This is why I am much more of a cynic nowadays. So much fud and I can’t go down a rabbit hole with every one to determine why its wrong. Oh man and my wife stays informed with youtube.

¿Por Qué No Los Dos?

so many places requiring a credit card. They say they will pay you back if they get an insurance payment but many don’t even try. screw up claim and don’t attempt to fix it because the insurance is only going to give them a tenth of what they bill. things are so screwed up here.

wait. you want high humidity?

again?

unfortunately unlike facebook and its ilk this will effect your ability to get a job. I can’t really drop my linkedin or populate it with bullshit. even after I retire younger folks I work with will need to be able to get in touch for references and such.

usa. You wait hours here even if it is pretty immediate. I have seen a guy bleeding through hand towels from chainsaw accidents waiting hours. What im talking about though is a legitimate emergency sends you (or in this case my wife) the the er. When you are stable enough to leave they direct you to follow up with your primary and that is where it still take a month to get that follow up. Even though you were in the ER and the ER does not really fix you up completely they just basically get to where your not in danger of dying in the near term.

Yeah sorry was just resgistered as a republican but too young for the first trump election.

I swear reddit had a community around news articles and such about conflicting beliefs. have not seen one in the fediverse.

well and actually my wife has a lot of issues and so it is not a physical but is not a virus. long term things that have to be worked out and she is lucky to get those within a month. Actually even emergency room they say to follow up with primary care and that can be like a month. and it was the effing emergency room. oh and specialiasts are pants with any follow up here, especially with complications.

wow. just wow.

I can’t get a sick visit in a day. within a few days maybe. they tell me to go to urgent care if its that bad which is possible same day but not your primary care who knows you medical history.

and its not like you just go to non emergency surgery. there is a generally a process of identifying the need with the primary care that requires multiple visits so if the primary care takes a long time it effectively makes the non emergency surgery take longer to actually get done. This is even the case in emergency cases where it takes the primary to identify you have something very very wrong with you.

See. stuff like this is how you get the threat to democracy “rhetoric”

So this guy says things like what outlined here:

But Donald Trump, on his social-media network, Truth Social, wrote that Mark Milley’s phone call to reassure China in the aftermath of the storming of the Capitol on January 6, 2021, was “an act so egregious that, in times gone by, the punishment would have been DEATH.”

and people react with hey that is a threat to democracy and they whine us pointing out the threat to democracy is rhetoric. Its not rhetoric when its based on actual things. Whats funny is the assasination attempts both seem to be voters of his from 2016 and just before that we got one of those convicted from the riots who showed anger because they left them hanging in the wind. Seems to me all the anger they have bread into the folks they weaponized is coming back to bite them.

Its so weird how outlandish is gobbled up. Its like being in the eighties but half the population insists the weekly world news is the real source of truth and votes based on its articles.

lol no. like this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umbrella_hat

im not even sure sos was available back when I got them. I was leary because they seem costly for what they are but have to say saved me from losing my keys and I think my phone once for like a total of half a dozen times. Finding them quickly and with less stress. worth it. once was at a grocery store and the keys that had fell out were to far to hear but an employee started bringing them to the customer service desk when the xmass music started to play from it.

im pretty sure if I press my tile it will ring my phone

I make regular jokes about my wife and run it by her for approval. And I bring my laptop over to show pictures.N junk.
