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…

I just have to say, I love nurses. My parents are nurses, my wife is a nurse, my aunt is a nurse, and nurses have been the best advocates for me whenever I’m hospitalized (which is, sadly, far too often.) Ya’ll are doing amazing work, and I wouldn’t have made it these last 29 years without the help of nurses.

Calm down - they will take rates up by a quarter point every three months... not even worth talking about until we get a year into it.

Many years ago at the group home for developmentally disabled teens where I worked there was a resident who really, really wanted to go to the best steak house in the city for his 18th birthday. He had behavior and anger issues, but was determined to earn that birthday dinner, and he managed it. So another staff…

Phew! I was having a minor breakdown (spamming F5) because BCO was two minutes late.

as a country, we need to finally admit that Fireball is horrible

I’m just thinking how long it would take to feed 150 people out of a food truck!

There was a house in the neighborhood that was consistantly rented to the lowest bunch of pond scum this side of the primordial ooze. Once, there was a couple of guys that actually worked on their motorcycles in the living room. Then one night, the house mysteriously burned to the ground. Problem solved.

I believe the proper name for a group of teenage girls is a gossip.

Totally agreed. I love the different perspective on people I don’t particularly like. I’m certain they have tried to book Donald Trump for years, which would get my dander up, but I’d still listen and wouldn’t write in hate mail to NPR or threaten to cancel my annual giving.

Thanks! It's just the tip of the iceberg of mildly OCD things. I think lifehacker's the only place where tons of structure and foreward planning are wholeheartedly endorsed— my gf thinks I'm slightly crazy.

i am all about their string cheese. no joke. it's delicious.

All of this. Also, if/when Dodai leaves this will no longer be a site worth reading.

That's because, by formally opting out, they're tacitly permitting someone to help women afford contraception, and God is not down with that.

The only reason I clicked on this page was to see how low Beats would be placed...and hilariously the words beats by dre are nowhere to be found when doing a page search. Such is life.

She obviously was looking to file this lawsuit when she applied for the job. This is someone (more likely an organization funding her) looking for a lawsuit to push their agenda.

Cultured Buttermilk Blend milk substitute. I use it for baking of all sorts. I like it better than milk from a carton because I can mix dry ingredients ahead of time for lightning fast biscuits, pancakes, muffins, and sweet breads. It doesnt spoil like the milk at the store so it saves you money. It also allows for…

This means I could quit my job and start making "miracle" Jesus toasts to sell on eBay.

The camera car did a great job though. He noticed it a little late, but he hit the Ram in the perfect spot, and he didn't do something stupid like swerve off the road and into a tree.

Was gonna go for a tiny penis joke, but instead: anybody know anything about art history? Why are penises depicted as so tiny in Greek Art, and other art too? Sistine chapel, thousands of years later:
