@BudLightSadness Aliens are going to come visit and be like “Oh, Insee you figured out solar, but why are they on the ground and not in orbit? That’s wasteful and stupid.”

What happened to Jordan Peterson? Well, he was targeted by a multi-billion dollar whole of government effort to destroy him as a human being because he offered hope and guidance to young men.

He faced it alone.

And they succeeded, they destroyed him. Just look at him.

But..

They couldn't destroy the memory of a man who stood alone against tremendous evil. They couldn't cleanse that from the world, try as they might.

They could break the man, but not the hope he created. Hope in those men who, often for the first time, heard someone speak to them with compassion, love even. Love in the way a father feels, or perhaps more accurately a fatherly mentor, one who offers guidance and confidence and shares because that is his duty to the next generation.

The opposition knew how dangerous he was, how dangerous his message was, so they brought everything they possibly could against him.

And look, heroes die every day. You people are, by your very nature, so very frail.. but that is what it is about your courage that makes the angels stand in awe and wonder.

Peterson knew. We all knew. He knew they would come for him with a vengeance. He knew, in the end, methodically, they would break him down.

Yet fragile and imperfect, a delicate man with a delicate voice, sacrificing everything, he stepped into the arena anyway. Such is the nature of Virtue.

@RobProvince @aurora_g96 Ah, the number of times i was holding both a beer and a Long Island at the same time.

Medical Tuesday.

It's a massive issue, bigger than most realize and it is costing all of us. You think it's about compassion but at some point "enough - is - enough".

I keep getting DMs from nurses, doctors, and hospital staff across the country. I finally decided we will post on it not because we lack compassion but because so few realize this is going on.

I struggle as many would with the reality of this.

These DM's from literally every state describe the exact same nightmare:

Undocumented patients in ICU or psych wards for months, unable to be discharged or transferred because their home countries won’t take them back and they have no insurance or resources. Long-term elder care cases. Repeated expensive admissions for preventable conditions.

All of it ultimately paid for by American taxpayers, insured patients through cost-shifting, or the hospital eating the losses until it threatens their viability.

Hospitals are legally stuck under EMTALA for emergencies, but when patients stabilize into long-term or chronic care with no payer and no repatriation option, the system breaks.

Staff are burned out. Nobody signed up for this.

American patients wait longer. Budgets get crushed.
Meanwhile their home countries claim they provide “free healthcare” - yet somehow refuse to accept their own citizens back for continued treatment.

This is not sustainable.

We are subsidizing unlimited emergency and long-term care for people who entered illegally while our own citizens face gaps, long waits, and higher premiums. The same politicians who expand these burdens never seem to address the root cause or demand accountability from the sending nations.

American hospitals and American patients are not an infinite global safety net.

Comment below if you work in healthcare and have seen this strain firsthand and can speak on this without being called out. Many have asked me too but afraid they would suffer consequences for speaking up.

Bookmark if you see the pattern. Quote or repost your observation. Comment below if you work in healthcare and have seen this strain firsthand.

This is a direct result of open-border policy meeting unfunded mandates. The frontline workers are the ones living with the consequences every shift.

@LuckyMcGee Looks awesome! I know how much of a pain all that can be.

@gaersstapa @MrNChance No. No graves. No markers. No return to the ground.

@pnwguerrilla I’m over 50, i’m mostly training cardio and flexibility at this point.

@LuceyLou587445 @sourpatchlyds @reddit_lies They’d bottom out pretty quickly. Maybe the Subarus would make it?

@fivegeedubya @braxton_mccoy I needed next weekend to be low 70s, it’s hitting 80s. Hopefully I’ll get far enough on this roof before it hits 90s.

@cailleach_feasa I wish we could still see who we know who was still following after we block them.

[Erik the Hun @evilcyber]

@klara_sjo @WadeFlavor Yeah.. Don’t do that. Between treated wood, and random chemical drippings, I wouldn’t be anywhere close to downwind of burning pallets, let alone sit my ass down on them.
I say that as someone with a pretty decent amount in active use.

@pmarca I think I still have the first year in hardcopy.
ISTR there was an ad for Rotor t-shirts with the tag line "eco-hostile". (Was also in Mondo 2000.)

@LCNM_Patriot I don't think people realize how fast fires can move, or how hot they can get.
