just another cog in the broken machine.
RN, work in IT, fueled by anxiety, frustration and caffeine.

If you can text "call me" you can also text what it is you need. It's a form of control to get me on the phone and hold me there.

(There are times when a call is right, so call.)

@LegionofSand 90 is about the sweet spot. Too often it feels like the extra 60 minutes are extra just to pad the running time. Like using 12.5 font and big margins to make a paper longer .

"this looks (more) perfect" needs to die, it's distorting everything and builds a culture of fake perfection, which of course doesn't exist. the flaws are where the beauty is

Mooch crossed the rainbow bridge today. His human died this year and he got to live with our amazing niece who loved the heck out of him. And he loved her back. RIP buddy.

Love how it's not about the bill per se, but more about making Pres. Biden look bad. Small, petty minded individual.

President-elect Trump says he opposes a bill to provide short-term funding for the government, throwing a wrench in House Speaker Johnson’s plans with just days to go before a potential shutdown. https://t.co/gXAwqnNxQQ

There's a weird truth there. Just can't put my finger on it, just like I never got measles either. Hmmm....

During COVID, hospitalization rates were 10.5x higher in people who did not get the COVID vaccine: https://t.co/C69DMvYanO

That’s a whole lot of suffering.

So utterly distracted due to stress (real estate with asshole sellers), waiting for the water to warm up in the sink and it doesn't. Run it longer. Ice cold. Freak out. Run outside, check the tank, pilot's lit.
Come back and look at the faucet - turned to cold. #smh

So there's a list...

@RookieCityCop @arkangel99 "Wtf were people doing in the 80s that led them to believe that bullshit?"

Cocaine. Lots of cocaine. Like Tony Montana amounts.
(But really, folks are just temporarily inconvenienced millionaires and they're due soon so best not mess it up! Also see deluded, stupid.)

@jeremykauffman Um, no. By keeping it federal it keeps it open for use by all. Privatise it and it only benefits the select few (again).

"Where are all the stupid people from?
And how'd they get to be so dumb?
Bred on purple mountain range
Feed amber waves of grains
To lesser human beings, zero feelings
Blame it on"
The Decline, NOFX

Written 25+ years ago, yet never more true. Especially today.

Helping elder parents is a humbling experience. I'm lucky that I get to, but it's a hard, hard thing.

When flying, I never get the appeal of boarding early, especially if you have an assigned seat. Going to be in a tube with you for hours, why would I want to extend it?

[Member, Turd Polishers Local 928 @Wanderer_RN]

My rural community has 1 neurologist so I might get an appointment in 2025. Instead I get to drive 7-8 hours {round trip} to do something that could be done via telemedicine. This is a maintenance visit, just a follow-up. Can someone make this make sense?

@wikileaks The playbook doesn't really change. Right out of Tales of an Economic Hitman.

Y'know, if you don't update certificates before they expire, shit stops working.

@LakotaMan1 I would be honored to sit with you. In spirit, as the flesh is weak.

[Member, Turd Polishers Local 928 @Wanderer_RN]

18 years ago we welcomed our daughter to this world and 10 days later we said goodbye.
It still hurts.
Every goddamn day.
Worse on her birthday.
Hug your kids folks, you don't know how lucky you are!

OK mass media, one down, one to go.

Proof that the moneyed elites run the show. This is about more than suitability, this is the oligarchy flexing their muscles. Our country has been sold out to the highest bidder(s), the proof is all around yet no one wants to say it.
