junkies.

I mean, we could, we would just need to have enough money to lobby against their lobbyists. The UK has done a fantastic job fighting aminopyralids and their food system is just fine.

They prescribe z-packs for viral strep all the time, even though it’ll go away on its own.

I swear this is how my Fibro started - which is interesting since they now say there’s a distinct myalgia component to long Covid.
Take your probiotics kids!

Now that I’ve never quite understood since it’s a breathing suppressant. If you have a productive cough don’t you want them to cough?
I’m clearly not a doctor. 😏

Nope, honey is used because it’s anti inflammatory and anti bacterial. Honey is the shit.

You’d think the uni would bend over backwards to make sure he could get on the field again, the best specialists, etc. That’s really sad. I wonder if it still pains him today.

Usually because the folks who are doing pain management research aren’t actually pain management sufferers. I work adjacently to healthcare in which I review educational protocols for health higher ed. I was shocked to learn that a ‘new’ pain management teaching module did absolutely everything but discuss opiates. Which, fine - for the times it makes a sad kind of sense. But, there was literally nothing new in their protocols. And it didn’t even address part of the issues which is that some of the more holistic approaches (yoga, those fancy sea salt soak pods, acupuncture) are terribly expensive and many aren’t covered by insurance. So they build up protocols that nobody but the rich can use, and wonder why the poor are relying on opiates to be able to make it through a work day.
TLDR: we are avoiding the money problem in healthcare.
