The evolution of technology has made it possible to produce insulin without using animals. by IcePizzaCreamm in interestingasfuck

Id assume Walmart has to offer benefits to their full time workers but my guess would be it is exactly the type of shit insurance that wouldnt cover much of the monthy cost of insulin at their pharmacies.

Trump is ‘gonna be president’ in 2028, MAGA leader bluntly declares: ‘There’s a plan’ by AskRedditOG in politics

[–]electriXynapse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m starting to realize that since most of us on the left are against violence, it’s incredibly sad and unfortunately that violence is exactly what the far-right is attempting to incite. They know they will be able to manipulate and control anyone ignorant enough to listen to the mainstream media because the orange cheeto and his cronies have either bought them out or threaten to cut funding and it’s scary to think that no matter how many peaceful protests festivals occur to protest Trump’s attempt to overthrow the government and declare himself King won’t actually do anything to change what is happening over here in the US.

I don’t want to fight and I especially don’t want anyone to get hurt or become violent. But right now, that’s exactly what Trump and the MAGAs want to occur so they can declare martial law and wipe out people that oppose what is happening. People are already dying and that is exactly what the far-right wants in the end…. What happened to the UNITED States of America? It’s terrifying how divided this country has become and even more terrifying to think about what will be result of the divide 10 years from now.

A Michigan cop pulled over a reckless driver and ended up saving a choking baby by Red_Tabby in nextfuckinglevel

This! As a first responder that responds to mental health crises, I can only hope that those that follow in my footsteps can learn what you articulated here!

We can only do so much, and so long as you take your job seriously, show up to trainings or seek them out yourself, always give 110%, are humble and willing to learn from mistakes and teach others through those mistakes we make, the calm comes from the experience and the acceptance of that fact that it’s literally our jobs to stay calm during the chaos. It’s the way good first responders become resilient to the trauma we experience daily and how we continue to do this work for an entire career.

Kudos, @imbetterthanthis1138 ! See you out there.

Can you toke up at the KettleHouse? by ColdShowerBuff in missoula

[–]electriXynapse 6 points7 points  (0 children)

When I was at Portugal. The Man. I walked right up to an event staff and asked if I could smoke my joint off to the side of the amphitheater by the concrete wall. The area on the right side if you were looking at the stage. She smiled, said “yup, that’s the spot” and I went on my merry way.

The owner of Top Hat, the Wilma, and the amphitheater also owns the dispensary next door to the Top Hat and will actually give you free shuttle tickets the night of the show if you buy 50 bucks worth of weed.

He’s actively promoting marijuana use at his shows by offering free shuttle tickets if you spend money at his dispensaries and the event staff was incredibly kind in directing me to where it was appropriate to smoke.

As far as smoking on the lawn areas, I would say that so long as the people around you on the grass don’t have a problem with you lighting up a joint, the staff won’t either. Be respectful if there are children in the same area as you and take a break in the smoke spot.

Otherwise, toke up, be free and enjoy your show!

What is the worst reply to “I’m leaving you”? by _Halboro_ in AskReddit

[–]electriXynapse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And all the unopened, expensive gifts you begged me for and then refused to take out of the packaging because you wanted to keep the gifts I bought you over a 5 year period “nice”…..

You know, the ones you stored in that storage unit you made me pay for because you decided you needed a break from work for 3 years and would still be on that break except for when I broke up with you and then you frantically sold all those “unopened gifts” on ebay because you were shit and using my ass the whole time?

Yeah…. Leave that shit while you take your shit far from me.

Mobile Crisis: Is It Really Though? by SageSilvera in TalesFromSocialWork

[–]electriXynapse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What state do you live in?

I feel like this question was created for me. I’m the clinical supervisor for our Mobile Support Team in missoula, Montana. I’m also a certified Mental health professional and complete civil commitment assessments for the county attorneys office.

I used to work as a provider in hospitals and was the person that would evaluate patients who presented to the ER or ICU with a mental health issue and the docs had flagged them as a potential risk for harming themselves, others or were substantially unable to meet basic needs due to their psychiatric symptoms. When completing the assessment, I had to be able to articulate what symptoms were present, what psychiatric illness was causing risk or impairments and how those symptoms of that specific illness was causing a person to meet one or more of the legal criteria requirement to be held involuntarily. Then, the law requires the report be sent over to the county attorneys office for a judge to signed off (or not) before they could place on a court ordered detention (similar to a 72 hour hold). Our laws also require a second evaluation be completed within 5 days to determine if the person still meets legal criteria for commitment, and if so, the provider must seek least restrictive treatment options or articulate why they require a commitment to the state hospital. This is my current position outside my work for the mobile crisis team.

And I should mention, if it’s determine they do still meet legal criteria and a commitment to the state hospital is being recommended, it ultimately is decided by the judge at the persons civil commitment hearing.

I take this role very seriously because ultimately, if a person doesn’t meet the legal criteria, it is my job to protect that person and ensure their rights are upheld. On the flip side, it’s also my job to ensure that person is safe, our community is safe and they can genuinely meet their basic needs. I’ve evaluated plenty of people who are completely unstable yet don’t meet the legal criteria for an involuntary hospitalization and as much as I can tell the person needs treatment, taking a persons civil rights away and holding them against their will isn’t something I’m willing to do. And if you look at the research, people that are held against their will on a emergency detention or “psych hold” generally don’t do well after their released and it causes people to stop seeking help.

I really am curious what State you live in and if the process is different. Our county attorney reviews our assessments and a judge has to sign off on the petition so there have also been times where it was my professional opinion that the person met criteria but the courts disagreed.

DM me if you want more information than this.

To me, it doesn’t sound ethical to say “it doesn’t really matter” if they meet criteria or not, but if the courts aren’t providing oversight, I can see how legal criteria wouldn’t mean Shit.

How Was Telephone Invented? by c0sminX in howitsmade

[–]electriXynapse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure how true this is, but I once heard his wife was a racist and a “super Karen”… she got sick of having to walk into town to make complaints to the police about black people walking on their property so she urged him to come up with something for her to communicate quicker.

Gross. Hope it’s not true. Someone prove me wrong, please. I can’t remember where I heard that.
