Floods - how you can help
In a case like this involving a large employer, I think your best move is to advocate for money to be given to the community foundation who can then distribute the funds to vetted local organizations in the front line. Obviously, I can’t speak for every community foundation, but the ones I’ve had involvement with do really good work and are pretty efficient.

The Leopards Eating Faces and Unlubed Dildo of Consequences Thread
I know people are mad and I’m not calling you out singularly, but it doesn’t make a fucking difference. Kids don’t vote. And, FWIW, everyone I know that either had kids at camp in Hunt, has sent kids in the past or is an adult that went to camp there, myself included, definitely didn’t vote for Trump.

McDonald’s
You were expecting a tasty spicy chicken sandwich from a chain based out of Wisconsin? I could have told you how that was going to go and saved you a few bucks.

I caught the cancer
Who read the scans initially? I’m amazed at how often things get missed. My wife and I both have examples of things getting missed, fortunately they were both orthopedic issues and not cancer. First was my wife who had been having knee pain (she’s a runner) and got the all clear on an MRI. After it not going away, I sent the scan to a buddy that’s a pediatric radiologist and he took one look at it and saw a meniscus tear. She had surgery a week later. In my case, I tripped over a broken sidewalk while walking my dog in the dark. Had an x-ray the next day and got the all clear. Continued to have pain and couldn’t walk without a limp for six months when I finally made an appointment with an orthopedic surgeon. He took one look at the films and said he would have operated on me the next day after I had the original x-ray. Ended up having lisfranc surgery and I have an assortment of screws in my foot as a result.

July 4th Hill Country Flooding Tragedy
I hear you. I don’t have kids and I swing between distraught and rage. I can’t imagine how much that’s amped up for the parents around here. I’m having lunch on Thursday with a friend that had two sons rescued out of one of the cabins at La Junta that has been seen all over the news. I imagine that will be an emotional meal.

Elon Musk: Nazi traitor piece of shit [Confirmed]
I think the platform will be austerity mixed with white nationalism with special exceptions to the austerity piece when it benefits Elon’s companies.

Trump’s America
This administration cracks me up. They put out the most obvious propaganda that can easily be disproven and people just lap it up. “The average American now makes $675,000 annually” and people would believe it while looking at their bank account with less than $1,000 in it.

July 4th Hill Country Flooding Tragedy
A whole lot of kids and families are going to need grief counseling. I hope there is some sort of way to ensure these people have access to the care that they are going to need on an ongoing basis.

That’s okay. She’s probably received enough dick pics at this point.

And that can’t be posted on the DT thread because of the “politicizing a tragedy” and “too soon” crowd on this board.

2025 Thread of the Rains
It has been difficult not to spiral. Can’t even begin to imagine what this feels like for families with children that are missing.
