    The Collapsing Healthcare System in the US

    heron replied to KalipsoRed21's topic in General Nursing

    Not so sudden. Many sources I've read trace current ills back as far as 1973 when for-profit health insurance became legal. I graduated and was licensed in 1972, so I've had a bedside view since the...

    heron replied to SHH's topic in General Specialties

    I read that story. My heart hurts for the parents. I can barely stand to think about losing my son - and he's a grown man with kids of his own. As a hospice nurse, I can understand the nurses'...

    Just saw a tiktok video in which a man explicitly threatened armed revolution if the electorate chooses Biden. "Give me what I want or I'll shoot you." I am so DONE with

    I, too, am old, fat and disabled, and my friends think I'm way too nice. Does that give me a pass to point a gun at LEOs executing a search warrant after I made multiple threats to assassinate the...

    More like chickens looking for somewhere to roost. It would be interesting to know how many of the dead and displaced are indigenous Islanders. Hawaiian real estate is pretty valuable

    Frankly, I don't care about his religion and seriously doubt that he actually thought about anything all. I see him as rage junkie chasing his high. I'm done with the threats and intimidation....
