I was curious about rent in San Diego while vacationing there recently and I ended up finding something sorta similar to what you're describing. 98 sqft, furnished with shared bathrooms and showers, no mention of a kitchen. At 650 a month it was the most affordable thing I found.

This is a modern German prison cell.

 

Look at that hippo go

Was told over and over again that AI is so good at coding that it was replacing people already so when I tried to get it to write an algorithm for the most efficient way to smith in terrafirmacraft, it gave me this bullshit.

I never truly appreciated how close I got to killing my self horribly as a dumbass middle school kid. I saw so much media on people stealing drugs from the bathroom that I wanted to try it. We only really had Tylenol Extra Strength, and other simple OTC meds. Not deterred, I went and downed probably 8-10 of the 500mg pills and stopped because I couldn't swallow any more. Got super tired and fell asleep on the couch for a few hours. Can't imagine if I had something like this that also had alcohol in it that I wouldn't have tried to chug it instead. Kids are dumb and they'll do shit nobody expects and tell nobody about it for fear of consequence.

I've considered trying to leave the US and I've looked into the process, but the limiting factor for me is leaving behind family.

I remember being obsessed with the show when I was in my late teens. On one hand they convinced me in a single episode that pot should be legal and that lawns are a scourge on the world. The dolphin episode was an experience. But the anti environmental ones did put some brainworms in that took some work to get out. Doesn't help that they were somewhat right in that recycling is sold as a cure when in reality a lot of recycling just doesn't work as advertised.

I mean Optum is a pretty unsecret thing in nursing homes. I think we've been through like 12 nurse practitioners over the last year and a half I've been working at a nursing home. We're told that if they're an Optum patient they need to be managed by them, but a solid amount of the time we're just going to the primary provider because they're nowhere to be seen because their entire local network is a shitshow. I also know they seem really averse to starting hospice or even having that conversation. I know they're super big about preventing hospitalization and treating in place, but I feel like if I just outright disagreed with a call made I could just speak to the primary provider or if I'm really concerned, override the NP, especially if they're not present in the building.

The examples they give of stroke like symptoms, if I'm on the unit and they clearly are having a stroke, I've already called 911 before I'm calling the provider to ask for orders. Unless they have a history of TIA I'd assume stroke and deal with the back and forth.

In the end there is that little nag from Optum asking you to call before a hospitalization, but there's also a level of nursing judgement that needs to exist with that thought towards patient health rather than an insurance company's nagging.

You can also use the fecal sludge as fertilizer or just dump it on the ground creating a health risk for your colonists or maybe just some super fucked prisoner torture system.

I've fallen and I can't get up

I always interpreted it as literally the exact same shit with a different coat of paint, the only differences between them literally are just the aesthetics.

 

The commentary afterwards just sorta highlights a difference in culture. Nobody in the west gives a shit about critical infrastructure workers braving the elements to speak about them so reverently.

This show is drawn from one of our grassroots electric workers. He travels far and wide, regardless of hardships and severe cold, bringing light and warmth to thousands of families
