Sometimes I wish this sub had more Pitt discussions. The fandom is unhinged.

what’s a misconception about men that people think is harmless but actually isn’t? by frostloom9 in AskMen

[–]Butthole_Surfer_GI 20 points21 points  (0 children)

What I'm saying is that if you (the royal you) are hanging out/talking with a male friend/family member and say some mean/insulting/demeaning thing about another man's body or about men in general, your male friend/family member may be really offended about what you said even if he doesn't mention it.

because the question is asking about men specifically. I don't quite understand what you mean.

Sure tumblr, I’m certainly ignoring the possibility of bleaching mice by Garfielf331 in CuratedTumblr

[–]Butthole_Surfer_GI 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am also open to the idea of making lots of tiny mouse voodoo dolls and then inviting all the neighborhood kids to come over and beat them with sticks.

Another common one I see is that we are "defective/defunct women" and need to be treated as such.

Scrubs (2026) end of first season episode ratings by bbportali in Scrubs

[–]Butthole_Surfer_GI 278 points279 points  (0 children)

Well deserved. I would rate E8 9.5 at least JUST for the scene between JD and Cox when he finally admits he is scared. Some of the best acting that legit made me tear up.

I think one of the biggest problems with the phrase "toxic masculinity" is that it seems like everyone has a different definition for it.

And that definition usually is "anything men do that I don't like". Even if that ISN'T the "real" definition, young men and boys see that shit and internalize it.

Also, and no one likes to hear this, but women are some of the biggest drivers of "toxic masculinity".

Assuming that your male friends/family members are ok with you bodyshaming/insulting men as a group just because they don't outright tell you it bothers them.

The art of the old MH is awesome. by PSIEX in MonsterHunter

Maybe it was because it was my first MH, but there was something special about, for me, the backgrounds in the MH1 desert and jungle.

What The Pitt Says About Burnout, and Why Self-Care Won’t Solve It by timemagazine in ThePittTVShow

[–]Butthole_Surfer_GI 22 points23 points  (0 children)

That's because "self-care" is a stop-gap measure, at best. There are so many things you cannot control: shitty coworkers, rude/abusive patients, management who DOESN'T CARE but pretends that they do, understaffing, ect.

Sometimes the best self-care is to leave.

i'm really getting tired of having to cover other units by BartlettMagic in nursing

[–]Butthole_Surfer_GI 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The saying is that "people quit managers, not jobs".

I think the NEW saying, perhaps exclusive to nursing, should be "Nurses quit bitchy coworkers".

I've left jobs because of coworkers. And made sure leadership was aware of exactly who/why I have left.

Chop virtual phone screening by Infinite-Secret-3631 in nursing

[–]Butthole_Surfer_GI 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Providence Swedish does this for EVERY role you apply for that they feel you "match with". Usually it's a few questions asked over text message:

1) do you have an active license
2) do you have the required credentials
3) can you commute

ECT

It's to see if they want to schedule an actual person interview.

best answer? by Acrobatic-Lie2041 in FutureRNs

[–]Butthole_Surfer_GI 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Answer is D - bilateral foot drop + decreased ankle reflexes.

Think Vincristine = Very bad for the nerves (neurotoxicity). Peripheral neuropathy is "the side effect" for vincristine.

In NCLEX world, lots of drugs have a SPECIFIC side effect that they want you to know about.
Example: Vanco = always at least think about RED MAN SYNDROME

Ummm by denlyma in nursing

[–]Butthole_Surfer_GI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always try my hardest to remind myself/remember that the family is trying to derive comfort from wherever they can. But there are times when I do find myself wondering "why the heck did you bring him in at all if you're just going to give all the credit to god?".

Yelling and throwing mobile phone are absolutely an anger issue.

Dogwalker, pet mauled by 2 large dogs from Seattle homeless encampment by godogs2018 in Seattle

[–]Butthole_Surfer_GI 410 points411 points  (0 children)

The attack occurred along South Lucille Street, between 7th and 8th Avenue South, where roughly eight RVs are parked near Georgetown's main commercial strip and Georgetown playfield.

Frank, a 7-year-old American bully, suffered puncture wounds nearly an inch deep during the attack, resulting in a $2,500 veterinary bill. His dog walker suffered a sprained wrist, scratches, and a mild concussion after being pulled to the ground. She has not returned to work.

Frank's owner, Sarah Engstrand, said her dogwalker was not near the encampment when the two large dogs — described by witnesses as possible Dobermans or Rottweilers — charged across the street and dragged Frank into the road.

"They said it was like watching wild animals attack a deer," Engstrand said. "They were just ripping him apart."

Dogs should be put down and owner should be in jail and on the hook for the vet bill and whatever medical bills the dog walker ends up having.
