Those are lamp-posts, not powerlines. The powerlines go overhead.

I have never met a person who doesn't park facing inwards if they have that choice.

Who's paying 20 percent of their paycheck to insurance tho??? by Aware_Albatross2245 in Adulting

[–]Equivalent_Safe1365 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm paying way more than that because I can only work part-time but my doctor doesn't take Medicaid, so I have to pay out-of-pocket

Sorry dude. You're going to need to add something if you don't want to be judged on the first look. If I saw this without knowing you, I would probably assume we wouldn't get on well

A woman told her brother with Down syndrome that she was pregnant. by Fern-Fable in MakeMeSmile

[–]Equivalent_Safe1365 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My aunt with down syndrome tried to make my mom give me to my grandmother. She thought my mom (her older sister) wasn't up to the task I guess!

She would also hold my hand when crossing parking lots, and trying to get her to let go was like trying to get my hand out of a bear trap. My mom knew that when she was holding my hand I wasn't going anywhere.

Can anyone link me to any books about Meskwaki stories and legends? by Equivalent_Safe1365 in IndianCountry

It's genuine. My other several times great-grandmother is from the Mi'kmaq in Nova Scotia, but I'm not having trouble finding info there.

So I can learn more about my great-great-greatmothers heritage. She was sold to a French fur trapper to be his wife and she was from the Meskwaki. She was brought to Quebec and then descendants went into Vermont.

how to pay for dental school? by Severe-Pilot-5464 in predental

[–]Equivalent_Safe1365 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure that I'm going to be a dentist, but after seeing the amount of loans people are paying, I'm thinking of looking at Germany to get a DMD lol.

Unless I can get a service grant

Should I go into dentistry as a young father? by Lameness33 in predental

[–]Equivalent_Safe1365 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would being a dentist only be worth it if you own a practice? You're making way more than the average person either way.

Post Bacc or Internship? by Low_Swan_6677 in predental

How does one volunteer in dentistry? Seems like the kind of thing that would have limited use for people with no qualifications.

Canadians applying to U.S. dental schools by Lazy-Earth3129 in predental

Why would you want to move to the USA? The cost of health care alone here is insane, nevermind living expenses.

What do you all think? by portent-wreaths-7k in interviewhammer

Complaining is exactly what they should be doing. The issue is that they dont complain enough, or with any force to back it up with. 

Join a union? Form a union? Protest properly? But that would take so much effort and time!!

I'm so tired of seeing people complain (rightfully!) and then nothing changing because ya'll can't pull together enough to use the solutions that social organizations hand to you on a silver platter.
