    Ah, but a few things. We are not in that thread. I did not see your sources until you mentioned them. You have cited nothing here. Now that I read through that thread, a point: your data is...

    Coronavirus Second Wave?

    pixierose replied to sirI's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Well, if granny finds them she can point me in the right direction. I keep that N95 as pristine as possible in that brown bag and use for work only. My hairdresser of all people was the one who...

    Meh. You’re just stirring the pot. I thought you were leaving? While I am for listening to opposing viewpoints, what I’m seeing is you just resorting to incendiary retorts with no true substance....

    Coronavirus Second Wave?

    pixierose replied to sirI's topic in Disaster Preparation

    You know what’s getting bloody old? Being told I should be sitting at home because I’m one of the vulnerable populations so “the rest of society” can get moving. Meanwhile, if other people...

    I don’t know about you, but I got into nursing for the money. But hey, I’ll take my gold star and halo if you’re handing them out. I do think you’re reading the wrong threads, or you are going...

    Living as an older individual with comorbidities

    pixierose replied to Hillbilly RN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    My son thinks Yellowstone erupting is the July event; I say if it goes, it’ll be the end of the year blow out. Our black lab passed away unexpectedly last week. I adored that animal; she was a kind...

    pixierose replied to adventure_rn's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    As a recent example, a poster on another thread clearly stated that she felt unwelcome and uncomfortable due to the racist tones insinuated by another poster. She was ignored and denounced by the...

    COVID in the Break Room?

    pixierose replied to adventure_rn's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I bring my own wipes ... a baggie in my lunch bag. We stagger our breaks. Or if I have time (ha!) I’ll go outside and sit on a bench and eat (but that almost never happens). We are not allowed to...

    If someone says, “hey, your comments really upset me” in real life - I would hope most of us would take a good, hard look at what we said and have that courageous conversation with the individual...

    pixierose replied to adventure_rn's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    It goes both ways. My “liberal” ways, etc have been brought into a discussion (interesting as I am an Independent), when politics *wasn’t* being discussed (I.e., the thread macawake referred to,...

    Will Protests Lead to More COVID Surges?

    pixierose replied to adventure_rn's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Two quotes keep popping into my mind through these weeks ... “Becoming conscious of racism does not mean you are a racist.” - Auliq Ice But ... “The ultimate measure of a man is not where he...

    I see no personal insults in this thread, unless you are thinking of AHWTL. In actuality, I don’t even believe a post has been removed or edited, which has been pretty impressive. No, Daisy and I...

    Will Protests Lead to More COVID Surges?

    pixierose replied to adventure_rn's topic in Disaster Preparation

    It’s like banging my head against a wall. I’d ask again what Trump is doing NOW, but we’ll need to agree to disagree and stop the back and forth, Daisy. I’m a little White girl and that...

    pixierose replied to adventure_rn's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Sigh. Back to Trump and political back and forth. This is why you won’t get it, and probably never will, although I have hope. If we are talking between the two parties, ask yourself - “What has...

    Not able to be with mother with dementia in hospital due to Covid

    pixierose replied to InSchool4eva20's topic in Disaster Preparation

    The policies need to be addressed across the board. It hurts my heart to see my patients with dementia decline, even across the few weeks I may have them. They need someone there to help ground them,...

    Will Protests Lead to More COVID Surges?

    pixierose replied to adventure_rn's topic in Disaster Preparation

    But politicians have shown that they don’t do anything, time and time again - and it’s across parties. Republicans, Democrats. What makes you think this time will be different? And a year from...

    Will Protests Lead to More COVID Surges?

    pixierose replied to adventure_rn's topic in Disaster Preparation

    This struck out at me - “are the cops racist or are some blacks in certain areas more prone to violence. Studies have shown that the latter is true when you break it down.” Should I say that all...
