  • Trump MAGA supporters crash Harris’ rally ... and she smokes them with a great one-liner

    跳过

  • If someone by now isn't concerned about defeating Trump, there's literally nothing we can do about it other than to call them out for being a shitbag for voting 3rd party.

    It must be nice to have the luxury of making a protest vote. They must think their life wouldn't change either way.

  • But it's literally how it works in the USA with voting. It shouldn't, but it DOES.

  • Yeah, thank fuck he beat Trump or both Ukraine and Gaza would already be gone by now. I really wish he would stop selling weapons to Israel though.

  • From one of the cited articles in the study:

    Despite the government's continued conciliation, the return of majors is still a long way off. According to the Ministry of Health and Welfare, only 879 (8.4%) of the 10,509 residents of 211 training hospitals actually went to work as of the 30th of last month. Based on 100 training hospitals, only 714 out of 9,992 people (7.1%) are working. "The Ministry of Health and Welfare recently sent an official letter to the heads of training hospitals across the country to meet with doctors to confirm their intention to return to the hospital and their future career," said Jeon, a controller. "If you look at the institutions that submitted related data, the response rate for returning majors is less than 10 percent."

  • Existing doctors see this as competition and a threat to their livelihood. They are already well paid in Korea, so it's just the doctors being greedy.

    None of this is true.

  • There are a lot of problems in the Korean medical system. Here's a journal report discussing a few of the key points: https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(24)00766-9/fulltext

    Here's a longer article going into detail why the residents are so upset.

    Basically, there are a lot of problems with the South Korean healthcare system, leading to unsafe public health situations. Instead of actually trying to fix any of the problems, the government decided to significantly increase the number of residents each year (throw more people at the problems), criminally prosecute them for mistakes, and also tell them it might be illegal to quit, so they'll just take their whole medical license away. Like 90% quit and said they're not coming back. There was a suggestion that the government, instead of completely revoking resigning residents' medical licenses, may remove their ability to work in hospitals ever again, but allow them to work in rural clinics because they're already so understaffed and no one wants to live in the middle of nowhere for shit pay... unless the only other option is to find a new field of work and waste all those years of med school.

  • It's not that easy. They don't have much money, and that's why they were living where they were. The city nearby where everyone works became too expensive after the Camp Fire (rent has almost doubled) and then COVID. It's really hard. They would've had to start over completely somewhere else without nearby family, friends, or their jobs. It's just not that simple. Towns burning down is a pretty recent recurrence.

  • They're clearly trying to win if they got so scared about polls they strong-armed Biden into resigning. The panic has pretty clearly set in. We'll see if this works or not.

  • You forgot the implication that black women couldn't possibly be skilled or smart enough to be hired. Because they're black. That's the racist part. It's devaluation stemming from racism.

  • Honestly, I'm at a loss. It's so hard to get a single school of teachers to stick to one policy, let alone at a district or state level. When I send an all-staff email at my school (and they're occasionally important with scheduling details), Outlook often tells me that only 67% of them even opened it.

    I feel like you'd either have to: a) incorporate cellphones as a tool in class and have standard repercussions (e.g. 1st/2nd time earn a detention, 3rd time earn a Saturday school) for kids texting/on social media, or b) do something like a box on the desk so it's visible but they can't touch it.

    I just don't think it's possible to ban them at school. Too many parents don't respect any school authority figures after COVID with all the culture war stuff (fight to return to full day school, fight to not wear masks, fight to censor bipoc and lgbtq+ books/lessons/celebrations, etc.). I think either way, it'll just end up being another shitty part of a teacher's job.

  • What's the dumbest blockbuster movie you have seen that somehow received high praise?

  • They were all pretty close to the books except that they cut out a lot of the pointless bickering that kept happening all the time, so I'd blame JK Rowling for those.
