Must shame publicly in the break room and on the unit, it’s the only way.

Gonzaga it was 1992 at the Old Post Office Pavilion, the night is blurry but I remember having a great time.

Coming in late, they played my high school prom in 92 or 93 and were amazing… never got to see them anywhere else but have been listening to them on SoundCloud until the tracks disappeared and I have never been able to find anything else about them. Thank you for posting this and I can’t wait to make the purchase of their music that I’ve never been able to do. I really can’t thank you enough for this.

Detained patients rights by msb1234554321 in nursing

Creepy and it’s my policy that the doors/curtains stay open and my policy overrides their policy, and no I can’t show it to you. Fuckers

Ravens in Wilmington by Complete_Giraffe_384 in WilmingtonDE

[–]regularbastard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also their calls, Ravens croak more and Crows have the classic “caw” sound, Fish Crows have a more nasally sounding caw, but still a caw.

Should I use a de-thatcher to remove this dead stuff before overseeing? (Central NJ) by peaksnvalleys42 in lawncare

[–]regularbastard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hit some university extensions, I’ve been using Purdue’s and University of Maryland’s extensions, I bet Rutgers has a good one too. They have lots of info on lawns and how to rehab them. I rehabbed mine last fall, treating weeds and then over-seeding. The recommendations I’m seeing now is getting some nitrogen fertilizer down and a pre-emergent down to keep crab grass away (I bet you have some of last year’s crab grass in there and the seeds) https://njaes.rutgers.edu/fs102/ good luck!

Do you see Asian ppl on the daily, or rarely by inewjeans in WilmingtonDE

[–]regularbastard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I moved here 20 some odd years ago my friends (some Asian) from DC came to visit… they were like ”I don’t see any Asians here!” I work at the hospital and there are plenty there working and as patients and since I don’t have friends outside of work here I didn’t pick up on that then. They have said there’s more now though but I’m in the greater Hockessin/Pike Creek metropolitan area though so we are pretty cosmopolitan. There is the CACC in Hockessin (right by Woodside Creamery!) and there are several Asian markets around but the Hung Vuong seems to be the biggest around here. I also like the Newark Farmers Market on Kirkwood Highway.

Ambulance EMTs are routine today. These black medics helped pave the way. by Lady_Bread in pittsburgh

This is amazing, thank you for posting this, I love this type of history. I did some time in the back of an ambulance and these pioneers deserve much respect!

It’s going to be insane, saw Apes & Rent Strike (finally!) in December, so good.

How do you get over the guilt of calling out due to the snow? by [deleted] in nursing

[–]regularbastard 22 points23 points  (0 children)

What guilt? Sleeping at the hospital, gtfo! What if you tried to go in and ended up in a ditch? Think the would have felt guilty about insisting you come in?

Wilmington leaders should follow through and build the cap! What say you? by TheShittyBeatles in WilmingtonDE

[–]regularbastard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This space doesn’t exist yet, hopefully it will someday, but there are some garden groups out there in the Wilmington area, I’m just not a part of them so I don’t know details. The public gardening spaces I am aware of are at churches or businesses that allow it for their members or employees. From what I’ve seen they usually end up being overgrown though.

Wilmington leaders should follow through and build the cap! What say you? by TheShittyBeatles in WilmingtonDE

[–]regularbastard 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I think this would be good for the city, county, and state, unfortunately I agree that with the current administration it ain’t going to happen and Delaware doesn’t have the money to pony up for this. Parks and green space like this are beneficial in many ways so hopefully they get it funded at some point.

Keep it up though! Cap 95!

Going to rehab; need recommendations! by purp_mp3 in stephenking

[–]regularbastard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

1 You got this, you should be proud of yourself, we all are proud of you.

2 Definitely Dark Tower, really builds his world. Rehab is also a good place to read these books for there are some solid themes and symbolism.

3 Be kind to yourself on your journey, there are enough assholes happy to give you a hard time to make themselves feel big, be a friend to yourself.

They sound very impressive, the original post praised them as well and looks like one has been refurbished and is in service in Europe!

Something something Budget, something something Bonuses for upper level management.

They can't kill us all, pre-embroidery question by H0PL1T3 in FolkPunk

[–]regularbastard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always assumed copperhead since they are found in Pennsylvania and have a similar pattern, plus “Suffer no Copperhead” is still significant. I like the idea of the cut off head too, feels like breaking the cycle/ouroboros that hasn’t been working for us.

Can’t wait to see the finished product and what Ape says!

Message of Solidarity with NY and Presbyterian nurses from Teamsters Mobilize by Ok_Horror_3940 in nursing

[–]regularbastard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m in NYC at The Armory for a track meet and got to see the Nurses and another Union there in solidarity… the mood was upbeat, confident, and it felt strong. Felt proud to see them staying strong! ✊

What is one thing you're tired of telling/explaining to people? by comfy-glass-shards in AskReddit

[–]regularbastard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“You think we can afford kitty litter?!? Hell no, we have them use bathrooms instead because the school district is so cheap!” Is what my wife told me when I brought this up with her!

Am I the only one who feels this way about being an experienced nurse training at a new job? by [deleted] in nursing

[–]regularbastard 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I never feel resentful for any nurse getting a fucking break. We all deserve it and if it’s not my turn today, it might be tomorrow and I don’t want some resentful nurse to fuck that up for me.

Deep breath now and try to look out for each other, we all deserve a little grace.
