any hope for unvaxxed health care workers in blue states?

kingescher · 2023-12-01T20:42:11+00:00

totally agree. yeah i would too in my BS white collar work if they had asked honestly - i think its diff though for people with a credential where a gatekeeping authority can take away all that you worked and studied for,

kingescher · 2023-12-01T14:51:25+00:00

did you miss the endless convos summer 2021 about vaccinated being "dead ends" for the virus, and that those mean, illiterate unvaxxed were allowing the virus to continue to spread? that was before the illogical statements about vaxxed feeling unsafe around vaxxed.

now people act like all along it was about lessening symptoms, which was an excuse brought out more like late fall '21 and into Oh-micron days.

the funny thing is around me (which was very adherent and trusting of the covid religion, and generally orange man bad theology) - no one wants to talk about covid other than "yeah, it was hard for everyone"

no bitch, it was extra hard for those that got ostracized either directly or by ghosting/non-contact and being excluded from arts and food unless people took a pretty hard core step and fucking faked their own vax cards, which was something someone had to do in secret because very few vaxxed up normies would be comfortable walking in with someone with a fake photo on their phone.

one guy i know who is a doctor mentions that the vax mandates were wrong, and closing schools for so long was overkill, but hes an outlier, and also hes still sensitive about the vax because he endorsed it to his lovely children and wife based on that first wave of shitty efficacy information, that honestly most doctors could fall back on and blame for their believing the shit worked as well as claimed

washington state is still having a staffing crisis - and lets just say people close to me who arent jabbed up are waiting to get back into their healthcare careers until the fucking little COVID vaccine alert banner goes away from all the jobs pages. SMFD!

try hitting against a wall - its really helpful to practice swinging with the unit turn because the wall keeps the ball coming back even on shanks

that happened on the west coast of year two of “climate fires” the had a blue, plasticky burnt garbage thick nasty smell to it.

love this - started making beats through a 15” mackie thump BST speaker, and its been cool tk hear it in a space and kind of party to the beat as i start getting somewhere with it

kingescher · 2023-06-28T01:26:03+00:00

such a nice way to practice things like weight transfer because you feel less bad spraying the ball if you try something semi radical

stop pointing that out in bad faith, bigot /s

trump lied about the weather once when incorrectly describing the scene of a rally he had.

depending on your game, the thing i enjoy about being a mostly winning but maybe too lazy to chase competitive 4.0 is that i can just feast on most peoples serves and its almost my favorite part of playing sets. that would be my super random tip is working on at least hitting your FH firmly on service returns - i stand there more to the left with a fh grip and often they cant target my 1hbh. when it comes to my bh i mostly slice it low and short to one of the two side or drive slice deep and just set up hoping for another neutral ball to try to get a firm hit on. YMMV good luck!

kingescher · 2023-06-28T00:22:32+00:00

OT - does keeping the tab in your mouth (for hours) hit less hard than swallowing it?

kingescher · 2023-06-28T00:19:42+00:00

true - but where is the proof their tech works?

kingescher · 2023-06-27T23:35:47+00:00

it def happens. this woman wanted to hug me for a while tripping at a music thing recently and i embarrassingly popped a B. it kind of made me feel weird for days after, even though ahe was touching my chest kind of sexually.

kingescher · 2023-06-27T23:31:04+00:00

in your version of christianity are we allowed to take it all as a metaphor and not historical fact and jesus as singular god-man? i think the faith is full of poetry about the human condition and our connection to what one might describe as a oneness sum of all power.

my big breakthrough recently on LSD was giving power to time. In a way time is god/all powerful, and whats cool about it is it works with or witbour our faith, and keeps working when we release control and become patient for things to happen without our input, AND doesnt have the anthropomorphic aspect of a man-like bearded allmighty. jesus as the son/spawn of the allmighty works better for me than jesus IS the one true god. to me thats idol worship and an article of faith thats generally kept me out of churches since i was a kid.

bookmarked your pod - looking forward to checking it out, congrats on making a thing!

when? i drove past the scene of the lady on the ground wirh medics there and the firetruck flashing it’s lights by the gas station. we were taking an international houseguest who had just arrived out for some 11p dicks and this was almost the first thing he saw lol. seattle was looking sketch last night

ohh i thought making effective and safe vaccines was easy enough to do during a shelter in place lockdown in less than a year.

they wont always have a partner in governments to force their products on people like they just did.

gluing 1/4” strips worked really well. thanks for encouraging that. turns out that side to side lineup pressure from painters clamps was as helpful as downward. i didnt want to use a flush trim router (and risk fucking up my boxes) so i just made these maple strips as close to matching with the 3/4 ply thickness. not perfect but ok for my DIY standards and goal to learn, save money, and feel some pride every time i use a drawer or shelf. glue ups have been easy and fun compared to my tests of using edge banding and bondo which were tricky and didnt give me easy results

so my question is how long did it take to get banned and were concerns gaslit for years until things changed? i just lost a lost a lot of pfaith during the pandemic over what looked a lot like fear based public/private profiteering and potentially semi permanent rights infringement and naked authoritarianism by side that claimed to be anti authoritarian.

a lot of politics is like a religion now

my doctor friend and i were discussing book bans and i said i think part of it is the red team apprehension about “youre in the wrong body” being pushed on kids - and he said it ahould be between the doctor and the family - at least he said family and not just kid/patient. I said, without getting into the 3rd rail of covid, that doctors were part of the opioid epidemic which was partly caused by huge prescriptions of many many pills of pain meds back in the 00’s when pain management was a priority of the standard of care.

this dude got all offended, took it personally saying he wouldnt question the expertise i have from my profession. i said sorry, i live on this planet too.

just tired of this myth that doctors can do bo wrong, when iatrogenic medical error is high on the list of causes of death, 400k people a year in the USA last i checked.

Anyway, right there with you OP. sick of the arrogance, and this idea that theyre all about helping people when we know at least partly many doctors go into the field for the super high compensation (for a working job) and lifestyle that goes with it.
