Pediatric. Oncologist. That dude is an absolute hero and treasure for taking on such a horrible and bleak profession. I hate that those words are combined in existence at all. God I’m so ashamed to be an American.
Some people are built different. My dad worked as a pediatric hospice nurse for almost 10 years. Talk about a shitty sad job. Every single patient is a child and every single one of them is GOING to die on your watch. Fuck THAT. I do not know how he did it.
Now that is a hero
I figure we have to have some angels to balance out the demons that end up in positions of prominence in our societies.
is the title a pun on “depart-ment of education”?
It’s from a presidential directive for dissolving the “Departmen of Education”
It does appear to be so.
This is a sign we are collapasing. When the smart people wanna leave we are left with a bunch of narrow minded, uneducated people.
I work in big tech. 10 years ago, nobody was talking about going back to India, Pakistan, and to an extent, China. Now, people are talking about it. They’re talking about Indian stocks, Indian houses, and dreams of retiring to go back.
Most people aren’t - but the number is now non-zero.
Extremely sad news, this is what an authoritarian state looks like for anyone who still didn’t believe it. Wish them all the best wherever they land.
brain drain
Wont last long until only the abolutely immoral scientists remain that are willing to experiment on political prisoners.
Replacing education with idiots. The perfect republican scenario.
Whoever does not realize that THIS IS FAR MORE DEVASTATING than any nuclear bomb or even SIGNED capitulation in a war - is nothing else but an utter fool.
Can someone send me a direct link to his post?
If you want to live a happy life in the US right now, make sure your parents are in Russia.
I can’t wait for these brave visionaries to build capitalism and white supremacy in Europe. \s

Well if you don’t like what’s happening… before trump it was very extreme letting too many people in unobserved, and now we have it the other way. If the laws concerning immigration had just been respected in the first place, this probably wouldn’t be happening the way it is now.
(I’m not taking sides here, just making an observation.)
The US immigration system has been broken for decades, as a everytime a Democrat tries to fix it, the Republicans refused, to the point the democrats started getting Republicans authoring laws to fix the problems, and AGAIN the Republicans refuse, then we had Republicans author their own bills 100% and the Republicans REFUSED to fix it.
People as fucking stupid as you are why. ‘‘Well why didn’t they just follow the law’’ because THE SYSTEM IS INTENTIONALLY BROKEN YOU FUCKING IDIOT, FAMILIES ARE GETTING DESTROYED AND PEOPLE ARE DYING WHILE YOUR DUMB ASS FAILS TO PAY ANY ATTENTION PAST ‘‘oh gee golly why didn’t they just do it legally’’ 90% + of immigrants come on legally. How do they get illegal? They need a hearing. With an immigration judge, where are those? Oh… we don’t have enough by the 100s. How far back is the backlog for immigration hearings? Oh its thousands of cases? Who represents people who need representation that our laws require they have? No, no, we don’t have attorneys, that’s not important. Just have the 5 year old that no one has any documentation on represent themselves? Yeah, that makes a lot of sense let’s do that.
Wait in line properly? BUILD THE FUCKING LINE!!!
Anyone who says its all one side’s fault, is not being honest. Chill out.
Those are Americans, they are unable not to go to extremes. And most extremes are shit. Sausage is somewhere in the middle but Americans never look there.
It seems like the administration is trying to discourage travel across the border. Not just people on work visas, tourists and even citizens are reporting being detained. It’s like East Germany or something.
Hold up, tourists? Are we safe to visit family?
Bruh, ask your consulate
At that point I’d rather just avoid the place. It’s not considered safe by our government anyways
Citizens too? I’ve not heard of that. Scary
Yeah, I read it yesterday I think. US citizen lives in Las Vegas and her German boyfriend comes to visit. They travel to Mexico and then were both detained on the way back in. She was released within days, he spent weeks even after volunteering to just go back to Germany. Fucking nuts.
Thats fucked, I’m gonna look for that story. I’ve been seeing lots of stuff (even locally in a relatively progressive state) about trans folks’ documents being confiscated and/or destroyed when they try to leave or get a new or updated passport or sometimes other docs iirc. Please don’t come here, to anyone thinking about it. Period. Unless you’re planning to stay a while and help us out, I don’t recommend it but we will be needing all the help we can get :(
Why would the US need scientists when they have stable geniuses?
AI will fix it.
OpenAI promised us PhD agents! Only 20k a month!
