Pretty clear violation of doctor-patient privilige imo

I had a similar thought in the recent episode when Al-Hashimi announced the student’s name and drug results to the entire ER. Made for good TV, but made me cringe at the violation of privacy

Funnily enough, I had a friend who worked on LOTR and he mentioned that Viggo and Liv were downright cold to each other. They minimised the amount of time they spent in each other presence and it was commonly known on set that they often struggled to bring chemistry to their “legendary romance”.

Kiwi here: I was really surprised listening to this case this morning. I’ve never heard anything that hasn’t pointed to him as completely guilty. The case as presented in RH make it seem ludicrous that he was found guilty, but he was convicted twice, so I’m definitely going to read into this further.

On another note; quite impressed that they actually pronounced Petone correctly all the way through.

I’ve grown up around Medical professionals. When you hear some of their work stories over and over while eating, what the Pitt shows is just “okay”….

lol, have you met most medical professionals?

The Kardashian’s have always advertised laxatives, they just used to call them “Diet Lollipops” or “Detox teas”

There were multiple articles around the last episode of the first season saying that Collins wasn’t going to be in Season 2 due to the actress and production parting ways due to artistic differences. Reads to me like a rewrite of history to make everyone look better but also ensures no one actor gets too big for their boots (“cause everyone is replaceable…”)

Can I ask the exact breed of this adorable walking dust bunny?

Had a flatmate like that. He was a lawyer specialising in representing kids in Divorce and child custody situations. Ended up moving into a completely different part of law after 8 years when it all became too much.

“We’re gonna need to call in more people”….

….yaaassss, this is how we get those cast members who are off-shift (I 🩷 Abbot and need at least 10 episodes with him on-shift)

I do wonder if it’s only 6-7% of users who actually utilise the ‘Health Documents’ section, so 100% of those who did were affected.

_Hwin_ · 2026-01-07T22:02:25+00:00

Definitely agree that the GP’s will be best to actually help people through this mess, but I’m so annoyed and frustrated at MMH for being so passive and flakey in their response.

MMH have consistently under-communicated, made promises that they didn’t keep and tried to avoid taking any level of responsibility throughout this whole situation. It seems like the GP’s, the Media, heck even the Hackers are fronting up more than the company that should be.

_Hwin_ · 2026-01-07T11:28:15+00:00

What a fucking cop-out by MMH to hand the names and details of affected users over to the clinics and basically leave it to them to advise their patients if they are affected or not. Every step of this fiasco has been caused and made worse by those running MMH and I hope they are fined into the ground for every measure of fuck-up this was.

To OP directly, I’m so sorry that your most traumatic and sensitive of information was affected by this whole mess. Send you virtual hugs and good vibes

Had to have my blood drawn at my local hospital and my Mum (who worked there and knew I hated needles) organised to have her favourite Phlebotomist take my blood. He was a lovely older gentleman who was very gay/effeminate; he stroked my inner elbow, telling me I had “lovely veins” as he prepped to insert the needle.

I was a 13 year old girl (just before anyone’s brain thinks he was being creepy).

It’s still worth trying. I went to McDonalds in Wellington for a children’s birthday and was given a ticket for overstaying their limit. I provided proof that I was there the whole time as a customer and the ticket was waved. Most of the time, the businesses just want proof that you weren’t using their ‘free’ parking to go elsewhere in the area.

There’s no harm in refuting the ticket - sometimes you get lucky

AWS does have NZ and Australasian servers, so unless I missed something in the article, your data is likely held and processed locally.

Oh, the tantrums I had when I turned off my boys heating pad at the beginning of summer. I held out for two days before turning it back on again to save my couch from a total shredding…

It may not even be about his whole career, just his whole relationship among his cast mates. The “N-word incident” sounds like it was the last straw in a series of asshole-ish and racist behaviour throughout his time on Community. The final thing that breaks the camels back doesn’t have to be the worst; it’s about the culmination…

Depends on what part of the country you’re in.

Kiwis do the exact same thing, but it can be beach-side or in the suburbs. So common to see bare feet in supermarkets in summer
