Remember the scene from Office Space where Peter tells his therapist that every day is worse than the one before? Meaning that every day he wakes up is the worst day of his life. Yeah, I think about this a lot these days.

I volunteer at a food pantry. This is absolutely correct.
"For every meal that a food bank provides, the SNAP program provides nine. There's no way we can meet that gap. There's no way we can replace every single one of those meals. It is not sustainable for food banks to fill this gap. We were not built to do this."

The approaches to identical attacks are completely incompatible, because they focus on DIFFERENT PEOPLE. If a Republican is attacked, they focus on the attacker. What would make him do it? If a Democrat is attacked, they focus on the victim. What did they do to provoke it?

Experts say the trend paints a troubling picture of the harms of unnecessary delays in care.
