Trump must mend the breach or resign. Actually, Trump should just resign.

One of those posts I want people to see, but hitting a heart on it is very difficult.

They'd never be able to do this without pawns. Those people are just so sure it won't be them.

For people who want to avoid Amazon, Lowe's has them for about $6 in my area.
Searches in other stores could help us find better places if we must spend money.

Biden wasn't "passed over." He had lost a son and didn't want to run.
Dems have absolutely been too passive and far too willing to constantly give ground (which includes Obama in bold). Biden didn't shore up all the things Trump broke. He just pretended it was all still there.

FFX is one of my favs! Don't get too bogged down in the extras, but also, the extras are fun and blirzball on the vita when away from the PS is fun. 😁

Psst: it IS an entitlement. Republicans have just convinced America that means something dirty and wrong.
It means you earned it and deserve it.

Yeah, but hospitals definitely have those people in spades.

In a recent study, McMaster University researchers found that zinc plays a vital role in how some of the world's most dangerous bacteria resist antibiotics.
The study has been published in Nature Microbiology. YES, it is PEER-REVIEWED.

I used TT as a pick me up mostly. Had a feed full of adorable animals w occasional video game stuff. Political stuff was mostly during the election or a few vids here and there. I'll really miss all the animals vids. 😮💨

I don't like Dark Souls or feel drawn to any of them either. But I love ER, BB and Demons Souls. :)
Dark Souls lacks the feeling in those games and that's the only way I can describe it.

Ok but have you played Demons Souls, Bloodbourne, or Elden Ring?

Ah, now nobody who hasn't had it could possibly understand. 😂 They really got you wrapped up good with the "logic."
Quickly "but, over there" -- both systems have COIs.
Still, I'd take them over KP's 7 days of antibiotics & be sure to live in states with external review laws.

Dude, your health care isn't what you think it is. I just hope you don't learn the truth in a way that really hurts you. Why would you talk to mon-Kaiser doctors and health care professionals? Bc you aren't brain washed and seek outside info. Except, you are. Clearly.
comment in response to
post
You *really* need to talk to medical professionals not in that Kaiser system. And listen, FFS, instead of telling them they don't understand something pretty easy to understand. 😂
comment in response to
post
YOU don't understand an integrated model. If KP tells your Dr a course if antibiotics is 7 days, your doctor orders antibiotics for 7 days.KP doesn't pay for more, your Dr knows that, & your Dr won't be a KP Dr getting a room full of patients from KP if he keeps trying to order 10 days.

You can claim it's not a conflict all you like, but it doesn't change the fact it's an obvious conflict of interest -- and more than one. I've seen and heard from plenty of people in the medical system belaboring the results. You should talk to more professionals outside KP.
comment in response to
post
I very much understand what it is. You refuse to acknowledge how much conflict of interest there is for patients in a system that determines access at _every_ level of healthcare when its financial interest is opposed to the chronic patient's length of life.
comment in response to
post
It's a system chock full of conflicts of interest. The doctors' employment depends upon keeping Kaiser happy. Kaiser protects itself, which includes its practitioners. Patients are just revenue stream. The business side runs the medical side.

about isn't pragmatic either. Many times the ire is because of how much people have studied and seen, other times because of how many repercussions have touched them or people they care about. And perhaps once you've fully studied govts, you'll see that yourself.
comment in response to
post
So if people are hating a government, asking what that government has done to cause the ire is a pragmatic approach, more so than assuming some neutrality and good intentions of government. Governments are power structures prone to corruption. Assuming others haven't studied govts they feel strongly
comment in response to
post
Hating a government can absolutely be based on research and going in with your "pragmatic point of view to better judge." Quite a few governments have earned the ire of people around the world. Pretending it's automatically based on less than real outcomes is not pragmatic of you.

That would only mean accepting some governments, not preclude hating any governments.

Hating the govt, yes, that's ok. Hating the people who are stuck with it is not ok. The people are just people like all the others on the planet.

Apparently certain people have not learned yet that there's only so much stress our medical system can take (and it's decreasing, not increasing). And even though a strain of flu may be extinct by our actions, they learned nothing. www.npr.org/2024/10/18/n...

No, expansion on Earth is not acceptable. You want land, go to space. Go to space, and stay there.

Kaiser already controls the doctors in its plan, and how they treat patients. It's a much more painful 7% than it appears.

Kaiser is a mislead. They already control the doctors and how they treat patients, so 7% denial is more painful than it appears.

Oh, it's hilarious you think kids won't be trans just bc you elected Trump. You don't stop people from being who they are, and you never can or will, no matter how much you hate. I'm not the one w "his meat" in the mouth. You're looking in the mirror again.

There are things that deserve it, but those people are rarely the ones who get it anyway. And having it leaves it open to abuse and to the wrong people getting it.

The judge probably doesn't meet The Heritage Foundation's requirements. So she's actually for We the People.
[ Sarcastic "Oh no! That's terrible!" sound insert here]
I really enjoy assuming "she" here. That must be such a nice way to live life. Guess that's why you fight for it.

Some people can't really imagine or envision anything just by description.
I have the opposite issue. I can't really read comics. I've tried. But stories only in pictures with a few words make me unable to follow a story. It's different skills I've never developed (or just can't develop.)

It's my understanding that there's a black hole in the middle of all galaxies, and what's even more fascinating, the size of the hole corresponds to the size of the galaxy spinning around it.

Society lacks the therapists needed; free college tuition for positions needed in the country would go a long way to filling it, and help other societal problems, but wouldn't give these men the impetus to seek therapy. //2

So they need to actively help themselves? I agree. Saying they "need help" implies someone else is doing the helping. And other people cannot do the work they need to do for them. /1

"men need help" -- help from whom?

Ah, well, that must mean the books about it were banned./s 😂
How you think being awake and aware is an insult, I do not know. But go do your wiki research instead of reading the books and articles that aren't banned, even though they're usually listed right there in the references section.

So ... books about it have NOT been banned?

So... They *only* want to ban history books that make "white people look bad"? And you think that makes it ok to ban those books?
