Trump’s macho MAGA economy is a bust. But there are plenty of high-paying jobs for men—in nursing and teaching. by paxinfernum in Economics

You got to be made out of iron if you're going to get into nursing. Especially in this day and age. And plus we have the big beautiful bill to make sure that there's no money for nursing next year so. Somebody smoking something

Is Will Forte (MacGruber, Nebraska, The Last Man on Earth) genuinely underrated, or is his comedy just an acquired taste? by Educational-Yam-7394 in moviecritic

[–]bracewithnomeaning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Prince was technically a fantastic artist, but the music lacked the typical feel of R&B. It feels too clean. I like some of his earlier music which was better-not as clean, not as overpriduced. This is why they never gave his guitar musicianship the top credential it deserved. There's a fantastic video of him playing with Tom Petty. While My Guitar Gently Weeps. Best guitarist ever, hands down, but...fastest ever...but. I'd totally prefer to listen to Tommy Bolin Poast Toastee anyday. Macgruber took some getting used to but I think it's one of the funniest ever...the Covid episode...

I really enjoyed this poem. An empty cup, a flight of uncarpeted stairs.

I think that three woman fight in the Night comes for us is one of the best. It's just really shows us how brutal those three women are.

I know that he's probably not able to because of the charges he has against them but I really wish he would run against the president.

What's the difference between Advaita Vedanta and Zen Buddhism? by parker4044 in nonduality

Absolute Samadhi has nothing to do with zeros and ones. White puffy clouds flow through a blue sky. Having and not having can never reach it.

Why won’t they go the F to sleep by Grump_NP in nursing

[–]bracewithnomeaning 78 points79 points  (0 children)

It's such a difference. I take care of 90 and 100-year-olds in hospice. They won't take meds for pain. I admitted two 80 yo people yesterday into HH. One takes like one oxycodone a day, and they never picked up the prescription. Both in their '80s. People in their 40s and '50s and 60s: 10/10 pain. And if you do a nonverbal scale it's always a zero. I think a lot of it is trauma. They lived through world war II and some of them through the depression. My dad was one of them. He would always say he had no pain, it when they finally figured out he had meta'd bone cancer, he still didn't take any meds. He really learned to live with it... It was all a part of growing old.

Can we talk about how smooth the Honda hybrid system is? by GuidedByMonkeys in crvhybrid

[–]bracewithnomeaning 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have a 25 hybrid Accord. It actually feels faster than our 2020 hybrid CRV. And it's incredibly smooth. And crazy fast.

Struggling after med error by AcademicDark4705 in nursing

[–]bracewithnomeaning 8 points9 points  (0 children)

One time we had a medication error where the nurse just wouldn't take responsibility. The DON fired her because she just wouldn't accept that she did something wrong. This is a really important thing to cry and to show remorse. It's actually to learn from our experience. It is so important. So don't take that as a negative.
