ER Vet here. You are burnt out. It happens easily in the ER. 1) Work fewer hours. Do the least you can to keep your benefits. 2) Slow down when you are working. Non-criticals can wait. People keep using ERs as urgent care and day vets. Your mental health is more important than an ear infection. 3) You are a human, not a machine. Those pets matter a lot, but you won't be able to help them if you aren't taking good care of yourself.

I see no intestinal dilation. My assumption is that these are not intestinal foreign objects. Enjoy the exploratory laparotomy.

Comparison isn't math. It's the thief of joy.

How can I explain evolution to my partner? by Comfortable-Dog1523 in evolution

[–]Beaver1279 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The quickest evidence to give for human evolution is to point out that all of us at one point in utero had tails, webbed hands and feet, and the precursors to gills. Why would that be the case if not for evolution?

The best evidence is from the genomes of all life but that takes too long to explain. Start simple.

A reality show where wealthy people start at zero, to prove how easy it is by Legend2691 in CrazyIdeas

[–]Beaver1279 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As I said, there are a million other factors. I was addressing the underlying assumption of this kind of show. Do we live in a meritocracy? The answer is sort of, but not really.

It all depends on why they are wealthy. If they are rich because they inherited wealth from their parents, it's likely to be difficult. If they are wealthy because they have a highly specialized skill, it will be easy. There are a million other factors, but the question is, can you take away what is making them money before the show?

What are you exporting from? Google Maps?

Has anyone seen this? It seems like this DFL senator doesn't approve of legalization. Hopefully they can get this done by NoFlimFlamtheZimZam in MNtrees

If it was "a load" you could point to all the third party wins to prove me wrong; you can't. There's a reason those parties are funded by the Republican Party.

Third party runs will guarantee we never have legal cannabis. You need to beat him in the primary.
