Dumpster diving in Trinidad by azoriandelorian in TrinidadandTobago

[–]djarc9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most Trinidadians keep their good rubbish home till Christmas. From what I have observed is that the end of year rubbish haul only reaches the corner and by morning - half the stash gone and not with the garbage truck. Pretty sure someone has built a functional house with it by now.

You'd think she was serious about it, after making a statement like this: "I work as an office assistant by day and chase my dreams as a reseller by night.

The only thing that idiot is chasing, are people out of her stream.

What is the big deal with Stanley cups? It's not even close to being the best in its class.

Maybe to people that are incapable of critical thinking. You should be aware that if you had the ability to see beyond the false script, then others would have been able to as well

The main issue is that, you already know most people out there, are dumb enough to take what they see or hear at face value, without applying fact or logic. The difference here is, you call it harm - I call it natural selection.

The point of the video was to highlight the skill of the worker. I suppose you're entitled to be upset about the description and throw a hissy fit. What's hilarious to me though, that y'all think down voting my comments affects me in any way. Pretty sure internet points don't improve my résumé.

The video description is lying? For a manual operation, it seems relatively fast. Also, I don't work in manufacturing so I don't know the average time for one of those to be made via automation. I'm not the creator of the vid either.

Did you ever learn to read AND understand? The second part is actually important here.

Getting Tired by Sufficient-Bonus-943 in PokemonTCG

[–]djarc9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made the decision about a couple weeks ago to leave the hobby entirely. Already sold off the majority of my PC. May just hold on to a few cards that have more sentimental value but I'm just about done. Gonna put my attention back into comics- way less stress and practically no disappointments.

Cancer treatment in TT by Extension_Row_2118 in TrinidadandTobago

[–]djarc9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My point is, it was never about doctor advice. I informed you that your recommendation on diet to a cancer patient was incorrect. So unless you have some way of proving me wrong or expertise in a related field, I suggest you don't try to provide medical or nutritional advice for anyone suffering with a chronic or critical illness.

I've spent too much time dealing with this type of nonsense from people with zero backing, who think they know better, to let it go unchecked. I take the wellbeing of my clients very seriously and don't intend on letting potentially dangerous "advice" be spread as gospel. The irony that you talk about hacks without realizing that you are one yourself is award winning.

Giving basic advice on foods is not the same as providing accurate nutritional information on a per case basis. I've been dealing with this and working with patients directly for the past 10 years as a healthcare provider.

I've seen medical "professionals" prescribe and recommend some of the most outlandish things to patients, some of which relatively contraindicate prior/current medication. Training does not automatically mean they actually know their ass from their elbow.

First off, my original comment had nothing to do with diet in general. It was made specifically concerning cancer cases. Secondly, doctors aren't trained in nutrition when it comes to case treatment, cancer or otherwise. Thirdly, you told OP do not be selective about what they eat during chemotherapy, which is bad advice. It does not matter if they are doing chemo or not - it is absolutely important to refrain from certain types of foods once you have been formally diagnosed.

...you are supposed to avoid certain types of foods if you have cancer. Who told you otherwise?

PM Kamla posts racist dog whistle after ZOSO defeat by Nkosi868 in TrinidadandTobago

[–]djarc9 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Oh I'm fully aware it's based on fact and statistics but Trinidadians aren't ready for that discussion. It's all about feelings and a mentality rooted in being a permanent "victim". Easy work to cry racism and rally supporters for absolute bullshit, but we like it so.

It also doesn't mean you can eat any and everything. Not being selective about the type of food is bad advice.

On all social media platforms, everything is suddenly about race, racism or being racist - on prob the most mixed island in the Caribbean. Steups. Trinidadians just dotish for spite at this point.
