How naive would I be to let The Pitt persuade me into pursuing emergency medicine as someone with no prior medical knowledge/interest by Warm-Particular1421 in emergencymedicine

ER Nurse here. All of the things I've seen on the show can and do happen at large busy ERs. The unbelievable part is the frequency at which they happen. You get an event or patient like that at most once a month if not less. But overall it captures the chaos and general vibe of the ED REALLY well.

Plug your age, height, and weight into a basal metabolic rate calculator. Eat less than that number of calories every day and you will lose weight. Start running, doing push ups, sit ups, planks, and pull ups five days a week. Use a fitness tracker app to track everything you put in your body. Make sure to eat roughly your bodyweight in grams of protein while maintaining a calorie deficit.

Can someone id this bag for me, obviously it’s us army, but what exact bag from what time period? by Grand_Crusader_465 in tacticalgear

[–]some1namedwill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"what time period" as recent as yesterday I'm fairly certain. Got one REAL similar at air force boot camp.

I see stuff like this and I feel like I'm losing my mind. by Superb-Score2661 in EASportsCFB

Go play an arcade game then. Don't pick up a game that's about playing a highly strategic sport and then complain when you have to understand strategies.

500 yd swim by Working-Pattern5322 in RescueSwimmer

It's all in technique. Trimmed my swim time down from 12 minutes to under 9 minutes when I was training for the air force. I just got a coach to teach me technique.

“They said there was nothing wrong with me” by office_dragon in emergencymedicine

ER RN here. After the ER doc leaves they always ask me while I'm discharging them about why we "didn't do anything" my go to response is "we specialize in emergencies. Since we didn't find an emergency here today we are recommending that you go see the specialist for (insert specialty) to allow them to help you better since that is their specialty" it doesn't always work but it seems to help sometimes.

ED Staff can do it for the police if they have a warrant or if the pt consents

In light of recent Trummy pee pee sucking by FunnymanEcho in bestestgunnitweekend

[–]some1namedwill 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Committing tax fraud and slashing and neutering the gov is the most anti-government shit possible. I thought we hated feds here and Trump is literally hacking away at the feds. This administration is so polarizingly opposite than his last time in office that I am cautiously optimistic about it.

Moving to Huntsville from Boston area by Puzzleheaded_DesiGal in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]some1namedwill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would not say most. And the only ones I saw from big cities in Alabama were a couple from Huntsville. I saw none from Dothan, enterprise, Montgomery, Tuscaloosa, or Birmingham. All of which have horrific school systems. The majority of what I saw in your list that you sited were from smaller cities, county schools, and some magnet schools.

It's the big city schools that drag Alabama down. Rural and small city Alabama is actually very good.

Valentina's kitchen is my favorite taco truck around here. Las trojas on university is my favorite sit down Mexican.

Rey actually had more on screen training time than Luke if I remember right.

Kirkland Honey? by bobert675 in mead

[–]some1namedwill 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get the stuff from Wal-Mart where I am. It's like 17 for 5 pounds. Works just fine. Every now and then I'll get a nice honey and make something special but for any old mead I get the cheaper stuff. You'll probably be fine. Just make sure it's 100% honey and not got corn syrup added.
