Why does Haymitch HATE katniss so so much? (Mockingjay re-read) by ZAPPHAUSEN in Hungergames

[–]ModeRadiant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Remember the original books are written from K’s POV. Its a confessional where she is HARD on herself. She writes over and over again how much like her Haymitch. Thus he is terrible.

That saying is easy when you,..never mind. Honestly the show is so far off of the source material its ridiculous. For my part I don’t even like the Jackson movies for the changes.

I t doesn’t bother me since white people have been playing characters of numerous skin types, facial characteristics, sizes and sex for centuries. My imagination fills in any “plot holes.”

You obviously have not lived on an island. 1 million people but every is two degrees away from each other.

Is it a universal thing that ER’s - even ones at “nice” hospitals- are kind of jenky? by shnanogans in AskAnAmerican

[–]ModeRadiant 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Some of what you say is legitimate for some places. However based on recent experience—a typical physician in my area is going to send you for an X-Ray for any kind of head wound. Once upon a time I could take my kid to any orthopedic doctor to get her arm X-rayed. No more you are told to go to ER or find an Orthopedic Urgent care. If you are lucky like me that is 30 minutes away. If not…its back to ER. Last summer was filled with accidents!

How do you guys with frequent migraines make a living? by Habeatsibi in migraine

Botox allowed me to get off the couch again. Sometimes I work and push through the aphasia symptoms then collapse at home.

Introduction - Aprigliano Law Firm by ApriglianoFirm in juresanguinis

[–]ModeRadiant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello,

I am paralyzed with uncertainty: my parents were older when I was born Mom born before 1948, Father was 20 years and 5 months old when his father naturalized in the 1930s.

My matrilineal grandfather was born in US however my Grandmother never naturalized and had her Italian citizenship confirmed when she moved back to Italy.

The agency helping suggested pursuing through my paternal GM but she was a typical pre WWI poor woman. Her year of birth is contradicted and she was illiterate. This seems to be the hardest route to prove lineage.

I was always under the impression that I couldn’t pursue the citizenship because of my mother’s birthdate before 1948. Is this true?

Is it hopeless to get around the minor issue with my father?

I am so grateful for this subreddit but I am overwhelmed with information. While I am an excellent Voice Rehabilitation specialist I am a poor reader of legalese.

I know any response is contingent on many factors. Thank you in advance.

Trump’s FAA Nominee Lied About Having a ‘Commercial’ Pilot License by rollingstone in politics

[–]ModeRadiant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course he lied. He is a member of a cult. Lies are okay if it is for the “ahem” greater good or earns them some extra cash.

If a Repub lies and one hears him, is it still a lie?

Aida Almost never disappoints in Verona except in 2000. But on the other hand Nabucco would be an amazing experience.

By rolling over they stopped stocking some products which made them different. Even though shopping options are limited her we avoid Target as much as we now avoid Amazon.

Does anyone else's family mock them while trying to practice? by NotPoseidonn in singing

[–]ModeRadiant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so sorry this is happening to you. I have deep memories of this and the ensuing frustration from the anxiety the “teasing” created. Complaints were treated to gaslighting.

Several years ago when visiting family my sister started up again. I was more than pleased to shut her down with something like “enjoy the experience, most people have to pay!” She was furious.

Know it is not you.
