He is every engineering undergrad that thinks because the thing they do for money comes easily to them, their intuition on any topic is correct. He’s a loving idiot

He's definitely not someone worth listening to in any case. In other news, this article got linked to in D&D and man it's a real motherfucker. An Epidemic Is Killing Thousands Of Coal Miners. Regulators Could Have Stopped It quote:It's a familiar tale across Appalachia. Two hours north and east, beyond twisting mountain roads, Danny Smith revved up a lawn mower. He wore jeans, a T-shirt and a white face mask stretching from eyes to chin, and he pushed only about 15 feet before he suddenly shut off the mower, bent to his knees and started hacking uncontrollably. quote:"This is probably the oldest known occupational hazard," said retired industrial hygienist Weeks, who has a collection of antique books to prove it — with references to mine dust hazards from Pliny the Elder in the first century and another dating to the 15th century. quote:Kelly has a long list of simple tasks he can no longer accomplish: walking up his driveway to the mailbox; climbing the few steps to his barn; riding horses; even just getting up to head to the bathroom. He has to stop and rest on the way, he says. quote:"It's [been] eating at me for the last two years," he said, "that I'm going to die over this. ... Of all the things that could've killed me while I did work there, the rockfalls and all that stuff, I lived through all of that. And I find out years later I'm going to die over black lung. And it's heartbreaking."

The mining companies even had to set up mining hospitals and a fund for black lung sufferers and their widows. Guess they did everything they could and no functioning oversight was needed! Even worse is them knowing silica was dangerous but just assuming that they could control it by lowering coal dust because they were too lazy to implement another control mechanism targeting silica itself.

Pretty sure someone posted a story last year. Story was that Kentucky (my home state) signed a law that only a handful of doctors can review and verify Black Lung workers comp claims. These same doctors are all on the payroll of Coal Companies lol

It's a sore spot for me since I have a lot of extended family in the lovely coal towns of Western PA that have gobbled the company propaganda so hard that they would jump at the chance to live in company towns and send their kids underground. The exact thing their great grandparents warned their Grandparents about not doing because they worked and died in the mines and knew the company didn't care. They told their kids to get the gently caress out and find another job. Heck my dad is one of the first males in his family to not get black lung

The timing to this either points to 1) Trump and Erdoğan working out some bullshit about the Saudi murder or 2) Trump got turbofucked by Pelosi and isn't getting his wall money, so his cheddarbrain is forcing him to take control of something, anything for ego purposes.

Russia had slowly been getting frozen out of international legitimate markets because they've been goddamn assholes for almost two decades trying to mess with former soviet republican in one way or another, and having Trump just bumble in and gently caress it all up without even trying is almost as much of a win as dropping magnitsky sanctions and everything else they're under for having invaded Georgia and Ukraine and generally flaunting money laundering laws globally.

Knives Amilli posted:"gently caress raising money for fellow wounded veterans, what we really need is a wall to keep those filthy mexicans out!" I loving just ended up deleting a comment on my senator's Facebook page where people were turning my remarks about survivor benefits before the wall into "YEAH KEEP THE ILLEGALS OUT SO THEY DON'T STEAL BENEFITS FROM VETERANS" bullshit. This loving pisses me off. I can't get anyone to acknowledge my issue even loving exists, but this loving idiot is probably going to rake in money from stupid people because of this stupid loving wall.

McNally if you want them to pay attention you gotta MAGA up your message. These are simple morons who barely read what you write. You gotta somehow tie everything about your problem into their pre-determined talking points: Liberals, Illegals, and Muslims are your first stop on the MAGA train. Here let me demonstrate:MAGA McNally posted:Liberal socialist democrats want to give big benefits like ObamaCare and Welfare, and Social Security to illegal immigrants and radical Muslim terrorists rather than properly pay surviving spouses. Lying Nancy Pelosi and her gang of jack booted liberal thugs want the surviving spouses of our brave servicemen and women to pay for their survivors benefits out of their own pockets while Cuck Schumer is trying to get Illegals the right to vote in elections! Disgraceful! When you get your first message past 1k shares in the MAGA crowd you can thank me.

Can’t say I’d blame you, my soul is a dark black husk if it’s former self so I’m comfortable wading around in the MAGA deep end. You follow the right folks on FB and Twitter and you can be ahead of MAGA like talking points easily and know what Fox & Friends will be saying days before they say it. It’s utterly fascinating if you can stomach the Chuds. I take a Jane Goodall approach. These fucks must be studied.

Trump administration aims to toughen work requirements for food stamps recipientsquote:The country’s food assistance program, which is run by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, already requires most adults without dependents to work if they collect food stamps for more than three months in a three-year period. But USDA regulations allow states to waive the requirement in areas with unemployment rates that were at least 20 percent greater than the national rate. Yes, they'll be so dignified while they're starving, you absolute motherfucking son of a bitch

I work when I really shouldn't be. I've got ptsd from Iraq that gets bad, and sometimes REALLY bad, when I'm driving. But this godamn state has lovely public trans and one of my jobs (yes, multiple) I need to bring my own equipment. I make too much for any kind of assistance. My wife skipped open registration because even the cheapest plan is financially out of reach, and lolololol at actually even being able to afford a doctor. I broke myself for this country and they throw me under the loving bus.
