My wife had a D&C after a miscarriage earlier this year. Luckily, our state isn't as shitty as others, but the surgery was still labeled an abortion, and they made her answer a bunch of questions like it was a choice and not that our baby was dead for a month before the 12 week ultrasound. And the shitheel front desk woman lied to us and said that no one could be back there with her (obviously not in surgery, but I wasn't even able to be back in the waiting area with her pre or post op), because that woman was a religious fruitcake and "didn't agree with the procedure"

We raised some serious hell after finding that out and took it up through their patient advocate. It went up to the hospitals board and they issued an apology, which meant fuck all, and I think that woman was fired.

I don't understand why people want to be involved in anyone else's lives. I get it if you personally don't agree with abortions, but that's your choice. You don't get the right to decide what someone else does with their own fucking body. The kicker is that most people don't even realize that a D&C after a miscarriage is the same exact procedure and is classified the same. Excuse the fuck out of me if I don't want my wife to die from sepsis or have to sit around for another 1-2 months with a dead fetus inside of her waiting for it to possibly discharge naturally. That whole experience was awful enough and she wanted it to be over as soon as possible.

Fuck your religious beliefs. Apply them to yourself, no one else should bend over to appease your stupid sky fairy bullshit.

High school: Physics or Calculus. Loved Newtonian physics, and I was always good at advanced math (sucked at basic arithmetic for some reason, always got bored and skipped steps)

College: Thermodynamics, Heat Transfer, or Fluid Dynamics. Combination of advanced math and physics, always really cool to me. Differential equations was a close fourth.

I liked my moral and ethical philosophy class, up until the professor started evangelizing to us about religion, which kinda ruined it for me

Exactly. I'm not going to pay a fuckload of money for multiple streaming services only to still not see my fucking team every week.

I don't necessarily disagree with you, but casual snack?

Great time!

Are we able to upload multiple images on this instance? If not, was that a conscious decision?

I used long miters on the legs, and I set my table saw to 44.9° to get a slightly better outer edge, but didn't fully consider the consequences. So the legs were slightly out of square, which made the sides, drawers, and shelves a bit squirrelly. In the future, I'll just set the blade to 45° and fill any gaps in the joint (or just don't use long miters).

Also learned that figure eight tabletop fasteners are stupid easy to install and work great. Got a bit more confident in building/installing drawers, which is something I've struggled with in the past.

The US is already trying to do it with KOSA

That equates to $36.7M/year. Last year, Meta had a revenue of $114B, so the fine is 0.03% of their total revenue. Definitely just getting written off
