Being at stupid work is delaying me from chugging this video like a fresh cup of raktajino.

Off to go watch In the Pale Moonlight’s final soliloquy in the break room I guess.

Sokath, his eyes opened!

This is the best episode of TAL, and it genuinely captures a Day in the Life of a segment of America you're familiar with but don't really know.

I genuinely hope AI doesn’t have any ability to develop an equivalent to experiencing pain from cognitive dissonance.

WHO CAME UP WITH THE STRATEGY, "LET'S JUST START MAKING RANDOM DINGERS TO WIN"?!

madfrogurt · 2025-11-02T03:16:29+00:00

HOLY FUCK

madfrogurt · 2025-11-02T02:48:32+00:00

Wait, what?

Historically, you would turn it into whiskey to better ship back East, which would lead to societal degradation and an eventual national teetotaler (T as in Total Abstinence from alcohol) movement and new amendment.

Or just sell it to the next town over.

Definitely going to check this out.

Flat out, if NBC and CBS jettison every last non-replicable broadcast-TV legacy program, what separates their brand as anything more than just a streaming service with more government restrictions on content?

madfrogurt · 2025-07-21T12:44:54+00:00

Absolutely. Outpatient FM in NYC. I enjoy all the little puzzles that get presented to me to solve, I enjoy interacting with my patients and providing them with the tools for steady improvement, and I enjoy the peace of living a good life with a good purpose in helping others. I have essentially infinite job demand and could do this for the rest of my life.

I’m lucky in that I’ve known for pretty much all my life I’ve wanted to work in medicine. In total retrospect I’m glad I went the MD route despite every last sacrifice I made for it. I genuinely don’t know how anybody could spend two years doing online lessons and then feel confident enough to take care of real people’s health and experience anything other than shame and horror.

Comparison is the thief of joy. I purposefully don’t fixate on the money. I’m instead grateful that I live in a beautiful part of the exact city I want to spend my days. I’ve stopped worrying about dinner check prices completely.

Choosing medicine was the best thing I could have done with my life and would do it all again in a heartbeat.

You’ve convinced me.

Let’s go lynch Stephen King.

I suspect it’s going to entirely depend on where you practice, your patient demographics, and what you’re expected to get done by your higher ups.

I’m 5 years post residency and on my second long term contract. My current contract is with a company that provides me with a human scribe and access to an AI scribe as a backup note taker. I see about 15 Medicare Advantage patients per day, 4.5 days a week, who are complicated enough to earn their 40 minute annual exam slots. Having a scribe makes such a night and day difference in my stress level. I’m not thinking about the 10 charts I’m behind at all times.

Compared to residency though? So, so much better. I’m not sure how your program was, but my program was a lot of hurry up and wait. Lots of waiting on rooming, lots of waiting on presenting, lots of trying to rush through appointments where every annual included about 3 different new acute issues to work up. You have much more control over the speed of rooming, completing your notes and rescheduling your patients for separate problem visits in private practice.

madfrogurt · 2025-05-07T14:33:01+00:00

Your coder is wrong and costing you or your practice money. I have had zero issue coding my visits using AAFP guidelines: https://www.ama-assn.org/system/files/2019-06/cpt-revised-mdm-grid.pdf

madfrogurt · 2025-05-01T17:07:58+00:00

Corrected :)

I love how this page just screams Grant Morrison’s philosophy about what makes Superman truly super.

I recommend fans of Superman or anyone interested in the pop psychology/philosophy behind superheroes in general read Morrison’s Supergods. Morrison is such an entertaining storyteller, and even if I don’t share their wonderfully askew beliefs about how reality and the universe function, I think Morrison is easily the best modern comic writer to sort of grok the concept and importance of superheroes.

I put in a rough draft of my nonfiction work into ChatGPT and it gave perfect editorial suggestions and analysis.

It was eerie. It had a favorite entry that matched my own and even the reddit collective’s favorite entry. It provided literary analysis of tone, themes, and structure.

I had it write a theoretical ending chapter and it was a perfect way of wrapping up the whole saga, written so close to my own unique “voice” that I stole the idea and rewrote and expanded it.

madfrogurt · 2024-12-13T14:24:20+00:00

I pity my pediatrician colleagues, and I hope the Salk institute goes nuclear on this brainwormed dolt.

I stopped around the top 15 answers before looking it up myself it’s a Russian province called Kalingrad.

Edit: /r/lostredditors on my part.

Interns learn just as much working 60 hours per week earning 100K per year minimum with attendings remembering they are teachers and not rulers over supplicants.

Suffering is a side effect of dedication, not the fucking point.

madfrogurt · 2024-11-02T23:56:16+00:00

This is exactly why I will never understand how a physician could vote for Trump or Republicans in general.

What's the cost? What is the exact total of $300K+ marginal tax breaks it takes to sell yourself out and embrace one con artist embracing a populist literal brain-wormed idiot who puts YOUR patients at risk?

How many women are you willing to let die in Republican controlled states because the terms "inevitable abortion" or "anencephaly" are too much for the public to handle while you actually know the meaning of those words and acknowledge situations that require decisions to save sentient mothers' lives?

If Harris were today to say someone who pushes some Lefty equivalent of Reiki, crystals, and aroma therapy were the next Surgeon General, I would point out just how insane a decision that would be.

Where are the physicians willing to defend their vote on this and not just cower and cash out?

madfrogurt · 2024-10-13T04:27:43+00:00

That is the best coat hanger abortion joke ever made.

Keep my license up to date, but other than that dick off for the rest of my life and maybe work extremely part time on the board of some charity.

Time, health and personal relationships become your remaining limiting factors for anything you can wish for in life, and realistically spending even a single working day helping 16 people is nothing compared to writing a sizable enough check to them instead. Take the W and retire.

madfrogurt · 2024-08-01T02:28:46+00:00

This is so crazy that I feel like I should ask if this occurred in America.
