Does my hate count....I lived in SW near Gessner and 10, and also Richmond and the loop on the Best Buy side.... I couldn’t leave fast enough. Living in the DM[V] I see how much Houston does actually suck on all levels. Especially public transit.

No damn way. Unless you are damn near in Waller Co. Nothing near 290 is that cost to sq ft. efficient in Harris Co. Well unless it’s near Antoine and 45 (Experience....living in Houston for 15 years and just moved in 2012)

What part of the New Testemant endorses slavery? — Ephesians 6:5 Used ad nauseum by slave owners. We can throw in Colossians 3:22-25 just for good measure.

So blame the Africans for the malicious Quaker/Reformist/Protestant/Anglican funded and founded slave trade. Gotcha. So the entire slave trade was not funded and propagated by European Christians and upheld with Church services teaching slaves that their proper place in humanity was as slaves because the BIBLE said…

Soooo you’re just gonna conveniently leave out slavery and the middle passage?

As a lifelong Louisiananan......I salute this post!!!

As a nurse I wholeheartedly agree. I got off the floor and got into Nursing Informatics and Health Information Systems. Best career pivot I ever made. I have no plans to retire early and I’m 39. I think they are basing this with a heavy bias towards floor/clinical nurses who do burn out very early and often.

Yeah.... I believe that the safest temp for a rare steak is 129.

You should not that on stock Android (Marshmallow user w/ Nexus 6) that this is found in the settings under display. If it’s not working for you check there. Slider may need to be ticked.

It works on the Nexus 6. You have to turn it on in the settings under display

Where in South Texas is the low in the 20s? I lived in Houston for 15 years and NEVER saw lows consistently in the 20s. Now the highs I will give you that.

If asking the public to participate in a public health crisis through personal responsibility is a lecture in morality...I am guilty as charged.

It’s not shaming. And as an NP you should know better than that. No I wouldn’t deny an addict Narcan, because addiction is a disease and mental illness, we both know that. Bad choices and reckless behavior is not a disease unless the DSM-V has been updated.

And I stated previously that yes, I would over emergency…

As both an ED and ICU nurse I have more compassion that you’d imagine. But there comes a point when advice like this is counter-productive to HIV/AIDS education. Why advocate for the use of condoms and other methods to prevent the spread a still growing epidemic if we are gonna tell people to just ask for PEP which is…

No I don’t give the same speech, but we do advise women to not have unprotected sex again (if not a victim of rape or sexual assault) or begin a contraceptive regimen. Ya know...that birth control thing that has been around for ages. Yes we tell you take some responsibility for the things you do and your body...how…

It’s 2016 and if by now you have no idea how bad HIV and AIDS are, and can be in the 1st World, I have no sympathies for you.

Yes people can be awful. So awful in fact, they fail to take basic responsibility for their own actions/bodies in an age where information about ANYTHING is within palms reach. Then have the…

Thanks. That opening paragraph is one that scares the bejesus out of healthcare workers. You’d be surprised at the amount of people who think the PEP protocol stops them from getting HIV/AIDS and they ask for it ALL THE TIME.

“After unprotected sex, you know that emergency contraception is possible if you get it in a hurry. Something similar is available for HIV: post-exposure prophylaxis, begun within 72 hours, can reduce the chance of contracting the virus.”

As a nurse...this is a bad idea. While yes the PEP cocktail works it’s not affordable and most if not all insurances do not cover it. And the programs linked to are for those most at risk. This about the most reckless way to prevent contracting HIV. Abstain or Condoms...period. This method is playing Russian Roulette…

I get that, but CMS (Medicaid/Medicare), SSA (Social Security) and a bunch of other gov’t services are based in Baltimore. Not to mention Hopkins and University of MAryland Medical System. Living in No. VA and working in MD it’s amazing the see the income disparity from the District to Baltimore. Especially past…
