  1. I get that and acknowledge that but I am focusing on the whole picture, not just the legacy of peace, justice and equality which has thankfully prevailed. If that makes me a racist and sexist...
  2. I don't wear one and I don't think it's the majority of people where I work. Maybe 20 to 30% are now wearing head scarves. It might be different on units with covid patients. I don't think covid is...

    Is it really this bad every where?

    I can relate to some of the stuff. We transitioned to Epic recently but had mandatory in-person classes on our days off. I live in Florida we act like covid doesn't exist so in-person classes...
  4. I think for me the issue is the angry white men left a legacy and angry white men still have to fight against other angry white men. Not to keep their slaves but to keep their dominance. I know what...
  5. I was at the gym on the treadmill and I noticed on one of the TV's a "breaking news" story on Fox News and it was that Newsom signs controversial bill requiring ethic studies. I didn't have the sound...
  6. They are against what they call Mediaographic literature in schools. I think that might be a discussion as to defining what is Mediaography. But I'm going to disagree that there's pushback...
  7. It's complicated and I do get weary of the racist way people spew out "old white men........." and I agree that saying something equally derogatory about other races and genders would not be allowed....
  8. No, you're fantasizing and making things up. For example, something you made up that isn't true: Their peanut size brains can't accommodate even simple things like interactions or other human...
  9. I went for Bernie and not Biden, so I totally agree with you that big business has a stranglehold on our politicians and country and capitalism has run amok and highly favors the ultra-rich. I've...
  10. I appreciate that you understand that, but I even doubt that the one's spewing out that he said this understand that and if they do, someone else is going to say "Biden said....." and it's going to...
  11. Oh I get it, we have to focus on these two and ignore the others because we need to destroy them and bring them in line before they ruin the country. Rand Paul and McConnel has the same...
  12. I really do wish you would provide links sometimes to clarify what you're talking about. I did hear of the bathroom protest and didn't approve even if it was "peaceful" and not violent....
  13. Practically all of congress is on someone's dole in the big industry sector. Why focus on these two because it suits your agenda? As for Machin's daughter, it was all over the press and then...

    Bill Maher on obesity

    Yes. Funny before I saw your post I edited my post above to add a sentiment about privilege and living in food desserts, areas where there are no healthy lower calorie options. I'm not sure if...

    Bill Maher on obesity

    Maybe not "nursing related" but certainly medical related. I didn't have time to listen to it all but but I got the gist and looking at my covid patients other than one older lady the other...

    Introverted and working in the ED?

    If it's working for you on the floor then it will in the ER. In fact being work focused and not distracted might be an asset. I'm introverted as well, but don't really mind making small talk....

    Bullying

    It's not bullying to ask someone to not to their homework and do their job. I do think part of the problem around here is the tech shortage and they know if for any reason they want to leave they...

    President Biden thread

    F-Biden merchandise like bumper stickers, t-shirts and flags have long been out. Considering people made a statue of a fat small membered Trump, effigies of Obama being hanged, President Bush made...

    President Biden thread

    I think it also happened at a NASCAR event and like I said some concerts, but it's easy to see how one would miss it. I think as word gets out (especially through right wing media as they love this...
  20. I pay my taxes through my escrow with my mortgage company and I think the "ambulance tax" you speak of is part of that. But also there are state and local taxes on the electric bill, the phone bill,...
  21. I didn't get to listen to it. It's good to hear her side. As far as his ethics go, it's capitalistic for sure, but also I guess a fine line between freedom of speech and responsibility. For a while...
  22. That's probably true especially after this latest surge there was no denying the benefits of the vaccine. Of course this doesn't matter to Tucker Carlson and he definitely puts out some anti-vax...

    President Biden thread

    It is a thing actually at sporting events and concerts. https://www.newsweek.com/f-joe-biden-chant-breaks-out-new-york-jets-nfl-game-1635185...
  24. I have to agree. A lot of the conservative news has been very skewed against Fauci and the vaccine. Fox News was just criticizing him the other day when I saw it a snippet. Something about saying...
  25. Yes, unfortunately a whole lot of people did favor freedom over mitigation of covid. This included a whole lot of republicans and businesses owners that were struggling. But it's now 2021 and...
