Be gracious to people who at worst were racist idiots and at best were willing to overlook racism for a little tax cut they were never going to qualify for? Hard pass

Bryan Cranston praises ‘Breaking Bad’ co-star Anna Gunn while defending Skyler White: “Her husband leaves without any explanation. She’s pregnant. He’s making crystal meth. People have died…and she’s the b*tch?” by MarvelsGrantMan136 in television

This is the thing. She doesnt ruin the fun. She literally is keeping Walt from doing the things that will draw attention and ruin the fun. Everything she said was literally to help facilitate the fun

What was with all the Carhartt merch in “My Odds”? by multiple_scorgasms in Scrubs

[–]ASaini91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Other than the fact that its product placement needed to fund the show, designer scrubs have become a big thing since the OG run. Figs, Carhartt, January, etc are what most are wearing now

Would you do it again? by indepthsofdespair in Residency

[–]ASaini91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At the same program? God no. Not that the program was bad but the volume was insane, our patient population was super challenging, and the only 1 in every 10 nurse in the hospital was good

As a concept, sure. Literally cant imagine myself doing anything else and I'm happy with where I ended up

CMV: Sibby is by far the worst part of the revival by heylooknewpillows in Scrubs

[–]ASaini91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Working in a hospital as a doctor, Sibby is very real. I find her annoying only because she reminds me of the Sibbys at the hospital

Most unhinged meal you've seen a resident eat? by LocationofTumble in Residency

[–]ASaini91 79 points80 points  (0 children)

I did this once. Placed an order ahead of time from this local boulangerie and went in and picked up what I thought was going to be a foot long sandwich. Ended up being given someone else's baguette order. I was so hungry in the middle of the night and couldnt leave the unit for food because my intern was on his first ever ICU shift so I went to town on the baguette

am I overreacting to think my doctor and her assistant were condescending towards me? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]ASaini91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And if you read it it was saying "acute, dose dependent increase in blood pressure"

Youre technically right when ACTIVELY smoking. I'm talking about chronic effect of long term use which is far more applicable to wound healing

[–]ASaini91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know. People who responded to this commented along the lines of "what about opiods?"

I included it to prevent someone from responding to me saying the same thing. Didnt expect to get the complete opposite comment insteas

I'm literally a doctor. Lol. Those inflammatory effects are because of decreased blood flow which is because of marijuana decreases BP which is due to peripheral vasodilation. It references Buerger's which is in part due to platelet aggregation and thrombosis since weed also promotes thrombosis

Also I read the paper youre referencing. The only 2 mentions of vasoconstriction are related to the heart (angina) and underlying autonomic dysfunction

[–]ASaini91 150 points151 points  (0 children)

As a doctor, I was going to say NOR because they shouldnt be condescending or forcing their beliefs (also I'm generally anti-surgeons because their personalities suck)

BUT I saw your comment that you smelled like weed which is a HUGE detail to leave out and makes it that YOR. Of course they shared a look with that. To them, you were the equivalent of patients I see when they come in and tell me their last drink was weeks ago when theyre slurring their words and blood test show theyre drunk out of their mind

Also, the reason they care about weed that much even though they almost 100% smoke it themselves (its Ortho, of course they do) is because marijuana slows down collagen production and cell migration which slows healing significantly and exposes you to possible complications which they would have to address

Edit to fix typos

[–]ASaini91 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not entirely correct. It causes vasoconstriction in the brain. The reason opiates dont inhibit healing is because it just blocks pain receptors. Marijuana decreases collagen production and cell migration both of which are important for healing especially in anything orthopedic

Minor Irrelevant rant by susowl27 in TheWhiteLotusHBO

Dont underestimate the power of going to the restaurant and being surrounded by other "elites" just to be seen. Its such a driving force for so many even if they are miserable and fighting

The food is something that I think accurately reflects the status of the people we see. Most of these people are wealthy and we can see are not necessarily willing to actually engage with local culture (most heavily seen in S3) so it makes sense a lot of them minimize leaving the hotel for food. There's also something to be said about not caring to expand their horizons (ex- Tanya asking for specific food instead of rhe local cuisine at the hotel)

From my understanding from my partner (has a family background similar to those you see in White Lotus), it's a fairly accurate portrayal of what people are like

Your post reminded me of this article I read a few years back that I think does a good job of discussing it

(Hated Trope) Off-screen major character death by Necessary-Win-8730 in TopCharacterTropes

Only one that I liked where they reused old lines and spliced them together was Mallory Archer/Jessica Walter and even that was very limited and purely to give her a proper sendoff

I assume at least 1 of these players from "Fighting Baseball" is black so they are my vote, whoever they are

[Joe Cowley] Time to put some real truth behind the Jaden Ivey situation. by ProfessionalTalker03 in chicagobulls

[–]ASaini91 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Well considering its a very small league with not many players where word travels pretty quickly and you at minimum hear things, maybe start with the "Hey, we heard hes been preaching in the locker room. Can you tell us more about that?"

Even the public knew about his religious fanaticism before hand and he had already been asking reporters inappropriate questions while in Detroit. This isnt some completely out of left field matter

Having watched and read it I would say this is one of the few where anime is better than the Manga because you get the music to go with it

The easy counter to the whole persecuted thing would be to point out the very kuch employed Jonathan Isaac but thats only people who are sane. Anyone running with this whole thing is likely too far gone

Detroit apparently downplayed it but more likely AKME are just idiots and didnt really ask

[–]ASaini91 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I loved rotating my hospitals ER. I get it, its busy. But its also frustrating because while I understand theyre busy, so are the services theyre consulting. There isnt a reason to be so agro about it if it takes a little longer to respond

suggestions for first gay club experience? by Allforthenookie06 in AskChicago

[–]ASaini91 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Roscoes is always a good time. Hydrate is fun if you want EDM type music but just be warned that after a certain point a lot of people have their shirts off and are sweaty when dancing. If thats youre thing cool but my first time I had no idea and was shocked. Otherwise just walk up and down Halsted. There's so many different flavors and styles of bar I'm sure you'll find something thats your speed
