“My bad behavior is some woman’s fault.”

SPOILER ALERT: Women turn out to be human, just like Tucker Max allegedly is. What a shocking turn of events that absolutely no one could have predicted when his moronic first book was published!

Cool stories, bros.

what women want in a guy :

Found the vegan!

My father (a professor) had a student once with a really sick-minded friend.

Also, Prince of Penzance’s jockey, Michelle Payne, was the first woman jockey to win that particular race, and sounds like a total badass.

It was such a great moment in Aussie sport when Prince of Penzance won. Michelle Payne, the youngest of ten, whose mother died in a car crash when she was young, beat the odds to become the first female jockey to win the Melbourne cup and using her speech to call out the “chauvinists” in the sport and telling them to…

As a nurse, I can confirm that there are a lot of mean nurses. They are mean for a variety of reasons, but there are lots of assholes in the profession. Ignoring this and romanticising nurses only perpetuates the bullshit message of nurses as angels/natural caregivers and not what they really are: hard-working medical…

Once I accompanied my teenage brother to court back in the small town where we grew up so he could contest a traffic ticket (he lost). Before he was called up, another young guy’s name was called and the judge read the charges (shoplifting I think) and then asked the guy if he had a lawyer. The guy said he couldn’t…

In general, I think there’s a wide swath of things doctors are good at diagnosing and dealing with. When it comes to uncommon, harder to diagnose stuff, though, I’ve found them to do significantly less well. Disastrously less well, in my case. And what bothers me isn’t so much that they are struggling to diagnose and…

Thanks! But yeah I would really love to see an all-encompassing discussion about healthcare that includes all the little people. The lab techs, yes I’m biased, but also the phlebotomists, the xray techs, the surg techs, the nursing assistants, the medical assistants, the transport staff, I could go on.
I had some great…

I posted this on Kitchenette but want to share here then I will step aside and others can share.

Fuck nursing. I mean, nurses are great. But much like teachers they are getting the shaft. My mom is an O.R. nurse. (And, frankly, a badass.) That profession ruined her body and has given her nothing in return. She’s in her 60s and only works part time these days (Thankfully, out of loyalty, not out of need. My dad…

I am a female physician. I did my residency in the 1990s and I remember the nurses as a godsend. We had to run the ER as residents when we were one year out of medical school. It was a busy urban ER and drug overdoses and end stage HIV (it was during the height of the epidemic and there was no great treatment) as well…

If my ex’s gf ever tried to contact me, I’d tell them this;

Shit’s not so bad. That’s hilarious.

One of the women my husband cheated with was a church member we both knew and hung out with. I sent her a message on Facebook telling her to go get an STD screening because she wasn’t the first person he’s fucked around with since we’ve been together.
