@Nicole66640666 @shujaxhaider It’s a real problem in the industry that also doesn’t get neatly resolved by the end of a single shift. In that sense, the way the show portrays it is very realistic, which is what the show is trying to be

@jannatesq @shujaxhaider I think it’s fair to look at that ending scene & wish they showed just how destructive that type of treatment is. It’s a real life problem in the industry. It’s weird to me that you can’t express that opinion wo belittling comments that have this weird misogynistic undertone.

here's my problem with "the pitt": the way the season turned out was NOT the same as the way i depicted it on my kitchen table using my homemade "the pitt" character dolls and impersonating all of their voices. and i think we all need to talk about that

@Nicole66640666 @shujaxhaider The show acknowledges it by showing it and assuming the viewers will understand that the show does not promote everything Robby does. No one needs to look in the camera and say “by the way, this is wrong and not okay”

@shujaxhaider Notice the patronizing “playing with dolls” comment to criticism that the show’s failure to acknowledge Robby’s treatment of his female subordinates is problematic. I think the blatant misogyny with this comment is something we all need to talk about.

@facetedcarapace @theashleyray And also, the show is about representing the experience of healthcare workers, which of course includes burnout, trauma, and depression. I don’t even understand how people don’t get that

@elle_bjay @djoyousone @annikaClarke7 @thatcutepothead The main rule is being separated and living apart for a year in order to get a divorce. The exception is if you don’t have minor children, you can get divorced after 6 months of no cohabitation and separation. If you have minor children, the main rule would apply

I read Virginia’s divorce laws and the women of Virginia need to be on their state legislature to change them asap. Dr. Cerina might still be here if not for the bs systems men put in place to control women.

No one is entitled to a political career, and accusations of violent crimes should absolutely make people question whether someone should be in public office. And if someone is about to get a prestigious position, then that’s a totally logical time to bring up those accusations
Tim Anderson@AssocAnderson

I knew Justin Fairfax. Our paths crossed during my first run for the General Assembly. Every interaction I had with him was professional, respectful, and measured. What happened to him politically should make everyone uncomfortable—regardless of party. At the exact moment Ralph Northam was facing collapse over the blackface scandal, allegations surfaced against Fairfax that effectively ended his political future overnight. He was never charged. He was never prosecuted. And once his career was over, the allegations faded from public view just as quickly as they appeared. That pattern—unproven allegations surfacing at the precise moment someone is about to rise politically—is not new. We’ve seen it play out nationally with figures like Brett Kavanaugh and Clarence Thomas. Whether you believe those claims or not, the timing is always the same—and the damage is always permanent. Now we’re watching the aftermath of a life that, by any objective measure, was derailed in a matter of weeks. And the same political class that stood by—or benefited—at the time is now offering thoughts and prayers. That’s the part that ought to turn your stomach. If we’re going to be honest about accountability in this country, it has to cut both ways. Destroying someone publicly without due process, without proof, and without consequence is not justice. It’s politics at its worst. And it keeps happening because it works.

@FatherChrisVor1 Thank you, Father. Muslims do not need to pray out loud, but I appreciate your explanation and the space the Vatican allows for Islamic scholars.

I can’t imagine why this has to be answered again, but here goes. Because there are Islamic scholars who professionally use the library. Muslims pray five times a day on a very strict schedule. They do not just pray sitting down quietly. They have physical gestures to do and words that need to be spoken out loud. The scholars asked if there would be a room that they could go to where they could privately do their thing without interrupting any of the other library patrons. The Vatican said yes, and provided them with a small space.

@FatherChrisVor1 And why did he put a muslim prayer room in the vatican?

@kenzianidiot So my piece of advice would be to make it your safe comfy space in terms of decorating however you want and making it cozy and special for you so you always have somewhere to come home to

@kenzianidiot A lot of these are safety tips, but I’ve lived alone for years, and it is both safer and more joyful than it seems. I don’t want to discount the danger we feel as women, but I want to present another pov, which is that living alone is awesome because you can do whatever you want
