If you work in the in the system - you know, and also have my sincere gratitude

For those that are NOT in healthcare - the system is so close to collapse it's not even comically bad. It's balancing a manhole cover on a needle, and these people are a huge band-aid that's keeping it together!
As a paramedic I can't state how important these people are, but it's more than uknow!

The keywords in the Congressional statement are "illegal orders".
If the order is legal, it just be followed. No one is arguing that.
If an order is illegal, such as shooting unarmed civilians, a service member is obligated to decline.
"Just following orders" is not a legal defense at trial.

Text reads “the national Park service still owes about 100 seasonal employees their salary after the government shut down which is illegal. Bullies always pick on the most vulnerable people in the NPS that’s our seasonal employees.” under the text is a skull and crossbones wearing a Ranger hat.

Text reads “the law requires that all government employees get paid back after the shutdown ends. That’s up to $200,000 of wages being withheld from seasonal workers. Rangers at multiple national parks have not been paid. Not only is the NPS breaking the law, but they are abusing the people who help your run.” In the middle of the page is the NPS arrowhead.

A screenshot of a news article with the headline some Park Rangers are still owed pay after the shutdown and a picture of the shoulder of a uniformed ranger. Below the screenshot text reads “Trump and his administration have been taking every chance possible to take away the rights of rangers. Every day is a fight for what we deserve.”

Text reads “seasonal employees are the heartbeat of the NPS. Despite 24% of Rangers getting pushed out of the NPS we aren’t allowed to hire anyone… How are we expected to keep the parks open when we’re down 1/4 of our staff? We’ve been told to fill all of the vacancies with seasonal employees, but now our seasonal employees aren’t getting the respect (and legal protections) they deserve.” Below the text is a group of rangers with their hands in the middle of a circle.

First they push 24% of rangers out the door, and tell us we can’t hire anyone to backfill those positions. Then, they tell us to fill those positions with seasonal (temporary) rangers—the positions in the NPS with the least protections.

(1/9) The CG and Hate Symbols: What We Know So Far (a thread).

Yesterday, WaPo reported that the CG has removed swastikas, confederate flags, and nooses from a list of "hate symbols". This is both technically correct, and an oversimplification.

This is the video that got Shitler‘s bloomers in a twist and prompted him to call for their execution.

This is going to be interesting to watch - NOLA generally takes care of its own...

The fact that healthcare and education are “for profit” endeavors. It’s a cancer to those systems.

That’s awesome - I’m happy for you!

See! I always miss the AMA! 😜

So true.

Had a question about proteins and the O2-hemoglobin curve so I asked about the Krebs Cycle and Claude responded with this. Thought I'd share my curiosity result. :) Actually a decent explanation - I was really interested in the protein shape changes... ;)
