#there can't be that many nurses

[jackredfieldwasmyjacob]

i am very sure that at this point all of the nurses of my town have at one point injected me my hormones and i like to think i'm sorta of a rite of passage for new nurses <3

#so today i had a new nurse lol #and she seemed fairly young possibly the same age as me #(she was also very cute which 😳😳) #but yeah it's funny cause they all say the same things to me no matter the nurse lol #and like i've been on this for 8 years now #even if i have like my main nurse (vicky i love you) she's not always there and so lots of other nurses have taken her place #during lockdown and stuff was especially hard cause she was in charge of the nurses so she would always be running around #and she would see me coming in and pointed to a nurse and said like 'treat him now please it's very quick' #and we would enter any random room and do it lol #at the end i ended up knowing all of the nurses working at the medical center during lockdown #now there's more like the last few times i've been more often than not it's been with new nurses #also like i'm aware my claim is probably not accurate cause there's two medical centers in my town but like... i imagine they rotate? #there can't be that many nurses #there is a hospital tho but it's private so it doesn't count <3

...just heard about the upcoming perk changes...hmm...yeah. the only good one definitely is the adrenaline nerf. I've wanted them to take away healing off hook forever.

the other perk changes are ass.

ultimate weapon is still outrageously unfair, even if you take away the screaming! to me, it feels like they just saw the uptick in people using calm spirit following the addition of ultimate weapon, and decided "hm, the way to deal with this is to remove the screaming." no! this perks needs to be reworked differently! given a longer cooldown, something! it does way too much for just one perk!

DS buff isn't going to stop tunnelling. strong killers don't care if you stun them, and weaker survivors likely won't even have DS because it's licensed...waste of a buff. just as they should do with off the record, they need to spread out these important anti-tunnel strategies to general perks. it's so unfair that something this important be gated behind a DLC. and no one perk should ever be too strong!

also, I saw otz's commentary on the changes. I could not agree more that certain killers should be nerfed directly, rather than trying to just balance perks generally. not all killers interact with different perks the same... nurse, wesker, huntress, blight, etc do not care about a stun, even if it's increased in length. you need to change them & how their powers work in relation to stuns, so survivors have a chance to get away from them, rather than buffing the perk so that old man ghostface has an even worse time in this dogshit meta lmao.

#dbd #thoughts about media #I haven't been on twitter in a while. I'm sure survivor mains are crying real hard about the adren nerf. #as if it was fair that the perk would heal you off hook like that. again: one perk should never do THAT much. #like. steve has a perk that heals you off hook. but it does ONLY that and you have to heal another survivor FIRST. #that feels fair! it does one thing and there's a trade-off! and the heal isn't immediate. #it's 16 seconds and then you heal. and you have base kit BT for 10 seconds to get away from the killer. #tbh- a slight buff to second wind would have been better than a DS buff. like. idk. reduce it to 12 seconds to heal off hook? #but second wind is a licensed perk again. so they should rather focus on making some general perk that does something like this instead. #there are sooo many survivor perks that are total dogshit and do nothing. including MANY general perks. REWORK THOSE!!! #I can't imagine this DS buff going to be a problem for hux because he's kind of a way more fair version of nurse. #he's very mobile. he just requires a lot more patience and skill to play. #I haven't seen anything about his planned changes yet. I'm hoping so badly that it will be a slight buff. #and by that I mean PLEASE MAKE SOMA FAMILY PHOTO BASE KIT!!!!!! #or even partially base kit!!! he should NOT be so dependent on one add on. #making it fully base kit wouldn't even be a problem because that would not impact kill rates at all. #this total hottie is only played by myself and a total of 5 other people worldwide. #making soma family photo isn't going to change that LOL. #like...some people might TRY him if he gets buffed. but I assure you- it would take a miracle to make more hux mains.

I will not be able to finish my louis and paul backstory fic in time for louis' month considering all i have to do including an emergency move to another city :( and I haven't had the time at all to get back to the ghost-house-or-is-it project. But maybe I can finish this roleplay-as-exposure-therapy-done-wrong "It Follows"-inspired fic in time for Halloween.

#I can't even manage to READ most of the fics i want to but I have the audacity to have ideas #though I don't have many of them so I should appreciate and nurse them haha #i have no idea if I like the it follows fic btw. it's just the only think I'm able to write these day aghgjgj #my posts

thinking about the amount of times I've cried out in pain or explicitly said "you're hurting me" to a clinician and they've just continued what they're doing and said it's necessary and not realising how collectively traumatic it is to have your body touched and manipulated past your comfort level and bc your body CAN move that way, they just don't give a shit lmao

#personal shit #Medical abuse TW #Today my nurse insisted on using a cuff that was too small to take my BP and held it down to take it #Which has bruised my arm #And then insisted the only way she could take my blood from my arm is if I hyperextended my shoulder and elbow #And when I cried in pain and was like I can't do that #She was like it's the best chance of getting your blood! #And now I'm thinking that I think about this each time this happens #And I didn't even realised I was hyperextending! #I just assumed I was stiff and couldn't straighten my arm and it was my fault bc shame #Which now I'm out is also not my problem! #So many ppl have been like it's fine to put you through excruciating pain for a bit bc it's easier for me and you'll live! #I'm going to throw pain science journals at clinicians until they understand

My january work schedule is literally just nighshifts with 2 mornings between them, they sniffed out the insomniac

#nursing #HELL YEAAAAA #i am a nightshifter thru and thru #only problem is that i can't sleep the next day so i get home at 7am and just live in a limbo #the head nurse gave me one nighsift at another ward as a test and ever since the nurse iw orked with said i was perfect for that #i started getting so many nighshifts since no one normal wants them lol #but i have one morning shift after a nightshift that one will kill me 100% #and we are so understaffed and there are 3 vacations and 2 sick leaves

I think Bri'ish people should adopt '12 Days of Mourning' every time they protest something or shut something down. Someone has for sure died today. A lot of people die every day. Many of them probably bc of something the government did or failed to do. And on what basis are they being denied the same honours as this random old lady? Next time there is a strike, a boycott or anything - 'I'm sorry, we are mourning here. You wouldn't want to be disrespectful in this time of loss, do you?' - 'wow, I can't believe you're stopping our march on a day of mourning for the average number of people who have died today in the United Kingdom'.

#blocking a street or something like: I can't believe cars drive here #you know how many people died today? #many of them were nurses or doctors or fire fighters #servants of this country! Talk about lack of patriotism!

my bookclubs' inability to understand nuance and to either misinterpret or completely ignore things blatantly stated in the text continues to drive me up the wall and yet i keep going because im desperate to get out of the house and make connections with people, especially people who also read. but after this last bookclub, where im still angry and frustrated a whole 24 hours later, im wondering if i should just stop because it doesn't get better and maybe i need to accept that it's not going to

#we read we were villains and i got so angry at how many times the text was completely ignored that i would've left if it wasn't so packed #i couldn't leave without it causing a scene so i sat there so frustrated i wanted to cry. especially since no one would let me speak #text post #don't mind me just late night venting #it didn't help that I've considered if we were villains one of my favorite books for years now. and i still stand by that after my reread #but it's not just this book. every book I've read and gone expecting to have im depth convos about everything but instead #all the difficult and interesting concepts seem to go over so many people's heads #and it's all so fucking black and white with them. and this time they really proved the can't handle morally grey characters #like what the fuck man? #and they're all adults older than me. so i get i sound like a pretentious little asshole but if you were there you'd see im nlt exaggeratin #someone really said 'only children don't develop empathy' and everyone just nodded like that's an actual thing? #i also had to explain that the reason a characters limbs were all fucked up after an overdose is bc overdoses can causes seizures #a fucking nurse was there!!! and i was the one that had to explain that! and several people went 'ohhhhhh' #AND THE CHARACTER EVEN HAD A FUCKING SEIZURE IN THE BOOK AFTER THE OVERDOSE #there's literally so much venting i could do but I've already done a lot so I'll leave it alone now

South Park tendency to kill/get rid off of the female school staff members made me believe Nurse Gollum was killed/fired in some godforgotten episode but nope, she is actually still active, despite all the red flags Ms Gollum is the only SP staff ever since the unaired pilot to have never leaved the workplace, she and Makey are the only OG lasting members

#the last special made me realize how many school stuff have been killed #including ALL the female teachers (ms ellen ms stevenson diane and margaret)! #and of course we can't forget chef #victoria and mr slave have been fired forever and garrison has an on-and-off relationship with his job #nurse gollum has been basically forgotten #only mackey PC principal and strong woman remain #at least strong will be around as long PC will be the principal #but it's stull fucked up #my post #stuff for me

“if you don’t like kids, you shouldn’t work with kids” feels like common sense and yet

#g talks #seeing so many videos of shitty teachers #that clearly just hate kids #or daycare workers #and hearing stories from my friends with autistic siblings that their 'special needs' teachers are being abusive #just like the hs mean girl to nurse pipeline #wtf is wrong with people #like #if you don't like certain people #and/or can't keep it to yourself and do your job like a professional #WHAT are you doing in that career??? #mine #/mobile #/okay to reblog

Woo!!!!!! FINALLY found a nutritionist that's knowledgable about feeding tubes and is willing and able to work with me!!!!

I was so fucking stressed bc Everyone I've talked to so far has said no to me, I was starting to think I was just gonna be handed feed bags and told 'good luck avoiding refeeding syndrome kiddo 👍'

Like even the fucking eating disorder unit that I unaffectionately call The Redacted Place Of Horrors rejected me. Y'know, the place famous for attempting to keep me locked up despite determining that I did not in fact have an eating disorder. They heard 'long-term medical feeding tube' and puffed up like a startled kitty cat, which was both hilarious and irritating. I was desperate enough that I would've totally let them bully me again if it meant I could avoid getting extremely ill

But!! Problem solved!! This nutritionist is really nice, she gave me SO much info and will meet me in the hospital when I go for my surgery 🥺

#pikaposts #medical anomaly blogging #i'm still a bit insecure abt all this like 'fuck am i sure i need/deserve this? can't i just be normal?' but it's slowly getting better #especially as i have sO MANY PEOPLE supporting me and working hard to make this happen. multiple doctors and nurses #and i did finally order accessories... i got zebra-striped ones for ehlers-danlos awareness/pride ✌️ #i'm not a Huge fan of zebra print but it's kinda growing on me

general anasthesia is a trip

#i have a great dentist 5 min walk from my house who's treated my teeth many many times over most of my life but now i'm too ill to stand it #so i had to drag my ass 1h and spend literally three months worth of my disability money to get it done in my sleep #and afterwards the assholes there kept rushing me sit up and start walking so i wouldn't be occupying the post op room for too long until #they saw i'm leaving the place in a wheelchair cause i can't walk more than a couple steps so soon after waking up #then they changed their tune #not when my mom explained everything about the state my body is in to all the doctors and nurses beforehand #I'm young and i don't look very ill so i'm probably just lazy and wanna sleep and occupy the room right #you'd think for that kind of money you'd be paying for some better bedside manners than that

I have just spent 2 hours building a lego orchid (I have not finished it) and it is honestly the happiest I have felt in like 3 months 😂

#like i am just sitting here by myself laughing doing drums with the big sticks and saying avada kedavra like voldemort #idk what to tell you guys #work is fucking hellish #i have been nursing this infection for weeks now #even if i wasn't there are so few things i could do in the outside world that would bring me this much joy #the weather is lousy bc of global warming you can't even go walk in the snow or feel compelled to go skating #and then also the impending doom of it all #anyway yeah lego #i could almost cry at the extra little pieces you get in case you lose some #and also the little contraption to make it easier to separate pieces if you make a mistake #just wow #my many millennial miseries

im so incredibly sad about the two healthcare workers shot and killed in dallas but i’m also just fucking angry. you wonder why your ER waits are so long, you wonder why it takes awhile to answer your call light, you wonder why your nurse, your aid, is burnt out? it’s because of the abuse healthcare workers suffer - physical, emotional, and sexual by the people they’re trying to help.

#emily.txt #every single coworker of mine every single person who works in healthcare has at least ONE story of a patient or loved one being violent #with them #PHYSICALLY #i can't even count how many stories i've heard of slurs being hurled at staff or verbal threats #or the men who flash nurses and ask us to hold their urinals for them because that inch of power makes them feel like a fucking man

my villain origin story: health professionals reacting to me losing weight, struggling to eat, or my voiced concerns about lowered appetite with any variation of ‘congratulations, i wish i had that problem’.

#most recently it was my psychiatrist #who i thankfully will not be working with anymore because i was FINALLY able to switch to a provider that treats ADHD in adults #but still it was a neat parting gift reminding me of the many other reasons i already didn't like working with her lol #when my breathing problems through the year led to me losing 20+ lbs in sudden succession #the comments from nurses about how good i looked ( malnourished and sickly ) had me feeling a Sort Of Way™ #can't imagine how fucking infuriating it must be to have any sort of struggle related with eating and not be thin like i am #annoying high pitch ringing in your ears

Are you sure that you're alright Quill??? That's a long time to be walking on a fractured foot

-Heathen, someone who has never fractured or broken a bone

Yea I'm good don't worry about it. It's not like I was doing nothing, I know how to deal with foot injuries; I iced, wrapped, and elevated my foot for those few days until it was determined that despite that my foot was not improving so then we went to Urgent Care

there we got x-rays and confirmed that my foot was fractured (I fractured it sunday morning, got the results of the x-ray sometime around 11pm-12am last night) and went ah shoot

I did find it amusing when the nurse who was helping told us that she was thinking "dang they're badass" when we were walking to the room to get the x-ray results because she knew I had a fractured foot and had offered me, who didn't know my foot was fractured, a wheelchair and I went nah it's good and then just walked after her on said fractured foot

anyway now my foot is in a splint for the next few days until I have an appointment with orthopedic and I am not allowed to walk on it which is very very annoying because I have so many things happening this week like damn wish I'd put off finding out my foot was fractured so I could continue walking around on it none the wiser :/ (no one actually do that that's a bad idea medically please seek care and don't walk on broken bones)

i won't lie tho when I first saw the bruise forming my thoughts were "woaa!! sick!!" /pos and the second was "haha teal bruise fitz color."

#quil's queries #heathen nonsie #quil's unholy underworld #tw injury #tw broken bone #if i'm remembering right it's fractured next to the pinky toe and like the middle outside of my foot #going to urgent care is annoying because have you /seen/ the healthcare in america? #but it's much more entertaining when I bring my dad along because he's a nurse and can't help but people watch #and in urgent care there are many hurt people so he just starts observing possible injury and also mistakes medical people #are making in terms of infection prevention. because that's what he specializes in #we were just sitting waiting and then the people put a wheelchair away (they're out front for easy access for patients) and he goes hmm #they didn't wipe that down that's a potential risk. #and then this kid walked in crying and he goes 'hmm he's hurt his left arm because he's crying and screaming so nothing's wrong with that #and he's holding his arm funny and he's got a trampoline park wristband and is still wearing the socks' #and it makes it much more fun #also the doors. the doors were automatic and people kept trying to walk into the wrong side and it was amusing #anyway that was my night hope everyone else is not breaking bones :)

If I may ask, is the AU where Silco and Vander adopts all the kiddos was because either he or Vander were (coincidentally) barren?

And how would the river scene had happened in this AU (if it did at all)?

Oh and I love your reluctant best aunt Sevika, I think she and Sky would be like the best aunties ever!

I'm assuming you're talking about Wet Nurse? (and not the variant of Zaun Family where they do just adopt them) They haven't tried for kids yet in that one, they made a deal that they wouldn't have kids until Zaun is independent and then Vander brought home two girls... and then two boys. (If it is the variant of Zaun Family than they are unable to conceive themselves but they'd already adopted Viktor by the point they even started to try and while it might have been part of the reason they adopted the others it's not the main one).

I think in my head Zaun just doesn't have a massive hang up about blood-family. And I think Silco's pretty neutral on kids until he has some (either through biology or adoption). And while Vander likes and generally wants kids at some point in his life in basically every verse of mine the first kid he has (or adopts) is kind of unplanned. So if they are unable to conceive themselves they kind of haven't dwelled on it or possibly even realised it before they... have some kids they adopted and then it's a bit of a non-issue because these are their kids.

In all my verses the river scene still happens it's just not always Vander who is there doing the attempted-Silco-killing. In the Wet Nurse verse (so the one where they adopt the kids but no Zaun Representative) it's one of the early Shimmer-beasts Singed and Silco are making in secret that is doing the attempted-Silco-killing. In Zaun Family here's a post about it with links to others.

I mean Sevika already is effectively Jinx's reluctant aunt in the canon. And there is just something so fun about her now playing that role to all their kids. Even if she's butting heads with all of them as much as she's looking out for them.

Sky would be such a good aunt! But she's very much the nice and sweet aunt that is possibly a bit too unsure about the kid doing something that might hurt themselves. The parents aren't worried about leaving their kid alone with her but she is very worried because what happens if they get hurt on her watch!?
