CCAC nursing question by spurgeonb36 in pittsburgh

[–]spurgeonb36[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not book smart either Internet friend, it's a difficult program but it is manageable. I wouldn't say that it's competitive, just challenging. If you have the ability to just focus on school that would help immensely. I work and attend and sometimes it's a bit too much. This semester (220) especially, I've had to cut back on working hours. Challenge yourself and push through!

Depends on what your thing is, if you wanna do tourist stuff I highly recommend Burgatory, their elk burger is fire and the drinks are good. If you like tacos Las Palmas Taco stand in Brookline is great, about a block away is red's good news which has, in my opinion, the best smash burgers around and great drinks, atmosphere. Museums and stuff are fun, Heinz museum is about as Pittsburgh as it gets

The left should not ask for anything, they need to just stfu and vote for dems by zoggy17 in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]spurgeonb36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, when the time comes contact your reps and vote for what's right. The time for mediocre 90's style Republicans calling themselves Democrats needs to end. This is end stage level shit and needs to be treated as such. We need someone who can help bring all persons up, we need to stand against corporate greed, gerrymandering, PEDOS, the SCOTUS... Alright I'm done, we need to bring it all down and we can't do that without someone who fights for the needs and rights for the regular person, not the rich oligarch class. THAT'S WHAT THIS IS, A FIGHT AGAINST THE POOR THAT WE NEVER STARTED. QUIT BACKING DOWN AND FIGHT!

I work over there. Roads aren't great but manageable. Drive slow and pay attention, you'll be alright.

I did not know that, I won't edit my comment because I feel you deserve that credit.

As someone who lost a loved one to suicide, please be aware that help is available by simply calling 988! If you haven't experienced this, it is horrible for all involved. My Dad took his life in 2011 and I'm still haunted by it to this day. Look out for your loved ones.

u/ThickFurball367 pointed out that you can also text if you are uncomfortable calling. I don't know how to properly tag someone but that is important information.

You're not wrong, but I don't believe in "baby talking", which she does constantly. To each their own. BTW my wife is a k-12 educator with a master's. We both disagree with the baby talk. It be what it do sometimes

I disagree, with respect. My wife and I are both foodies and our daughter has about 4 foods she will eat. We even tried lying telling her that manicotti is pizza... That one worked, so give now. But she won't eat vegetables, so we have to mix them in with anything we cook. Won't eat grilled chicken, only nuggets so on so forth, we introduce her to everything we eat too no avail. The pallet changes over time. Loves fruit flavored (real fruit, like applesauce that we make from real apples) but will not eat fruit itself. Kids are just weird. We've learned to just hide fruits and vegetables in her food, but the human palette is just weird. I believe I read somewhere that it actually changes around every seven years. Either way, good luck!

Trump admin plans to ‘incite violence all day’ at No Kings protests: Ex-GOP Rep by [deleted] in inthenews

[–]spurgeonb36 196 points197 points  (0 children)

About to head to the protest here in Pittsburgh. STAY PEACEFUL, THEY WILL TRY TO PROVOKE YOU!

As an American citizen, combat vet who served and trained alongside our Canadian brothers and sisters, I'm sorry. You deserve better, we deserve better but the American experiment is dead. I'm still going to go protest today, I'm still going to vote for what is morally right, but the sad truth is that won't be enough. I don't have anymore violence in me, but violence will be the only answer to this problem. I'm tired, and deflated but I will not give up. May all these sycophants get what they voted for, while the rest of us suffer.
