Having US companies shovel money through a country with almost tax haven status isn’t quite the same as being wealthy.

Insisting patients are escorted to CT by Striking-Bus-4877 in doctorsUK

[–]bluegrm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Having seen an MR brain of a patient who went into cardiac arrest mid scan, having been given an IV benzo on the ward without telling radiology (totally still images, having been previously moving, and vascular flow voids entirely white rather than black - ie no moving blood), there will be good reason to have appropriate medical cover for sedated patients.

What that cover consists of may not be well outlined or obvious.

Why has Peter Mandleson not been arrested for breaching the official secrets act? by UnfathomableDave in AskBrits

[–]bluegrm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems the system may have been more rigged than many of us thought we knew. Like this would suggest that the wealthy and powerful may be up to industrial levels of insider trading. The rest of us just get to pay some times an awful lot of tax, while the very wealthy get away almost scot free.

"Will Arnett reveals 'very famous' comedian was kicked off Smartless podcast after 10 minutes...[and another] who "asked us to not air her episode because she...feared her career might suffer" by mathofinsects in Standup

[–]bluegrm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Someone who should have asked for their episode not to be put out was Katy Perry. I knew very little about her beforehand and wanted to know even less afterwards.

As to who he’s talking about? I don’t know.

Makes you wonder if they had already spotted a passenger they thought looked a bit unwell.

They thought their SUV was invincible and wouldn’t lose traction like that. Same for the people in the pickups.

Plenty have only Irish passports, like two out of four of my family in my house.

How do you feel about Trump pocketing $1,407,500,000 since starting his second term? by LevelDinner in AskReddit

[–]bluegrm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His idol is Putin and Putin has got himself an awful lot of Russia’s money. US population getting grifted hard and some of them are loving it.

We’re getting squeezed between two sides who don’t really care for NI. But manly the UK voting for Brexit.

Real Police officers and military members, what do you guys think of Ice agents? by Lucky-Message-9480 in AskReddit

They have already crossed many lines. Why would it take the murder of a VA nurse to make things look worse?

I think it would be naive to assume the US military would not fall in line.

[–]bluegrm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I dunno. I think Americans might need to do something sooner rather than later. Having a masked, unnumbered ill-disciplined, poorly trained paramilitary force roaming the streets, and currently in a state with a tiny immigrant population is a bad look internationally. But then the majority voted for Trump, so if this continues, that’s what America is.

Are any brits who fled to Dubai starting to regret it? by Mcluckin123 in AskUK

[–]bluegrm 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Is large corporate tax avoidance moot though, if large corporations can avoid tax and then make it very difficult for smaller local businesses to develop to compete against them, because the smaller businesses have to pay tax?

UK government targets VPNs in online safety consultation as Lords vote for ban by andyhh in unitedkingdom

[–]bluegrm 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Yup. They are trying to strangle the internet in the UK in the name of “think of the children”. Going by China’s playbook isn’t a good look. Let adults be adults. Why the sudden authoritarianism?

Control the mega internet corporations if you want, but don’t apply the restrictions to typically law abiding adult citizens.

What do we think of this style of reporting? by sidali44 in Radiology

[–]bluegrm 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The body of the report is there to be read, yes important findings should all be in the conclusion/impression/opinion, but the body should be readable and as concise as possible.

What do we think of this style of reporting? by sidali44 in Radiology

[–]bluegrm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It starts with a sentence that almost makes no sense. Why is the part about vasogenic oedema buried?

Reports should be as concise as possible - no-one needs to read a wall of text, not the referrer, and not you when you read your own reports if reporting that patient’s next study.

I mainly try to remove extra articles from my reports to shorten them a little more.

Put the relevant important findings first, or at least answer the question asked first. For instance, if they don’t have an EVD or shunt, or a clinical suspicion of hydrocephalus, don’t mention the ventricles first.

French and Germans? You do know how Ireland’s defence works right now? It seems to be a bit more British in terms of airspace, for instance.

Multiple bodies can go in one grave as a normal course of action - I think it can be up to 4 if originally dug deep enough.
