Shouldn't they have been closed anyway on account of the hurricane?? Lol. People aren't supposed to be traveling

This echos for healthcare workers and social services too. You can't imagine the physical and verbal abuse. Especially if you work in the ED. Where I work, we have self-defense and workplace violence training every year. Statistics say something like 30-60% have been assaulted before (a very easy Google). There's so much more that goes un-reported.

And yeah, sometimes it's the legitimate agitated patient with altered mental status, but more than often it's just shitty entitled people who would normally go to jail, except they do it in the hospital setting and it gets swept under the rug. Because management sucks, and police sucks.

Ah, whoosh on my part. I didn't want to assume anybody's background or understanding!๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜†

Yay! I started a community over on Squabbles for a bit, and it was primarily another mod and I posting content. Unfortunately they went MIA, so I've been bummed out about that because they were pretty active lol. Tried to find an etymology community on Lemmy, so I joined the Kbin one, after which I realized it was a bit dead and there was no one running it. So here we are. :)

Awesome!๐Ÿ˜

I'd say focus on sharing etymology findings for now. I'm not some linguistics professor or anything โ€“ just an amateur who created this community for fun. Maybe we could sustain more question posts once there are enough knowledgable subscribers to answer them. (I'm hoping some experts would discover the community actually, and maybe hop on as mods). :)

Edit: I just updated the community rules so clarify that question posts are allowed, as long as you please attempt to at least Google it yourself first. ๐Ÿ˜†

Hello all! I just created an Etymology community since I noticed there wasn't a local one for those of us on LemmyWorld. Hope to see it grow. :)

So awesome to see Bathory on here. I love Hammerheart. A must listen for any lover of the Viking metal genre and so raw - literally recorded out of a garage.

Here's a good read by Quorthon (songwriter) from the Blood and Ice sleeve notes. He talks a lot about the recording process of Hammerheart as well: http://bathory.freehosting.net/blood_on_ice_intro.html
