Wow.... so you’re telling me you took an action that resulted in the death of one person...... to save the lives of many people.... who would have died if you did nothing??? that sounds so familiar

I know that skinny jeans are supposed to be for old ladies now, but like… I’m six foot one, I have small hips and long legs, I just look better in them???

I’m half convinced Trends in jeans are a psy-op to make sure women hate themselves. You’ll have about two years out of twenty where the style that looks great on you is actually in season. I’m six feet tall, pear-shaped and have a pronounced tummy, so naturally as a teen in the late-90’s/early-oughts I just thought I was hideous because my choice of jeans was low rise or ultra low rise. One time we were visiting my grandparents who were depression babies and never threw anything out so I discovered my mom’s high waist flares from the seventies and was just like “holy shit, do I actually look cute…. In jeans?????? Is that allowed” she’d even got them from the Navy surplus store and hemmed them just by turning up the hem, not cutting any of the length so I could even let out the hem and they were long enough

It’s a scam, a scam I tell you. Everyone should just wear whatever jeans look nice on them (I will say things have gotten better since in early oughts in that you can now usually find multiple styles of jeans in the store, it’s not just “do you want to expose just your belly button, or would you also like to expose some of your public bone”)

Okay I may be an idiot but I spent ages trying to figure out which bone you meant by “public bone” before I realized you mistyped pubic bone.

I mean to be fair to you, in 2003 it was very much a public bone

The anti-mask brain rot is penetrating the hospital system in a terrifying fashion.

Masks are necessary for accessing central lines, and more and more nurses are starting to have issues with wearing a mask during STERILE PROTOCOL.

These lines are going right into our hearts and nurses are throwing tantrums about having to cover up their faces for 5 minutes.

This has not happened at my infusion center personally but I have mutuals and friends who have had to beg their nurses to put on the mask that literally comes in the sterile access kit.

I have a little insight into this. It's not that nurses are suddenly refusing to wear masks, it's that a large amount of nurses quit their jobs or fell ill to the point of not being able to work or death due to how poorly the pandemic was handled. The sudden increase of nurses that are not wearing masks? A good portion of them are new recruits, replacing the troves of workers who left the job of their own volition or because of the terrible circumstances. A nursing program can take anywhere from a year and a half to 4 years to complete, so it's not a coincidence that in 2023 after the pandemic of 2020 these changes are becoming more prevalent.

The job market sucks, and the good pay of a nursing gig looks oh so appealing due to the relative ease of entry for that kind of salary and high demand. I was in a VC with some people recently and one of them was complaining about how he wanted to become a nurse for the pay, but he would have to get a covid shot. Yes, he was outraged that he would need vaccinations to be around sick people as his profession. Do you think his first priority is helping people? No, it's his own financial security. An important thing for sure, but when people are so focused on self-preservation then a job in caring for others is going to end in tragedy.

Take from that what you will, but if you see a nurse not wearing their mask while treating you, refuse treatment because if they aren't wearing a mask who knows what other precautions they skipped or how much experience they actually have. Go to the reception desk and file a complaint after your procedure, call them out by name. If the hospital sees that a nurse is being rejected by patients, then their place at that hospital will fall under scrutiny. Remember, healthcare is not necessarily your friend, but any red flag that might lead to a malpractice suit gets the legal department in a frenzy. An infection from an improperly sterilized central line can be traced back to the team that administered your last treatment. Do not be polite, do not pity these nurses, scream for someone outside the room if you have to. They are risking the lives of their patients by doing this, they do not belong in the medical field if they do not even believe in the science they are practicing.

crazy thang is whenever someone makes a post talkng about how xyz thing annoys them someone will always go 'oh so we're not even allowed to do [thing] anymore??' like no you literally can. that person just will not like you. if that is enough to stop you then its not that youre not allowed its that you are not capable of existing outside of the approval of others

My favorite thing about fanfic authors is they can identify any gap in a canon timeline where characters are offscreen and exploit the ever living fuck out of it
