Have any introverted traits. It’s okay for a man to be quiet or get hyper focused on a task. That can be either taken as he’s creepy or the strong/silent type. But if a woman does this then she’s labeled as a cold uncaring bitch. Sometimes I just want to get through a task without taking 20 minutes emotionally propping someone else up as expected.
I feel you. Some of the shit I’ve cleaned up in PowerPoint hell sets my teeth on edge.
Well that is certainly a comfort and gives more credit towards not trying and sentencing teens like they’re adults.
I do wonder if the reasoning behind trying teen shooters as adults is to ensure that their record sticks into adulthood. When you are charged as a juvenile your records are expunged upon turning 18. I certainly would want to make sure that this person could never legally own a gun again.
I once got a call from friends at ten in the morning asking if I could go to my goddaughter’s mother’s Day brunch at the daycare so she wouldn’t be alone. Apparently mom couldn’t get the day off and grandmall was supposed to go but grandmall fell sick that morning. So I was the hail Mary call and I just happened to be on PTO that day. You’re damn right I dropped everything to go have juice and cookies and make bracelets with my girl. Point is that everyone who can and gives a shit is already involved in childcare.
Omg yes! I perform drug testing and I’ve had instances where nurses called CPS before we could give them a confirmation result causing mayhem for all involved. It makes me want to scream whenever I see screening tests used as evidence against people. Any hospital or government agency making those kinds of decisions based on a screen should be sued to high hell. Also fun fact really high levels of Benadryl will cause you to pop positive for PCP on most drug screens. I’ve had to talk a handful of pediatricians down about that over the years too.
This is extremely troubling news. It is really important to find out exactly what the compromise was here. Was the legit clinic using an unsecure platform or do they have a bad actor among them. I did find it interesting that the third party software companies weren’t commenting on the case. It would be absolute mayhem in the healthcare industry if it turns out that the software was easily compromised by bad actors. I understand that a lot of smaller companies “get what they pay for” however HIPAA isn’t something to fuck around with. And I would definitely like to see some criminal charges for the crisis center’s theft of data and patients here. Those snake oil salesmen are a plague on real healthcare.
This was mostly my experience too. I don’t think the Internet itself was as big of a game changer as the advent of smart phones. My day to day didn’t change too much from a pre Internet life to a post Internet life until smart phones came along. Once everyone was able to access the Internet from their pocket is when things really changed.
That’s pretty cool! I’ll have to check this place out.
"Only thing stopping them from sending hired thugs to your house to shake the change out your pockets is the law. "
This is how I feel about ads. Ads are legal psychological warfare with the sole aim of stealing your money.
What a weird point of view in the pic. I can tell this is in the bottom but I can’t figure out which roof this was taken from. Maybe a drone shot?
That’s weird. The link should be to the Wikipedia entry but thanks for making a steam link too!
Maize, a point and click/walking simulator/puzzle game about a secret military project to create sentient corn. Quite possibly the silliest game I’ve ever played.
My first parrot Johnny. I purchased him for my husband as a surprise Valentine’s gift when we were dating/living together. While we had done our research and made sure we were ready to handle the responsibility, we were not financially in a great place at the time. My credit card was almost maxed but I made the impulse decision to call the company to get a limit increase so I could make the purchase. And while it did take me some time to get out of my young and dumb credit card debit I never once regretted getting my little turkey bird. He passed away from old age almost 2 years ago but I still miss him everyday.
I’m sort of with you on atrocious wedding photos however black and white photography is usually done to enhance the dramatic effect of an image. If it’s done well it’s amazing. One of my friends took black and white photos of my wedding without telling us and surprised us later with the photos. They were amazing and a priceless gift.
That was amazing!
My personal fall back to get others to open up in any type of conversation is to start talking about food. Comfort food, junk food, family recipes/traditions; it’s all good because people can’t help but share when it comes to food. I’ve learned so much about different cultures and some damn good recipes just talking about food with everyone.
You remember that episode of the Boondocks where Huey watches junk TV and becomes so exhausted and apathetic that he can no longer think for himself by the end of the episode? That’s why I refuse to even attempt to listen to Trump. Honestly I think that’s how people get suckered in by Trump; he wears down the mind so much that it becomes too much trouble to think.
Oh I love how you played with the light in this photo.
This is the most promising research for diabetes I’ve read in a while.
