The Secretary of State gave the Green Party the Green Party the wrong form

LMFAO at trying to blame a secretary of state for a very old and experienced political party using the wrong damn form

regardless of country

social workers...are trained to be this way

No, they're not, and laws and licensing standards actually vary widely by country. I'm talking about the US, where we have a national accrediting body for social work graduate schools. Nowhere in there is anything about "insistence," quite opposite in fact.

OP's experience that happened twice at the same doctor is in no way indicative of a pattern across the whole profession lol

Lastly, looking at your other comment, I have absolutely no idea what "voluntary reinforcement classes in a shantytown" are or how a social worker would be involved in them, or what they did that relates to this topic

The new details were released in a cache of court filings that were ironically made public as a direct result of the congressman’s friend, Dorworth, trying to make this disappear.

When the DOJ dropped the investigation, Dorworth sued several people including Greenberg, and the woman who claimed she was sex-trafficked by Gaetz when she was only 17. Dorworth did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

D'oh!

Have you considered that the answers you seek may be in the article?

At no point should you ever be so concerned about protecting a licensed professional's feelings that you don't ask for what you want, in this case to be left alone. If they get their feelings hurt, that's totally on them, because they're (supposed to be) the professional in this situation.

Any social worker who violates your agency and consent is in breach of their legal obligations and should be reported to their state board. Any social worker who takes things a patient says personally, and responds from emotion based on that, is also a terrible social worker. I've been a social worker a long ass time and the people I know and work with do neither of these things.

On the Nude Africa website in both comments and his profile, minisoldr offered numerous details that align precisely with Robinson’s personal history.

In his profile, minisoldr listed his full name as “mark robinson” and disclosed a private email address Robinson used elsewhere online. In 2012, a user responded to a comment by calling minisoldr “Mark.”

Minisoldr mentioned in 2008 being married for 18 years, which corresponds with Robinson’s marriage to Yolanda Hill in 1990. In 2011, minisoldr wrote he had been married 21 years. Minisoldr wrote in a 2011 post that he lived in Greensboro, North Carolina, the same town where Robinson lived at the time and currently lives.

In a post in 2012, minisoldr said he served in the Army in the 1980s, during the same time period as Robinson. In his sexually graphic comments detailing watching women in the showers in 2011, minisoldr wrote that his mother worked at an Historically Black College and University (HBCU). Robinson’s mother worked as a custodian at North Carolina A&T State University, an HBCU located in Greensboro.

Both minisoldr and Robinson often posted about the same topics online, including reviews for remote-controlled helicopters, their attraction to specific celebrities and their favorite “Twilight Zone” episode.

The email address associated with minisoldr on Nude Africa was also used by Robinson elsewhere online and social media. On the commenting platform Disqus, a user who joined in April 2011 features Mark Robinson’s photo under the username minisoldr.

Usernames and email addresses from Disqus were publicly leaked online in 2017, according to the company. CNN confirmed that Robinson’s username minisoldr on Disqus shared the same email address as the one used on Nude Africa.

Robinson’s Disqus page is also linked to the Black social networking site Black Planet. The Web Archive shows a user named “minisoldr” described themselves as 40 years old in February 2009 – the same age as Robinson at the time – and living in Greensboro, North Carolina – Robinson’s hometown.

Oof. And it keeps going

I blame this mostly on the doctor. The doctor should've asked you if you wanted to speak with someone about your situation, but lots of doctors prefer to just make decisions for people rather than ask.

The rest of the blame lies with the social worker, who sounds like a bad social worker. Active listening is Social Work 101, and it sounds like she didn't do that.

Maybe your doctor's office is full of people who are bad at their jobs. I recommend against extrapolating anything about these professions as a whole from your two experiences there.

Uhh...if your doctor refers you to someone else within their own practice, that's in no way a violation

Morning y'all, anyone able to identify this "weed?" It grows very low to the ground and has tiny blue flowers. Seems to be one of the first bloomers of the year

These were sold to me as Senegalia roemeriana, but really don't look like any pictures I'm seeing. Any ideas?
