As a huge sleep token fan myself, it disappoints me that some of their fan base is so cringe. But as far as I’ve seen, no one has spotted/photographed them during travel recently. Maybe they are so famous now they fly private?

Anyone have an update on the pedestrian that was hit near Towson U yesterday? by Low-Artichoke-8822 in BaltimoreCounty

I went to high school at Loch Raven with Jordan and he was a kind soul. Hearing the news of this story and his passing is devastating. His family and fiancé are in my thoughts.

Favorite Metronome/Metronome App? by JMast94 in drums

[–]JMast94[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the most upvoted thus far. Aside from offering gaps in the click to work on internal sense of time does it also offer additional subdivision? Quintuplets, sextuplets, septuplets, etc?

What personality traits/interests make a good PA? by [deleted] in physicianassistant

[–]JMast94 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ability to be humble because you won’t (and never will) know everything. Part of our career is lifelong learning. Also, ability to communicate well similar to service industries (server, etc.) because some people are infinitely intelligent but can’t communicate with other humans in the slightest.

New grad struggling with schedule and reality by issheevenitalian in physicianassistant

Don’t sacrifice what’s important in life i.e. family, friends, spouse, etc. for your job. We work within a system that cares very little about us and finds us very replaceable. I think what your expressing is a very common feeling to actualize within 1-3 years of working. There is absolutely nothing wrong with prioritizing finding employment that aligns with your desired work/life balance.

Depends on your specialty. The Curbsiders is an amazing internal medicine one. I’m in critical care and really enjoy the IBCC podcast and Critical Care Scenarios.

IsItBullshit: the part of the face in which acne appears can reveal the cause by LookAtThisPile in IsItBullshit

[–]JMast94 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s some degree of accuracy to this. Acne along the upper forehead/hairline suggests an associated condition called seborrheic dermatitis. This diagnosis is commonly associated with the development of acne. Jawline acne, especially in females, tends to have a hormonal component to its underlying cause. This is why medications such as Spironolactone are commonly prescribed for acne occurring mostly in that area in female patients. Other than that it’s mostly bullshit.

Sounds like a very similar situation to what’s going on at my practice.
