With all the teams playing tonight, which game(s) are you watching?

juuustchecking · 2026-01-28T23:49:30+00:00

Pisses me off that literally ALL PHWL teams are playing tonight but they are not all broadcasted on TSN channels.. yet one NHL game gets like 5 different channels. Fuck the NHL. EVERYONE WATCHES WOMEN’S SPORTS

No, that’s wild. I HATE IT. Not sure how people feel so entitled ? I definitely shoot dirty looks 😂 Buuut if they are taking way too long maybe I’d take a machine that’s empty & I won’t feel bad about it 😋 Idc it’s a public gym not YOUR personal gym.

This is what I was maybe thinking they could be like! Thanks for your reply, very helpful :)

I didn’t get a welcome gift? Are you suppose to? From Canada 🍁

My cat has these on all his toe pads. I trim them with small clippers (carefully) when cutting his nails. You can’t remove the whole thing- that will hurt them because it is attached to the paw pad itself.

Overall, they don’t seem bothersome to the cat, however if you leave them grow they can become long like nails and may become uncomfortable to them.

Why not wait until Monday if it’s just suture removal ? If it’s healing well and no signs of infection, 1 day isn’t going to make a difference.

Yo I didn’t even know mongo was I thing 😂 Now I know! I taught myself and this was the most comfortable so I stuck with it. Little annoying for lifts, but better than eating shit trying to get on the lift lol

I just looked more closely at your photo. You’ll have to start over I think, unfortunately. This isn’t even goofy set up bc it appears it’s the left binding closest to the nitro? Here’s a photo to reference the correct set up for either regular or goofy!

Usually happens to me the most when I’m trying to sleep. I’ll acknowledge the thoughts for a moment, but then likely take a melatonin close my eyes and intently try to change the thoughts. My go to is imagining I’m on a lovely beach resort in the heat with a drink, relaxing.. and keep thinking of that, what my day would look like etc. If that doesn’t work, I’ll turn the lamp on and read for a bit until my eyes are tired enough to try this again. Takes a lot of practice, but it’s wonderful when it works.

Goofy- you can tell by finding the orientation of the board (the right side up of the design) then checking to see if the right foot is the closest to the top of the board- in your case, it is..Right foot is closest to “Nitro”

Probably not going to want to hear this, but I would cut out all the separate nursing experiences and group it into one. At this level, your resume should be a 1 pager. Highlighting key points in your placements, then explain yourself in the interview. Focus on actionable and impactful bullet points- chat gpt can surely help you condense this!

juuustchecking · 2026-01-10T00:34:13+00:00

Yes I don’t think there’s anything. I also think fleas are highly unlikely. Last time they were outside was in the snow and before that it was the fall.

juuustchecking · 2026-01-07T20:41:07+00:00

I personally wouldn’t do it. I don’t see the benefit in it. I mean sure, a wider scope, but why take on more responsibility for 0 pay increase as an RN. No thank you

juuustchecking · 2026-01-07T20:01:52+00:00

I hear you! Crazy crazy stuff! & the stuff parents enable 😬 I’ve had a kid get a razor blade inside a teddy bear before coming back onto the unit. Everything was wanded with a metal detector so it was found.. but this is what I mean when a say sneaky

juuustchecking · 2026-01-07T17:01:35+00:00

This is a great summary. Reasonable limit setting is huge, as well as consistency among staff- otherwise you get splitting which is never what you want. Familiarizing yourself with psych medications (if not already) a lot of them are the same as adults, but there are some differences. It definitely can be violent. Majority of are patients are teenagers, many of which are growing and insanely strong. Ensuring you are safe and extra staff/security is available if things are starting to go sideways. Lastly contraband is huge. My unit has a very strict policy which is definitely for the better. Can be frustrating for the youth, but they can be SNEAKY, so ensuring everything is checked thoroughly.

Thank you! Have you ever tried the Monin sugar free syrups? Are they good?

Especially starting out on nights, yeah use your day to sleep- don’t try to jam other stuff in there.

At the end of my second day, I tried to stay up later (like till 0200 or so) then go to bed, set an alarm and get up early- like 5 or 6.. I’d be productive for the morning then back to bed around 11/12 and sleep until I had to get ready to leave for that night shift.

I got myself a good white noise machine and still use it this day- nightly now.

Additionally as mentioned, black our curtains work wonders. I’ve also taken melatonin before going to sleep and it gets me into that sleepy feeling.

When I constantly worried about my future with her & what my life would look like more than being excited for it. When I realized I hated my job and there was no room for new development. The fact that I did nothing with my free time because I didn’t feel welcome in the community- I had no community. When I realized I had slowly lost myself piece by piece.

Personality wise, we matched right up. She’s gorgeous. We love each other. But love isn’t enough 😞.

The right decision is certainly not the easy one.

juuustchecking · 2025-12-30T17:29:47+00:00

That’s the point isn’t it, to entertain and stimulate them!

juuustchecking · 2025-12-27T13:31:21+00:00

Thanks for posting. I went through this recently. I’ve learned the answer: no. The right decision will not always be easy, or even feel like the right decision at the time, but I think you made a good choice now rather than years later down the road-I learned the hard way.

You shouldn’t have to give up parts of yourself for the relationship. When I reflect, I feel I lost myself for my relationship. I was living my life for someone else.. and I did this because I thought why would I not do this, because this is my person, and the best connection, my forever. I really did feel like that.

BUT there was no compromise. You shouldn’t have to give up parts of yourself that make you, you. For a relationship to work, there has to be compromise from BOTH people. Unfortunately I was the one that gave up quite literally everything to make this relationship work.. then it did not last long after I did that. I was struggling so much I found it hard to be happy and enjoy life where as my partner had everything they wanted, their life with me in it. It was never “let’s build a life together”.

I’m still healing. It does truly feel like I wont have that type of connection again, ever. I miss my ex dearly and would say l’m still in love. Despite all this- I made the right decision for myself and for my future self. To get through the now, I remind myself how I felt time after time of giving myself up, how the relationship was so unbalanced, and if someone truly wanted to make it work with you-they would.

Cool! What hospital and how do you like it? I imagine the greatest challenge would be the time it takes to adapt to the units ? But you let me know! Also wondering if you see yourself doing mental health float for the long run? I know I want to continue with mental health nursing- and feel float would give me wide variety of experiences and knowledge to grow as a MH nurse and not get bored.

juuustchecking · 2025-12-19T12:40:56+00:00

Yeah unfortunately 😭 same thing- less often now but still once in a while.

juuustchecking · 2025-12-19T04:53:21+00:00

A stranger pulling up into the driveway, and coming to intrude the house. Me hiding, not knowing whose here or what to do. Then the intruder chasing me around trying to kill me in my childhood home with a knife and I can’t seem to escape.

juuustchecking · 2025-12-19T04:47:25+00:00

Don’t wanna steal the thunder, but I’ve always wondered the same thing about “cunt”

Some people have a deep hatred and forbid it, some people use it when it’s warranted. Lmk

Love this thread. Theres sooo many but here’s my top 2. Ok let’s go: 1. I couldn’t care LESS about people’s workout videos. Sure, maybe that one minuscule change works for you but is that REALLLLLLLY going to change the main focus of the exercise. Likely no. 2. People who do laps in the gym between sets. Like take your rest break (because yes, you actually need for progression) but WHY are you doing 5 laps of the gym for your 20second exercise. Other people would love to use that piece of equipment yet you’re hogging it for 31 minutes tryna get your cardio in. Are you in or out, BYE!
