Anytime someone is running with equipment in a hospital it's definitely because they just stole it from another unit and are trying to flee the scene of the crime: let them. This is the way of things.

Evangelicalism of my youth definitely propped up a faked story about a student martyring herself in Columbine as hashtag goals, this take is consistent with my experience.
@mykola
I have bad news for you about what happens in summers in Arizona... Last summer the Phoenix area had 645 heat related deaths, which was record breaking. So yeah... Concern is warranted. Not everyone has regular access to air conditioning.

Me, back in 2009, taking collegiate Infectious Diseases and learning about Spanish Flu for the first time, then me again reading Pale Rider in like 2018 and learning part of Trump's family wealth was from a goddamn insurance payout from a Spanish Flu death FASCINATING STUFF

Nothing says "support our troops" patriotism like ripping them away from their families and loved ones at the holiday because we didn't want to be inconvenienced.
@roxiqt
This was before the pandemic but all I could think of was how the people who came in sick and unmasked weren't sent home and were the reason I was sick in the first place and how hospital attendance policies and failures in communications/planning would bury us in an emergency 🤐
@punished_cait
I wasn't allowed to donate plasma and by that I mean get the money I needed to buy food because my heart rate was too high but they checked it while I was standing up and I have postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome and it's never been a problem before until this clinic, sigh

I think the kinda folks who would say derogatory things about their partner's appearance are also likely the type who would take out their jealous insecurity on said partner in the wake of such flirtation.
@roxiqt
What's wild is when I worked at a hospital and their absence policy was terrible and I was interviewing for a promotion but any more absence "points" would disqualify so I was forced into a corner because they wouldn't bend on the absence policy until I showed up, masked... Sigh.
@punished_cait
Like guys take it while I'm laying down in the thing I'm going to be laying down in while you take my blood I promise my heart rate will be within a healthy limit when I'm not standing up that's literally how this condition works it's not a danger
@CelesteFinally
Yeahhhhhhhhh it took me 4 years to be taken seriously because crap like that. I found a clinician that specializes in ADHD. Shocker: when you actually evaluate a person instead of blowing them off based on vibes, or whatever, you may come to find they actually have the condition.

Many by default compare to constantly moving targets like "better/worse than yesterday/last month/a year ago" and of worst case scenario, we'll never have context for crisis and collapse. Frogs and boiling water.

Getting my gallbladder out in December fixed a solid 30% of my health complaints from the last five or six years. No one ever even mentioned that gallbladder could contribute to those symptoms. Severe fatigue can be your gallbladder, for those that need to hear that.

To be clear: "we" being those who are business-as-usual right now, gathering inperson, not masking, thinking vaccination status exempts from other precautions, etc instead of treating this like a serious wave of disease and locking down life/cutting nonessential travel/etc
@lisa_iannattone
Some folks need to look into the curious case of the airborne viral hemorrhagic fever amongst some monkeys in a warehouse in the early 90s, The Hot Zone is neither a long nor a difficult read, then extrapolate even the tiniest bit of predictive matrix from what happened there.

When my uncle killed himself I was living in MO but he was in AZ, hospital policy was uncles aren't immediate family for funeral travel excused absence, so i was told i'd have to use an absence point per day (if you get 7 it's termination but over 3 you can't xfer/etc)

Someone once explained this to me after I declined an invitation to a baseball game because I find baseball absurdly boring, and also because I was not doing well financially and didn't want to spend frivolously on an activity I wouldn't enjoy. I had no idea.

Indeed, I was already pro-mask and posting about it years before covid - I worked in a hospital and had a passion for healthcare safety and infection control for exactly this reason!

working in a hospital, forgetting i'm on a neuro floor at the moment, and talking about how half my body went a little numb, my speech is slurring, and my vision has half melted away - oh! *holds out both arms* don't worry, neuro icu staff, just a migraine, see, no stroke!
I wanted this to be fake. What a treasure he was. I don't know how to wrap my head around this. His hands are on so many things that have been so important to my healing journey. This hurts. Zavala, Sylens, Thordak... Thank you for everything, Lance Reddick. Rest well.

DSM-5 is making the awful mistake of turning prolonged grief into a mental disorder:
1)there is no expiration date on grief
2)insults dignity of the loss
3)stigmagizes normal emotions
4)will increase use of unneeded psych meds
Further proof APA can't be trusted supervising DSM.

I worked a 2nd job at a hospital part time to get on their insurance when I was working as a performing musician: nutrition assistant. The Dietician I reported to once remarked that, as far as she cares, eating > not eating. Perfection as good's enemy, and all that jazz.

Person working at ihopkc sees abuse, tries to change it from the inside, within their "sphere of authority," is pushed off staff, (happened to me, the Hesters, others...) then they're told they aren't a part of the community anymore so they shouldn't be trying to govern ihopkc.
@GhawinRiver
It's not that complicated. It may have been involuntary but the moment a person decides to take on that descriptor for it, a conscious voluntary decision, it speaks volumes about your view of sex thus why you don't get any. If you disagree, I don't actually care. Have a nice day.
@haunted4always
ideally the meal is planned such that it can be used in another dish to flavor it, even if it's so simple as frying eggs in bacon grease. collect in a jar or tin, stored in fridge if there are plans to use in another meal when possible, then ultimately to the trash bin.

A manager was once doing a screenshare presentation on zoom but their messenger popups were coming up from the manager group chat and they were clearly all actively mocking an employee's mental health accommodation request WHILE giving the presentation to the entire department.

as an act of vengeance for how bad they wrecked me early game, i now use tearblast on shellsnappers and rip them apart slowly piece by piece (starting with the shell bolts and resource canisters) just like they did to my healing inventory the first time i stumbled upon one.
I was 14 in 8th/9th grade. Here's a picture of me with the drumset I got in 8th grade (traded in my flute to buy it) and the first time I wore makeup to school, when I played upright bass in Orchestra as a high-school freshman.
