True story. Just had a lady yell at me in the fruit market parking lot because I paused to let her back up first. Rolled down her window and was like “Just fricking go”. :lol:

I need RFK Jr to expedite banning pharmaceutical commercials.

I paid all of mine making 4.25 an hour while in college. Kids now are just lazy always saying shite like I don't have time. We didn't have time we just did it.

All the people in those pictures look really old.

A lot of old folks and sick or disabled people are capable of standing up and walking a few feet, but that doesn't mean they can walk across an airport or stand for a long time.

I feel like most people would be forgiving towards someone who is visibly old and frail. We were planning on possibly flying last summer with my Grandmother who is almost 90 and would’ve needed a wheelchair to make it all the way across the airport (she can still walk short distances).

The In Memoriam was great. :lol:

Why wasn't he committed until it was deemed he wasn't a risk to his self or others? Somebody dropped the ball.

It’s not easy to involuntarily commit someone in most states. You have to provide pretty significant evidence of behavior escalation and even then it’s typically a 72 hour hold unless they exhibit that psychosis on the hold.

As for OP, schizophrenia is incredibly hard to treat. You can medicate for psychosis but most of the meds used for that have really undesirable side effects that result in poor compliance. It can oftentimes take awhile to find a good combination of meds to stabilize. Schizophrenics typically need supports like targeted case management and the like to keep them on track with treatment.

There’s such a fine line between autonomy and commitment for folks with those kind of disorders.

Good match A&M. Well deserved. :cheers:

Definitely didn’t expect this to go less than 5 sets.

On the upside, Cats have been here before. They’re 8-1 (Pitt the loss) when losing the first set. Will be a battle either way.
