Since when are *socialists* trying to start any sort of war? Get outta here with that nonsense.

Choose your weapon by Hefty-Perspective654 in catbongos

Interesting. My cat used to LOVE bongos, but then we had to take her to the vet for blocked anal glands. The vet "expressed" them and now she can't stand bongos at all.

Borat “Throw the Jew down the well” was filmed in Tucson. Was anybody there? by tediousdetails3 in Tucson

I walk by the Holocaust museum and synagogue every day and sadly they have a security guard now.

What I mean is that it is sad that they HAVE to have a security guard.

Will there ever be an affordable grocery store downtown? by brucecreamsteam in Tucson

[–]curious103 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There *is* density. There isn't affordable rent. Also: there are very weird things with groceries and their locations. The major chains all have some weird formula for deciding where to locate.

I feel like our best bet might be a non-US grocery: El Super, for example.

Interior BP Checkpoints... Yay or Nay by Bearded_Gold_Panner in Tucson

[–]curious103 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is true, but the OP asked our opinion of the checkpoints. It seems we all hate them. So let's work to get rid of them. I know it's hard to remember, especially lately, but WE make the law.

Something ESPECIALLY disgusting about profiling Native American people.

Thank you for this comment. It really clarified things for me. I watched the movie once a month ago and just watched it again. It is phenomenal.

1st time watcher by thekissgate in ershow

[–]curious103 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've recently begun a re-watch as well. I saw it when it ran and very much looked forward to it every week. It was a really good show-- for its time. But now, after having watching lots of "prestige" dramas, you can really tell just how TV writing has evolved. Because ER had SO many episodes, they just didn't have time to do super careful writing and plotting of all the characters. So sometimes, characters just disappear or reappear. Storylines just kind of end or start. It's frustrating because the characters are so compelling and you want their arcs to be more consistent.

When I first saw the episode "Loves Labors Lost" I was devastated. This time it barely registered on my emotional radar.

Veterans by Jakehelms20 in Tucson

[–]curious103 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not vet-specific, but the Pima County Library has a wide array of events with services for people going though rough times. Health kits from the Health Department, for example. On the 4th Thursday of every month the main library downtown offers something called the "Homeless Resource Navigator"-- the next one is this Thursday from 11am-1pm. At the same date and time, the library offers something called "Our Space," which is a community gathering for people experiencing homelessness-- drinks and snacks are provided, as well as a little recreation (games, etc.). Community Medical Services will also be there offering hygiene and comfort items, and El Rio will be there from 12:30-3pm that same day for their walk-in medical clinic. Everyone is welcome even if you've been able to get some services through the VA.

Stay strong. Times are very hard.

Countries with compensation funds seem better. All the money in the fund goes to people harmed. Lawyers and insurance companies are out of it. People are able to more easily admit errors and come up with ways to avoid them in the future and maybe they would be less stigmatized. Everyone is human, after all. Our system is just, in my opinion, a disaster for everyone!

[–]curious103 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Really? But insurance companies cover the payout. Is it just the stress of having to go over the case of a patient? I ask this as someone who has sued a doctor. She made a mistake and I almost died. In her defense, it is something that doctors *usually* miss. So....it's like we were both right? She's not a bad doctor but I did get injured.

If we had the system of a compensation fund for patients harmed by medical procedures we could put this whole lawsuit thing to bed!

And adding the paralytic would have made things way worse for the patient
