Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:

- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Side note, why is she bringing her scrubs outside the hospital? Don't you return them after your shift in America, to be washed and such?
No people own and wash their own scrubs. Healthcare is for shareholder profits in America.
I'm wearing scrubs at work right now which I'm solely responsible for keeping & washing at home regularly.
You have a noble profession, IMO. 🩵
What are you assuming is my profession?
Something something hospital. Would you like to share?
I'm a massage therapist 😄
The preceding conversation taught me that scrub-wearing people who work in hospitals don't wear their scrubs outside the facility & don't have to wash them themselves, they leave their scrubs at work and there's a separate crew responsible for scrubs laundry.
My life is not like that.
The worst filth my scrubs ever encounter are my own body sweat & occasional massage lotion mishaps.
Hey, massage therapy is good for well-being, too. 🩵 Maybe not as "noble" per se but it's a good service for those that afford it. 😁✌️
Cocaine nasal insufflation?
Did you mean to reply to me?
Yeah I was just making a dumb joke because we don’t know wise their profession is.
Do you mean why did ICE abduct her from work inside the hospital and drag her outside kicking & screaming without giving her a chance to change her clothes?
No.
But if that's what happened, I have the answer to my question.
I'm also wondering why ICE abducted her period, not really specifically from where. 👍 But like I said, this was a side note.
Sign this paper saying you won't talk about this and we'll let you go.
According to the secret stuff law, if you talk about this we'll arrest you again.
Pick one.
These are likely not the drab, standard, facility-provided surgical or operating scrubs that even the I.T. staff has to change in to (or don over top) before crossing the red line into a clean zone, 'red' room or room with isolation precautions. These are the other personally-supplied garments staff wear to look professional in a medical setting. These are the same ones that are sometimes replaced with T-shirts and such on casual friday or department-coordinated Hallowe'en costumes on October 31.
Ah okay, that makes sense. Thank you.
Depends on where you work. They provide them at my hospital, but I still wear a privately owned pair when traveling between home and work.
Why do you wear your own scrubs to and from work?
Also curious.
Maybe because they are comfortable?
Maybe? Maybe because Satan’s cock is lodged in your anus?
Satan is a bottom, it's actually Poseidons cock.
Can’t touch the bottom, in too deep.
That classic 9-11-hadn't-even-happened-yet kinda vibe. I feel like every day was sunny back in those days, man. Just outside Mama's house, practicing my kick flips. Day after day.
sometimes; my mum doesn't do that often, preferring to wash them at home. in her words, when asked why, she said: "the detergent the hospital uses smells like used clorox wipes left out in the sun and then freezed for 1 day". how she knows what that smells like is beyond me...
It's written on the detergent bottle.
huh...you're probably right...
No, US hospitals let nurses carry in bacteria and carry out bacteria into the community.
That's the first thing that came to mind, like, wouldn't you want to contain that mess? Wash instantly?
