Yet Iceland, despite being a smaller country can do this: "They have more patients and about half the staff of the NGS, yet in two years they eliminated their 700 person waiting list. They usually only need 30-45 minutes of assessment, and in their intensive weeks they’d start 30 people on HRT"
Your referral will be old enough to drink by the time the NGS sees you.

![[Scene is a domestic kitchen. Night time. The room is all blue apart from warm orange-pink light streaming in from a streetlight outside. In the center of the room stands a woman named BRANDI, standing in pyjamas looking contemplative, the light cast dramatically on her face. At the doorway, leaning against the frame, her partner JOEL stands has woken up and found her in the kitchen.]
JOEL:
Honey… what are you doing?
BRANDI:
Can’t sleep
Guess I just like standing in the kitchen at 3am thinking about the supernatural threat we temporarily defeated last year.
While saying that out loud in a manner which sounds casually ironic but is actually just blatant exposition.
JOEL:
Brandi… you're talking strange...
BRANDI:
Dammit Joel.
It’s time you knew.
You're a Netflix character.

BRANDI:
Everybody you know has been forced to speak to you in second screen dialogue.
Second screen dialogue helps the people scrolling their phones in front of the TV to follow the -
JOEL:
Stop explaining, Brandi!

I think he shows why Trump being a dogshit president temporarily solves many of the Democrats' worst problems with the media. And we have to take advantage of this moment.

This is what ICE does every day. Hunt little kids who are here legally. They get sent to a place called the “baby jail” in Texas. Very little of it ends up on video like this. But it’s routine. And disgusting.

Franzi Schimmer captured this Grizzly bear in Brooks Falls, Alaska just floating along, tippy-tapping down the river, browsing the salmon.
Prior to hibernation, up to 40% of a bear's body mass is fat, which is less dense than water (~0.9 g/cm^2), so the murder-monster is also a floaty-boaty.
