My wife has issues involving texture and trauma specifically at the dentist office, so I usually accompany her to appointments. So far no office has had an issue.
One time though, she needed to have those spacers put in her teeth, and she told the dentist and hygienist that she would throw up if it was in too long, and that she WILL bite down if there's sharp pain, so use slightly more local anesthetic than normal and wait a little longer for it to work well.
They rushed.
She bit.
The moment I heard the cry of pain and felt my wife squeezing my hand super hard, I already knew what happened without having to look around anything.
I just said "And that's why we told you to wait longer. You were warned."
They were Super chill about everything, all things considered. I know I'd be pissed if I got bit by someone while doing my job, even if that job was literally their teeth.
i don't care about this post and I think @startek.whatever is probably full of libs but I gotta say I am super envious of having registered "miles o'brien" on @startrek.liberals, like that's some gold tier username there. godspeed, commander
Lmao calling me a liberal is an insult
Miles Obrien understands the importance of a union, and the importance of the people who actually make the wealth for the owning class.
Miles Obrien also understands that fascists should be stopped at all fronts, including your precious dictator states.
I'm sure you'll use your spotlight to throw around more school yard insults about people's intelligence or political leanings, or post gifs or emoji, but all you'll get from me is pity.
I wish you wouldn't believe what those very plutocrats you disavow tell you about Cuba.
Cuba, the "dirty evil communist" country that only struggles because of a bullshit embargo placed on them by people who are dead and whose opinions are irrelevant to modern day?
The Cuba that churns out so many doctors, they basically have to leave the country to find work because they have so many doctors already?
The Cuba that, if I bothered to look at quality of life statistics would almost all point to "Cuba is a generally well run country but suffers because of trade bullshit"?
That Cuba?
Or you could try bringing up ~~occupied Palestine~~ "Israel", I'm sure you'll have your "gotcha" moment there!
I don't see what the Zionist entity has to do with this, it's not like they claim to be communist (though that would be a funny bit). I was talking about your reference to "dictator states" since Cuba surely is one of them, being communist.
then what fucking "dictator states" have your panties all fucking twisted then, because if you think Cuba Good but somehow the AuThOrItARiAnISm of China or the DPRK is "too much" then idk, you're ideologically incoherent
I called your dumb fucking lemmyv instance liberal without a word about you other than COOL USERNAME and then you immediately decided to display your liberal ass like a baboon on a mating kick
