How’s the demand for nurses? I’ll be finishing up nursing school in less than a year! :D
Or support staff? I’m a surgical tech now, and some of my coworkers (other techs, schedulers - bottom of the medical food chain, but still with specialty experience) feel trapped here by their lack of higher education.
It’s relative to the country - you expatriate from your country of origin, and become an immigrant to a new host country.
Expatriate and emigrate are more or less synonyms.

That’s what I became when the Nazis took over as a result of being overwhelming popular to US voters. Turns out it’s not just a handful of powerful fuckers taking advantage of the rest of us: ‘we the people’ are, for the most part, just evil.

Sweet potato fries are fucking amazing when they’re done right. Usually they’re overly mushy which I think is why they get so much hate, but they’re top tier when the cook knows what they’re doing.
…yeah monkes and all other mammals are fucked right along with us.
Maybe a few tardigrades will survive, and after a few billion more years of evolution they’ll grow up to be less of an asshole than humans did.
8·6 days agoHonestly if I had the means and skills to survive that semi-comfortably, I’d be down for making that an annual tradition.
The last 6 months have been a long 4 years.
6·8 days agoI don’t know how current this is anymore - this has been floating around the internet for at least a couple years, and I have no idea if it’s being updated, but here’s a list of surgeons who will actually respect a woman’s decision to receive a tubal ligation or hysterectomy:
Women who are ‘of childbareing age’ get a TON of pushback from the medical field for wanting to do this, even in the midst of conditions like endometriosis (chronic severe pain in/from the uterus) or even cancer (can fucking kill you).
Word of advice though: DO NOT get a tubal if the idea that it’s reversible is a determining factor. They can try to reverse it (reanastomosis), but there’s no guarantee it will be successful. Get it only if you’re okay with it being 100% permanent. Same goes to any testicle owners considering a vasectomy.

…I think it’s actually about AI, but this is about as theistic as it gets on my personal playlist.
Shockingly prophetic for something from 2016 - as far as our usage goes, it nailed it.
Trump deserves a grave
Graves are to honor the dead. Trump deserves to have his corpse cast into the reservoir of the nearest outhouse and left to rot with the rest of the sewage.
I have to be in an unusually confrontational mood to pull shit like this, but three or four times now when I’ve been bombarded by sales floor hawks, I motioned my hand at them like a Jedi mind trick and said “Adblock.” mid-sentence in their pitch.
No eye contact, never stopped walking. So far it’s got a 100% success rate in stopping the pitch instantly.
Did not know the painter’s name. That said, I stand by the ‘fuck Goya’ when that shitstain of a company is brought up, meme or otherwise.
They’re dissing the company.

The company. They’re affiliated with the bigoted domestic terrorists squatting in the White House.

That’s one of those companies that shouldn’t get another cent from you, ever.
It’s the fried ones that are the problem: crispy = sharp edges = torn bowel = septic shock = dead.
The fresh ones with the squishy exterior should feel much more like a penis going into your ass. Choose the sauce carefully - your entire GI tract has receptors sensitive to spiciness.
Speaking as a tech, I don’t see it much on the job, but the vast majority of nurses in the workforce all went to school before this AI slop shit became a thing. It’s the recent and upcoming graduates you’ll need to be worried about - it’ll be a while before we really start to feel the burn as an entire profession, but it’s coming.
