He really learned his lesson at least. Don’t pass amendments you fundamentally oppose to make a point, boys and girls of congress. Especially when you’re so conservative that what seems preposterously progressive to you is acceptable to Mitch McConnell.

I sent this to my bf this AM for this exact reason. In what world were they hopeful and why would they announce that? This wasn’t a 12 year old who could poke it in the eye, it was a toddler and dad couldn’t get him back. So so heartbreaking.

I WISH I could say the same for most of my future doctor colleagues, but I assume many will fall in line :(

I’m from the NW originally, and I went to college and am now at a state medical school in the deep south with lots of young men and women like this. This attitude that you quote ‘“That is a privacy issue. Government has no business getting involved”’ is what bugs me the most about them, though. I get that everyone…

At 24 weeks there are good odds this baby was intubated, or if able to be extubated then attached to oxygen. It also would need a tube down it’s nose to eat. Neonates don’t have the ability to breastfeed at 24 weeks, which some people are commenting on. Generally 34 weeks for nipping attempts.

Weak stomach and was there in December. The original Orlando version of this ride indeed made me very nauseous. But the new one, the Gringott’s one actually did not even though it’s a similar format. It seemed to have less spinning and wide open spaces with good air.

He does sound extremely manic. Hyperreligious and grandiose fit the bill. As does spending all you money on a fake clinic bc you’re an amazing natural healer

If you go to school though, like Bastyr, it can be absurdly expensive. Which is mind blowing to me, a medical student fretting about loans that I will probably pay off before I die. I couldn’t go in 50k a year to be a naturopath.

Mine was Dr. Rentcher. Which was not comforting when I needed a pallet expander...

My mom is a high school vice principal and literally her main concern is that for all the sex kids are definitely having in high school, a lot of it is probably not good sex. They’re figuring out their sexual identities, gender identities, and what they like without any guidance. For a lot of teenagers sex can be a…

Seriously. Admittedly a left coaster, but I remember middle school sex ed covering periods and wet dreams in addition to protected sex, etc. Invaluable with weird shit happening to your body, especially for kids whose parents aren’t big on talking about things like mine. 9th grade mandatory sex ed writing names for…

I cried on my way to work this morning about it and again reading this page. I’m taking this one hard. Harry Potter and Sense and Sensibility are some of the main things that I love to watch over and over again, that I watch as guilty pleasure, and I watch when I’m sad.

My dad read a chapter aloud to me and my brother every night starting a bit younger than that, and even though we were probably too old by the middle books it became such a tradition he read them for years. They’re honestly some of my favorite memories. We’d also listen to them on tape for hours happily on road trips.

My parents told me that the lyrics to Guns n Roses Paraise City were “take me back to Prairie Dog City.” Because I liked prairie dogs in elementary school and used to draw them and write books about them.

I once caught my psych teacher reading a book called the Hypomanic Edge, about how lots of historical figures probably were crazy risk takers with too much energy and that applies to lots of people starting businesses. It’s probably in some part applying an idea/medical diagnosis to the circumstances, but the crazy…

Does this mean National Treasure is real?

Yeah, that’s like the only one of these I’m really sure about. And Eliz, of course

A doctor’s office I worked at stuck little pieces of paper with information on DV resources in the bathrooms that women could stick in their socks, just in case that’s the only place they could be alone. I hoped it helped someone at some point.

Yeah, wait, just in a personal way I just need to keep on keeping on with my non-virginal sex to avoid these people? Deal.

Pretty much the exact same here, and it wasn’t even something I would assume to be the case at other people’s homes. I don’t know, maybe naked-friendly people are better at setting boundaries and talking about it because if you keep all nudity hush-hush it sends a clear message that being naked(and your naked body) is…
