Concur with you… And I live in CA where we do vote Democrat. While I would like to disagree, even Democrats I know veer away from politicians viewed as “too progressive”. They fear that true progressive agendas would alienate others within politics and result in nothing getting accomplished. For example, some love the idea of Bernie but believe hes too idealistic, “wishy washy” and that his plans are too. Too much for others within Congress to get on board and ally on the goals. If this is already coming from some Democrats in CA, I’m not surprised by swing states…

I 100% believe you. We may not like the reality but its there.

Nurse manager. I browse when I wake and during dinner. Sometimes during work breaks. I don’t really post. Mostly comment. Doesn’t take long to comment

Do you play No Mans Sky alone or with friends? I picked it up for my deck but havent tried it out yet… Unfortunately one of the reasons why I have a deck is my PC can’t handle some games

I bought Vampire Survivors since it was slightly discounted and have only heard rave reviews about it… I sank 7 hours in my first day lol!!

Picked up all the DLCs too. Imo worth the money to support the developer

Maybe he can live on his own as he may still be independent with other activities of daily living like cooking, walking to the bathroom, be able to put on clothes, etc.

Not being able to drive is one thing but maybe there are food delivery services, Uber/Lyft/Taxis and other non medical transportation, and for medical emergencies Life Alert, Ambulances.

Just saying there is a lot we do not know.

Dungeon Crawler Carl 4, The Gate of the Feral Gods by Matthew Dinniman. Its just good fun and the sound effects are amazing. Though I think Carl sounds too old for a 27 year old.

It has also been a good break after Pet Sematary by Stephen King.

In addition to all the above, I found a weighed blanket really helped me. Make sure your room is very dark, pitch black. If it is not, upgrade your blinds or a sleep mask. I got one that’s simple and cotton and it works wonders.

Now its winter I also have a heated blanket.

Mold because I’m American

I’m really scared for future elections when the GOP has a candidate that is actually charismatic or articulate…

I went without Prime for >1 year. I just online shopped directly from manufacturer if I can and paid shipping if free shipping not available. I minimized use of amazon only if I had $35 in my cart for the free shipping.

However, I know I am privileged enough to do so.

I honestly would encourage everyone not to have Prime though. Its like what $150+ now for a year? Save that money and wait until your cart is $35. If you cannot wait, you can pay for shipping (assuming $7) x20+ times before you make up price of that $150 for Prime.

Thank you for your advocacy! Agree its a whole team involved in patient care

Its still insane how many active users they have compared to Mastodon. BTW its 500+ million to Mastodons 1 million. Pretty insane number comparison

Besides overhead I wonder if they are including staff like case managers or something to assist these individuals in adjusting? I hope so. Transitioning out of homelessness is important too.

The article did speak about “subcontractors”

This. I now almost never buy beef jerky unless its SMC Jerky because I tried their beef jerky once 10 years ago at like a farmers market or something. I almost exclusively eat these and Ajays Montana Bananas. For SMC Jerky, Honey Glazed thin cuts are my fav and Ajay’s their teriyaki is the best.

Social workers are all recommended to have a personal therapist for themselves. And its possible for the personal therapist to also have social work degree

This. At least there is an attempt and you’re not left wondering. Rejection also isnt a bad thing. Its honesty. Rather someone be honest with me then dwell on “could be” “maybes” and just false hope as someone down the thread mentioned.

I think the larger point is that teachers are having to pay for their own supplies as well which are necessary like books, art supplies for younger populations, paper, writing utensils, etc. Its a well known fact that unfortunately teachers have to do this as some schools are not providing these materials/supplies.

Very different than a show and a TCG

Between the two, Flesh and Blood looks like long term would have more staying power. They are currently having international and local events. Looks very cool… And tempting haha. I love TCGs too but it is an investment and time consuming…
