From the last page, but this can't be said enough.

I was out of work for almost a week after we had a 911 call for a "lift assist" (basically, someone fell and couldn't get up), and the patient turned out to be 780lbs, flopping on the ground like a fish. She couldn't get off the floor. She couldn't get up off the loving floor.

Yeah, gently caress all that body positivity and fat acceptance bullshit. Be healthy. Don't let yourself get to be almost a 1/2 ton. You'll inevitably gently caress up other people's livelihood's just like you hosed your own up.

That's so sad. Really, that is awful.

My friend is a pediatric nurse and one of the reasons she went into pediatrics is because she's a very small girl and was worried about this exact situation.

BTW Tess Holliday has two kids. I wonder if they're going to have healthier body types?

People have an obligation to be healthy if they want to receive social support. In Japan employers are penalized if they employees do not meet certain standards of fitness (basically an extra health insurance malus levied on them), because a mass health crisis like we have in the West destroys the ability of a medical system to function. There's nothing nuanced about the selfish stance of "I get to do what I want, and bear no repercussions".

Then why don't Japanese companies promote a healthier lifestyle than "smoke like a chimney, drink like a fish, eat instant noodles because you're busy, and sleep 12 hours a week"? I'm not arguing with you, I'm legitimately curious. The business culture in Japan doesn't really leave much room for healthful living and for every article I see claiming Japanese companies are trying to change their crushing ways, there's very little evidence that anything is really evolving.

This is the kind of things that makes me want to do splatter-painting with my monthly leavings. Just because the idea of menstrual blood bothers this random person so much.

Also, I have a vague memory of one of the Sugarmonster posts from before she got her surgery, saying that she's had her period for over a year. Does anyone remember this?

Hello



I GISed "bad fashion choices today."






Perhaps this young lady googled it every day.



I don't remember this TNG episode; is this the one where they're trapped in the holosuite and Troi is Eleanor fo Aquitain and some lady Riker is boning is Rosamunde and Riker is Henry II and Troi and Riker have to work together to rescure Rosamunde form the maze and it's some kind fo stupid allegory and doesn't belong in space? I made that up, but you can't tell me that couldn't be a TNG episode.















This actually kind of rules and if it were black, I'd buy it.

What do people have against transitions lenses? I'm a goonette with 'em because gently caress having to keep up with clip on sunglasses or prescription sunglasses. The only issue I've noticed with them is that if you've been out in the cold with them for a while (say, on a half-mile hike to class in the winter), they take a long time to return to clear when you go inside.

I think they're cool, but I had them in seventh grade and was bullied about them. :smith: Also I looked like John Denver and wore a Star Wars t-shirt every day. So, again, I am the AUG!

Seriously, though, if you follow fashion blogs, you come across the term "fatshion" every so often. And I do look at some, like Gabifresh, because they genuinely have a good sense of style.

Agreed, but River and Simon are explicitly said to be half-Asian, IIRC. But yeah, very few people of Asian descent in the main cast. It wasn't the least diverse main cast ever, though.
