I rewatched this movie just a few days ago 😄

I fully agree with this, it’s all about how you choose to look at things, with the right outlook most tasks can be enjoyed

I don’t know whether you were satiric or not, but it feels like it, hard to tell on a text medium. No hard feelings either way 😄

If you were “mocking my post in a satiric way”: I didn’t mean to say that nothing should be done or that it was not a reason to worry. I actually believe we should protect our ecosystems, but I think we need accurate data and this kind of posts, even if they convey the “right” message according to me, are misleading and create false information about what is going on. I truly believe we should try to avoid doing this.

I was worried so I looked for the source of the information, it seems to be from 'Washington State University" from their website they say it concerns “Commercial honey bee colony”, so it might not be all bees (I don’t know enough to say what the difference is exactly), they say “60 to 70% losses” (not 80), and they also say “Over the past decade, annual losses have typically ranged between 40 and 50%.”, so it is probably worrying but not as much as the CBS article was making it seem.

Most people are not us-citizens.

Is this an ad ?

You are still on the acid trip, just ride it until it’s over. It’ll be more fun if you just let it do its thing.

Yes of course, it was just a recent example to show that other countries aren’t perfect. I agree with the general message of the post, the us have a very fucked up system that is way worse than in Europe.

You can look at my other comment for more detail about why I felt the need to react.

Yes of course,

I replied to this post because it is one of many making bold claims about healthcare in other countries than the US, most of the times claims about European countries healthcare made by US users are false and/or misleading.

Sure the US has a very bad system, I see it and recognize how bad it is, but it’s a tad annoying to see stuff like that, that falsely say we have “0” bankruptcy or that “everything” is covered by public healthcare, that our life expectancy is that much higher, etc… Most claims are unsourced and blatantly false or largely inflated for shock value.

In France for example we have many issues with our public healthcare, not everything is covered (dental isn’t for example), we aren’t covered for the full amount unless we pay for private coverage on top (called “mutuelle”) which often are linked to your employer, we have to pay up front and then get reimbursed later, geographically there are areas with very few hospitals, the poorer often can’t afford to be sick because we aren’t always automatically paid for sick days at work, there’s a shortage of medical fields’ workers, and our current political leaders have been making it worse for decades…

All that to say that from the perspective of a “European” citizen, these posts about the US system compared with ours feels like propaganda that “we should be happy with what we have” even though we really shouldn’t, using false information.

She was too far gone to be able to go to the nearest public one.

It’s actually a huge scandal in France, we have laws preventing this, and the hospital is pretending that it was a mistake from an individual employee to refuse her.

I don’t know about the other countries, but In France there definitely still are problems, check this recent story https://www.lanouvellerepublique.fr/a-la-une/on-lui-refuse-l-acces-aux-urgences-elle-accouche-sur-le-parking-de-l-hopital

A pregnant women was refused entrance to a private hospital she was forced to give birth on the parking lot in front of the entrance.

Sure the USA have an awful system but it doesn’t mean it’s perfect everywhere else. There are people that are bankrupt because of medical treatment here too. And we also have corrupt CEOs making it worse

Every country needs a Luigi.

This really looks like shit.

I genuinely feel the same. I keep telling myself that’s just growing up and seeing the world more clearly with time, but it really feels like one big stupid drug-induced dream and I’m going to finally wake up from it eventually, cause the real world can’t be that dumb and insane.

I love that every comment focus on the math puzzle. Since the other stuff is clearly uninteresting.

Haha, I love this.

Also nothing indicates the numbers are Arabic numerals.

He is saying your shape might have 5 turns instead of 4 if the bottom line is not actually a line. Though if that was the case, the problem would not be solvable, so I doubt it.

Or they saw him eating differently at lunch, and asked their parents why.

No, vegans aren’t eating fish or seafood.

I have two cats: they wait while watching me and then slightly ‘fight’ to go in the clean litter box first.
