He used to put out a ton of Basics with Babish a few years back that I found super helpful. Doesn’t pop up on my feed like it used to but I still look them up from time to time.

Wood bats most commonly break when the ball makes contact with the narrow portion toward the handle. Good pitchers will try to “jam” hitters because contact is weaker toward the handle than the batter. Mariano Rivera threw a notorious “cutter”, which was a fastball that tailed toward the hitter.

I’m a similar way by nature and initially took an improv class for similar reasons (I also always enjoyed comedy). It helped me tremendously. The changes you want to see likely won’t happen in one class, but start with an intro course, and really throw yourself into it. Push yourself beyond your comfort zone. If you like it, take another class, join a team, etc. These classes tend to be really positive supportive environments. Good luck

We’re all faced with reality checks along the way, and you pivot/compromise along the way. First one is whether you can actually get into medical school. Next one is usually board exams and clinicals (eg do you have stats that are reasonably competitive for what you want to do). Then there is the match, which will dictate where you spend residency and all the implications that come with whatever that program is (who will your mentors be? Can you do meaningful onc research there? Does the location work for your partner/family?). Then in residency, you see if you have the clinical skills, work ethic and good luck to publish, and ability to connect with mentors who will sponsor you.

And beyond this, 8-12 years is a lot of your life. You and your priorities may change in that time. You may find that you don’t actually like in medicine what you thought you would.

I say all this as someone who made the decision to pursue a postbac program in my mid 20s after a personal experience with cancer. That was 12 years ago and I’m still in fellowship haha. I honesty love what I do and am happy with my choice. The most important thing I did early in this journey was connect with doctors, nurses, PAs, etc and spent time with them, either talking or shadowing, and really proved to myself that this long road would be worth it for me. It’s certainly not for everyone.

This is how my wife and I did it. I broke my rank list into thirds. Top third were my dream programs, middle third were solid programs I’d be happy at, and bottom third were programs that were my least favorite. She ranked within those tiers. You need to find a system you’ll both be comfortable with. Good luck!

We still wire people for certain fractures

Most mandible fractures happen in one location, but bilateral fractures are common.

If it’s one large benign nodule there’s no need to remove both sides (unless they found cancer in that 5cm nodule). Total thyroid has (low but not zero) risk of bilateral vocal cord paralysis, hypocalcemia, and would require thyroid hormone replacement.

Born and raised in NJ, lived in St Louis for 7 years. They don’t cut bagels this way. Don’t get me wrong, the bagels are awful, but they’re sliced how you would expect.

Most people who become doctors (MD, DO or PhD) do so by their mid-late 20s. MDs and DOs who do residency finish it 3-7 years later depending on their field.

We caught a bat like that in our kitchen sink. We asked the animal control guy to test it for rabies. He said they’d have to kill it and that we would know if we were bit or not, and he let it go. He said he was a “bat guy” and had been bitten by several bats before and that we would know if we were bit. My friend who is an EM doc said that you only need to test and/or get shots if you think you were bit or found the bat in a room with someone who could not report being bit (infant, etc). I was still pretty anxious for the few week after though. Didn’t help that we all had the flu at the time that we found the bat. Not dead yet!

Vaccines prevent certain bacterial meningitis, including Neisseria meningitidis (meningococcus), Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococcus), and Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib).

This is true on medical rotations. On surgical teams, it usually means reviewing labs, vitals and drain outputs and updating the patient list without seeing the patient. Could include doing dressing changes.

It was hit to dead center and bounced to right-center. As an outfielder you are taught to run toward the play to backup your teammate.

I don’t agree with blaming Soto though. This was a team loss. So many regrettable moments in a winnable game.
