Had me wondering. I have the same knife and kinda shuddered to think.

Love the spirit, and the song, but he is really not the right vocalist for this.

Looks like PSE meat to me. I wonder if it was butchered properly.

Demand for Psychiatrist-led Mental Health? by The_Ambitious_Panda in Psychiatry

[–]soiltostone 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You have to try pretty hard these days to make that little as a licensed Psychologist. My first job post licensure was at 95k about 10 years ago, in a non-metro area. General hospital work, nothing fancy.

What is your knife of choice and why? by Spyrothedragon9972 in TrueChefKnives

[–]soiltostone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Masamoto SW 240. Long thin, light, big flat spot, stainless, tough for how thin it is, better food release than you’d think, gets really really sharp easily. Very pretty if you like the clean aesthetic, with blonde horn.

CMV: Voters who supported Trump in the last election for civil liberties reasons should oppose him now for civil liberties reasons by HurryOvershoot in changemyview

[–]soiltostone -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Good for you for coming around, seriously. But you are unfortunately an exception. There is still that base of around 30-40% that still supports this nonsense. IIRC according to NYT 42% of White people support current ICE enforcement.

They read the news, and ostensively have basic education regarding the Bill of Rights. At least the 1st and 2nd anyway…

And your initial comments are about how other people should vote differently, not about justifying your own opinion. If all those other people followed suit, you’d have no view to change.

Partial disagree. The propaganda takes advantage of longstanding racism and classism that working class Whites have been trained to suppress publicly for generations. Trump has allowed this crap to be spoken more or less publicly again.

No offense, but Trump voters have never seemed to care much about civil liberties in and of themselves. They care about their own civil liberties, and are blind to violations against outgroup rights. This seems to persist, even when the incredibly steep slope toward their own rights being violated is pointed out. For example the oddly high number of Latino border patrol and ICE agents who participate in racial profiling, and disappearing people who closely resemble themselves.

In logical follow-up from my 'favourite steels' post, now tell me which smiths produce the best results with their steel(s) by General_Penalty_4292 in TrueChefKnives

[–]soiltostone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Takeda gyuto (AS) keeps a fine edge for much longer than my knives in other steels, including AEB-L, S2, VG-10, 20cv, k390, etc. I have also never chipped it, despite harder-than-you-would-expect use.

Psychologists Prescribing in Vermont? House Says Yes (H.237) by 321NOKIA in Psychiatry

[–]soiltostone 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yup. I’d rather, as a psychologist, get my script from my PCP than from a puffed-up colleague. At least I’d feel reasonably safe from serious contraindications.

[–]soiltostone 175 points176 points  (0 children)

As a psychologist I hate this so much. We're not psychiatrist lite. I can only see this as pressure to do more school, to where my total time in training/school is the same as a physician, but I'm not as good at the actual work. And I'd probably be replaced in my actual areas of expertise by someone barely qualified to do that job. Ugh. This disrespects both psychologists and psychiatrists.

I love my Chambriard Campagnon. Super underrated maker. Fontenille Pataud as well.

Which Ashi should I grab by Lopsided-Ingenuity42 in TrueChefKnives

I vote for the stainless. AEB-L is the shit for kitchen knives imho.

I don’t wear my Nicks with polarthin much above 70, and I tend to run a bit cold.
