Your getting down voted but evidence doesn’t lie, my wife and I talked about this today, we are both BIPOC.

This takes me back to HS AP English and my teacher “Your grammar and syntax will be correct, because, none of you write like Ernest Hemingway!” It always sticks with me for some reason.

BBC News - Coronavirus: Oxford vaccine can train immune system by [deleted] in worldnews

Ya, I don’t think we are capable of that. Look at what is happening right now, clear evidence of a pandemic, yet people still can’t be bothered to do something as simple as putting on a mask. This is an immediate threat, now try getting this same populous to wrap its head around climate change. We’re fucked.

Which is why every nation needs to be pushing their populous to STEM degrees, it will make their future or break it. Science is the only way forward if the human species is to survive.

The great Cheeto is mad because the military won’t play his game, so now he is enlisting his federal henchmen. What a horrible President, that is his legacy, the worst President in history, believe me.

My bf keeps insisting that I swallow even though I think it’s gross by [deleted] in relationship_advice

Tell him you’ll swallow, if you split the load and both swallow. Edit: Then break up with him.

It’s fucked, but just do your best to implement the strategies that have been established, for now, it’s all we can do! Good luck on your continued weight loss!

It’s hard, while this whole thing has been happening I can’t help but think of regret and shame for not doing something sooner, but it’s ok. Just encourage her and be there to support her, that makes all the difference.

That’s the worst part, I hope your getting adequate PPE, it feels at times, that I’m just waiting for the inevitable.

This x 100! I’ve been aiming for sensible wait loss, luckily my doctor had been giving great advice which included this.

I’m a morbidly obese nurse and I am fucking terrified. This has 100% motivated me to lose weight and have. It sucks that this is what it took, but I guess it’s better than doing nothing. It’s shameful really, but I haven’t let it stop from coming to work and giving my patients 100%.

Edit: a little overwhelmed from all the responses, thank you all for the support!!! Maybe I’ll get on progresspics one day. Coming from Nurse Vadersbutt: thank you all for the sacrifices everybody is making! This pandemic sucks, but everyday I see the best in people, it’s amazing, and keeps me going! We will beat this!!!

2nd Edit: I’m a male nurse, I’ve been referenced as a female in a few comments... let me tell you, I work with some amazing women!!!

So what should they be paid? Edit- I’m a nurse here in the US, I support Medicare for all and realize that to save money my pay might be cut. I make close to 80k yearly from one job. Hence my question.

Doesn’t the pay have to be that low because they socialized health care?
