Totally sounds like carpal tunnel syndrome. Repair is super simple and has a really good success rate. Usually just a little moderate sedation and half an hour later it’s fixed. It does take a few weeks to recover, but most people I see say it’s totally worth it.

You’re right. Almost makes me think it might be photoshopped.

At minimum every Sunday. Also after work depending on what time I get home; I have a very variable schedule. So I guess, every chance I get.

Yes, facing adversity does build resilience. However, creating adversity for another just because YOU had to face it is wrong. I had a professor who called our career a “brotherhood of suffering” and would purposely create artificial stumbling blocks and make things more difficult because he had the same done to him. It’s perpetrating a cycle of abuse. I’ve now gotten to the point where I’ve taught in university and in the hospital and I try to break that cycle. It’s still a very difficult path, the content and pace are still taxing. Many still don’t make it to graduation, why make it harder then it needs to be?

Darkest of Days. You’re one of Custer’s soldiers at Little Big Horn who gets recruited to be a time cop and travel around the timeline fighting in historical battles with ridiculous futuristic weapons to create “balance” or something.

That’s a full-on Burt Meownolds 'stache

Gross, olives.

I was thinking the opposite. I have 1 option for “high speed” in my town, and it’s $90 for 12Mbps that rarely actually gets to that speed. I just barely switched to starlink and it’s been amazing.

Sorry, I mean the “collective we.” Of course individuals do build compassion, but look at the state of America and tell me that the collective we is different than I stated.

Totally wouldn’t work. We Americans believe in a brotherhood/sisterhood of suffering. If we suffered, we believe that others NEED to suffer as well. It’s why nurses are terrible to new nurses, why so many people are against forgiving student debt, and why so many parents refuse to acknowledge their children’s issues. It’s all “I lived through it and it sucked, so you need to too,” mentality. We didn’t build compassion though suffering, we just wish it on others, too.

Yeah, the need for nurses is growing daily, fewer people are choosing the career and more are leaving because nursing earlier because of the stress and abuse. But another major reason for long waits is that a lot of the people in the ER are there utilizing it as a primary care provider because they don’t have insurance to be able to get day to day care or they don’t go to an urgent care office. So many people are in the ER for antibiotics, cuts, scrapes, minor burns and breaks that really don’t need to be seen in the ER, adding to the long waits for people who do need to be there.

ChatGPT, write me a manifesto

Only one way to see if that’s the reason…

I used to joke with my surgeons that I’m running out of quarters to put in the anesthesia machine. Pretty soon it’s not going to be a joke.

“Motive remains unknown.” Lol

Hey, I live there and someone just posted on our local Facebook page asking where to get some raw milk. I’ll send them a link.

Don’t ask me how Dr Bier and August Hildebrandt researched spinal anesthesia.

I sold about $200 in Bitcoin I mined back in the early days, like 2009 and 10. Missed out on over $80 million.

No need. They work on entirely different mechanisms of action and are metabolized differently as well. They actually work synergistically when taken together with no increased risk over taking them separately.
