There's a guy here in town; has a lifted Ram diesel brodozer.   Trump stickers on the back glass with his A&M decals; has flown a trump flag off of his bumper hitch from time to time.  Pretty much what you picture.

Except this week, he has a Chiefs flag flying off the bumper hitch.  Either he's super conflicted or he is clueless about the whole Swift/Kelce/NFL story.

I found the dichotomy hilarious.

That makes sense.

The Chiefs are winners and it's in the nature of aggy to hitch their wagon to a winner to ride the tail coat to a championship.

 

There are some that love the Chiefs solely for their refusal to bend to lib'rul demands to change their name.

This is such unbridled horseshit. I live in fucking California, and I'm not sure if I've ever seen a Fuck Trump shirt/flag/bumper sticker/whatever in person. I can't go a day without seeing Let's Go B

How old was TS in that video

Swift broke her long-running apolitical approach to publicity in 2018, when she endorsed Blackburn’s Democratic opponents in the midterm elections. Swift said in a statement that Blackburn’s voting record “appalls and terrifies me.”

Swift’s 2020 documentary Miss Americana shows the singer crying as she explains to her father why she needs to speak out against Blackburn, over the latter’s opposition to LGBTQ rights and the Violence Against Women Act. Swift criticizes Blackburn’s policies and calls her “Trump in a wig.”

In my experience it depends on the type of nurse a person is. Overall I'd say it's about 50/50. 

LVNs are barely nurses which make up a majority. 

I know several RNs and NPs that can't stand their dumbasses. Their job is to pass out meds. Thats it.

LVNs perform crucial duties, especially in SNFs, LTACs, and other dumping grounds of older Americans. They are a critical part of the continuum of care.

But like you mentioned, very minimal education. 

According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, there are 676,440 LVNs vs 2,986,500 RNs. Healthcare in this country is so fucked lmao

I did not know there was that much of an imbalance.  How many nurse practitioners are there?  I've noticed over the past few years, I almost never see my primary any more, it's always the nurse practitioner, which is fine.

LVNs can be really annoying, because it's just enough education to fool lay people into thinking you know more than you do, and that's a feeling a lot of people enjoy, especially if being "in healthcare" gives you some cachet in your social circles. It all depends on how self-aware and mature the nurse is.

I love Carville.

Carville is one of two funny-lookin famous guys I almost bumped into in person. One time, he was runnin on the bike trail in Alexandria VA. Or maybe I was bikin on the runnin trail, dunno. Another time, he was gettin take-out pizza and had on bright red shoes. Anybody else, I wouldn't have noticed. But he's so damn funny lookin, he draws the eye.

Bruh... it's easy

He is aggy.  Arrowhead Stadium is located in Kansas City, Missouri.  Missouri is the home of The University of Missouri which is a member of the SEC.   If KC wins, aggy can put up a National Champeenship sign on Pyle Stadium.

I'm not much on pop culture and have not knowingly heard a Taylor Swift song. If there's only one that I should listen to on YouTube which one is it?

I didn't know if I had either, then I realized they are the soundtrack to half the puppy videos out there.

Who would be doing immunotherapy infusions? I'd chat with all the nurses, find out where they were from. Many of them drove in from from other towns. The ones from hill towns north and east of here tended to be grumpier and more likely that I'd overhear them grumbling about vaxes. But matches up pretty well with local politics I guess.

Non-related, but a buddy works sound at a local bar that has bands. Every few months he's hanging out with a different Travel Nurse. Everybody seems happy.

From time to time I’ll get dinner and an old-fashioned at one of my fave restaurants. Carvel is one of the regulars at that bar, especially if LSU is on the TV.    I’ve had several discussions with the guy, and he is as bright and knowledgeable as he is kooky.   

interesting guy. As a kid, he grew up at one of the few remaining leper  colonies, which is located in Carville, Louisiana.

LVNs can do infusions in Texas, but they need an additional certification for it. I would hazard a guess that most LVNs lack that cert and the majority of infusions are run by RNs, whether they're BSNs or ASNs.

I'm uncertain how many football fans are really pissed off about the Taylor Swift/NFL coverage but I do know the Venn chart would overlap completely with the same guys who get pissed off about football safety rules changes or players talking politics.  Their opinions ignore players who don't know their own names by 50, or they ignore conservatives players/entertainers who mimic their own political beliefs.

I don't know which accounts are parody accounts. With "fucking Taylor Swift makes you gay" I'm assuming this is parody.

She is one of the most famous people in the world, is objectively attractive (how much so depends on your tastes) and is worth billions. These people live in an upside down world.

Nope, it was glossed over. I reported it within a couple of minutes to the site's owner, who was active on the same page. If I recall correctly, there's a requirement for three "reports" to be made before any action is taken (why 3? I dunno. does that number also apply to racist posts?), so none was taken.

What irked me most was this was only a day or so after a stink was made about the Cloak Room being toxic and also during a time in which there's an effort to make this site more attractive to young people. It doesn't seem to me that allowing homophobic slurs to stay up is going to do that though.

The WSJ editorial board is largely insane and completely different from the paper itself but even the conspiracy talk is too much for them.  They had a piece today about the Taylor Swift thing being an example of how it's basically a party of conspiracy theorists now.

Welp I guess I'm a Swifty now.  My daughter and wife will be so excited.

Father with daughters are how you end up a middle aged male TS fan.  Her music was annoying to me at first, but having spent the last 10yrs and thousands of miles driving my daughters around to various club sports tournaments,  her songs were always playing since the copilot controls the radio.   When I started to ask my daughters why they connected to her various songs I started to appreciate how she is helping these kids cope with their shit at various stages in their lives.  Now her songs are a soundtrack to many fond memories of being a dad.   I hope she kicks the shit out of these dickheads trying to fuck with her.    #teamswift
