It's about time this is finally hitting the news. Casper is the most recent and most aggregious invalid cash grab that medical schools have broadly adopted without any good reason. I hope it causes admissions to reassess things.

Most Canadian medical schools are screening future physicians with something called the Casper test — marketed as being able to assess people skills and predict future success. But critics say there’s...

The first foreign leader the demented and psychotic Cheeto in the White House receives is a genocidal, bigoted sociopath. That fits.

The ICC finally issuing arrest warrants for these genocidal fascists is the first step towards regaining some semblance of humanity.

If one more person reminds me to #BeKind I will…

…not

Toxic kindness is as bad as all the other grim behaviours I talk about

It’s performative, rhetorical & often weaponised to mean “don’t do things I don’t like”

It’s discretionary,silences marginalised voices & maintains the status quo

Spending thousands for a private-pay MRI to end up with results that you can't understand and that the doctor who ordered the test won't explain to you.

And neither the college that requires MDs to follow-up on tests they order nor the Ministry who licences MRI facilities will take responsibility.
I paid $1500 for an MRI They told me that the doctor's role in signing my referral form was simply to enable my MRI appointment. “This does not include a consultation to discuss your MRI results,” Whole Body MRI said, adding that I should go to my family doctor for any followup. As for what responsibility physicians have, if any, to discuss test results with their patients, the College of Physicians and Surgeons said doctors should communicate “clinically significant” results promptly, but can use their judgment on whether to inform patients of “nonsignificant results.” “In my view, a doctor referring an individual they have never met, whose medical records they have never seen, for a medically unnecessary or medically necessary test, is substandard and unethical,” says Toronto medical malpractice lawyer Paul Harte. “The college should be promoting a standard of practice, not coming up with excuses to facilitate one of their members increasing their revenue.” Either way, my experience getting a private MRI scan left me confused. I couldn't figure out who was responsible for what, or what regulations govern this whole new private health­care sector. When I asked the college and the province who is ensuring private health­care clinics like Whole Body MRI are following the rules, they each pointed a finger at the other. The college told me that licensing considerations for MRI services are overseen by the Ministry of Health. The Ministry of Health told me that it does not regulate uninsured procedures, like private­pay full­body MRI scans, and that it is the college's role to set out expectations for the conduct of physicians, including the provision of these types of services.

Stop trying to embarrass fascists.

Start finding ways to materially hurt, obstruct, or terrify them.
