It’s been a long day, and I chose to drink… so I’ll bite. There’s definitely been what seems an increase in public awareness of narcissism and manipulation, but the “general public”, to me, has taken free reign on what exactly that means. I see a lot of accurate and also complete misinformation regarding those two topics within social media.

It feels all the rage these days, but maybe I’m just getting old. “Opinions are like @$$holes, everyone has one” was a good mantra growing up that I try to apply to most facets of life.

That Chaos ain’t right

That is an atrocious shade of orange for the bears

T&P’s in the chat 😭

Just sent it to mine! I’m awaiting the hug as well

I agree completely. As a fan of a team that will more than likely never make it, getting buried later in the season over the CFP news gets old

I disagree. Bug beer has a light hops taste

I agree now, as foretold

It happens to the best of us. And also those weird times when you think someone is waving/talking to you and they meant someone else

Uhhhh, why to does Washington’s outfit look like the Steelers? Did I miss something?

I hear you on that. They’re pricey and needy things. I’ve been around a lot of cats and I know how you feel on that 😂. I wanted less pets but ultimately lost the battle on that!

Get a mixed breed dog that you think is a lazy lapdog that is actually a highly energetic terrier. That was my motivation to start walking. Less things destroyed 😩

Not trying to troll or creep. I didn’t realize what instance I was on at first. But I read your spelling and my head immediately jumped to the Borgs from Star Trek. Got a solid cackle from me. It’s been a long disappointing day so genuinely, thank you for my laughter. I’ve seen too much RISA maybe. Have a great one

I see your local option and support it. Also shout out to whataburger (patty melt). But I will raise you the Braum’s #6 (if it’s in your area). Also Rosa’s Cafe for drive through Tex mex

Calling 911 is the right way to go. Activating emergency response system. And if you don’t make sure someone else does and tells you they have. So many times people assume someone else called and no one has.

There was a push at one point in time to teach bystander CPR, which focuses on compressions at a rate of 100-120 a minute with a little less focus on landmarks and more “middle of the chest and go”. It also taught that people typically have about 20 minutes of reserve oxygen in their venous system and that compressions continuously increased survivability by keeping the circulation going through compressions. Considering average ems response time in the US, it seemed to reduce confusion and encouraged more community response (not wanting to do mouth to mouth is a fear people have). Not sure if it’s still being taught, but it was fairly well received at the time.

Solid advice. Definitely garage worthy!

Where do micro machines fit in on this scale?

Thanks for the assist!

If you’re in the US (it is the cdc) you can look up healthcare acquired infection rates on the CMS website.

There is also this: https://www.hospitalsafetygrade.org/. It gives a letter grade for hospitals using some of that cms data and some other required / optional metrics.

Mind you, the data sets provided by CMS are usually 2 years old and the hospitals may have made improvements since that data. Reimbursement is tied to those rates being lower (sort of)
