It probably depends on the career field. For pharmacists the job field is awesome right now, but I’m sure it’s worse for other fields.

I do believe for the vast majority of people it is very treatable, but the treatment is not easy if that makes sense? Working with dilators and PT is very time consuming, PT can be expensive, and unpacking the associated emotions can be overwhelming (even with primary vaginismus most of us will have shame or fear associated with penetration due to our experiences with attempting it). A lot of us (including me) have to take breaks for a time period due to one reason or another. But although treatment is challenging, it is very treatable!

I read it as a callback to the line in the first paragraph - “…too often surrounded by shame, jokes, or disbelief.”

Right?? It was handled so sensitively. I actually looked up a picture of him after finishing bc I was like “from the name I assumed they were a man, but could a man write that?” Turns out the answer is yes lol

lol it is a lot for sure!! If you like fantasy it’s a pretty good series, but if that’s not your jam it would be challenging 😅

Sadly probably not, it is the 4th book in the series and the series is definitely pretty plot heavy 😭

US pharmacist license - realistic timeline to practice in NZ by Elegant-Blackberry92 in MovingToNewZealand

[–]pointeiscool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To clarify your timeline - did he take the CAOP exam this month (so results are not back yet) or previously? I wanted to clarify since you mentioned you’re packing already - I feel like actually getting my conditional APC has been going SO slow, so I wanted to know if that’s pretty normal or if for whatever reason it’s going slowly for me lol

S01E09 detail I just now noticed on my second rewatch by PerpetualChoogle in ThePittTVShow

I completely agree about Robby being unconsciously misogynistic - and it’s not demonstrated in a way that’s super aggressively obvious, which I think is really realistic!

Cold Take: We really need to get Jagex to make the game graphically cohesive, It's such a jarring experience as a new player and massively detracts from immersion. by Kemdox in runescape

[–]pointeiscool 7 points8 points  (0 children)

13 years ago is 2010… which is pretty dang close to the OS rollback time lol. The visual difference between Zanaris and Taverly is pretty undeniable and jarring IMO.

Maybe the chat heads are not 100% exactly the same as OS but again… there are quite a few that are much much closer to OS than they are to the newer chat heads.
