I just replied to another comment saying this. It's trivial and I ask others to do it. I was thinking it would be easy to build this into grammar check software - prompt the user to ask if the document is gender specific, and if not suggest they/them.
Ha, I was still under when the catheter went in but the day it came out I had to go but could not and it drove me crazy. After a few hours nature took it's course, at it tends to do. What a relief.
I know someone who was put under like that after a surgical mishap and they definitely tried to wrestle a nurse and tear the vent out. Totally understandable and they said they expect it.
Thank you, I had it before and pulled through ok, I started feeling better after an epic nap today.
Must have been terrifying for you while your wife was ill.
A few months before anyone even heard of COVID a friend of ours who was a runner and what not was in the ICU with double pneumonia for a long time and they had no idea at all what it was. We all assume it was COVID now but no one said it was (it's not like they could have tested her for it). Pretty wild.
At some point Meadows will get a death threat from some idiot that explicitly links it to Trump's remarks. The question is if that is brought forward or kept under wraps. If they arrest that person and charge them they would probably happily yell "I did what Trump said to do and I'd do it again" in court. That might lead to consequences for Trump but it's a lot to chain together and nothing moves quickly here.
Could not agree more. I tested high as a kid but never took it to heart. A quick trip to the library (long time ago) showed how deeply flawed they are.
I am objectively quicker at some things than many people but I'm often humbled as soon as I step outside the areas I have specific knowledge in.
I was tested as a kid with a 140 IQ but did my best to get that down to average levels with pot as a teenager. Every report card "... has a lot of potential if they applied themself."
Sadly, I didn't cure cancer. I got really into cooking and then computers, slowly realizing that while I might be smart on those tests, I am not really emotionally intelligent or particularly good at getting my crap together to make things happen.
Life kind of carried me along. I did lots of cool stuff but made major life decisions on a whim.
Everything changed when I met my wife (we weren't married before I met her, that happened later) and combined my abilities with hers. I finally feel like I have a place in the world and know what I'm going to be doing a week, month, or year from now with some certainty. Feels good.
This just got me and I needed a good laugh so thank you.
Going on my seventht day of COVID, getting worse, and my scumbag immune system has decided this isn't nearly as interesting as the large intestine and everything south of it that it took a few years back.
How about a history of violent behaviour? It's possible for community members and family plus professionals to supply the court with affidavits if the person was not previously convicted of violent offenses.
That sounds terrible. Glad you made it through but I would think you relive that from time to time.
I have a screwed up neck so when I had a major surgery they had to intubate me (tube down the throat) while I was awake and immobilized (arms strapped down at my sides etc) for surgery. For a long time it would come back to me every time I started to fall asleep. I'm ok now but that PTSD is nothing to mess with. I don't know if I could do it again.
Losing that constant voice that everything is about to come crashing down is hard. For one thing, you think about how much time you wasted not doing things because they might not work out.
Safe to say that experience costing you 20 grand would not have lowered your stress.
