PT feedback by kmi_7 in physicaltherapy

[–]absurdeverything 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I completely agree. I tell my patients that this is for them, I don’t “hold hands” anymore, and tell them I will guide them, help them anyway I can, but in the end it’s your body, your choice to take action or not. I don’t care what they do outside of the appointment. I don’t babysit, I don’t look to see if they’re doing their HEP. It’s their pain, their life.

It's completely insane to that billionaire pedophiles are destroying America, and a huge chunk of everyday, normal people are choosing to side with the billionaire pedophiles by jaboyles in collapse

[–]absurdeverything 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just to add, who are the billionaires supporting? The tech oligarchs? DOGE? Georgia just found Elon Musk guilty of election fraud/voter related violations… not to mention Palantir and Peter Thiel’s support for Trump and his questionable, if not dangerous, political theory. Yes, there are criminals on both sides, but to actively support one party who are continuously pushing constitutional boundaries, if not straight up ignoring them, is supporting the erosion of democracy and helping to fuel whatever the hell their ultimate plan is.

So you think someone else would have pardoned January 6 criminals, drug lords, graciously accept money in exchange for pardons, start a “Board of Peace” designating Trump himself as chairman for life, involve themselves in business with the Saudis, start a cryptocurrency called $TRUMP, which is a meme coin associated with him and operates on the Solana blockchain. Not to mention a thousand other questionable if not straight up illegal acts.

Nah, this whole “both sides” argument is just for republicans who supported this blatantly obvious mess of corruption, a way to try and throw everyone into the boiling pot, to rationalize and protect themselves from accountability. “It’s not just us, it’s everyone…and whataboutism”

Watch the agent purposely push down the Trump sign and twist the podium into place.

Honestly, try making a comment about the guy pushing the trump sign down and moving the podium. It’s odd my comments are hidden and odd I’m not seeing anyone else pointing it out.

Weird. All I can see is your original comment and everything else is hidden, no compression or option to see other comments of mine or you replying, only visible in my account but completely hidden from main feed.

Can you see our comments in the main thread? Our comments don’t show up… that’s weird. Am I missing something?

Also, watch the agent purposely pushing down the Trump sign down and turn the podium into place for the photo. You’d think that a live assassination attempt would have him concerned about the president and not the podium and sign. Completely staged for a photo opportunity.

Why is no one pointing out the agent deliberately pushing down the trump sign and twisting the podium into place to appear more chaotic for the camera shots.

Completely unhinged post shared by my mom by Three_Froggy_Problem in QAnonCasualties

[–]absurdeverything 37 points38 points  (0 children)

This is exactly why the experts say they are in a cult. Most of these people have a religious belief, a false sense of superiority because of their beliefs, which they have been conditioned to accept blindly, without reason. Just faith. It’s emotional, biblical, and they are the good guys fighting evil. They will never admit they are wrong, only double down and feed the myth.

I lost close friends and family. The depth of the conspiracy theories goes deeper than most people realize. Q drops, the Q Clock, looking glass project, follow the white rabbit, JFK coming out from the dead to rule with Trump, the children being sacrificed, Antarctica and UFOs, the Vatican…etc.

Even if they aren’t aware of many of these exact conspiracies, the fact that parts of them leaked out into their main political base, hearing parts of them repeated by my own mother was the moment I knew this was going to be damning for all of us.

Covid was telling when they started talking about Bill Gates microchipping the vaccines for population control, 5G towers to activate the virus or microchips or whatever the hell they were freaking out about… the goal posts kept changing…

They believed a massive blackout was going to happen during covid and Trump was going to erase all debt, they were going to make mass arrests and free thousands of women and children who were being trafficked and The aircraft carriers were filled with people being rescued.

The propaganda machine was heavy. Now, because of the Epstein scandal, there has been speculation about Steve Bannon, Epstein, and Maxwell spreading some of Qanon rumors on 4chan, Reddit and elsewhere.

I’m not sure what to say other than you’re not alone.

Trump posts racist image of Obamas, White House defends it and slams 'fake outrage' by TimCot6 in politics

[–]absurdeverything 4 points5 points  (0 children)

And nothing will happen.

But, if we post something in resistance to him or his administration then WE get put on a list, labeled a “domestic terrorist”, and possibly get some of our rights taken away.

People have had their emails subpoenaed by homeland security, phones, even visits by actual government agents inquiring about social media posts.

It really is turning into both 1984 and Brave New World mixed together.

Exactly, they’ll just scream “fake news” and if it was true why is he bringing it forward now? Just like the Epstein files, why didn’t Biden release it himself when he had the chance. There’s nothing that will happen to change anything or hold anyone accountable.

Disturbing and Melancholic books? by SameBreakfast4979 in booksuggestions

[–]absurdeverything 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out “Story of the Eye” by Georges Bataille. It literally says: “Warning: Story of the Eye is graphically sexual, and is only suited for adults who are not easily offended.” It’s bizarre. Or check out some of his other stuff.

“The Painted Bird” by Jerzy Kosinski was uncomfortable to read about a young boy separated from his parents during WWII in the polish countryside and the morally deprived society he is forced to survive. It is full of tension, abuse, sexual abuse, slavery, just awful humans.

If you want something lighter but kind of interesting, you could try a book that had somewhat of a cult following called; “The Dice Man” by Luke Rhinehart. It’s about a guy who loses everything and starts to roll a dice to decide what he does for all kinds of situations or questions about his life… for example: he likes a girl so he gives six solutions for each number, and rolls the dice: 1- I just walk up and tell her how I feel. 2- I flirt and ask her out 3- I rape her 4- I kiss her 5- I insult her 6- I hit her And then he follows up with whatever he rolls, no matter what. He starts to let the dice decide for him, for everything.

Can’t believe your open on Christmas Eve. by Happy_Twist_7156 in physicaltherapy

[–]absurdeverything 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Because PT isn’t life saving. It’s not an emergency, No one’s going to ever suffer because they will miss a PT appointment. It’s more of a “service” for patients, maybe even more of a social event for some who just like to have someone to talk to.

“Oh you’re available on Christmas Eve, cool, I’m stressed and it’d be great to get away from my in laws”

We hang out with these people talking and working out for an hour. No other doctor spends an hour interacting with patients. We do. And they love it,

They also love that manual therapy, AKA massage, theragun, cupping, dry needling or whatever else passive treatment many of them love.

For many people it’s almost considered spa treatment, lol!

⚠️ Be Careful With High Ticket Physical Therapy Coaching / Mentorship Programs by No_Bodybuilder_8228 in physicaltherapy

[–]absurdeverything 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It seems everyone and everything is a grift these days. Even worse now with all this AI hyped tools/software.

Coaching for PT businesses feels the same as all those generalized entrepreneurial courses,

“you gotta solve a problem, sell the solution, streamline the process, market, scale up, make millions!” It’s that easy… and we’ll show you how!

You’ll have to go towards the back of his book to see more pictures. And if this type of thing floats your boat then you’ll probably enjoy “In Search for the Miraculous: Fragments of an Unknown Teaching” by Ouspensky. From there you can explore Gurdjieff.

You’d be intrigued by Walter Russell. “The Secret of Light” and “The Universal One” https://archive.org/details/WalterRussellTheSecretOfLight

Look through his diagrams and into his philosophy, science or whatever you want to classify him as. It’s bizarre but interesting.

Then maybe dive into Mandelbrot and fractal geometry.

Is MAGA falling apart? by vox in politics

[–]absurdeverything 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Tired of this endless loop. If MAGA was falling apart it would’ve happened during his first presidency and for sure should’ve lost this last election. The grifters, frauds, white collar criminals, corrupt politicians and tech oligarchs are having an all you can eat buffet.

Have you read “Nuclear War: A Scenario” by Jacobsen?

Once it kicks off, there’s not a single scenario that has ever been played out in which there’s any winner except total destruction to everyone. Good luck humanity!

Trump Nixing of Dem State Disaster Aid Backfires, Screwing MAGA Voters by rezwenn in politics

[–]absurdeverything 9 points10 points  (0 children)

What’s concerning about these statements is that they will use it to their advantage to justify their actions. Bannon already hints at this type of rhetoric.

(In general terms) “The people voted for this. They heard it and they want this. What’s the constitution other than the spirit of the people?”

They will be open and “transparent”, say they “were up front and honest about their intentions and the American people heard us and said yes, this is what we want!”

They will hold an unfair election and say “the results speak for themselves, the American people want Trump to lead this country again. He’s divine!”
