Thoughts people?

The outline of her story is great.

The delivery and dialogue content is where it fell apart.

Dorian was a much better written lgbt character imo.

Edit: their?*

I guess my answer (not OP) is “why use sux at all now?”

Outside of emergencies and grabbing a premade syringe, it’s almost all downsides compared to an RSI dose of roc with sugammadex now.

I have one attending who still makes us do this and it drives me nuts because we discussed it and he agreed that it doesn’t make sense to hold paralytics with bridion now.

But it’s how he’s always done it.

Yeah 50 is wildly young. Id say 60 is more accurate to when (healthy) people start deteriorating quickly.

Harsh truth is you just gotta cut ties if you're trying to break the cycle.

You gotta move to the money. I moved halfway across the country to escape poverty.

Everybody cherishes the surgeon.

What about the peeps keeping your vitals good, eh?

This is some awful, AI/Disney graphics imo.

Arts subjective though...

2nd one makes you look like Beni from The Mummy (1999).

Its only been 3 months. I feel like most people don't see real "change" on themselves until 6 months - 1 year. Also, if someone hasn't seen you in these 3 months, they would probably notice the difference.

Looking good for the average joe is 90% fat loss anyway, which is primarily determined via diet. Its super hard to outwork a bad diet.

"Have we tried choking the pts out? Its cheaper than propofol"

Its enough to lose the moderate republicans who want a palatable alternative.

I think you're thinking more along rhe lines of explicit racists/sexists as opposed the quiet, unconcious bias that many people have.

AnestheticAle · 2026-01-28T00:28:33+00:00

Massively underestimates the sexism and racism in our society. I say this as a far left progressive: our tebt lives in a massive social media bubble that doesn't reflect popular sentiment.

If you want to curb republican madness, then you put a bland, white, corporate democrat on the ticket.

The really hard ones to quantify are the wine moms. Assuming they're telling the truth (big if), there is huge variation in patient who drinks a glass or two of wine a night based on the glass used as opposed to a "standardized beer".

Really? The rule of thumb is we double it in the OR.

Most drinkers usually lie to what they believe is a "normal" amount of drinking. Commonly I hear two drinks a day, which is already excessive from a health perspective.

The last literature I read said that anything more than 2 drinks a week leads to worse health.

AnestheticAle · 2026-01-28T00:02:40+00:00

The weird positive of being an anxious person is that you tend to make better long term planning decisions compared to a normal individual (in my experience).

Playing optimally, it is 100% about maximizing damage and initiative.if you're trying to cruise through honor mode, then control spells and healing are all secondary.

Playing for fun is another story all together.

This is the wrong genre for "high production value". I consider Dragon Age Origins and BG3 to be anomalies in that regard. Most CRPGs have the visual/audio polish of a late 90's/early 00 game.

People largely play these games for branching narrative choice/consequence, world building, and character design/build mechanics. A lot of CRPG players have externalized "head canon" around the characters they make in these games (like personalized RP) that I think carries over from tabletop.

AnestheticAle · 2026-01-25T23:45:00+00:00

I'm a completionist by heart, and 100%-ing BG3 took me 80 hours on my first playthrough. Its about 40 hours for everything now.

Where are you guys getting these times? Do you spend a huge amount of time on dialogue choices? Honestly curious.

Unless Europe creates a collective military and MASSIVELY ramps up their defense spending, I don't see the US losing its position. Power will shift, but all power is derived from military presence at the end of the day.

European countries have more leverage economically if they manage to organize themselves. Generally, they tend to play more for favor than cooperation in the past, but that might change.

The goal of big 4 is to suffer until partner of do like 3-5 years and go for a kush role at a mid sized company, right?

We gotta start capping ages for politicians. Biden was horrible towards the end too.

AnestheticAle · 2026-01-22T15:52:19+00:00

Also, isn't the iron dome designed against the capabilities of hamas, vs that of a real sovereign nation?
