I gotta have a colonoscopy this week and I got that trans woman anxiety thing going on.

I have a message and the message would be a typically balanced, nuanced, and objective "fuck off."

“There are things worse than death and we do all of them here.” —me, at least twice a week at work.

POV: you just mass transfused two coolers worth of product into an esophageal varicices patient.

A person holds an open can of miller light in their right hand.

One of the dayshift nurses here uses ChatGPT to write nursing notes.

First of all, I hardly ever write nursing notes, but also… wtf 😳

Someone knows… what suture works best in a pinch for dental floss? Asking for a friend.

I ate more than the recommended number of flintstones vitamins and now I’m trans.

Two snaps would have prevented this but alas…

Thankfully the jacket I was wearing gave good butt coverage so no one knew I peed my pants.

I was trying to be efficient (read: lazy) of my time by not unsnapping my body suit and just sliding it to the side to pee.

And ended up driving home with a wet butt. 😢

Tell me why the HBO app on Roku cannot remember where I left off in a series?

Imagine hating me and I’m just standing in my globally aphasic and dysarthric patient’s room telling him he has catheter and he can just pee.

Interesting phrasing in that headline. 🤔

a man in a suit and tie is talking to someone and saying hey .

Alt: Archer saying, “Hey. Phrasing!”

Related: I’ve never smoked/vaped weed (or nicotine) but I think if I could use THC legally in my own time, without fear of losing my job/license, it would do wonders for my anxiety.

Sometimes I worry that I’m a shitty nurse but I think truly bad nurses don’t concern themselves with guilt.

Right? I don't have beliefs about my gender. It just is what it is. Other people sure do though

Speaking of ultrasound, guess who found a superficial venous thrombosis while trying to get an IV this morning?

Neuro Tran 🤷🏻‍♀️ @transnursing.com · 21d

I really want to buy a wireless ultrasound probe to have because it’s a nightmare trying to find and borrow a cart here to place IVs.

Anyone have any experience/recommendations? I trained on a VScan Air, but they’re probably out of reach, price wise. But I’m looking really hard at the Vave unit.

People do this in healthcare and it always irritates me. “Look at that patient. They sit there with an iPhone but say they can’t afford their medications?” Buddy, you are mad at the wrong thing.

Qasim Rashid, Esq. @qasimrashid.com · May 24

Never take seriously those who ridicule low income people for having a smartphone or laptop.

“If they’re so poor how did they buy an iPhone???”

Because they’re trying to escape poverty, not the 1700s, genius. If you think basic tech access is unnecessary or a luxury, survive a month without it.

My parents had custom handmade cherry bedroom furniture made when they were in their late 30s/early 40s.

I have my dead friend’s beat-up bedroom furniture from Ashley.

Assuming some of us survive this mess, one of us can write a paper comparing the regret rate of gender affirming surgery vs turning point tattoos.

After taking care of an esophageal varices patient for 3 days , it only makes sense that I’d wake up with a hangover this morning.
