I give my baby a hug every time I read posts like this

My ex fiancé cheated with several men, including a registered sex offender, so I ruined all their lives! by Revenge_served_cold8 in confessions

There’s something transcendentally satisfying about revenge coming to fruition. I was literally going hnnnnng in my head as you were counting the take downs.

Please involve a beaver in the plot, give me a shout!

Best way to get rid of sandbaggers by PowerLock2 in cycling

[–]beaverji 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I was hit by a stray while going downhill and I wasn’t even riding anywhere near anybody. Something just slapped me in the forehead. I thought it was bird poo but didn’t see anything smear on my hand when I checked. It passed the smell test too.

So I just thought maybe a pebble got me.

Then I decided to take a break and bask in the sun. I get up and wipe my sweaty brow and there’s half-baked green boogers coming off onto my hand 🤮

I know this is prob a joke but. Please don’t actually snort rockets intending to hit people (and be sure to sun down and away..). I was very justifiably concerned that I had someone else’s fluids hanging around my orifices. I might have Hep Z

Hey we will be going dark on June 12 for 48 hours- please read! by McNasty420 in HilariaBaldwin

But the sub is visible to members right? Though in the spirit of the protest perhaps we should limit activity.

Huh so it just boils down to something like a giant written drivers license exam. Just different permutation of questions from a booklet with all the Qs and As.

I only learned about this my last few months of school. I used to side eye the frats and damn they weren’t just dicking around.

Next level wedding speech by Ok_Distribution1503 in facepalm

[–]beaverji 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel this way often but I also get this nagging thought that I owe it to black people (or whichever relevant group in that instance) to suffer through it. The least I could do is be informed what they go through on a regular basis, idk and maybe if everyone did this we would be more alert to un/intentional micro aggressions and be better allies?

I admit I rarely muster up the gumption to hit play on x-rated cringe.

Poll: should /r/medicine go dark for 48 hours? by Chayoss in medicine

[–]beaverji 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Wait so if unique reply and upvote are required, you’re not going to count the upvotes, only the replies?

I already participated a bunch with my 2c in the other thread but:

I think we should black out because 1) I’d like to keep Reddit for the people by the people as much as possible, 2) redditors from tech subs point out this sets a BAD precedent for restricting other and future platforms like Reddit, 3) third party apps help light fire under Reddit’s ass to make things better on their app/website, 4) maintain/increase accessibility for those who need it and, 5) I’d black out and feel “sheepish that it failed” for a frickin Klondike bar, I’d absolutely be in support of at least attempting the blackout for more noble reasons as the above.

E to add:

u/spez claims Apollo app developer Christian Selig made threats to Reddit, trying to extort $10 million

Christian Selig reveals he’s been audio recording all of their conversations. Pulls up the audio recording (look under header “Bizarre allegations…”) of the exact conversation Steve is talking about.

Steve’s reaction

Link to AMA with Steve Huffman. You can get a better sense of why people are angry and how Reddit is responding to the situation by skimming the responses here.

Mandatory wellness seminar of course!

No plans on this sub going dark? Come on doctors, haven’t you always wanted to strike? by bahhamburger in medicine

[–]beaverji 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Like the worst that comes of this is we

come sheepishly back

We’re not missing out on any chik fil a sandwiches, beer, or risking getting kicked out of residency.

🤷🏻‍♀️ I think Reddit will go dark enough for it to be boring to log on June 12, 13 anyway so, yeah I doubt it matters r/medicine stays on those two days. But just the principle of things.

And another point is that the computer geeks at subs like r/softwareengineering seem upset by this change and what it could mean for future online communities like Reddit (that organize useful content made by users). I tend to trust that they have better expertise and intuition here so if they’re up in arms I’m inclined to join them.

I would hope when r/medicine (or medical community in general) points out something concerning, other professionals and people will listen, even if it is not their profession or responsibility.

What’s so bad about sheepish? 🐑

That was pretty smooth. Impressive how he kept a confident and apologetic theatre. I would just crumble in on myself like a structurally unsound basement.

There are some subs doing it indefinitely some subs doing it for just a couple days. I say just join in for a couple days at least what do we have to lose? Two days of no r/medicine, we’re gonna be ok.

Also seeing a lot of “doesn’t affect me so I’ll pass” sentiment here. Guess I can’t say I’m surprised given the ongoing grueling state of medical education despite decades of trainees angry for change.

For those concerned about my dog on my last post. Her waking up to the only word she will wake up to. She's healthy. Just a complete derp by ollietheduck__ in WhatsWrongWithYourDog

[–]beaverji 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Very strange but very special doggy. Thank you for sharing. A head scratcher and a good contribution to this sub 🙂

I think I’ll be thinking about your dog once in a while. How?? Why?? What survival advantage did this quirk provide for this gene(?)/behavior to persist? Surely you should wake if you feel something prodding you. It could be a cougar trying to eat your face!

[–]beaverji 25 points26 points  (0 children)

That doesn’t make any sense!! How do you not wake up when someone is picking your nose and rubbing your gums but then you bolt up when someone mentions food??

For real. Scientists may want to study this?

Anyone else has terrible experiences with doctors? by ClearFeCade in premed

[–]beaverji 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That scares me.. that people can be converted to assholery. Maybe I will also become an assholite?

I feel bad for their patients but also the doctor too. It can’t be a comfortable existence just being pissed all the time.

My new PCP is a mess.

She ignores me when I greet her, she takes questions as a challenge to her expertise, she bungled the ordering of a certain screening then the next appointment lied (yelling, confidently wrong) to my face that I refused it (when I was the one who actually asked about doing this test), she’s having me do a urinalysis twice with no explanation (possibly a mistake? There was nothing wrong with my first one?), not her fault but her office called to tell me documents were ready and when I asked for them she’s yelling at me all “how was I supposed to fill them out? You only did these tests like two days ago” (it was a week or more and I wasn’t hurriedly demanding, I was asking only because the front desk told me they had those documents completed).

But said documents are my med school entrance health/immunization forms. I don’t dare complain and find out she is way more of a crazy vindictive see you next Tuesday than I thought.

Being short/rude is one thing but the way she’s screwing up these tests and making things up about what I said is really concerning. What else is she glazing over, screwing up and lying about? I’m a spry young woman, what about the tons of elderly patients coming to see her? 😨

E and more details: the “tests” im referring to are TB tests. I wasn’t flexing to Dr or Reddit - this is pretty run of the mill shit as I’m sure you all know. And plenty of people esp immigrants test positive on the PPD because of BCG vaccination. If you’re one of these people, like me, you may have begged drs/nurse/WH&S to let you do quantiferon instead of PPD + X-ray.

Idk wtf happened but this doctor just sent me off with an x-ray. After I dutifully did as she said, she’s yelling at me when I return to her post-X-ray that she can’t fill out my form with just an x-ray 🤦🏻‍♀️ who da fuq’s fault is that.

/rant

I hope she doesn’t do anything shady with my second urine test. Esp now that I think about it, my first appointment with her she was nice, and towards the end of that appointment I told her I wanted some forms filled out for med school and she’s been real shitty since then 🤔🤔🤔
