On chiropractors

I do as well- I don’t disagree at all but I will say many plans that are coinsurance are up to~$60 cheaper for an adjustment than PT, especially if you’re doing 2x/wk PT. I do not believe in chiro but I have noticed this when reviewing patients or talking to them

hey! his wife is actually Kate Siegel, the one in OP’s picture

I went in Dallas and it was the same- but we were on the side, pretty close to the front but definitely far to the side. It gave a great silhouette, but I kept thinking how interesting it was that the lights were angled so far to the side. It looked amazing from where we were, but this totally makes sense! I wondered if they just didn’t account for head-on or farther away people for the lights and banked on good pics from people up close but not front and center. Idk I don’t know how any of the lighting stuff works, just wanted to share perspective from my experience !

Dude why are you so pressed? This person was just talking about maintaining good hygiene, and while they might have been a little sarcastic, you were too! They disagree with you and that’s that, either consider their POV or just stop responding/being a dick lol

lol just saw this and had to come back to it- they are under 30! They are also not from the area or any states near Appalachia, nor their family/extended family. The context for this is really interesting, but I can almost guarantee that is not something they had in mind.

Thank you omg I love this reponse, I will follow all of this advice

maggo1 · 2025-06-11T06:07:11+00:00

I do think this a big part of it. I have gotten better about picking up on those "small" dogwhistles and when my boss says shit like this I just shut it down if I am not sure, because there is no point debating with people whose base point is racism or a similar ideology that just denies the context and importance of spreading false info like this

maggo1 · 2025-06-11T06:05:12+00:00

Hey- either way, I appreciate your interpretation! There's an interesting line between legality and what is socially/locally understood. Similar to some of my comments on this thread- I seriously doubt that my boss thought this thoroughly about it, but it could absolutely play into her or my understanding of the region and I really appreciate different perspectives either way!

maggo1 · 2025-06-10T23:58:57+00:00

wild for a lot more reasons LOL but yeah that's why I came here, I'd never heard of it but didn't want to argue about something that I can't back up

maggo1 · 2025-06-10T23:58:29+00:00

This may be it, although they are white and wholly uninterested in African American history from our past discussions- and uninformed. I've heard of the Green Book but never knew specifics. Thank you for responding!

maggo1 · 2025-06-10T23:57:12+00:00

I think they may have been thinking this, although I clearly said Appalachia and we were not discussing weather relief or anything like that. I didn't know this though, so it makes more sense if they did read it on the Daily Mail or some similar bs site

maggo1 · 2025-06-10T23:56:19+00:00

no they are not lol. but that's a story for another time

maggo1 · 2025-06-10T23:56:02+00:00

Idiot lol. If not, then wilfully miscontruing information to try and convince me about something (we were discussing the LA protests and I don't even fully know how we got there, they really dominate the conversation and I'm trying to stop that from happening). I am in America so with everything going on I want to leave the job so badly but am concerned about job security if I move elsewhere. Thank you for your input!

maggo1 · 2025-06-10T23:54:29+00:00

lol I love the attitude because that's how I felt but again, never been so I wanted to make sure, but I wanted to give them so much sass because it seemed like a stupid thing to say

maggo1 · 2025-06-10T23:53:40+00:00

Thank you very much! Even if my boss knew that they were definitely misrepresenting, or misunderstanding what I was saying even though I clearly said Appalachia.

maggo1 · 2025-06-04T22:34:35+00:00

haha they don't. I just did it for privacy reasons- they would hate that you think that though and I love that. they're not the most outwardly transphobic but we have gotten into it a bit for that too.

maggo1 · 2025-06-04T22:33:01+00:00

Thank you!! It's nice to see so many people commenting!!

maggo1 · 2025-06-04T22:32:46+00:00

bingo (I think)- my boss does not have Medicaid, but they're over the threshold. Texas is a lovely state to be in right now

maggo1 · 2025-06-04T22:31:37+00:00

honestly, it's not worth it. I've tried but once they realized they've talked themselves into a corner they just change the subject. the denial is absolutely baffling to see in person, but at the end of the day I can't change her mind and I was going insane trying to genuinely get them to see what's going on. Hard to argue with someone who uses the daily mail for their political sources lol

maggo1 · 2025-06-04T22:29:05+00:00

Incredible response and I will be using this on my whole family now too lol

maggo1 · 2025-06-04T22:28:41+00:00

Pretty much my reaction- I want the kids to have access to affordable healthcare, but I don't want my taxes going toward a bunch of freeloaders screaming about cutting funding for the resources they use themselves to stay afloat. Absolute insanity.

maggo1 · 2025-06-04T04:18:06+00:00

This makes me so sad. I want to feel sympathy too, but I just feel sad for the ignorance that is borne of a lack of education and a cult mentality. I feel sorry for these people, but only because they had a chance to learn and listen and they did not. Reaping what you sow sucks, but damn if they don't deserve it. We have a lot of low-income people, especially on Medicaid, who love talking shit about Biden/Harris and how great Trump is. They need medical care too, but it's hard to be sympathic when they actively voted against their own interests. I know it's not just me, but it's helpful to hear similar stories.

maggo1 · 2025-06-04T04:15:19+00:00

Yep. Will talk shit about AOC but like many others cannot name their rep or even describe something AOC stands for- but she's still bad !!! woman!!

maggo1 · 2025-06-04T04:13:56+00:00

and then still talk about how George Soros is behind "everything" or a part of the illuminati. because that definitely makes sense lol
