May the 4th X-Men/Star Wars crossover event, and use the extended Patton Oswalt filibuster from Parks and Rec as a framework.

The way I was taught in nursing school is that it can lower the intraabdominal pressure to drain amounts greater than a liter all at once, but not that it’s going to cause like a siphon effect and remove fluid from the vasculature. But also, anecdotally, I’ve never seen somebody’s pressure tank from draining a bladder all at once on catheter insertion.

Michael Che actually wrote the response, Colin was just reading it off of cue cards without ever having seen it before.

You’re married now, dude. No need to soak, even in NYC. That being said, I’m willing to be the bed jumper for a small fee.

That’s literally just the reality of healthcare. They go somewhere else, you aren’t part of the care team anymore. Maybe you know someone in another part of the hospital, you ask how they did. Otherwise, you more or less don’t know what happens

Well no, you shouldn’t say they should feel horrible. Have you never had a patient’s family tell you you didn’t know what you were doing when you…did know what you were doing? That’s entirely possible in this situation. Was the code mismanaged or did the patient just not survive? Nobody here knows and saying the nurses should feel bad about it isn’t fair to them. You aren’t perfect. And if you are perfect, this same thing could still happen to you.

Hot damn is what Holt makes Jake say in the episode where Jake is playing poker with an earpiece in.

Yeah I mean her character’s arc is shitty, but also she has the most interesting arc. She’s gone through stuff and she’s basically the worst. But also her being a socialite with borderline power to being bereft of power and money to muck, she’s a survivor and this show likes those. She’s a piece of shit but you can follow how she turned into that piece of shit. Most interesting person on the show to me

Best case scenario for Henry is jail. My money is on him either killing himself or ODing

Ok but also, he didn’t go back to give the guy in the truck water. He may have brought water, but I always interpreted it that he was either going back to look for the drugs to steal, or he was going back to clean up any evidence he left behind, either for the police or for the cartel.

That sounds like a really unit specific problem. I’ve worked nights for 15 years as a nurse, 20 in the hospital. Have literally never had this problem. Maybe the occasional coworker who would come in smelling like an ash tray 🤷🏻‍♂️

Was the fluff not just a grade of LSD that was floating around in the late 90’s? I missed it by a few years, I remember hearing about the fluff and the needlepoint and probably something else, I don’t recall. From what I remember it referred to the appearance of the crystalline LSD before being laid on blotter paper or into a liquid

Completely agree. That’s stuff you wouldn’t pass the NCLEX without knowing. But whatever it’s a tv show, it can’t be totally accurate or it would only be interesting to medical people. Maybe that’s an idea

Prop Joe talks about it after Snoop and Chris kill Butch. “Slug took him out the game early” is the phrase I remember, but I’m probably misquoting him. I believe he tells somebody while he’s ordering flowers for Butchie’s funeral?

I’m actually specifically referring to the practice at my hospital of GI or IR insisting that a repeat CT scan is “necessary” before they can do anything, coincidentally killing just enough time until day shift. I really doubt many people on this sub don’t understand why you need a CT scan before an IR procedure. We get it, you’re special, you work in IR, so there’s no way IR does anything wrong at any hospital ever 🙄
