I mean, what is stopping parade drills at places like children’s hospitals?

Do it once a month, give those kids some magic back in their life.

Children’s hospitals suck, no matter how hard everyone is trying to be upbeat. You don’t get over conversations that include phrases like non-accidental trauma in a NICU. Someone beat the shit out of a baby already in the NICU. Hell holes.

Take a doughnut hole, slice it in half, and sandwich a dollop of ice cream between the halves.

Just a bite, all I need.

I worked in Yellowstone for a season. People are idiots and despite being told that the animals are wild beasts and we’re just visiting their home, they think these animals are tame when they wander into civilization.

They’re not. They never will be.

Being late for work because of wild life is common, and while verified, no one gets shit for it.

One day I had to call my boss and say I’d be late because there was a bison blocking the exit of my employee dorm. She just said be safe and get in when you can. Bison wandered off 5 minutes later and I went into my shift. All good, no further questions.

When the local elks gave birth and nested in Mammoth Hot Springs for the first week of their babies lives, it was super hectic and crazy. The elk moms were vicious. Went to pop out for a smoke during my shift, and rapidly realized the usual spot was no longer friendly. Employee rules were relaxed and smoking in front of the hotel was allowed, briefly, because safety was paramount.

In the same time span, me and a few friends were walking back from the employee pub to our dorms and we ended up getting trapped on the loading dock for the employee cafeteria, because elk don’t climb stairs. We had to be rescued by rangers because we were essentially besieged by a vicious (protective) elk.

But you can’t stop a foreign tourist from putting a baby on top of a wild bison if they don’t understand English. You can just call the local ranger station to send out rangers to try to keep people safe.

As a side note, national parks are FEDERAL land. Everything is handled in a federal court house, with federal charges, and rangers most certainly are federal LEOs. This includes being stupid with the wild life.

Until people learn the definition of fascism, which… well, I’m in a southern state. Most dipshits support fascism as long as it oppresses the people they don’t like.

Please don’t I barely understand subnetting as it is.

My first thought was, “that looks like a surefire way to injure a human and possibly kill a dog.”

Not to mention, it is entirely possible to get home from work, play, and then realize you are now late for work.

Its just engaging on a level that most modern game’s can’t hope to achieve.

Hell, I’ve installed a game (old), then installed mods, then resolved all the mod issues, then launch it to realize I don’t actually want to play it.

Factorio? Mods are easy, and vanilla is enough to keep someone occupied and happy if they lack internet or something.

Its light weight too, it costs me virtually nothing to install it on anything that can run it.

I’m not a dev, but I do some scripting. Mostly in a windows environment professionally, linux for personal reasons.

That being said, AI is great for getting a bulk outline of a script done, and you just gotta tweak a few things.

You still have to know what you’re doing, but it expedites things.

In the US, you can get varying dosages based on a variety of commercial factors.

That being said, 1000mg a dose not to exceed 4000mg in a 24 hour periods is the standard… well, was, its been a while since I was a pharmacy tech.

Something tells me the latter has already occurred.

Those spirochetes are leaving hole like a cork screw in his brain.

I know, a problem that faces every single American, right?

Family Values… yeah, Trump values his families genitals. Look at his “relationship” with his daughter throughout the years.

Work has been difficult, mostly due to coworkers lately.

If I’m blaring Rage, like I have all week, I’m ready to walk or to burn the place down. But I’m a lazy man.

There are people who legitimately can’t take some vaccines for legit medical reasons. For example, I worked in a hospital and was required to get an annual flu shot and it was always an issue. Why? I’m epileptic, and it could trigger a seizure. I never had an issue though, and fought to get the vaccine. Only missed one year with a charge nurse who wouldn’t risk it. I then went and got it on my own. Hospital acquired infections are no joke, and that applies to the staff as well as patients.

But other than that, I agree.

I have an analog clock in my man cave. Its very steam punk in design. It is NOT accurate and is ONLY a decoration piece that gets corrected when I can spare the attention. It runs fast, if anyone cares.

Ultimately, my wife liked it, bought it for me, and put it up. Not gonna upset her over something I really don’t care about.

I’m sorry, I missed this. Reputable link please?

I don’t need more reasons to boycott Ubi, but more gas for the fire.

In my southern portion of the US, I find it better to just let shit slide. Never know who is armed with two short cannons, a .38 snub, and the reason for their lifted truck that has never seen “off” roads.

Hence the term, luxury bones.

I have not, thankfully, worked with too many Lawyers in my adult life.

That being said, I was a child of a government agent. They had a courthouse to fuck put people on trial in house to keep it all quiet.

Lawyers are their for THEM. No one else. I’ve had them spell it out to me as a child because it just seemed evil. For the most part, they are.

You mean Burma? Cause I dig their take on Buddhism.

Worked in Yellowstone.

The bears are smarter than the majority of tourists.

Humans, being able to read and having signs posted in multiple languages for them, choose to ignore the various hazards and blunder through them.

Bears, only rarely, if ever, find themselves in trouble with natural features. And they can’t read the warning signs.
