Plenty have been fighting for it, but there's an uphill battle against "but that's socialism and socialism is evil!" and those that personally benefit financially who stand in the way.

For marketability, it's horrendous. While I'm open to dramatic, unique, and off the wall stuff it's still not my taste.

BUT! I would absolutely take advantage of the discount I'd get on the property after it's spent over a year on the market. I also wouldn't be in a rush to remodel, but would look for ways to highlight it till the novelty wore off.

"a ban on leashing an animal without a collar."

Am I not awake enough and missing something? Are harnesses unacceptable? It's someone doing something stupid that I haven't heard of before?

Not a Texan, but as I understand if a state connects to other states then there are federal regulations that need to be followed.

Did the guy on the couch in the first pic do something to not deserve legs?

Yep - Garmin Venu 3 here. I just charged and it's telling me 15 days of battery, but with my use I'll probably charge it in 12-13 days.

I mean, it's hospice lol. I work with some of the most compassionate, respectful, and caring people I could ever hope to work with. We also tend to have a macabre sense of humor. 🥴

The hospital provides phones and has us use Teams for remote meetings and other communication. Official patient information is always recorded through Epic/Haiku. Since the majority of the staff is in the field, they'll use Teams to communicate throughout the day for staffing updates and to notify us of deaths - particularly helpful if you're me driving to the patients house and planning on giving them a massage lol.

I work in hospice making home visits, and yesterday was a bad day. Sucks when you're out making visits and missing notifications about change in patient conditions and death notifications. Before Teams they used a paging system that was glitchy, but everyone understood it was shit so there was an additional level of contact to ensure workers got relevant info when needed. Yesterday half the day went by before people realized the system was fucked.

I wouldn't call it a flex. But sometimes openly admitting something even to strangers on the Internet can offer some ownership of the situation and start someone headed the right direction.
