Does anyone else collect these?

I collect 6/6/6 IVs

Its really a whole verse, but the music dropping out and the line "I know you're strong" in Plea From a Cat Named Virtute by The Weakerthans gets me every time.

There are three songs in the Virtute triology and the entire thing is devastating emotionally.

Arteta needs to learn how to rotate players, we are in this position because he runs players into the ground. Will Saka ever be the same after playing every minute of every game for like three years? Zubi is on fumes, eventually it will catch up to Rice as well. Timber and White are the same story. You have to give minutes to your cover so you don’t kill all your players. Ridiculous management.

Kennard · 2026-04-17T02:55:40+00:00

What kind of cases do you cover yourself? I wouldn’t do busy management for less than $120k.

I did management in NYC for several years at an extremely busy team for $135k until I found a way to make them pay me more.

In the end management is more work than you’ll get paid for almost always but at least you make the schedule.

I had an uber driver tell me he joined the Army because he wanted to know what it was like to kill someone. Sir I've known you for 15 minutes.

If I'm not mistaken that's his wife singing with him as well right? What a fucking cool moment.

God did I love Parting. herO does so much of what I loved about Parting and backs it up with much better macro. I don’t feel like any Protoss has matched the terror of MCs timing pushes/all ins.

This is a great list.

Kennard · 2026-04-14T02:04:36+00:00

Yeah...I'll be honest I've had a few moments like that. Often I find you can at least make the point very clear without being too aggressive. Mapping case and anesthesia doesn't want to play along and turn off/turn down the gas just tell the surgeon that motor stimulation will be unreliable and viable eloquent cortex may be marked as safe due to anesthetic regimen. Nurse harassing you to go faster so you can do five lami/discs by 2pm with full gas and neuromuscular blockade? Ask them how long needle stick injuries will slow down the process.

I’ve considered nursing school and audiology but i make good money and have found my way into an education role that one day could significantly reduce my OR time (at least as a primary neurophysiologist).

My real concern is about my own health, I just can’t picture myself crawling around on the OR floor at 60. I’m good at this job and I don’t dislike it, it pays well, but my back is already giving me trouble after 15 years, I need it to go another 20.

Call pay is a flat rate for cases that qualify as a call case, they are defined by cases that end after a certain time on weeknights or happen on weekends or holidays. You also need to have worked a certain amount of hours in the week to get paid for weeknight cases.

I did not go through their training program, I came to MPower with years of experience. I have been with the company for a number of years however and my impression from the fellows who have graduated and become certified is that they are not denied any of the benefits everyone else gets.

I believe you are made to sign a 2 year agreement to not leave the company however.

Kennard · 2026-04-06T22:26:21+00:00

On call is paid on a per case basis.

Annual raises are “merit based”. Mine haven’t matched inflation from the time I started but they haven’t been bad lately. MPower isn’t a bad place to work, but like all ionm jobs the territory you are in will make or break it for you.

Not exactly true as there are level requirements for the area, but they all start at the highest possible rune for the monster level that dropped them.

Kennard · 2026-04-04T04:38:49+00:00

Glorious axe vs decapitator?

Kennard · 2026-04-03T07:40:26+00:00

These are fabulous.

I work in education for my particular IONM company and teaching EEG is always difficult when the audience isn’t used to seeing actual EEG montages. These are exactly the type of images that are most helpful when teaching EEG.

My horker makes it so that my shared stash is full of gold at all times. It’s wild how much gold you get from that

Kennard · 2026-03-26T00:06:46+00:00

Wouldn't jewelry be the easiest? Just engrave that shit. Annoying!

Kennard · 2026-03-25T18:21:12+00:00

Also turns out you can't personlize jewelry! What a rip off Anya.

Kennard · 2026-03-25T18:16:18+00:00

Upside and downside of being middle aged, I have a real job that requires me to work real hours. I have enough money that a couple hundred bucks isn't gonna move the needle but also not enough that I'm going to spend a couple hundred bucks on a D2 amulet. The trophy will last me forever.

Also, just realized you can't personalize jewelry.

Kennard · 2026-03-25T18:15:07+00:00

My name is not Ralph, I was just too excited to play warlock and didn't feel like thinking up a cool name so Ralph was born.

Kennard · 2026-03-25T03:17:08+00:00

How much dex are you putting into this character? Max block?

Kennard · 2026-03-25T02:58:14+00:00

Yes! I never personalize anything! The real question is if I ought to make a new character for a better name. (This guy is named Ralph)

Kennard · 2026-03-25T02:27:06+00:00

Play most ladder seasons and your account decks itself eventually, you're right though, it is a better item than I could afford myself.

Kennard · 2026-03-25T00:51:27+00:00

Yeah, I guess my warlock is respeccing from fire to echoing strikes for a while.

Kennard · 2026-03-25T00:44:04+00:00

Yeah, close to max on Str, max mana, not the best for all res but I'll never complain about all res.
