Yup. There is an undertone of disbelief with it to me.

Yes, I know in the context of healthcare it tends to mean “to describe something that hurts or makes one feel ill”, but the broader connotation is often interpreted more negatively.

The medical note phrasing “complains of” really bothers me.

It isn’t a complaint or some trivial grievance being aired. It is their experience.

Especially silly with trauma. “C/O of stab wound”….that’s a thing that happened.

Every now and then I walk through somewhere in my neighborhood and have a really magical experience with a sense of community where I’m reminded why I love NYC.

Had that in Tompkins Square Park this morning.

Admittedly, most of the people I know here are straight, but I don’t hang out with them much.

I know it has been effective for them and it is totally the point, but I’m really getting tired of this “flood the zone” strategy and the nonstop lies/intentionally misleading statements.

I do this at home, but it is a bit different. (I also do pour over, French press, and aeropress depending on my mood at home.)

Yea, I have a machine for the reading room. I also have a hand burr grinder, aeropress, and electric kettle for when I have more time and want something a little more like regular coffee. As expensive as they are, it is faster and cheaper than the alternative.

Something I don’t think he understands is that rules of engagement are to protect OUR soldiers and interests as well.

Em Moss, M.D. @emmamd.bsky.social · 16d

I don’t think they cared.

Em Moss, M.D. @emmamd.bsky.social · 16d

“Can” is doing some heavy lifting in that statement.
