What? From what my LA friends tell me there are still a lot of the fully automatics there.

And if you say Uno you get evicted from the game or thrown in the kitchen to do dishes while they confirm your status.

Fun anecdote:

My friend had to take his kid to the local ER the same time as we took our kid to the childrens hospital 3 hours away. They got to the ER in 15 min. We had already been given the "don't know what's wrong" from that ER the previous week.

We arrive, get taken immediately back, get a presumed diagnosis by the nurse 10 minutes later, and a referral in 3 days to an orthopedic surgeon. We leave, call our friend to check on his kid (broken arm). Still in the waiting room. 3 hours later, still waiting.

We call again just as we are pulling in home. His kid is now getting a cast.

Unless my kid is near death, we travel 3 hours for ER trips because the local hospital is unorganized as hell (and also assumes every patient, child or not, must have a drug screen)

You're still a product of your upbringing. I was Conservative, like my whole damn family. I in recent years woke up. I never did hateful acts, but I had the thoughts. Sometimes I wonder if people can see the filth on me, see that I made racist jokes, etc. I'm teaching my child differently. She can go to church or synagogues, or whatever. I've told her we'll go if she wants to. But she also knows how I feel about my days in church, and she remembers the days when she was younger and what she overheard. She respects religion, but hasn't shown any inclination towards it. (Baptist churches, btw, in a Bible belt area, where people didn't fight much about desegregation only since extreme minority until the 90s.)

As fucked as it was and they just said, "no home for you now on your way out." They did do better than our first Cherokee concentration camp prisoners... which is where Hitler got the idea (our was it Goebbels?)

But he was in fact antisemetic. Yes, I know it was the rage back then.

I know who's an immigrant. Unless your name is like "Wind on Water" when translated, you're an immigrant.

Oh no, we were promised no more votes would be needed after 4 years. We'll likely see Don Jr. in a few though after the heart attack...

Second ooinion (lemmy.world)
 

Not 100% in this one. I live in WV, USA. I want a second opinion, since the leaves on this are larger than what my PlantNet shows it is. I wont say what so no bias. It popped up and isn't a native.

A place to share (self.vasectomy)

So after leaving Spez's toilet, I decided since I found a helpful group there I'd start one here to maybe help other guys the way that one helped me.

Story time: my wife had pre eclampsia with our daughter. She came close to dying and my girl was born premature by 4 weeks. Fast forward a few years and abortion (even high risk) is no more. My wife is very likely to die unless a pregnancy goes 100% perfect. So we decided snippy snip time. I had held off cause surgeries scare me shitless. Anyhow, most guys who had it done said it wasn't that bad. I prepared - tylenol, ibuprofen, 3 bags of peas, stupid strap thing, did a shave. I went in nervous despite the 2 pills of Valium. Felt slightly buzzed but walked myself upstairs while my family parked the car. Went in, 15 min later I finally got to go back (buzz was wearin off), they prepped me, gave me 2 shots, 15 min later done. I gotta say though, there were moments where it felt my balls were in a vice. The sharp pains could be managed with more anesthesia, but those weren't that bad. Then doc grabs my strap, helps me out, then waves bye. That was yesterday. It was an hour drive back, no pain. I iced when I got home anyway, relaxed. No work today or tomorrow, so lots of chilling. Still no pain really, nor bruising. I am taking ibuprofen to make sure I'm good, but just 4 total per day. Only pain I get is occasional stings, like sweat bees. So so far so good.

Day 4 Doing good still. Itchy as hell cause the shave. Been doing normal homestead stuff. Had to reinforce our henhouse due to a racoon breach and kill off one chicken. Probably doing more than I should but no pain at all now, haven't had any painkillers for 48 hours now. I've been sleeping on the couch so I can lay on my back and snore away (laying sideways puts on pressure and that does hurt a smidge). Weekend is up tomorrow and I start my 10 hr shifts sitting in a chair all day taking phone calls. Should be fine, though.
