In the July 4 interview, Rivera said he and Snyder had come up with two names that Rivera really liked. He did not reveal the names, but said he wanted to confer with Native American and military organizations to make sure that the new name properly honored both.

I did one 4 yrs ago and they gave me the tylenol+codeine. Of course this just led to me vomiting a bunch and that going over the sutures etc wasn't too pleasant so yeah maybe saltwater + advil would have been the better option.

WASHINGTON—Following an outpouring of criticism from across the country, the Washington Redskins announced Wednesday that they are officially changing the team’s name to the D.C. Redskins. “We’ve heard the concerns of many people who have been hurt or offended by the team’s previous name, and I’m happy to say we’ve now rectified the situation once and for all,” said franchise owner Dan Snyder, adding that “Washington Redskins” will be replaced with “D.C. Redskins” on all team logos, uniforms, and apparel. “It was a difficult decision—and one that, frankly, I’m a little embarrassed took me so long to make. So hopefully we can now put this issue to bed and start cheering on our D.C. Redskins.” In light of Snyder’s decision, Cleveland Indians owner Larry Dolan told reporters he will change the feather in Chief Wahoo’s headdress from red to a “more appropriate” shade of red.

NBC News posted:

But the debate about that narrow and contested issue distracts from a larger, often-overlooked consensus, current and former military and intelligence officials say.

U.S. intelligence agencies have assessed for years that Vladimir Putin's Russia is supporting America's enemies in Afghanistan with cash and weapons. And President Donald Trump has said nothing publicly about it, even as he has pursued warmer relations with Putin and Russia, including ordering his intelligence agencies to cooperate with Russia in the Middle East.
So. . . Trump is still a piece of poo poo that is mum while Putin works against us.

I only had 2 wisdom teeth and got like maximum strength advil or something. This was 2007/08.

Honestly, I didn't feel a thing and put together a new custom PC afterwards.

I will, however, never forget the sounds and effort of the extraction. Yikes.

That can work but you'd have to wrap it up pretty tightly and have no holes a cm or larger (shortest wavelength used in cellphones is around 3.5ghz which is roughly 10cm, 1/10th wavelength is a rule of thumb for faraday cages). Theres EMI/RFI shield bags you can get for packaging stuff that'd work, usually used for aviation/military circuit boards. A normal antistatic bag won't work because they'll have just enough metal in them for very low frequency dissipation of charge.

Incidentally a freezer should work pretty well for preventing communications to a cellphone, though it depends on the seals.

I have now exhausted all knowledge I have of electromagnetic compatibility, gently caress that class forever.

That's all I've ever gotten except the one time Dr. China TinyHands had to consult on grinding off part of my mandible and shamed my regular dentist into cutting me 30 10/375 vicodins. It took a week to get the prescription filled and when I finally tried one, t+10 minutes was the first time my face hurt all week, t+15 was the least I'd ever cared about my face hurting, and t+30 was "wow I want more of these"

They gave you the giant horse advil right? If you're not taking at least 600mg at a time you're doing it wrong.

The VA pulled my wisdoms and a few others a few months ago. Awake. Numbing agents only. In under 90 minutes. Ibuprofen and excedrin only after.

It sucked, but I wouldn't take the painkillers even if they prescribed them. Which they didn't, because I have a long history of refusing opiates from the VA and my record probably reflects it. That and admitted weed smoking for just as long. So probably a generic substance abuse label.

Don't let depression eat your teeth.

I guess I got lucky with my wisdom teeth, both my top ones were pulled while I was awake and I didn't even feel it afterwards. The last one was so easy I got out of the chair and followed the dentist saying "hey, come back, you aren't done." She even let me keep the tooth. Coolest dentist ever.

Also don't shout Candy Bar after the dentist does their work, shockingly few of mine ever got the joke.

It's overall just not a pleasant experience to be awake throughout. When the day comes to swap my Southern smile for falsies, I want to be out cold for remaining pulls and drilling for anchors.

gently caress being awake for all that noise.
