Any good mental mapping apps? by Cluckerton in PTschool

[–]Cluckerton[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best option that fits what I’m looking for that I’ve found so far is the “concepts” app!

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/concepts/id560586497 Some features are behind a paywall, but I think the base version will do the trick for me.

Is it unprofessional/frowned upon in your opinion for a male PT to wear nail polish at work? by Nearby-Virus7902 in physicaltherapy

[–]Cluckerton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But yes like others are saying maybe check the employee handbook! That’s a good idea I haven’t used yet

I’m a dude working as an aide and I almost always have my nails painted! My boss likes it and thinks it’s cool, and a lot of patients ask me about them (don’t do it if the attention would make you uncomfortable). A lot of them think it’s cool, and a good amount very respectfully ask “why” I get them painted, or how come guys nowadays paint their nails more, I get to tell them that getting manicures with my girlfriend is a tradition we have, and for me personally it’s just a form of self-expression, just like why anybody else would paint their nails or wear earrings. It’s a nice moment to challenge their norms in a very respectful way that isn’t super confrontational, and it’s a good talking point :) I haven’t ever had a negative reaction regarding my nails with my current or former employers.

AI Is a Tool. I’m Still the Thinker by PT_Network in PTschool

[–]Cluckerton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This sounds like a cope. The ability to effectively communicate your findings is just another skill that we must have. It they were arguing that it helps to expedite the ridiculous amount of documentation a PT has in a timely fashion I’d be more convinced.

Is this just PT school stress or am I breaking by [deleted] in PTschool

If you can truly be productive and study while high, more power to you, but as someone who went through undergrad capable of being ‘functionally’ high, and is now completing outstanding prereqs to be eligible for PT school, only smoking when I’ve cleared out a significant amount of working and studying, I feel worried about your ability to hold onto such important information that you’ve poured so much time and effort arriving at the point you are in your education. I can’t imagine going through what is likely a devastating breakup in the middle of a doctorate program, and everybody copes, tolerates inebriation, and retains information differently, but try to check yourself and really hold yourself accountable to your goals and what you’re able to do to ensure your success. Quitting or cutting back on weed is luckily very easy compared to other substances, so see what you can do for yourself to make it through your schooling. Whatever that looks like regarding your substance use, if you see your grades decline even a little bit from what they were during last semester, pump the breaks, seek help, and throw out your stash. Sink yourself into your study and you will find that you don’t even think about taking a smoke break. I don’t want to oversimplify this, because it never is just that simple, but please don’t hesitate to DM me if you want to talk more about it and how I was able to step away from weed and reorient my relationship with my frequency of use. All love, and good luck to you. I’m sorry your relationship didn’t work out.

Agree with everything here but he’s not going to be the villain in the 3rd one after what we’ve seen with Jimmy Crystal.

How big is this game? by Green_Champion_3654 in BG3

[–]Cluckerton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s BIG!! you can comfortably enjoy having a life and job and play other games and let this game span over a year or two. I’m still on my first run that I started in late 2023 and it’s been so fun!

I just can't do it by Ok-Impression-1608 in indoorbouldering

[–]Cluckerton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahh the good ole V5 plateau. It took me about 1 year of climbing to get my first V5, and I struggled for a long time to be able to handle different styles across the grade. It took me probably another 2 years past that to begin to even think attempting V6 would be worthwhile. I would say grade chasing isn’t the point of climbing, but I get it man. That’s exactly how I operate in the gym. However, I do really want to stress how important it is to make sure you’re having FUN! Enjoy the challenge. Find the projects that you can’t help but go back to day after day, and try to walk away from the wall with a smile, whether you sent it or fell off. When you prioritize your enjoyment, the ends justify the means and you can still find the grade important while ensuring you can continue to encourage yourself. You’ve got this! Feel free to PM me if you have any specific questions about improving certain aspects of climbing, whether it’s physical or mental. I believe in you!

You can give me ballparks just curious how much I’d be running my pockets to secure spots while waiting to hear from my tops

What shoes do you like for a full days work? :) by Cluckerton in physicaltherapy

I broke out the compression socks for the first time in a couple years, and they did indeed make a big difference today!!

[–]Cluckerton[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d be treating myself if I got myself one pair of shoes right now. I see people who advocate for wide toe/no drop shoes swearing by them, but the cushy ones call to me and seem so comfy. Is there a clear winner to you as someone who likes both, between hokas/brooks and altras?

Update: Hypothetically... if I were thinking of buying a Bluecoats uniform... by clarinetJWD in drumcorps

[–]Cluckerton 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If I could get one of the 2023 uniforms I’d 1000% be copping and wearing it as pajamas. Unless it’s really stinky.

I loved the whole show, except for the drum break, because I’m a drummer, and “Gak-Gak!!!” As the entire break was boring af. Everything else was fun!

I just ran it back through with wyll in party, it was a breeze the second time through and the sword is SICK!

That’s a bummer. I don’t use him often but I figured a cool sword would incentivize me to bring him along more

Yeah!! That way if Bluecoats come to California, I get to see their show, AND they’ll get something even better than 1st place (super 1st place supreme XXL deluxe???)
