  1. That’s where you drew the line? Funny, I would’ve thought that was the one thing that would resonate with Trump
  2. I don’t really think it’s a lack of wisdom that prevents people from embracing Trump and his values... This isn’t a battle between Democrats and Republicans. It’s a battle between people...
  3. Of course you do. We expect nothing less. In the 2016 election we saw plenty of posts claiming that Clinton suffered from debilitating brain injuries and... syphilitic chancres.. and... some other...
  4. Yes, every time I think of Trump I always picture him holding an olive branch, positively glowing with benevolence and his cup runneth over with love of mankind...
  5. Nazi-esque Black Lives Matter Protesters

    ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? I just love to see a fallacious argument or claim being so elegantly refuted by use of quality logic. Hats off
  6. Nazi-esque Black Lives Matter Protesters

    As other posters have already pointed out, this isn’t new. It made the rounds quite a while ago. And yes, it’s the Russians’ taxpayer money hard at work.. Do you know why it was so easy to...
  7. Nazi-esque Black Lives Matter Protesters

    (When you quote a post that you intend to reply to, don’t write your reply inside the quote box/frame. When you do it looks like the person you quoted is said what you are replying. Makes it hard...
  8. Nazi-esque Black Lives Matter Protesters

    This is rather disappointing. It’s starting to resemble the feeble-minded attempts at psy-ops commonly seen in the comments to Youtube clips ? Honestly. It was hardly a resounding victory in...
  9. Nazi-esque Black Lives Matter Protesters

    I’ve noticed that this narrative has lately been increasingly promoted on many different forums/social media. It’s a pattern. And I assume it’s a coordinated strategy. To what end? Are you...
  10. Nazi-esque Black Lives Matter Protesters

    Oh, I don’t think he’s joking at all when he says ”12 more years”....
  11. Nazi-esque Black Lives Matter Protesters

    Okay.. So a couple of posts back you were musing about how naturally it would come to you to harm or kill another, or more likely, several human beings (no second thoughts or qualms by the sound of...
  12. Nazi-esque Black Lives Matter Protesters

    Just a side note, but I am curious if this means that you also think that Wisconsin will or should outlaw open carry of long guns after out-of-state wannabe cops travel there and patrol the streets...
  13. Nazi-esque Black Lives Matter Protesters

    Mow them down LAWS ?? This is quite frankly one of the most disturbing things I’ve read on this site. I visit London on a regular basis and in mid-March of 2017 I spent a week there,...
  14. Violent Riots are helping Trump

    (partial quote) This is entirely in line with my personal experiences. Having worked protests, including some that escalated to rioting, this is usually the case. The majority are there to...
  15. Violent Riots are helping Trump

    2000 Gore 47.83% Bush 47.61% D +0.22 2004 Kerry 49.70% Bush 49.32% D +0.38 2008 Obama 56.22% McCain 42.31% D +13.91 2012 Obama 52.83%...
  16. What are they teaching?

    I don’t have much time at the moment so I haven’t read all the posts made since I last visited. But this one really caught my eye. I agree wholeheartedly. We all aim to practice evidence-based,...
  17. First Confirmed Case of COVID-19 Reinfection

    Thanks for posting this! I don’t think anyone of us are overly surprised. So far we’re never seen a coronavirus which results in life-long immunity after an infection. We know that the two more...
  18. I hated being a nurse for the first time

    First of all, I’m really sorry you had such a rough shift! You absolutely did the right thing when calling a rapid response ?? There’s so much going on with that patient. Low hemoglobin AND low...
  19. Emergent, is there a reason why you were being so frugal with specific details, and speaking only in very sweeping and general terms in your initial post, when you actually had a very specific case in...
  20. What are they teaching?

    I agree, I think it’s pretty strange. Unless the LTC nurse also had additional experience from a higher acuity setting that we don’t know about, I would think she’d need more than a ”very...
  21. What are they teaching?

    What I was asking of you was: In your opinion, is being able to insert a foley catheter from day one more important than being research literate? I was trying to figure out what your shaking your...
  22. What are they teaching?

    You are of course under no obligation to answer what I’m actually asking. I’m just surprised by the reticence I’m sensing. It’s a pretty straightforward question. I guess I’ll have to live...
  23. What are they teaching?

    Thanks for your response. You’re correct, I’m Scandinavian. I have some grasp of how nursing education is in the U.S., but it’s pretty basic and comes mostly from what I’ve read through the...
  24. What are they teaching?

    I understand what you’re saying, and it’s not as if I think APA is the be-all and end-all of nursing. I don’t. But my question is really simple and I’m just curious to see how some other...
  25. What are they teaching?

    If I’m honest I’m disappointed by your answer. Since your post that I quoted and responded to was a direct response to RNperdiem’s post ”I just returned to school. So far I have learned a lot...
