Dear @Delta, I just assisted in a medical emergency in the air. Your medical kits need a glucometer, epi pen, and automatic blood pressure cuffs- it’s impossible to hear with a disposable stethoscope in the air. Please improve this for passenger safety!
When I’m reading articles, “labor shortage” stands out to me the way “officer-involved shooting” used to. It’s not a labor shortage and we’d do well to pay attention to journalists who pretend it’s a neutral term.
If you're gonna do it, DO IT. If you're gonna do it, DO IT. If you're gonna do it, DO IT. If you're gonna do it, DO IT. If you're gonna do it, DO IT. If you're gonna do it, DO IT. If you're gonna do it, DO IT. If you're gonna do it, DO IT. If you're gonna do it, DO IT.
Think about this, the same racists who worship confederates and called Colin Kaepernick a traitor for taking a knee to bring awareness to police brutality are trying to stop all schools from teaching about slavery. This is how white supremacy works.
Gotta open yourself up to the possibility of humiliation to let love in. Gotta open yourself up the possibility of losing in order to get the win. Gotta give your ALL to get the most out of any situation. Stop holding back to protect your ego.
Juneteenth is literally a day that commemorates the fact that Black folks were still enslaved 2 years AFTER slavery had officially ended. You cannot make Juneteenth a federal holiday without paying reparations.
@AstroStrati @alizakelly Yes...but also be prepared that the things they're fine with in the abstract their fifties and sixties aren't necessarily things they'll be okay with when the time truly comes for assisted living or in-home care.
In late stage capitalism, human life is valued in productivity. Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate the hustle as much as the next Capricorn Rising, but the truth is that “the grind” is literally a scam. You shouldn’t have to choose work over health to ensure a good quality of life.
Because, at the end of the day, no matter how much “abundance” you manifest, society will eventually turn it nose up at you. You’ll be
“smelly,” “wrinkly,” “senile.” You’ll be unappreciated, unsupported, and — no longer productive — deemed a burden. This is the harsh reality.
The fact that the previous administration’s approach to the pandemic was “Goodbye To Grandparents” should be highly concerning.
That wasn’t a Tr-mp issue. That’s a societal issue.
One day, if you’re lucky enough to reach old age, you’ll be the one receiving that death sentence.
The scam of capitalism is that you work your ass off making money for a corrupt corporation, “grateful” for lackluster benefits and a nominal 401K — only to discover that we live in a society that has zero regard for senior citizens. Welcome to retirement.
Hi, I’m a 31-year old who is the power of attorney for my 91-year old grandmother.
Many millennials haven’t yet navigated geriatric care in the United States, so heads up: it’s a fucking disaster. Start paying attention now, before you’re too old to have a voice.
