For procedures typically you will be provided an estimate with several line items, not just “neuter” but like:

-exam fee

-surgeon call fee

-OR use fee

-y tubing set

-venous access

-suture pack x1

-anesthesia fee

-anesthesia tech fee

Etc etc etc. For example some vet places will break things down to the individual parts of IV access, I mean any product that gets opened will have its own line. Other places bundle the IV access to a larger charge that includes all the individual pieces.

Thank you for not outright saying short pump lol but no, I think it’s because I work in science/medicine so there’s apparently a significant bias in that group.

Personally I have always hated casinos, they weaponize one of the sweetest human emotions (hope) to efficiently extract money from people who are almost always not rich.

I’m looking into an LLC for when I buy a house because I don’t want my name to be that easily searchable in public records. My partner has gotten death threats at work due to the nature of her job. It wouldn’t be hard to see who holds the LLC but just that small obstacle would probably stop some unhinged people from finding our address.

Cow catchers on the front of cop cars are specifically dangerous and increase risk of death of struck pedestrians. Cops have them because they don’t care about killing civilians, they care about looking cool. So I would extend that and say yeah the trucks are probably just to look cool.
