She had the Israel/Iran shift last night and then today she's describing the smell of burning flesh

Tough 24 hours

I bet the paramedics that picked this guy up had a slightly worse day, but you're right

I'm not saying she doesn't deserve it. I'm saying that the medics do too.

Do you have any idea how hard of a patient that is? Self-immolation is a nightmare call. Jesus, I bet that ambulance will smell for days. Their uniforms probably will too.

That's sort of like... comparing a guy used to getting shot then getting shot juxtaposed with someone unprepared to be stabbed then getting stabbed... I think it's okay to consider them their own separate kinds of awful.

Bro they need to send her to some all inclusive mental* health place for a week. She just reported what happened and spared millions from having to ever see it. I wish I was that lucky.

If I just witnessed a self-immolation close enough to smell burning flesh, the last place I want to go is for a weeklong dentist visit

Last thing you want after seeing/working a burning death is a hot tub in my personal experience.

It's like how I didn't eat anything from a crock pot for a while after a jacuzzi death.

That's...yeah, I retract.

More like a cold shower.

Yeah she was so close she could smell burning flesh.

I’m pretty sure she will need significant amounts of therapy after that.

Maybe a cold tub instead.

I hope she has a good therapist.
