your experience may vary but I would recommend it to anyone at least to try it.

edit: it uses characters and not pinyin. which I think is really the way to go, but learning Chinese characters is....something that some people will be better at than others. I make up little stories or other tricks to remember each one. and after repetitions, you don't need the tricks anymore

I tried HelloChinese and my kids keep ripping it away to do the drawings.

Xenology is an unnatural mixture of science fiction and formal logic. At its core is a flawed assumption...

that an alien race would be psychologically human.

There's work to think about, too. Our society clearly needs chuds working in it, and everything's just going to get even shittier than it already is as more people who would otherwise be doing stuff get converted into corpses or merely become permanently incapacitated. There's some amount of stuff that just needs to get done, and I don't think we're going to get it done after intentionally letting half the country get covid.

i live next to an elementary school. drove past when school was opening this week. hundreds of parents and children

i didn't see a single mask

My true blue school is 100% masked , but only about 2-3% of parents wear n95s and only the asian kids (and mine) wear comparable ones. Cloth or pseudo surgical for everyone else

The air is just pumped in window unit circulation per room, no filtration I could see

Out of curiosity, say you just don't want to deal with the whole intubating/venting thing since the prognosis is so bad, can you sign some kind of do not intubate thing? Can they like still pump you full of sedatives while you asphyxiate to death or whatever?

'Cause I'd be down to not go through a vent only to die anyway but I also don't want to be abandoned in some hallway writhing in pain for 5 days before I pass away or something.

Not that it will matter, if I do get sick it'll be when all the hospitals are full anyways :allears: (I'm young, vaxxed, no underlying conditions, not even overweight etc but may as well know what to do in the worst case scenario)

Yes, there are a few different "code" statuses.

Full code means you want CPR, intubation, the works.

Intubate only means no CPR, just the breathing tube.

DNI means Do Not Intubate, but yes CPR.

DNR means Do Not Resuscitate - just lemme die

Not quite a code status, but there's CMO, which means comfort measures. We give you awesome drugs like fentanyl, versed, propofol, morphine, ativan...whatever you want to keep you comfortable as you pass

Edit: Beaten by a doc

lil poopendorfer posted:

if you're young n healthy I don't think you can avoid getting snorkeled. No Dr is gonna sign a DNR for you and advance directives aren't legally binding. And if your resp status was declining and intubation was impending and you said "no" you wouldn't be considered to be decisional.

AT BEST, you might be allowed to die after several days of no improvements, but that depends on your POA being able to pull the trigger.

So my ER’s positivity rate is now 19% and was 38% two weeks ago. I’m in southern Louisiana though which has been close to the epicenter of the latest wave. I think other areas touting lower numbers need to be pretty cautious. 19% is still very high and school is now in full swing.

GO TO YOUR ROOM!
imagine being one of these unvaccinated chuds lying on what is presumably your death bed, in pain and suffering like you’ve never experienced, and on top of that the tiny flickering sensation that you can’t quite put your finger on, or even truly name, that gives rise to this feeling that maybe something, somewhere in your life has gone horribly wrong, as you sit there in utter pain, drowning in your own misery and confusion.
