Amen. It made a lot of established pain folks reduce or cease entirely their pain management protocols. Still left with their pain, they went to the street for help. And now they’re fent addicts.

This whole thing is such a mess.

Or ‘due to your socioeconomic background, you appear to be under elevated levels of stress and are therefore no longer qualified for this type of healthcare. Please pay for your parking on your way ou.’

But even then folks with those genes deserve pain management care too. Needlessly suffering because your grandfather was an alcoholic is just cruelty wrapped in a ‘care’ bow.

Yes. Yes it is, which is why we’ve been screaming about bias for years. Yet they keep not addressing it and instead write articles like ‘look how great this is!’ instead of ‘look at all the power we are giving to our own biases!’

California was suppose to be one of those light colors, that was the entire purpose of our state system. Seeing what it’s like today makes me so sad.

Misinfo for everyone! 🥳

Thank you, I’ve actually been curious of it’s origin too (love language history!), and for some reason assumed it was French/Latin.

Is it Spanish? Or is it Latin?

Only when I’m reading things about my career.

Reading about magical creatures makes my career feel rather flat in comparison. It’s a damn good stress reliever though!

I feel like she should’ve understood this the first few years she was helping. The rest of us understood that the UN weren’t some benevolent angel organization.

I didn’t know I needed it until I read that. 🍒

Had no idea the eastern seaboard had never had Jack in the box tacos at 2am. Damn shame, that.

They sound privileged and unreflective.

Not everyone gets PTO - or full financial coverage from disability, at least in the states.

We used to have them as a kid. They always look so happy.

I thought it was twilight fanfic?

It’ll take them forever to get through it, and by then they’ll be adult. Well done, loophole locked down. 😎

A 14 yr old doesn’t need to know about butt plugs or the overuse of the internal monologue ‘oh my’.

Such a sorry excuse for fanfiction.

14 yr olds kiss. Like, in real life. Anybody ignoring that is crazy.

So the only thing I’d be worried about is the amount of violence, but it’s not difference than any other YA fantasy. There’s always some violence in it.

“Hi buddy. Buddy, are you okay? You don’t look good, buddy.”

As someone whose salary is 80% multi grant funded, I felt this deeply.

Yep, their poo is gardeners gold.

See? The propaganda’s already working. Say they believe in their husband’s rape of civilians during wartime and suddenly bombing auntie and meemaw doesn’t sound so bad.

Stress is a helluva drug.

Yep, if you bomb the soldiers, you bomb innocent civilians.

It’s fucking gross.
