Didn’t Trump already say…
Yeah. But what’s that got to do with anything he’s actually going to do?
20 May 1990, Kenyon College, Gambier, Ohio, USA Cartoonist Bill Watterson created the comic strip Calvin and Hobbes I have a recurring dream about Kenyon. In it, I'm walking to the post office on the way to my first class at the start of the school year. Suddenly it occurs to me that I don't ha
How are you all handling "allowance" in this day and age?
I pretty much only use cash for buying things on FB marketplace, so the idea of giving my kids cash to teach them about responsible spending and value etc seems antiquated. But giving them a debit card seems too abstract. What are you all doing?
Thanks for sharing this. My gut reaction is that that these attacks were unreasonable and careless in who they impacted and should be criminal. But it’s very interesting to read an analysis of the actual law - even if I don’t agree with it
That seems unusually mature and consumer-oriented for an ISP
These days with how tied to your identity email is, using an ISP provided email is like self-imposed vendor lock-in though. A friend who uses an ISP provided email just switched ISPs and it caused havoc - bank logins, power company logins, etc
Two people walked away uninjured after the plane they were in crashed and burst into flames upon landing at the Qualicum Beach Airport, according to fire crews.
Yeah that’s reasonable. A reasonable person could see how that could look like something life threatening until examined by a health care provider.
Knee pain you’ve had for a month? Had a panic attack yesterday? Pain because you just had surgery and don’t want to take your pain medications? This is more what I’m talking about

Does Tidal pay artists better?
You’re right, it is possible to reject someone’s belief while letting them pray in a public space.
However, when you tangle the prayer into governance you send a signal that the religious practice will, on some level, inform how the people are governed. And that’s not okay in our society.
I couldn’t have answered the question if you didn’t ask it.
No no. Broken bones would probably be Orange. Some bone breaks are potentially life threatening by themselves (pelvis, femur, and skull/spine obviously), and then if they break through the skin that really changes things. Part of this that the call-taker and dispatcher make an informed assessment on the situation based on the information given over the phone.
BC uses this exact system and has for some time. However, they haven't implemented Green calls yet so they get lumped into Yellow. An example of a Green call might be more like "I accidentally left my daily medication in my pocket when I was doing laundry and the only pharmacy in town isn't open until 2 days from now and I have no way to get to the hospital by myself".
Everyone's got different life situations so scenarios like that one really do come up and they do need caring for, but any reasonable person would agree that they're in a different category than "I think I'm having a heart attack"

What’s the definition of a “car” here? Do pickups and vans count?
I bet some set of those will be excluded and if that’s the case this will have a side effect of driving further adoption in those larger vehicles.
EMS 20/20
That’s pretty much it. For anyone curious they take user submitted EMS calls and review/critique them. I find it funny as hell but their humor certainly won’t be for everyone. And if you’re not even tangentially working near the EMS field it might not be interesting at all.
