This is the same way they worded the abortion bill. Completely vague.

The problem is that when women took the law to court to, not even overturn the bill, but just to clarify the language and situations in which the bill applies (concerning medical emergencies), the texas ag office immediately stayed the courts ruiling that doctors could use "good faith judgement," kicking the can further down the road till next year.

The state claims that the law is explict in these situations and that the doctors are at fault for misinterpretating it, which is BS. The language is vague and they want to make sure it stays that way so they can apply it at whim.

The first time I heard of this place was from this documentary on you tube called into eternity

Although, a little moody, the flim has alot of interviews with the architects and engineers and stuff that, and talks about the problems they have to consider after it's sealed off.

Too bad these organisms are dying from the nasty chemicals that we inject into all the inanimate matter we produce.

Yeah. I mean, I figured out it was considered bad with the whole lizzy thing. Idk.

Mostly, it was the fact that I couldnt decide what to do in certain situations. So like, I'd open my mouth to talk, but then decide not to say anything and no words would come out, so it looked like weird, jerky movements. If I was really angry, I would be shaking. Stuff like that. I mean, it's not like the description wasn't semi accurate, I just didn't have the disability that went with it.

It has spaz in it.

I would freak out, but freeze at the same time when people would make fun of me, if that makes sense...thus the name.

I know not the point, but...

I tried entering the same name I use for the game for campfire and it told my that others would find it offensive, and refused to let me use it...it's been a nickname of mine for something like 20 years

Still haven't signed up for the standalone app...can't figure out what else to call myself :/

Yesterday, I got some pop up when I opened chrome about blah blah Google...ads...blah blah, and promptly downloaded Firefox.

Yes it's lame it wasn't already on there, but it's a shared / work computer and I try to keep new downloads to a minimum, but that was the last straw.

Bahaha! You think an engineer even knows how to work autocad?

Maybe 10 or 20 years ago, this mighy apply. At this point they leave the hard work for everyone else to figure out and draw up.

They just grab thier stamp.

(This, at least, applies to one's in the US. I apologize to any one who actually applies their degree to their field)

Dude. Sciatica is the worst. Every once in a while I injure myself and can barely stand for days.

The only thing that helped was this old, Hispanic "healer man", that massaged the nerve back into place. It's not like woo woo healing and its not an actual massage. This man just knew anatomy really well and could feel everything out by touch alone. It took 15 mins and I was pain-free, although I had to go back a few times until it set. Hiking helped the muscles get strong enough to keep it in place.

I've gone to several other people that say they do similar things, including ones near the boarder, but they've never been able to fix it. Western Doctors were completely useless, they couldn't even diagnose me properly. The next closest thing would probably be a sports massage therapist.

This man was apparently known far and wide, with people comming from other states to see him. Any one in my local hispanic community i mentioned it to, was familiar with him.

Sadly, he was old and stopped working his magic around the time covid started, due to him and his wife's, unrelated, ailing health. I've been searching for someone else ever since. I'm sure there are others like him, there are definitely imitations. I have to assume someone else has excelled at this practice, and this old man wasnt just a one off.

If you have any contacts in the hispanic community, that may know of someone like him, I'd say it's definitely worth a shot to at least ask around.

This. No one realizes that your probably not gonna make it to 100 in perfect health. If your body doesn't go, it will be your mind. Either way, it does not sound appealing.

If nothing else, the arthritis has gotten so bad, you wanna off yourself anyways.

Hard pass.
