  • It’s not that fantastical, it’s resembles a small town and has aboveground buildings as well. The underground dwellings are mostly rented to tourists nowadays.

    Few things I remember from there around ~10 years ago:

    Coober Pedy literally means ‘White Man’s Warrens’ in Aborogeni.

    You have yo register your ID to buy alcohol and are limited to 2 beers/1 spirit per day because the aborogenies keep getting tourists to buy them hooch.

    The 1st part pf the Vin Disel Riddick Epic ‘Pitch Black’ was filmed there and the full size spaceship prop is still in place.

    The Didoche, a survival manual for christian communities during the roman persecution era, teaches that any stranger that arrives at your door should be fed and clothed for 3 days, after which point they need to make their own way in the community or move on.

    Giving strangers the benefit of the doubt or taking care of those with legitimate disabilities =/= taking care of junkies or lowlifes for the duration of their lifespan .






  • Its a complex topic. On the one hand, retard police routinely put people who are violent but not for psych reasons on psych holds because it’s less paperwork, and makes them the health systems problem instead of theirs.

    On the other hand, psych nursing and medsurg nursing are two different skillsets and most medsurg nurses dont know their ass from emvironmental safety.

    On the third hand, Doctors tend to be activist dipshits that routinely put staff’s safety at risk by undermedicating.

    Is any of this the fault of people going through a legitimate crisis event? No.
