Oh hell no I voted Bernie in the primary and then I got my ass out and voted for Hillary in the general and I voted straight Democrat aaaaall the way down so I do not even want to hear it, I even voted to lose all the local R judges too

Hold onto the hand grips and hum Xenu until the name comes to you, pretend yoga is anything but stretching, drink until you’re blind, blend up some grass and fruit, go to church, it’s all different names for the same shit basically.

Even with responsible use, a patient with chronic pain who has to take opiates regularly is going to form an addiction because that’s how it works. Overdose is a sign of abuse, but addiction or dependence is not necessarily drug abuse.

You mentioned “when your pain issues started”. Chronic pain by definition has to have been around a long time, so by that point in the conversation there was no way of knowing it’s chronic for you.

Well yeah, generally when a pain issue just starts is when you can treat it with heat, nsaids, physical therapy, etc. That’s the worst possible time to just throw opioids at it and any doctor that does without ruling out other treatments needs to be fired.

I was a pharmacy tech for ten years and saw all sides to the opioid disaster, from people suffering with severe addiction to people who were on effective pain management programs to people with dismally inadequate pain control. I left pharmacy and got people’s chemo covered by their insurance until I said fuck it and…

Gonna be a cold day in hell before I start putting on underwear

It’s important to note that a lot of interventions taken in the ED would not be appropriate to take at home. In case something goes wrong, you can’t fix it at home the way they can at the hospital.

Yep, it’s as simple as that, math doesn’t exist, you got it all figured out.

Uhhhh you learned the wrong lessons from all that, you were meant to learn how to tell people no.

Because she didn’t know the answer, and maybe she wanted Cho to buck up or shut up. Sometimes instead of saying anything constructive, Cho goes for the laugh (newsflash she’s a comic and likes attention). Swinton probably figured she’d give her attention and get her preferred solution to the problem, which turned out…

It wouldn’t be her job if she were just living her life. What you may fail to realize is that Margaret Cho has been very outspoken about this and is actually a professional consultant for television in addition to her long entertainment career. She is not your Korean friend that you’re asking to represent all of Asia.…

I’d be with you if Swinton had asked anyone but Margaret Cho. She is so vocal about representing Asians and Koreans specifically. How can one person represent an entire group of people or a culture? I don’t know, ask Margaret! She is the Korean authority!

Wise Mentor is a trope and lazy characterization but not inherently racist, and making that character the original Wise Asian Mentor would have been a racist caricature. Does any film deserve brownie points for NOT playing into racist stereotypes? No! There should have been more Asian characters in the movie, but…

People say justice when they want state-sponsored revenge. You people talk about what criminals deserve like you have some higher ability to judge wrongness than the rest of us but you couldn’t see your own bloodlust if it spat in your face. Congrats, you’re alive. You’re not different from any of the 7 billion other…

It’s wrong for the state to execute him, it will cost the state more money on appeals if he is sentenced to death because he has an idiot for a lawyer, and these fucking neo Nazis are going to come out of the woodwork about how poor pitiful white men are being oppressed by all this political correctness.

Poor Aubrey, so mad they took away his dresses and high heels that he can’t even spell.

Lol I spent the first couple days of the event in a resort in Hawaii. I’ve yet to see a single Santa Hat, that’s pretty touristy.

Student loan debt is only more crippling because it was specifically excluded from bankruptcy protections.

If it didn’t involve a trans woman, odds are she wouldn’t be kept in solitary confinement 23 hours a day.
