@Fullycaffeinated @FeartnTired @HebrideanHecate Yep. There's a reason that 90% of the aides and 70% of the nurses in my mother's nursing home speak english with an accent. At least there's a union at her place so there's a level of accountability for wages, hours and working conditions, but the industry is still a race to the bottom. And when Medicaid payments get reduced to pay for trump and the GOP's tax cuts for billionaires it's gonna get worse in those facitilies that don't close.

@FeartnTired @Fullycaffeinated @HebrideanHecate It is really frightening. My mother's nursing home has changed ownership 3 times in the 7 years she's been there. The direct care staff pretty much have remained the same but the administrative and supervisory staff change and it's obvious the level of pressure they're under to cut costs. The only thing that really keeps things at a minimal reasonable care level is the annual Medicare and Medicaid on site 3 day review and the HHS quarterly review of medical records. When those get cut due to HHS staff cuts it's going to be bad.

@TriptychTwinsRidesAgain @Chronic-Yonic Yeah. My best friend senior year in high school and I told our parents we were going bowling and then hopped on the train to NYC in 1974 to see the New York Dolls. Made it home by midnight, high as a kite on strawberry mescaline, reeking of ciggy smoke and beer I'm sure but because it was the 70s and that's what both bowling alleys and NY clubs smelled like we didn't get caught. Good times, and wow long ago.....

@LostInCalifornia Here's the rub - we can pass all the referendum/constitutional amendments in the states, but if a state's Supreme Court is controlled by hardline conservative Republicans those laws and amendments will not get enforced.

@Piss_Ant From the wording in the article, it appears it must be _spent_, not allocated, so it couldn't be used for longer term/future projects that wouldn't actually spend it before the last day of the fiscal year. It does say unspent funds at the end of the fiscal year by law then goes to pay down provincial debt.

@xzy45 @Piss_Ant Yeah, I know someone with chronic acid reflux who got a bed with an adjustable base and now she sleeps raised up and has much better sleep.
