Yes, facing adversity does build resilience. However, creating adversity for another just because YOU had to face it is wrong. I had a professor who called our career a “brotherhood of suffering” and would purposely create artificial stumbling blocks and make things more difficult because he had the same done to him. It’s perpetrating a cycle of abuse. I’ve now gotten to the point where I’ve taught in university and in the hospital and I try to break that cycle. It’s still a very difficult path, the content and pace are still taxing. Many still don’t make it to graduation, why make it harder then it needs to be?

Yes, but question was which is easier to shoot.

100% firearms. Easier to aim and keep on target and easier for people of any strength,size or handicap to use moderately well with minimal training. The only place bows are really better is that they are functionally more simple.

A complete novice can pick up a gun and with minimal coaching be on target after a short time. To get close to the same proficiency and accuracy with a how would take exponentially more time and practice.

They connect to allow the vitals to be pulled into the EMR to allow continuous documentation of vitals for the anesthesia record or central patient monitoring. More and more frequently, the database is not onsite and is shared amongst several sites within a hospital system.

Except they’re also giving it to their kids, who are far more susceptible to the diseases

Darkest of Days. You’re one of Custer’s soldiers at Little Big Horn who gets recruited to be a time cop and travel around the timeline fighting in historical battles with ridiculous futuristic weapons to create “balance” or something.

That’s a full-on Burt Meownolds 'stache

Gross, olives.

I was thinking the opposite. I have 1 option for “high speed” in my town, and it’s $90 for 12Mbps that rarely actually gets to that speed. I just barely switched to starlink and it’s been amazing.

Sorry, I mean the “collective we.” Of course individuals do build compassion, but look at the state of America and tell me that the collective we is different than I stated.

Totally wouldn’t work. We Americans believe in a brotherhood/sisterhood of suffering. If we suffered, we believe that others NEED to suffer as well. It’s why nurses are terrible to new nurses, why so many people are against forgiving student debt, and why so many parents refuse to acknowledge their children’s issues. It’s all “I lived through it and it sucked, so you need to too,” mentality. We didn’t build compassion though suffering, we just wish it on others, too.

He way over-valued our home. It was a site unseen offer based on homes in the area. It was in need of major repairs that would make it difficult to sell on the market. Our realtor ended up buying it from us and then doing a huge renovation on it. She sold it for about double what the guy offered, but had to sink substantial funds into it that I just didn’t have.

We sold our house last year and did work with one of those guys to at least get an idea of value and then went with a realtor and made about 30% more than the cash offer guy.

Yeah, the need for nurses is growing daily, fewer people are choosing the career and more are leaving because nursing earlier because of the stress and abuse. But another major reason for long waits is that a lot of the people in the ER are there utilizing it as a primary care provider because they don’t have insurance to be able to get day to day care or they don’t go to an urgent care office. So many people are in the ER for antibiotics, cuts, scrapes, minor burns and breaks that really don’t need to be seen in the ER, adding to the long waits for people who do need to be there.

ChatGPT, write me a manifesto

Only one way to see if that’s the reason…

I used to joke with my surgeons that I’m running out of quarters to put in the anesthesia machine. Pretty soon it’s not going to be a joke.

“Motive remains unknown.” Lol

To be fair, DA:O still holds up pretty well and doesn’t really need a remaster.

The crazy thing is that there’s apparently no official database that tracks that. There was just a California firefighter charged with multiple counts of arson and in the article they mention that the statistic isn’t tracked, they went on to do a database search that showed how frequent it is.
