Regan winning re-election in every state but Minnesota resulted in the two parties adopting the exact same economic policies.
There was no viable alternative, so the economic inequalities that neoliberalism creates has run rampant for 40 years
For the people going to the er, it’s one of the worst days of their lives. For the people who work there it’s Tuesday.
They move too fast on er. Everything is life or death high stakes, dead bodies are laying around in the hall, gangbangers are barging into surgery rooms to finish off their victims, doctors and nurses should be burning out left and right.
The Pitt feels more like an actual ER where it’s just a job for the staff.
My only problem with ER is they never bother to resolve most of the plots.
They had this one really interesting one where a mom is beaten to death and it’s revealed her daughter did it and then we never see that family ever again
It’s pretty good, especially if you have nostalgia for the mid-90s
There’s certainly good things about it

I’ve played so many Bethesda games that the tricks they used to make the engine and environments seem larger and more sophisticated stick out like a sore thumb.
All that is to say, there was absolutely a great game in Starfield somewhere.
Imagine if for every news story you read about something bad happening to a tourist they also had to report on every successful visit.
People prefer what’s familiar, in cultures where it’s not the norm they prefer uncut.
Sad watching tv and radio die
Yeah that’s Anthony Bourdain
They’re just looking for an off-ramp as everything implodes as a result of their actions
It was a great show. Sure there was some jank cgi but that’s fine, I don’t mind glossing over that
The whole series is a great little time capsule of the 2010s too
Your broom broke
Love this campy shit.
I think with any ER it must be like that. You’re doing a 12 hour shift, it’s a marathon not a sprint. Slow and steady wins the race. Other platitudes.
