In fairness, it did re-start on it’s own before they could do anything.

But that was my question…

“None of the monitors went off… well, I don’t THINK they went off…”

“Oh, yeah, they went off at the nurses station…”

Apparently “pauses” like that aren’t uncommon for folks who just had their 2nd heart attack. Since then I’ve had shorter ones in the 4-5 second range. All when I’ve been asleep.

Doc says it’s not concerning unless it happens when I’m awake and the only thing I’ve had like that is either skipped beats or extra beats, which I gotta say, feels super fucking weird. I have passed out or nearly passed out a couple of times just trying to walk down a hallway.

All that being said, yeah, we go out of our way to avoid that hospital now.

Depends on how much you care about statistics…

Well, that’s what the implant is for. Battery’s good for 3-4 years.

Back in January, in the hospital, my heart stopped for 8 seconds. I was asleep, I had no idea. I woke up and was fiddling on my phone, nurse comes in:

“Were you asleep about an hour ago?”

“Yeah, why?”

“Your heart stopped for 8 seconds.”

“Um… thank you? I don’t know how to respond to that…”

I have a heart monitor connected to my phone now, continuously monitoring. It’s stopped a few more times since then, 4 seconds here, 5 seconds there. Doc says not to worry about it, no cause for a pacemaker yet.

Of course former law enforcement is going to own a Glock and have time on it. That’s pretty much a given. They even have an officer purchase program.

That would be outside the scope of moderation, but DMs have a report option that goes to the Admins of their instance and your instance.

Admins can and do ban people for that. As a mod, I’ve had to report more than a few DMs myself.

Not really an article, content is in video format which is not allowed.

As I’ve stated before, we’ve discussed Monk’s account between the admins and the mods, the consensus opinion is that they have shitty opinions, but having shitty opinions is not a TOS violation.

We’d be able to pay for a better fact checker than MBFC.

To be clear, MSN IS allowed, it’s just that last link made it look like they were claiming credit for a W.E. article. Not your fault.

OK, this is weird. I’m removing this but I want everyone knowing why:

This is a link on MSN, which passes through to the Washington Examiner.

WE does not have the same credibility rating as MSN, it’s significantly lower, and has more bias:

If it had just been the WE link, I’d allow it, but gathering up a false “high credibility rating” when that doesn’t exist for WE is a problem.

There’s a difference between seeing things differently and claiming to not see a difference.

A 2nd Trump term will actively injure more people, Americans and non-Americans alike, than a Harris term. Full stop.

Pretty sure that’s his brand identity. ;)

All sealioning is trolling but not all trolling is sealioning. ;)

Removed, civility.

In fairness, West votes aren’t going to be enough to make a difference anyway.

The logical work-around is for supporters to write him in, ignoring the ballot line that won’t be counted.

But still, write ins are insignificant.

If you can’t tell the difference between Harris and Trump, your political opinion is 110% invalid.

Guess he doesn’t want the help then!

Hmmm… lesse… in coke units?

According to here, about 1kg. :)

“seemed political" but at the same time, refuses to take the call.

How do you know the call is political if you refuse to take it?
