Would "just throw the whole thing away" (as in throw it into the trash) be a more fitting translation for the sentiment than "let it rot" then?

I think it's that "removed" is what some Lemmy clients will show unless you change your settings to not filter swear words. I don't think anyone is actually typing removed in their comments

Or even Ho Mobile, as in a phone company

Highly agree. I love fishkeeping, so finding a dude that likes it too would be great... as long as they semi-understand what they're talking about. No tropical fish without heaters, or tanks that aren't properly cycled for example...

I have to say, being on Medicaid through college showed just how true this is. Being able to put my health first, rather than worry about if I could afford a doctor visit (or an ER visit), was great. The peace of mind of knowing that I would pay $0 for ANYTHING medical lead to me putting my health first.

The one potential charge you could get was for going to the ER for something deemed a "non-emergency." Even then I didn't worry about whether I could go to the ER after whiffing it off my longboard and smacking my head into the pavement because... well, the non-emergency charge was $8.

Tell this to all the "entry level" positions that wanted 3-5 years of experience. Searching for a CS job with just a degree was terrible.

That's not to say I disagree with you though. Entry level should be the actual entry point into a field

So during not-summer who is stocking shelves? My guess to your answer is that high schoolers will, but then who will work fast food restaurants during school hours?

Too many jobs are considered "entry level". If people used them as stepping stone jobs, the companies would cease to function properly.

For example my father thinks that all fast food positions except Manager are entry level. But I can guarantee you he'd be pissed if only the manager was working in the mornings when he wants coffee.

I... I'm not convinced it's a bot though. There are normal comments in the account history

I'm confused on where the walmart line is coming from, am I missing something?

Even with an MRI showing that my mom's breast cancer has likely metastasized to her spine, she has to wait 2 weeks to see the Orthopedist. Just for the consultation, not 2 weeks for surgery. America is fucking bonkers on wait times. Imagine being in debilitating pain with tens of lesions in your spine and being told you have to just deal with it for 2 weeks before you even know what it is for sure.

As much as I shit on Iowa/the Midwest USA, they are a wonderful place for this

Same. This is exactly what happens to me. Along with letting someone know at the beginning of a friendship that "hey sometimes people perceive me as an asshole or overly sensitive" and getting "oh I don't think you seem like that at all" only for them to tell me I'm an asshole or sensitive months later... and I don't feel like I've changed how I act at all in that time
