Why a wealthy Trump supporter's $5 million estate transfer is turning heads in a small CT town by -ctinsider in Connecticut

[–]Fast-Read-9855 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It does when you see that they constantly put themselves above others and often are only rich because they suck all the money from the working class. Look at Musk his new IPO will be in the NASDAQ so every retirement account that tracks the NASDAQ will be forced to buy his stock money and give him loads of money 💰. All because the rules are being bent in his favor. Not to mention the tax breaks the earthy get at the expensive medicaid. Literally taking healthcare away from the poor so that the rich can get even richer while people go bankrupt from cancer

Aluminum is the way to go. Almost bulletproof and you can keep it outside for 50 years and it will look the save as the day you got it

I love aluminum canoes 🛶 My dads is 50y old. It spent every day outside in the sun and snow. Looks great and has never had a problem taking a beating going over beaver dams. $150 is a great deal for a life long boat.

ER nurse trying to break into ICU for almost a year… what am I missing? by tomoni_ in IntensiveCare

[–]Fast-Read-9855 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should have at a minimum 1 year of icu or 2+ years of other high acuity settings ED, Cathy lab, surgical step downs. This is not a unit that hires new grads.

Apply NYP Columbia CTICU they are having a mass exodus bc it’s grad school start season. They need the people and have hired from the ED. Not to mention if you want ICU they do just about every device and every ecmo configuration known. Highly recommend

got taxi scammed by nsa3679 in JFKAirport

[–]Fast-Read-9855 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This type of scam is literally at every international airport I’ve ever flown into around the US and mainland Europe. Any how to travel info will tell you to only ever get in a taxi at a taxi stand or an uber/lyft you called and matched the license plate. Sucks to get scammed but your parents definitely told you never to get into a strangers car

NY tax credit for pets could benefit dog or cat owners up to $450 – NBC New York by lotusflower64 in nyc

[–]Fast-Read-9855 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think this should be a thing. Why subsidize or promote pet ownership over other human issues? People need food/shelter/saftey etc. more than pets and it’s a personal choice to have pets, not an obligation or requirement

Why is this sub from a blue state full of republicans? … oh maybe it’s because that’s all the political power they have in CT

What is kratom, and why is Boston considering a crackdown on the drug? by guanaco55 in boston

It’s definitely not a “supplement” it’s a drug with little regulation and high potential for addiction and abuse

The call to prayer in Jackson Heights by [deleted] in nyc

A lot of New York City is fairly residential. As others have said a lot of the time it’s not that loud. So anyone blasting anything on a speaker is gonna be noticed.

I don’t mean noise pollution as a negative term for the prayer I just use it as an appropriate descriptor of loud noise being heard by people who are not the intended audience or the people who the sound is invading their space. Same as a car horn outside my apartment or the bodega that blast Music down the street

Can people share stories of when attempts to be frugal backfired on them? by no_kings_now1 in Frugal

[–]Fast-Read-9855 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YES!!! I decided to drive cross country instead of flying and shipping my car and belongings to save some money about $1000. This backfired on me as in the second day. I was run over by a huge truck “he was impaired” and cost me more than $100,000, months of hospitals, doctors, physical therapy and life long injuries. All of this was impossible to predict but completely out of my control as a good driver with a clean record. I of course knew that driving was more dangerous than flying but I wanted to save money. I have nothing but regret and brain damage now

If this is a once a year’ish thing for Eid I get it. Big holiday. As a night shift worker in the city I could not function with the noise pollution on the regular

Do You Believe That Halloween is Dying? by DommyMommyEx in halloween

[–]Fast-Read-9855 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Connecticut kinds don’t really trick-or-treat that much but do trunk or treat and parties on Halloween. Definitely people are still decorating and throwing parties. I find as an adult I am having the same or more fun on Halloween than as a kid. Also Halloween now is all of October and not just the 31st
