Does anyone honestly believe Trump has never paid for an abortion?

Seriously Jesus fans. Look yourself in the mirror and tell yourself that.

They don't care. Donnie can pay for all the abortions he wants to. Jesus fans can pay for all the abortions they want to.

Only the disgusting heathen masses of poor, black, and brown people aren't allowed to pay for abortions. Its in the bible.

If you’re working on the trump campaign you slip the abortion pill in a smoothie

We have gotten to a point where smart people are staying apart from each other- so let the dumb ones get together. Most of us can wait this out.

The sad part is, the smart people sometimes have people who can't avoid contacts as essential workers. We're planning for a long winter of not seeing anyone in person. But we still have the hospital as a potential risk.
 
All my neuro tests so far came back as normal so...

now comes battle with insurance co. My company said they’d pay all covid related treatment including ER stays. They won’t pay mine because they don’t consider parasthesias as covid related, even though plenty of people complain of it during and after covid (and the Er doc stated this too).

Same, I can do everything I can but I still have to go to work and deal with the idiots. Either that or I live on the street and starve.

I remember you talking about an EMG. Often, they can be completely normal despite nerve issues. This is a bit complex, but basically your symptoms could be related to small fiber nerve irritation and the nerve conductions of an EMG really just look at the larger, faster fibers. Not that an insurance company (or most doctors, even neurologists) understands that. #notmedicaladvice

Thanks. Emg was normal as was b12 and thyroid test.

Neuro has always said this could be nerve irritation and it could last weeks or months.

I made mistake of peeking in survivor FB group today and hundreds of people claim their hair falls out 3-5 months after having covid.
 
You wanna know why there were 3000 new covid cases in Wisconsin today? Let me illustrate it for you.

I spent much of the day in a meeting with 11 other people. The room we were in was big enough to hold 50 or 60 people and there was PLENTY of space to spread out. Instead 9 people crammed around one table and 2 sat a foot apart at another one. 2 people had on a mask the whole time, me and one employee of the plant I was in. My two co-workers had masks but only wore them sporadically, not even a quarter of the time we were in the room. Not a single person working in the rest of the plant had on a mask. Not one. One of my co-workers said he thought masks did little, and possibly were harmful. Most of the others not wearing a mask concluded the same thing.

8 months ago -- when I only hated this place because there were far too many trumpers here -- seems like a lifetime ago. And it isn't going to get better. There are pockets of Wisconsin where I see people behaving more responsibly, but in the rural areas and midsized cities, I see a near complete and total disregard for a common sense approach to covid-19. This isn't going to get better here.

I gotta say, there's a whole rest of the world. I know people have family ties where they grew up but there's a reason people move to cities. It's where we keep the smart people.

I can never quite wrap my head around this. I swear I am not being a jerk: why are your skills not portable? I can see if say you work at the silk worm plantation in 1380 and it is specific to a 300-square meter area in Southeast Asia. But: there are factories and shops and hospitals and roads and airports and construction sites and computers and restaurants and government agencies and insurance agencies and farms and law offices and corporations and golf courses and warehouses and bus stations and schools and railroads and funeral homes and HR departments and tax offices and databases and architecture firms and mines and power plants and gyms and psychological clinics and churches and courtrooms and tv stations and libraries and movie theaters and veterinarians offices and pharmacies and masseurs and firefighters and police stations and malls and bars and pest eradication companies and amusement parks and masseurs and ad agencies and telemarketing companies and banks and whore houses everywhere.

I honestly do not get why if people don't like where they live they don't move.

The major companies for my (now former) job are located in 5 areas. Dallas/Fort Worth, Atlanta, Chicago, Memphis, and Louisville...and I was 1 of 55 selected among 2000 applicants.

People in my profession DO commute, but that would require that I have 2 places to live and 2 cars. I got paid pretty well...but, not that well (yet).

Because I have 14+ years in on a union pension, fantastic health care that helps take care of my wife, and a good paying job with seniority. Because my job in any other place wouldn't even pay half of what I make. Because my daughter is in sixth grade and I don't want to tear her away from her friends Most importantly...

Because I like where I live, I just hate some of the people that live here too.
 
I am lucky that the career I moved to in 2017 is incredibly portable (healthcare systems analyst, now into management). I absolutely intend to lean on that fact in 10-15 years when my girlfriend and I move to a warmer climate.
