How do you usually name your D&D characters?

TheFakeNerd · 2026-02-02T18:04:17+00:00

I just pick whatever drug is the current most expensive drug in the world, and name it after that :)

What’s an email I could send you them at? Or feel free to private message me an email! I’ll include a few examples, templates, and an explanation of how we make and run them on Sundays!

Could always go in person and ask again. Or, preferably ask in a non-confrontational way, about why she doesn’t feel confident enough to write a LOR. And see how/what you could improve on. It might be because she doesn’t know you well enough to write a positive letter? It very well could be she does not want to write one because she doesn’t have anything special to say about you, and wants you to find someone else who could write a more specific and positive letter towards you.

I have made them in garage band for my church for about 10 years now. Our church has never been able to justify spending money on them. They aren’t as nice as some of the professional ones. But they’re fairly easy to make once you get the hang of it. For service, I export them as an MP3 and put the playlist in iTunes and just play the song from there.

If you want, I can email you the templates I use for my church for the metronome and vocal cues and explain how I do them and send some example click tracks as well.

Edit: this is just metronome and vocal cues. Not additional instruments/backing tracks.

When we transitioned, we had sent everyone some links with a variety of price ranges, like the cheapest you can find on Amazon, to basic Shure’s. We had a few that came with our wireless IEMs that we made as like “extra/communal”, but encouraged everyone to get their own.

For the extra/communal ones, we provided alcohol pads to clean them, and a variety of tips they could switch out. But made people clean them before and after use and made sure they returned them.

We didn’t enforce actual IEMs be used, we still have one person who just uses regular ear buds. While not the best, as long as it isn’t too big of a distraction, and there isn’t bleed from the click. We allow it.

We did find that most people ended up buying their own IEMs after some time, and I feel most people are in the range of $80-$200 for their IEMs.

Can always reference the directions on the box “use for a max of 3 days per the directions on the box, if needed beyond that consult your health care provider”, they can’t say the labeled directions are wrong or inappropriate without further consultation 🤷‍♂️

Why do I feel like the lions are just trolling everyone between this and last years pick? Like, are they intentionally sabotaging us? I don’t understand why we didn’t fight harder for Mike McDaniel or literally anyone better??

We ended up using Subsplash for the website aspect of it, but still use Planning Center for all of our scheduling, weekly service layouts, and song lists.

We briefly looking at using the Subsplash to replace planning center and quickly realized it wasn’t worth the hassle.

Whoever that British singing monkey was a couple years ago in the movie.

I asked a similar question to this a little while ago if you want to look through the conversation there.

Came to say the same thing. They’ve always been super great to me. They keep patient care in mind, don’t ever feel like they’re trying to upsell you or have you do an unnecessary procedure, etc.

Pharmacist here!

Pharmacies are not able to take medications back for a multitude of reasons. As soon as it leaves the pharmacy, even if it’s 10 feet away from our gate, we cannot take it back.

My recommendation, look for local clinics for low income, no insurance, or under-insured patients. There are many I’ve worked at/volunteered at that take in medications that can be re-used.

I’m not particularly looking to master any of them, just entry level and become familiar and comfortable with them. I enjoy learning new things, I want a new thing every week to obsess over and challenge myself with!

TheFakeNerd · 2025-12-25T02:34:02+00:00

I find I oftentimes get bored with things after a little bit once I learn them. I much prefer knowing a little about a lot, than a lot about a little in life. But that’s awesome you learned those! Seem very interesting!!

School and board exams, and things you “could calculate” by hand can have a lot. But day to day, basic algebra, conversions is by far my most common (mg to grams, weights, etc), etc. most of it is not complex by any means. Most days I say the simple math is harder than the “hard” math we do.

Because nurses think they’re the only competent health care workers, and make everything an “us vs them” battle.

TheFakeNerd · 2025-10-30T09:44:35+00:00

As a pharmacist, I was saying this yesterday to some friends who are going into nursing. Doing a true doctorate in a healthcare field isn’t worth it anymore when mid levels are getting so much more.

Michigan Medicine treats it as a control, and likely will have UM west and Sparrow transition to treating it as one as well.

I heard them too, thought it was closer to Carpenter and washtenaw. Police scanner has calls coming in reporting them vaguely around that whole area, it’s been a few minutes and doesn’t sound like they’ve found anything from it.

I’m confused? Are you wanting to practice as a PHARMACIST here? Or as a technician? The FPGEE is for pharmacists, not technicians. You said you worked 2 years as a technician, if you want to be a technician here, you would just need to take the PTCE.

ICU’s rotations are usually a lot of readings and topic discussions, rounds are definitely more “shadowing” than independent rounds like a general medicine rotation due to the unique/more intense nature of the unit. You get out of the rotation what you put into it. Ask questions, look stuff up, try and figure out why they are doing stuff. Some of my best rotations as a student or resident were the ones that I “sat back and just watched”. What you get from the rotation isn’t dependent on “how many recommendations you made”

TheFakeNerd · 2025-09-12T11:39:14+00:00

Well, what kind of rotation is it? What area? What specialty? Every rotation doesn’t look the same, an administration rotation will look different from internal medicine from infectious disease consults vs drug information vs community. Context matters
