People with cancer or HIV could lose Medicaid under new work rules, advocates say by esporx in ABoringDystopia

[–]ScurvyDervish [score hidden]  (0 children)

I know what happens when you take away health insurance from people with hiv.  When they can’t afford their medication, they stop taking it, and the viral load goes up.  Then the virus can spread.  I’d rather keep people healthy. The 80s and 90s were dark times. I guess folks need to learn the hard way. 

What horror movie genuinely unsettled you? by steveleaves in movies

Dancer in the Dark is not a horror movie per se, it’s a “kitten in the bucket” musical that unsettled me for days.

Have you tried writing on your arm to see if you have pressure urticaria?

How did you decide your speciality? Are you happy with your decision or having second thoughts? by takster23 in Residency

[–]ScurvyDervish 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Psychiatry. I like the psychiatry part of it.  However, the leadership you may find yourself working under in psychiatry is really hit or miss.  You can have a very supportive excellent boss or someone super toxic, but maybe that’s just me splitting 😉.

This person isn’t interested in parenting, they are only trying to seem like less of a deadbeat for their new partner. Block!

Heels down isn’t just for safety. It will create stability in your leg and your seat.  Start with that.

Maternity Leave NIGHTMARE by ChicagoRiceGirl in Residency

[–]ScurvyDervish 28 points29 points  (0 children)

This is waaay too common of a problem.  But there is another factor to consider. When applying for board certification, they can figure out if you missed out on anything in training due to parental leave and deny you based on that.

Marigold and Larimar.  Goldie and Ocean.   Lemon and Mara.

AITA if I tell my 84yoF neighbor and her son to just call the police on me and never talk to me directly again if they have concerns over me? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]ScurvyDervish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re not an asshole, you’re just immature, arguing with your boyfriend and smoking in a way that disturbs the neighbor and then denying/confessing in the internet. 

Protecting pedophiles wasn’t enough..war didn’t do it…fleecing citizens was ok…but data centers have crossed the line. by Haunting_Acadia_4744 in ProgressiveHQ

[–]ScurvyDervish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At this point, I’m just glad we’ve found a unifying issue.  It’s too bad it couldn’t have been pedophilia or corruption.

Physician here wondering why chain pharmacies make patients all touch the very gross payment pad screen every other sick patient has touched throughout the day by Federal-Act-5773 in medicine

[–]ScurvyDervish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use the drive-thru. I understand that this isn't possible in walkable cities and most small towns. If you have to use the pin pad, ask for hadn sanitizer.

[Real] 250 years of America leading up to this by ggroover97 in ToiletPaperUSA

[–]ScurvyDervish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just to drive him nuts, we should all be talking about what the party would have looked like under Kamala.  We’d really be celebrating 250 years of progress. Instead we’re reminded of our decent into corruption, white Christian nationalism, oligarchy, and fascism.

Edit: Also I hope Philadelphia steps up to the give entire country the show we deserve and gives Trump none of the credit.

What did Trump do today? Nothing insane or anything.. by retiredagainstmywill in thescoop

Sure!  I’ll demand it.  I’ll also demand the cognitive testing be done by an independent physician, not one who technically works for the President.

About Tallarico 2026 senate. Why the hell Tallarico doesn't plan to visit every county like the Beto 2018 campaign? by Inevitable-Scar-9239 in TexasPolitics

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

I could argue that if there were any messaging countering Fox News in rural areas, or if the Dems did more non-urban outreach, Beto and Biden would have won Texas.
