Me being a nurse makes me glad I’m bad with regular smells lol

Those people also frustrate the hell out of my aunt with actual celiac disease. She’s basically had to stop eating in restaurants because there’s no real way for her to differentiate between “gluten-free” and “no, no really, we cooked all of this in a completely separate area of the kitchen with dedicated utensils that never come into contact with anything from the other side of the kitchen”

She has a couple of places she can trust, but just trying out new places for funsies is not a thing she could ever do.

One must imagine Sisyphus happy and all that.

Hey fam, as a person with ME/CFS who works in healthcare, just wanted to say that I appreciate you.

I just wanna say that I appreciate the hell out of you.

Pharma companies are basing pricing for these one-time-in-a-life-dose drugs on supply and demand principles. There will never be high demand for these drugs because the conditions are so rare. And only needing to be dosed once for a complete lifetime cure means that there is no recurrent payment happening the way you would have with a drug that needed to be dosed repeatedly over a lifetime.

You’ll hear all the usual excuses about “muh R&D costs 😭😭” but the truth is they’re pricing it this way because they can. Because somewhere in the bible of capitalism, this is the way things work.

(R&D costs are just an excuse for greed: https://www.treatmentactiongroup.org/resources/tagline/tagline-fall-2018/pharma-lies-people-die-myth-busting-fact-sheet-on-medicine-development-and-pricing/)

I was gonna say, actually thinking about pocketing the excess next time I pull some from the Omnicell to see if this works lol

It’s illegal to ask you not to discuss wages in the United States. Violation of federal labor law.

Star Trek. It’s a whole plotline with O’Brien

OP is in Denmark, so no recluse spiders there lol.

Ok this is actually adorable though

Thanks

And mine won’t let me upload even using the “upload image” button on desktop site. I’m getting some error “Unexpected token…DOCTYPE…is not valid JSON.” I’m trying to upload a JPG taken on a Pixel 5, so idk.

But @tehcooles@programming.dev pics are great! I couldn’t capture the diamond ring effect and the more subtle parts of the corona on my Pixel 5.

I got a great picture of totality and I can’t post it with the damn Boost app lol. I’ll have to try once I get back to my laptop

LITERALLY HAPPENING

Better in 50 years than never

“Men are afraid women will laugh at them. Women are afraid men will kill them.”

There’s a reason Margaret Atwood was the person who pointed this out.

I’m on book 8, and if you can believe it gets even better. I’m a little speechless about it.

I mean, yes. People are stupid. That’s why we have safety regulations. This court case is about a lack of safety regulations.

“Person watches X creative and clearly fictional content” is not analogous in any way to “person watches X video essay crafted to look like a documentary, but actually just full of lies and propaganda”

Don’t be ridiculous
