I wouldn't hate too much on Kim K. She's trying to do the right thing and she's already insisting her kid do more than most of the kids (college students) I instruct have done.

Maybe I'm just trying to find more reasons to despise Kim, but come on. Maybe your parents didn't give you EVERYTHING you wanted, but it's not like they were buying your wardrobe from Target. At least she worked for something I guess. But goddamn the tone deafness.

She's not complaining about her parents being mean. She's talking about instilling a good work ethic in your children, regardless of how wealthy you are.

Uneven eyebrows

I'm not familiar with South African sentencing precedents, and ten months seems like a pitiful length of time to serve for what Pistorius did. But five years does seem reasonable, given Judge Masipa's verdict. And I realise this isn't a popular feeling, but Masipa's finding was probably the right one.

You saw Dina's hair and you're questioning the necklace??

Right?! Like, MRSA and other antibiotic resistant infections, influenza, etc. are way easier to catch and transmit than Ebola. Are nurses never supposed to leave their house because they've been around a highly infectious disease? And the reason she left is none of our fucking business, either. She followed the…

Yo Jezebel, get your shit together about how you're covering this CDC/Ebola/Nurses thing. In one post you're vilifying Nurse Vinson for traveling even though she was told by the CDC that their protocols for caring for Duncan were adequate/she was at low risk, and then giving her the OK to fly, and in another you're…

This is so typical of how hospitals are run. They throw nurses into situations they are not prepared for and expect them to magically save the institutions' ass by flawlessly performing procedures without adequately training them.

What is this insane new rush to place all the blame for this solely on Mr. Duncan's supposed "lies"? Comments like this one are all over the Buzzfeed and HuffPost articles, with supposedly concerned people whinging about "All this just because one selfish man lied.." Even if Mr. Duncan had outright attempted to…

If it were actually airborne, a fuck ton more people than these two health care workers would be symptomatic by now, including Duncan's family. The two people who ended up sick are about the two people you'd expect: health care workers who would have been in close proximity to a symptomatic person's bodily fluids,…

So I finally got around to reading some official numbers and source data on the outbreak, published by the New England Journal. Because, like everyone, I was starting to feel like there was so much panic.

If he's palliative care only, and he's thrashing around calling out "mama mama," and the problem with the narcotics is that they lower is O2 sats, I would feel uncomfortable ethically speaking in holding off on narcotics. Morphine treats air hunger. His O2 sats being low when he has COPD and is on death's door isn't…

Note to self: Before signing over DPOA to someone, make sure that said person is ok with me receiving narcotics so that I'm not thrashing around and screaming "mama, mama" from the pain of dying. Also, I will make sure that the person I give DPOA to doesn't think that it's impossible for doctors to adjust the levels…

She killed 38 patients? 38?

Nurses are required to treat patient reports of pain. Family members do not get to decide no pain medicine for a family member. I can only imagine that someone on "death's door" is probably in a fair amount of pain.

I'm going to reserve judgement until we find out how annoying these people were.

It's not just Texas, it's endemic to health care in the United States in general. Very few adults actually have primary care physicians anymore, so when they get sick they either go to an urgent care facility or the ER. If health care was affordable, or more people were willing to be general practitioners, this man…

they could call it Orange is the New Jersey.

It's almost like going on a reality show when you make a living through illegal activities is a really stupid idea.
