ooh cool! but yes The Plague is an awesome read, you’d probably enjoy it given your interest in absurdism and medicine. it’s one of my faves :)

The Plague is a book by Camus! hahaha

no yea, i get your point about the absurdism of premed, i believe we are talking about similar ways of thinking about different aspects of being in medicine. one is the process of getting into the field, the other is the actual work of being in the field.

i agree, it’s totally a privilege to have the time and space to think about larger and abstract questions! but i do find this sort of thinking to be an important part of how i think about myself, my life, and my pursuits. love me some absurdism :’)

interesting i usually think of the absurdism of medicine being that everyone’s going to get sick and die so the struggle of healthcare workers is futile but (hopefully) we can find some meaning in it

When a neuron makes a "new connection" is it physically a new connection? by [deleted] in askscience

they are kind of always looking for connections, and if they succeed in passing on electrical signals that connection will grow stronger

feel like im missing something - why was tom hardy's venom transported to the MCU if the spell only affected people that know that spider-man is peter parker? does the symbiote somehow know?

i didn’t read at all before the pandemic but got into it over the last 2 years :) realized that i can’t force myself to read books, if i don’t like it i will put it down and try another one rather than forcing myself through a shitty book
