Here's my answer to on-call requests: no. And if you ask me to clarify my statement, I will answer: no. Because no is good enough, and it's what I negotiated when I took the job. I don't work for employers who can't mana

The entirety of what she did was record keeping. Palliative care is a broad term, but she did not (a) do any diagnosis, (b) prescribe or change any meds, or (c) treat me in any way. She was basically an extension of the case manager. Our mo

It's not exactly the same, but I'm Creole / Cajun and have been living in Texas for almost 9 years now. When I encounter other people of a similar background, I sort of ease back into the way we talk back home, which is to sa

Some of these website-in-apps drive me fucking nuts. They will switch you to the app, ask for validation through email, and then when you go to check the email, it loses your place in its internal browser, sending it back to the login scree

I went into the hospital for shortness of breath but my main issue was fluid accumulation. I had 3 paracenthesis procedures and was hooked up to a drip of Lasic and a catheter bag for 20 days. I didn't even recognize that I was in the

Corporations are just groups of people, and the Constitution says that people have the right to associate. Restricting corporations from donating to campaigns just shifts the donations to wealthy individuals. A proper constitutional amendme

I rode in an Uber home from a rehab hospital recently after a long stay in the ICU. The guy was driving a Land Rover. I was a bit confused to say the least. The wear and tear and depreciation of that vehicle has to be crazy.

I can relate. I am a stubborn person, but I also have childhood trauma that sank its way deep into me. I had a gigantic fear of relaying any negative information to my family because they would often turn it back against me regardless of wh

The only enforcement arm is in the executive branch, and we've already got the VP and Republican senators complaining that judges are ruling against Elon's team and suggesting that he just do what he wants to do anyway. Pam Bondi

A guy I worked for 20 years ago goes on rants on LinkedIn about how he can't find a job as a recruiting manager because of his age and DEI. Maybe if he wasn't such an overt racist crybaby, then he'd have more success at findi

In the US? Not a chance in hell. Especially in rural areas. The only place you'll find tofu even in most suburban areas are at asian restaurants in their soups.

Sometimes the $130 thing is not better. Take barbecue gloves. Yes, you can buy all sorts of varieties. Pitt Boss, Crate and Barrel, and others sell gloves in the $30 range. These gloves have enough heat resistance that you can pull a steel

Ask anyone in New Orleans and they'll tell you that Mondays are for red beans. This is because it was laundry day, and one of the easiest, heartiest, and least labor intensive things that you could cook for a long time with minimal sup

Wonder what the economic benefit of giving away 20K median priced homes would be for the economy versus giving Intel's stockholders an incentive to build the bare minimum in the US.

My grandmother died of a cerebral hemorrhage. It wasn't because of the cholesterol medication she took. It was because she was on blood thinners, was old, and tripped and hit her head on the dresser while preparing for church.
