Can I take my chances and live like a peasant 500 years in the future?
I figure either the world won’t exist and I dodge all the existential crap that is fretting death, or I get to fly in spaceships like one flies coach today and maybe conditions will have improved for the bottom 10%.
“yeah hi I’m not conservative but I’m someone who also likes freedom! Not just freedom for me, but freedom for everyone, including those who don’t look and act like me!”
These don’t seem to undeestand. When you play the song of punk out, it sings that true freedom means solidarity, not conformity.
I don’t like this version of fifty first dates :(
Whoa this is kind of a big deal:
“I’ve gone into kidney renal failure, they’ve given me four days to live, transferring me to a specialist hospital in urology,” her post says.
This was back at the beginning of April no less.
For those who don’t know kidney failure is fucking awful. I’m not going to say how it compares to cancer but it’s a way I hope I don’t someday go.
Already did. This discussion is useless. Bye.
You need to start reading things more closely. Are you stoned right now or something? If you actually read what I wrote, you would recognize that I had already read those sources. If you read more closely, you would probably know that Tylenol is also not an NSAID.
My dude, what are you actually talking about? Call me a skeptic but I must take with a massive grain of salt what you say when you confuse Tylenol as being an NSAID — something that is very easily looked up; so I can’t even tell if you’re confusing studies conducted on Ibuprofen versus Tylenol.
The studies you mention elsewhere:
Yes, if you take FOUR GRAMS within a 24 hour period, that can cause damage. People are dumb and don’t read labels and take in excess.
If you take the recommended dosage of 325mg even every 4 hours as opposed to 6, you’re still under 2 grams in a 24-hour period.
Yes, Tylenol is less effective than Ibuprofen for things like headaches and inflammatory pains because — again — it is NOT a Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID).
Don’t be stupid: Don’t take Tylenol with Alcohol, use it acutely, and follow the instructions and you’ll be fine so long as you discuss with your doctor. Not rocket science.
Obviously the dose makes the poison. You can literally poison yourself by drinking water in excess, too.
Tylenol (acetaminophen) is not an NSAID.
Ibuprofen is.
Ibuprofen particularly can mess up kidneys and stomach lining with chronic use especially. Meanwhile Tylenol tends to be a bit harder on the liver but is otherwise generally considered safer. This based on my hospital stay as a patient and the doctors veering me away from ibuprofen and toward tylenol, and my wife who is an RN.
I very much avoid both to the best of my ability but ibuprofen in particular (even though for me it’s WAY more effective), and the only time I’ve really used either with any temporary regularity was with kidney stone, pneumonia, sepsis (all three at same time, mind you), and omicron covid I think it was. Tylenol is generally considered to be safer than Ibuprofen, unless you have preexisting liver issues.
Do vitamins & minerals count? Beside those my goal is none and so far so good…
11% of Trump supporters who voted for him in the last election disapprove of him, according to this PEW poll. Honestly more than I thought but who knows how easily Republicans could get them back given their megaphone of misinformation diales up during election time.
Eh big doubt, but ask them what the protocol is for discontinuation of sitter following psych eval improvement and pending discharge.
No not quite. For the record both my wife and I work at hospitals.
The article itself reads:
It isn’t clear what Sarah’s doctors planned for her next step in care. Her family and staff who cared for her said she had shown improvements during the last month.
A discontinuation of a sitter following protocols during a 3 month stay is quite normal, and also a give-and-take of trust. All of this is going to come down to patient charting and whether the doctors followed protocol in discontinuing sitter monitoring for an SI patient. Clearly as the article reads there were signs of improvement and at some point that child would have to be discharged.
They also noted they wanted to move the child to an patient psych facility but they were full. At its core, a hospital is not a long-term care facility. To house a child for 3 months on this is beyond the scope of what most Hospitals are capable of adequately handling as acute care facilities, and yes, she should have been transferred to a pediatric psych facility… But again, the system is backlogged.
This is a system strained to its core. What should be emphasized here is 1) The psych unit would’ve had the PHYSICAL measures to prevent her from leaving, independent of anything else. Yes, this was a cut. 2) The entire medical system is under immense stress right now. A true crisis. Staffing shortages are absolutely one key aspect of this among others.
The child in me kind of wishes he had passed on 4/20 Easter, but alas.
That being said, while I’m not religious I appreciate a lot (not all) of what this Pope has done. His Apostolic Exhortation on the Idolatry of Money, and the gross inequality wrought by capitalism is worth a read.
I think about just how many shitty fathers these kids have, most of them in the maga cult that are lapping up the likes of Carlson and Peterson’s lessons on red pilled bullshit and condoning the behavior of their kids (albeit from a notably absent distance).
Crazy that the script for this was written (and actually I think filmed?) pre-pandemic. But we’ve been echoing this message for decades nonetheless.
Planner and propagandist, most likely. The best propaganda is true.
Maybe fighter, if necessary. One of those abridged ASVAB tests for whatever they’re worth (probably not much) suggested Intelligence, Special Forces, and something like Computer Systems. I am a software engineer by education but that’s not my natural affinity insomuch as a means to an end. Always drawn to high level strategy games as well. Always enjoyed squad level tactics in paintball. Whether I’d be worth a damn in combat I hope I never find out. Maybe messenger, runner, scout? I’m a pretty good runner.
I seriously hope it doesn’t come to this shit…
It’s a tool like anything else. Useful for the resistance.
That is, unless you’re offering art services free of charge.
AI is being used against us. Don’t fight with one hand behind your back.
Thanks, I’ll definitely be trying liquid smoke next! I really should start messing around with curry seasoning more. I might also try to find aged cayenne pepper to see if that makes any difference, too.
Good suggestion! I did try that but unfortunately it didn’t seem to be it. Unless I just didn’t put enough in.
I think I stumbled across it somehow with air frying pickled jalapeños alongside the tofu but couldn’t replicate it. Not sure if it had to do with the vinegar or crisped/burnt jalapeño, etc.
So not much different than now except cooler, hell yeah!
