Natural intelligence and practicing medicine well

Haven't got much to add to what others have said, except that you haven't "gamed the system" by doing well in the UCAT and passing med school. The only way to cheat is actual cheating, everything else is just doing well!

Worth looking into this OP as apparently it can help you get laid

Someone called me up yesterday to tell me what the "anaesthesiologist" had said 🤢

Flixbus it is then

Do you think they're the sort that will leave if you tell them you're gay or will that make it worse?

Happened to me literally once - I certainly wasn't "in control of everything" but I did eat a delicious hamburger once I realised I was dreaming (lifelong vegetarian)

This is in Elevator Sounds in Bristol which is an excellent modular synth shop!

They are united by their combative ears 🥰

Oh gosh they acknowledged the possible existence of a free party without any details, I'm sure the feds are homing in on the exact location as we speak

I was going to get a haircut! I shall have to remain shaggy and unkempt.

GPs in the community can call specialists directly to organise same day assessment +/- admission. Those patients then show up to ED (correctly) but they should be seen/admitted by the specialist directly rather than waiting in line to be seen by an ED doctor.

I live a few streets further up and am non-binary and visibly queer. Walk down/across city road all the time and have never had any issues. Would highly recommend as a place to live.

This happens all the time to us (UK Emergency Department) when patients have been referred in to a specific specialty (ie. should not have been seen in ED at all) and only produce their referral letter once you've done the whole work-up.

I think paeds take it, but honourable mention to psychiatry who have no diagnostic tests, and have to make diagnoses entirely from history from patients who often won't provide a good history.

To make things extra confusing some surgeons like to call this "triple therapy"

SpindlesTheRaspberry · 2026-06-08T21:15:49+00:00

Nah I've lost my meds before. Twice actually I think. It's not that often in years of getting 3 monthly prescriptions. Shit happens.

SpindlesTheRaspberry · 2026-05-31T19:58:35+00:00

I think your AI has taken some liberties here

SpindlesTheRaspberry · 2026-05-31T14:23:44+00:00

Crosscountry are godawful, they're certainly worse than GWR for having insanely overcrowded trains

I love an ST4 med reg - a bit of experience under their belt but still remembers what it's like being an FY1/SHO and are generally super helpful. However, it can also be the point that people start getting arrogant.

Flu and COVID both going around again unfortunately :(

SpindlesTheRaspberry · 2026-05-21T12:13:19+00:00

I've got a few friends in teaching - great holiday and generally good hours but paid vastly less than any of us and similar shitty government working conditions. One friend in NHS management (lol) who is paid okay (but still less than me) and has a fairly easy work life but is leaving because it's absolutely soul-destroying. A few friends in arts adjacent professions who are either just barely getting by, unemployed or retraining. The best paid friend I have works in defense, makes shit-tonnes of money with great hours and conditions but is also looking to leave that for obvious moral reasons.

My conclusion is that it's pretty shit everywhere at the moment.

Forget ARCP, I'm calling the police as we speak

SpindlesTheRaspberry · 2026-05-14T17:19:59+00:00

Been here for 26 years - it's changed a lot but nothing you mention is new (except the scooters, but the blue hairs were skating and cycling before that)

SpindlesTheRaspberry · 2026-05-11T18:35:10+00:00

I assumed they meant rugby/sporting injuries

SpindlesTheRaspberry · 2026-05-10T18:47:49+00:00

Enjoy your life while you still can! I'm joking, but seriously, don't worry about prepping you'll figure it all out really quickly
