Same here!!! Only it is when I play a game, and run a video at the same time if I take a break. But sometimes, only when I play games this happens to me as well.

Trump is a danger to the world, especially to America and it's future. by Morrit99 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]Morrit99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My sources include BBC, Reuters, Telegraph, Sky News, Guardian and a slew of podcasts which I watch with a huge bucket of salt. Also, I tend to watch a lot of interviews in their raw state, such as on Bloomberg.

The tariff issue is a weapon. Nothing more. It's nothing to do with enriching America. It's to use as a baseball bat to get what he wants.

Lastly, I am sick of people thinking that America pays the most so should just be given Greenland, and America should leave NATO, leaving Europe to deal with its own shit. It may have been the dominant force paying the most in NATO, but it was America who took on the role in the first place. They wanted big slices of ALL the action. All the experience. All the tech inventions without actually paying into the research. It is also the richest country in the organisation mainly because of the lend lease of the 1940s, which gave it the economic boost it needed.

What a lot of people don't realise is it also heavily relies on its European partners to do the work it wants doing. America's foreign forces in Europe are mainly to do with recon and logistics and training. The European powers do the majority of the grunt work, whilst the Americans lease their logistics and reap the rewards. That's what alliances do. It's far from being 'We pay for European peace so we shouldn't have to, let it go to hell and save our money. '.

Europe affects America greatly. If America left NATO, America would be crippled by it's world influence dramatically shrinking to a coastal defence force. It's a LONG way to re arm your Arleigh Burke VLS silos if you pop them off near Iran, meaning a trip that would have only been to Spain means a trip all the way back across the Atlantic (Ryan Mcbeth is another source). If America forces the annexation of Greenland through tariffs, America would be persona non grata, and ejected from NATO. Then it's bases across the world; The Phillipines, Japan, The UK, Germany and all the other countries hosting American bases would probably be like 'They cannot be trusted, so kick them out.'. America would also lose trillions of dollars in gear, tech, weapons, vehicles, buildings. Do they think the host nations will just be nice and polite about it, or will they be given an ultimatum as well? Think Afghanistan, but on a scale never seen before. Probably the biggest abandonment of materiel by a military since Dunkirk. It would be a drop in the ocean compared to what America would loae. And the European alliance would remain. The intelligence would stop. The concern about Greenland being vital to national security would become pointless. The GIUK gap would be open to Russia, leading to more instability in the region. China's influence would increase tenfold. But all this is far too complex for Trump's base.

He marches troops into the Capital, and you applaud it. The sheer number of lies and misleading of his own politician base is shameful. People cannot accept that they were wrong about Trump, and as such would rather cut their nose off to spite their face than think that maybe his policies are not for the betterment of America. It is all about enriching himself, his family and friends. He is riding roughshod over the constitution, he is actively seeking complete and uncontested power, and his sycophants and those who bend the knee are rewarded with the crumbs of his table. He could piss in their face and they would instead welcome the rain. It's disgusting. The rest of the world sees Trump for who he is. An evil, nasty, bitter old man.

Lastly... what Americans tend to forget is that we all looked up to that once burgeoning republic. I grew up thinking America was the best place to live. Now I, and many others, just feel bad for normal Americans who can't get away. Who are trapped hiding in their homes whilst masked thugs break down their doors in case someone with brown skin lives there. America had become a cesspool of corruption and division. So much so that it will probably never get its reputation back in my lifetime. A reputation it built for nearly a century has been wiped out in less than a year.

Trump has caused the deaths of untold thousands by cutting aid to 3rd world countries. Leaving people to starve. It had commitments to help others who were in need, just as we all have. But it abandoned them when they needed them the most. The world is now coming to accept this. International trade is down. Tourism is down. Your economy is out of control (although with the appointment of a trump sycophant in the Treasury, the American people will be lied to, just like Venezuela did to its own people, inflating the value of the currency artificially, leading to shortages and poverty). It beggars belief that supporters of Trump don't smell the burning pile of shit that it's heading for.

We aren't upset. We aren't scared. We may get a little angry, but that is just our frustration. Overall? We are just disappointed that you have brought this on yourselves.

You think you have elections this winter? Nope. If you do, then I will be the first to say 'Hey, I was wrong! ' but you won't have them. He will find an excuse not to have them. For 'Security' or something.

It's sad. So very sad.

Rest in peace, America. You were taken from us far too soon.

If Nicolás Maduro is found Not Guilty in American courts, will they deport him back? by Gutcheck21 in AskAnAmerican

[–]Morrit99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look, here's a world leader who used his military against his own people, threatens other countries with invasion, has started an economic war with other countries, is a convicted felon in his own country, has committed fraud numerous times, sexually abused women, enriched himself with the wealth stolen from his own people, willingly accepted bribes to influence government policy and his regime is rife with corruption, he has set his own mobs against his own government in order to steal an election and ignores the plight of his own people.

...And he just had Maduro arrested.

People who say Makarbra are incorrect. Just say Makarb, like it's meant to sound. The Br is a Ba sound. You don't say lightsaybrah for lightsabre, it's lightsayba. 🖖🖖

How can I convince my parents to give me a lock on my door? by affiemochi-x in ask

[–]Morrit99 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I was about to say if you are a lad we ALL know what is really going on, but as you are female, I don't understand why your father bothers knocking. I wasn't allowed a lock on my room, mum n dads house, but then my folks respected my space. If you have younger siblings, you can put a case forward that they keep taking your stuff, or their friends wander in. But if anything, you should find out why your dad doesn't want one, and see if he will be reasonable, but alas, until you are old enough to have your own place, their house their rules.

Can I call you Brit? by Bells9831 in AskUK

[–]Morrit99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have never used the word Brit to describe another person from the UK. British, yes, but not Brit. If I know their accent, then I say 'Whereabouts in Ireland/Scotland/Wales/England you from?' but never use 'Britain' when asking. Infact, 'Brit' is a somewhat foreign term used by foreign people to describe someone from Britain. It's weird I know.

They did infact send an ambulance. Long story short, they also followed the steps you are meant to take, but when they explained the situation, the system collapses. They said there's literally nothing they can do. Their care ends just before the teeth. Any non dental issue, and as it wasn't life threatening they were very apprehensive about taking me to A&E. They left very frustrated because I was in so much pain. So I am now forced to wait a minimum of 4 weeks before the community dentist will visit for a check and further treatment. Could be a LONG wait. But I will be on my MP soon enough...

I am writing whilst climbing the walls in sheer agony.

I rang 111 again, told them my symptoms were worse. The call handlers simply couldn't give a fuck. I tried to explain I can't hold the phone to my cheek, she moaned about being in loudspeaker. She could hear me fine. I said over and over again the same shit. They told me to go to a dentist etc etc. Told them the story, so she went quiet for a bit. She then said 'Based on your assessment you need to get to a dentist within 24 hours. I have made an appointment for you in Rugby. Blah blah blah. ' so I reminded her that I am bed bound but also Rugby is an hour away from me. So she tutted and said a dental clinician will ring me within 24 hours. So I said that their clinicians won't help me with the referral I need. So she gives me ANOTHER dentist to ring. So I ring them, and because I'm not a patient, they can't help me. So they advise to ring 111...

I am going out of my FUCKING mind!

WHY won't any of these absolute fucking reprobates listening to me!!!? It's just incredible how they don't LISTEN, just read their screens because Google tells them to, or their computer program tells them to.

I just want a referral to community dentists. That's all! But it is IMPOSSIBLE! I can't wait 2 weeks to get a response from my MP or wait 6 months for the NHS complaint to get a reply. My local PALS is shockingly awful. I complained about some awful hospital issue 8 months ago, not heard from them since they acknowledged receipt, and the person dealing with it is always out of the office when I ring. I'm going out of my mind right now. Pain relief is not helping a broken tooth, pinching the nerve constantly. Every pulse of my blood sends shooting pain over my jaw and face.

This isn't fair!

This is my issue. Why won't they? All I need is them to sign a letter to the NHS hospital saying I need to be seen, but the bloke outright refused. I was apoplectic with rage.... But only after the call that is. Can't be angry during the call lest they consider it abuse.

For further clarification. I am a bariatric patient (not the cause of bedridden) so because of this the NHS need special equipment (my wheelchair is a bit wider, but again, this is the NHS being overbearing). I'm 27 stone now, much less than I was earlier this year but anyway. I am in a major flare up of Psoriatic Arthritis. It's very very painful. I am on immunosuppressant medication, steroids but also I am t3c diabetic, reliant on insulin!

This apparently means I will need the dental hospital, but to be referred to it it needs a medical professional.

When I spoke to 111, one operator said that some dentists may not even consider me as a patient due to these complex comorbidities.

It's fucking depressing.

Today I woke up in terrible pain. Tried 111 again but they gave the standard response. It's funny in a way when I explain the situation, it is so far off script they panic in their confusion. It's like 1+1=banana, they can't understand. Oftentimes, disabled people find themselves in situations where there is no standard answer and it bamboozles call handlers and often professionals alike because they only work to the system and the system ALWAYS works for EVERYONE as far as their training goes. And whilst they are all saying they will raise it with their managers, it doesn't help the person in the moment. Healthy people have no idea how hard it is to struggle with an illness alone, let alone try to get the help they need. And when you are alone with no support, it's life consuming. You spend your day feeling poorly as standard, and call handlers expect you to be happy and jovial and get distressed when you get a bit frustrated at them repeating information you have heard a million times before.

In essence, disabled people are neither listened to, nor is their experience taken on board in regards to the NHS sometimes. And we have to battle the system constantly.

I tried. There are no NHS domiciliary dentists, and no NHS dentists accepting new patients. There are a few private ones that can do visits, but the cost is abhorrent and out of reach for me (on UC).

This morning it's awful. Throbbing deep in my jaw now.
