…,I’m pretty good at starting convo posts, lemme think a second before I give that a shot.

That seems to be mostly news Articles and interested laypeople. I need a community where I can bitch about patients throwing piss and punches and me and console others with similar stories.

Leaving the tide pools. Possibly even forming proteins to begin with. I much more enjoyed being stardust.

I wish I could find more Healthcare workers. My computer skills make me a bit of an odd duck in hcw spaces, but the fact that there’s none on this end doesn’t help the isolation either.

I dream of one day being a famous copypasta author.

This is just proof of the peak performance of CHONK. Prioritizing energy storage is a great strategy utilized by many different organisms even as distantly related as animals and plants. You can afford to send out more shoots than a seraphim has eyes when you were born from the ground gently swaddled in a metric fuckton of starch you generational wealth inheriting bastard. But like it or not, this is peak evolutionary performance.

Truth.

I was waiting for someone else to comment because I was hoping they would know and I just wanted to say that you really let me down, man.

Situational awareness. I’ve had people look me up and down and ask how I handle the patient population I do considering I’m kinda skinny-fat and like

a) I’m a lot stronger than I look, especially with adrenaline in me one time I picked up one of the weighted dayroom chairs because I needed to get to a patient and it was in my way

b) 99% of it isn’t even fighting people anyway it’s mostly just having an ear for bullshit. One time we had a patient set off one of the safety alarms in their room and waited in the dark behind the door for someone to come answer it. I got there, saw the darkened room with the weird alarm going off and just noped the fuck out and called security.

If you have the common sense of every guy in the horror film that says,“Absofuckinglutely not” (and you don’t mind being paid pennies) psychiatric nursing calls to you.

Brains that run faster than average are very cool and impressive to people who don’t have to live in them.

I looked him up on YouTube because I wanted to see what you meant and all the comments say he’s been replaced with AI.

Damn. That show got weird.

Endometriosis is uterine tissue forming outside of the uterus and can be associated with a number of side effects (some of which can be dangerous) including mood swings. We’ve officially come full circle on diagnosing hysteria.

What red flags? He’s a solid, hardworking, and nonjudgmental family man! Unless in the later seasons I haven’t seen he becomes a shithead?

Zuko from AtLA, but part of that was also a deep experiential empathy for his character growth arc. Also sometimes having undefined gender issues at the same time makes it really hard to tell whether a feeling like that is attraction or envy.

One of my favorites in highschool and made EDM my favorite genre (well, that and playing speed over Beethoven in DDR). My faves now are apashe and avicii. If anyone knows any EDM that incorporates classical elements (especially strings and/or piano) I am ALL ears.

This was like two years ago and I’ve never had an issue. Have some faith in humans.

I just taught my coworkers how to pirate shit. Fuck Disney.

The logic behind it is that it’s a bribe “tip”-based system. The “tips” often provide more than a living wage, so it really works out better this way!
