Did you know: the Catholic Church is exempt from state and local unemployment tax and therefore employees cannot collect unemployment if laid off

Of course we can treat all suffering in the world as a numerical quantity to be optimized. After all, everyone means the same thing when they rate a pain 4/10 on an ordinal scale, right?

Way less impressive than it sounds - THE TRIAL OF VOID

Lol

Asking utilitarians if they’d rather remove 1 percent of skin from 100 people or 100 percent of skin from 1 person

Beef Season 2 on Netflix gains points for correctly demonstrating that you can’t rule out ovarian torsion with ultrasound, but loses points for incorrectly depicting the effect of having one ovary on subsequent fertility

What it feels like to have poison ivy

My fifth grade teacher made all her classes memorize and recite the Gettysburg Address. We should be doing that instead of the pledge of allegiance

I love to walk around oozing and yelling “aughh my lesions!”

I wish I was a cenobite so I could experience this poison ivy as pleasure-pain rather than pain-pain

I didn’t get along with “premeds” in college, and did not identify with them. Probably because my first introduction was one who told me about how he got his sex crimes expunged (he washed out of his program quickly, now in another field)

In college there was a “premed” in my entomology class who got behind on his bug collection (worth a large part of our grade) and stole specimens from other students. Prof found out, made him take the final before failing him. Idk what happened to that guy. Probably works in insurance or something

Washing the pen stained clothes with milk was surprisingly effective. Unfortunately some of my clothes now smell like milk

my dad thought mail from the AMA selling disability insurance was for him because it said Dr. ______. But actually it was for me as I will be granted this title shortly.

thank you ubrelvy for this food we are about to receive from thy bounty,

Sometimes private practice guys talk about mediocrities hiding in academic medicine. Honestly after seeing some of the mismanaged cases that get punted to university affiliated docs from the community I’m inclined to think the opposite. You need to be surrounded by learners and the latest evidence

Absolutely

Pen exploded in the wash so I’m trying the washing your clothes in milk trick. Surprisingly effective. Better living through chemistry

anyway giving him steroids for another exacerbation. Probably triggered by the wildfire smoke

my dog has copd. Didn’t even smoke they just get chronic bronchitis when they’re old apparently

Found a cool stick

Had to pack up the pets and stay with a friend because there’s a wildfire at an oil refinery right near my house

Protip: on exam, patients with myasthenia gravis may have weakness of the medial rectus that resembles an internuclear ophthalmoplegia. The way you distinguish this is by testing convergence (should be intact in pure INO).

Uhhh chebs. Uni flat A levels

What lol

Oh no he’s still alive. He proved a very important point: it’s cool and prosocial to inject yourself with snake venom

That guy who got bitten by hundreds of snakes intentionally to either die or prove a very important point is, in my view, the latest exponent of a time honored tradition of self experimentation at the bleeding edge of medicine
