I’ve seen crazy patients, crazy coworkers, and crazy coworker’s relations trying to start shit causing the need for security to be called. Seriously hospitals are a concentrated cesspit of people experiencing high emotions/stress at the worst time in their lives. I remember the panic buttons being installed almost 2 decades ago after an incident where a coworker’s partner showed up one night and beat the shit out of them in the middle of the lab.
I used to work in a hospital laboratory. You bet your butt we have panic buttons that call security to our spot when needed. And notice I said when and not if, that’s because they do get used once in a blue moon.
My dad gave me his old Panasonic TV that he bought back in '08 with the Bush stimulus money. That big fucker is a bitch to move and puts out an ungodly amount of heat, but it’s still going strong and I refuse to get rid of it.
This is the snake equivalent of breeding brachycephalic dogs. It’s bad for the animal and bad for the hobby.
Gas based equipment won’t break if you turn it off but liquid (HPLC) based equipment doesn’t take kindly to drying out or salting up. It really depends on what mobile phases you’re using.
My husband recently found this gem of a cooking channel that we both love. Chef Jean Pierre He’s hilarious and the food looks amazing.
The bacon and cigarettes time travel bit was my absolute favorite.

If it’s any consolation I am seeing bridged account for Mastodon over there. I think people will get more exposure to the wider Fedverse while they’re there.
Me too. We can stay strong together.
You are in for a real treat when you make it to the second game!
I’m losing it at doing the dishes 😂
So I ask Bert (my grey) every night “Are you ready?” before putting him to bed and I never really thought about it until the day he screamed it back at me as I was leaving for work one morning. I was in fact not ready at all and it was brutal coming from him.
"The reasoning for bringing in AI tools to monitor patients is always that it will make life easier for us, but in my experience, technology in healthcare rarely makes things better. It usually just speeds up the factory floor, squeezing more out of us, so they can ultimately hire fewer of us. " - yup and there’s not much we can do about it without harming a lot of people.
Same boat my friend. Never ever had a xitter account but I made a Bluesky account last week to check things out. My husband deleted his Twitter account quite a while back and has been sorely missing seeing people he followed. I tried getting him here but he really doesn’t understand the whole set up. So I’m trying to convince him to join Bluesky. I have no idea what I’m doing over there but the folks there are much like we were here in the beginning in that everyone is helping each other learn. I do think that the platform will serve as a good bridge to get people learning about Federated platforms. We all have to start somewhere.
I feel like Fantasy Life did this the best though. I absolutely loved this game and wish it would get a port to PC.
Makes me think of Molly. 
Yes a few of my male friends did. One was typical genx “meh” and the others just hated Kamala because she’s a woman. Honestly it’s disgusting.
I went to community college for my first two years and only had adult friends. It was exactly what I needed at the time because they shared their life experience with me and it was immensely helpful in making my own good decisions. Now in my 40s my husband and I are the older friends in our game group who do the same for our 20-something friends. We even convinced one of them to get his GED and had a big celebration for him once he got it when his own family blew him off over it. You have to make your own community where you can and older people outside of family have value too.
