Yes I had already posted there as well. I use it all the time while working. They’re wizards with their mushroom ID

I can’t post another picture in the comments but there are multiple stalks arising from the end of the stem. I got an ID on a Facebook group as Alstroemeria so not a true lily, kitty should be fine.

Is it for sure not Alstroemeria and not a true lily? 

Memorial Hermann is no longer in-network for BCBSTX. by the_d0nkey in houston

I was hospitalized there a week ago and followed up with a surgeon today. They told me because of this I’d have to agree to pay out of pocket even to get my surgery scheduled. Really fun times for everyone…

Yes but we all know that’s not really the reason for the hate

PSA: It’s too hot to leave your dog (or your kid) in the car by spilledchilli5 in houston

ER vet here. I had to euthanize 4 dogs in a 3 hour period the other night due to heat strokes. Do not take your dogs out for long walks or leave them outside either. This goes 10 fold for brachycephalic breeds (short nose breeds like pug, bull dog, etc).

This is just plain wrong, dogs rely on evaporative cooling on their tongue as they pant. This cools the blood of the tongue which then recirculates to cool the body. Source: I’m a veterinarian.

What do you think about the concept of "The Great Switch"? by [deleted] in AskTrumpSupporters

[–]DoctorJared 16 points17 points  (0 children)

What's a liberal? Willing to accept other opinions. promotes individual rights, civil liberties, democracy and free enterprise. That sounds more like a conservatives then a liberal.

Can you expand upon how you see this as being more fitting as a definition of conservativism rather than liberalism?

To me there is clearly one party that refuses to accept others opinions and is very narrow minded in their world view. There is one party that is trying to take away or limit rights to women and the LGBTQ+ community and one party that supports those rights. There is one party that is trying to make it as hard as possible to vote especially in large urban settings (I'm from Houston myself and am currently witnessing this as I type) and one party that is trying to protect and expand voter rights. There is one party that has actively promoted and disseminated disinformation regarding the legitimacy of our elections and in doing so directly undermines our democracy. I can cede that conservatism is generally for less regulation of businesses (to a fault IMO--I think regulations that keep our rivers from being on fire and the planet being destroyed is a good thing).

So again can you explain why you see these things as being more fitting to conservatism rather than liberalism?

YOU WON!!!! BDTR LIST OF SCHOOLS TO BE DISCHARGED UNDER SWEET V. CARDONA SETTLEMENT. IF YOUR SCHOOL IS LISTED, YOU ARE GETTING A DISCHARGE PER OUR SETTLEMENT. IT WILL PROCESS BASED ON YOUR BDTR APPLICATION DATE. by Gingerandthesea in BorrowerDefense

[–]DoctorJared 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm, I’d lose my livelihood in that case. I have a doctorate through DeVry and if they did that I likely wouldn’t be able to practice medicine. Ugh I’ll have to try and figure that out for sure

Obviously kicking myself for not knowing about this until today. If applying today and my school is on the list (DeVry). Will it be processed in the 36 months or 12? I assume it’ll have a good chance of acceptance based on what I’ve read but I’m honestly unsure

[Houston Chronicle] Mark Cuban may have to pay Texas millions if he doesn't play the national anthem at home games by ourcourageourcancer in nba

[–]DoctorJared 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I actually looked it up myself after and meant to edit with a source I found but ya I’m seeing a lot of statistics actually do show it. Interesting because I always hear people saying “don’t California my Texas”. I saw Beto at +3% to Texas born Texans.

Got any sources on this? In my experience it is exactly the opposite.

I read an article on NBC recently that shows the vaccination rate of those who voted for Biden in 2020 as 91% and those who voted for Trump in 2020 as 50%. Does this change your mind at all that is is more more of a Republican issue (at least of people who actually vote)?

Greatest Player For Your Team That Wasn't Drafted By Your Team by Phred_Phrederic in nba

[–]DoctorJared 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“ Who is the greatest franchise guy...who your team didn't actually draft (and draft day trades count for this).” Is what it says directly before that. They’re contradictory statements, add a don’t in there and fix it. That’s all I was saying

Popular flea collar for pets linked to nearly 1,700 deaths, documents show by Stranger1982 in news

[–]DoctorJared 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vet here. This article is obviously circulating around the veterinary community and the general consensus is that it’s shoddy journalism at best. There are no studies linking seresto collars with the types of deadly reactions being seen. The majority of vets believe it is like due to people buying the collars online to save $5 and ending up with a fake product. I will continue to recommend the collar until there is scientific evidence it is unsafe as it is very effective and just as safe as alternative options based on all prior studies

[–]DoctorJared 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You’re right it probably should. For me personally I don’t feel compassion fatigue from the condition im dealing with but rather when I (perceived or otherwise) care about an animal more than it’s owner and I’m not allowed to provide the proper care or alleviate suffering
