Me landing on Gleba.

Borders are absolutely in the star Trek utopia. Everything has borders. What we do about those borders is the difference.

Each quadrant, solar system, etc has borders. These are even more arbitrary as the current state, county, and country borders across our world tend to follow natural terrain or longitude and latitude. None of these exist in space. But the quadrant borders are as easy to cross as for me to drive to my next US state. However, the Kardassian border is not so easy to cross, just like it's not so easy for me to cross into North Korea.

Borders are not the inherent issue here. Conflict is the inherent issue, and borders are how we try to minimize that conflict.

Agreed. Not a fun experience.

I did that math one time on my 36hr shift solo covering the trauma/surgical ICU. It came out to less than minimum wage. And the current rate for residents for my program is less than $60k, which is higher than when I was a resident.

Lol, yeah, that started reason doesn't hold up well. Your basic urine drug screen (UDS) will flag benzos (midazolam in this article), natural opiates (not fentanyl and those derivatives), cocaine, barbiturates, marijuana, amphetamines, and I think that's it. The only ones likely to cause fetal withdrawal are benzos and opiates. Works well enough for benzos, but withdrawals are pretty rare. The most common are opiates, but the most common opiates won't show up on the UDS. So why use it?

The latter is called "doctor shopping" and it absolutely happens.

The goal of the advertisement is to have the patient be interested, not the doctor. Admittedly some doctors are not up to date on the latest obscure cutting edge treatments, so there is some possible benefit. However, most doctors are capable of performing cost benefit analyses and understanding side effects, but when a patient comes in asking for a medication, it definitely tips the scales towards the medication.

Thanks for looking into what I'm clearly too lazy to do! A quick lazy Internet search shows that Biden's cabinet appears to be mostly "only" millionaires according to this.

That article also compares Biden's to Trump's previous cabinet. And references Obama's. I would like to note that framing this all as "measly millionaire" is so disconnected from the remainder of America.

Seeing as politics is always a bunch of self serving in-crowd of rich folks, I'd really like to see this for the previous few presidents to know if this is a unique thing to Trump.

Man, this is a really bad precedent to be setting. First pardoning family members, then handing out pardons for "future crimes" to political allies. Imagine if Trump considered doing this shit, how poorly that would be received.

Seems like a quick way to make a farce of the pardon system.

When the moon hits your eye, like a big pizza pie, that's CMV.

Dang, I don't think I have recommendations here. I've had done mobile issues on Android, but desktop has always had my history intact. Sorry I can't be more helpful!

Desktop or phone? What OS?
