She wanted you, all you had to do was act. She thought you were disinterested because you shuffled away so quickly, so she just continued on to the D&D game she DMs down at the local leftist children's hospital.

Damn, do you rub salt into wounds professionally or are you just a really passionate hobbyist?

They do it pro-bono.

There are politically aligned children’s hospitals? Yikes

[–] Schmoo@slrpnk.net 23 points 1 month ago (1 children)

There are politically aligned hospitals, but they're not leftist. They're usually named for some random saint and refuse certain kinds of healthcare to certain kinds of people for religious fundamentalist reasons. Leftist clinics (because they don't get enough funding to build hospitals) exist, but I guess you disapprove since healthcare has nothing to do with politics, right?

Side note: The first paramedics in the US were the Freedom House Ambulance Service, an all-black leftist organization that served local majority-black neighborhoods that received slow service from non-medically trained police. They set the standard for paramedics all over the US.

No? I just didn’t realize there were “political”hospitals, as opposed to regressive and prejudiced laws based around a few motherfucker’s religion being enforced by the state onto hospitals

I was just trying to make her that much more Lemmy-perfect. Forgot to mention her Star Trek-themed Linux distro and fursuit.
