i had great care at the hospital and good aftercare. the major complaint was they didn't explain to me how serious mild sepsis is. i thought being mild sepsis was no big deal and i would recover in 3 or 4 weeks. i found out it will take months or possibly years. if i knew it would have made it easier

Some people are too often too proud to announce that "they suck at science or maths". It's a major problem in our society, how being "dumb in an area (any)" is considered quirky or cool, and it keeps them from trying to get better at it.
Learning about everything is important (history, geography, literature, arts, languages...), but in the case of science, the rejection of it in the contemporary world by a significant portion of the population (and organizations) worries me. Science has become the bad guy.
There is zero judgment in me in anyone's "ability" (and access) to learn something - what we sadly call many forms of ""intelligence"" -, but there is in wanting to learn it.
And yet, it doesn't take any type of high intelligence to learn the most important : rather than the results of science, how science works. Its methods and principles. In other words, anyone can learn it, but we are made to believe that it is unachievable unless we do very well at school or have impressive degrees. 100% false, and there are people who profit from us holding that belief.
The consequences of a society not understanding these principles are and will be devastating.
- I am not closed to discussion, but I won't be able to hold one here. It's just a complaint. Thanks for understanding. ^^

At this current time it's the cost of contractor's beyond obscene pricing (not particularly a subjective observation for those of us who are not millionaires etc.) $14,000 out of pocket (or more by the end) of repiping a very small house that only has a couple of lines in it......And then the games the contractors play with you on several levels creating additional fears around city permits and added costs of having to replace other things like a 10 year old water heater which has nothing wrong with it. Yada yada yada.......
When I move it will be to a rental situation. It seems the only thing that makes any sense in my world and situation.
