It would be more like calling someone a chick, if being used in that context.

It's such a double standard for the large majority of these people. It's God's will that a baby should be born to suffer and die, but it's not God's will that they die of a heart attack, diabetes, or a simple infection.

If they really believed in God's will, they wouldn't be seeking medical care at all, for they were destined to suffer and die as well.

It's despicable, what they are imposing on these families. If you believe in miracles, put yourself in the hands of your God and wait for one yourself, asshats.

Wait yalls had that many windows? These look nice. Ours looked like someone gutted a corrugated metal double wide and put a divider wall in the middle to make 2 "classrooms." There was 1 larger window on the backside, and 1 door in the front of each room.

The real question is if your grandma, on the other side, is from the same generation as your dad. Then shit gets weird.

If the money doesn't show, you owe me, owe me, owe.

I mean the covid vaccine even gave me a fever and overall muscle soreness. It felt like I had a mild cold. Only the last Moderna didn't have that effect on me. Other vaccines I've had typically only make it so I can't lift my arm for a couple days.

I'm not talking crazy talk here like microchips or altering genetics or crap. But for many people I know, the first couple vaccines gave em the ol 1-2. I still got the boosters and I've had better reactions every time, but this older person didn't want to go past the original set.

The older people I know won't get their covid shots because of the side effects. They'll get a whole bunch of other vaccines, like everyone other vaccine in the world, just not the covid vaccine. They just get knocked down, and are out of commission for a couple of days.

I try to convince them, but they haven't offically caught covid yet, although they was one suspicious time prior to lockdown where they lost taste and fully believe it was covid, but it's disconcerting thinking that if the vaccine hits so hard, what would actual covid do. Especially, when they have at least 2 risk factors for severe covid.

Omg, I ate the onion.

I sat there like...is this real. Wtf. Had to go back to the my main page before I realized where I was.

I'm using a new app. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.

Just need to stop transfers 5 years before you apply for medicaid. Easy peasy, lol.

Nothing so formal. More like just the boss of a construction company not telling people if the person at the desk they were loitering at the day before called in sick cause they tested postive for covid. They didn't want people being conscientious about not infecting anyone else because the ~~spice~~ cash must flow.

Good. Nowadays, theres a degree requirement for so many fields that didn't used to require one. The most competent workers I know, don't have degrees. All the new people with degrees have no clue what they're doing, yet they get paid more and are treated better. It's painful to watch the best performers get passed over, while the people with degrees are held on golden pedestals while they actively drive production into the ground. Especially, when their degree isn't even for the field they're presently employeed in.

While certain jobs should require degrees, there's a huge amount of positions where practical and hands on experience would (and should) trump a degree, any day.
