“At least I didn’t think for a while,” a line from one of my favorite songs. @iameden.bsky.social

Hospital administrators will have you feeling like the red shirt guy on Star Trek away team.

Pretty sure I saw the highest troponin I will see, working in neuro.

Sometimes I forget Orville Peck’s name, so I just search Spotify for “gay cowboy songs.” That always works.

I had periareolar BA nearly 10 years ago. Why am I suddenly getting some keloid looking stuff going on? Wtf?

TFW when the neurosurgeon throws in dysmetria instead of ataxia, just to spicy things up.

Yes, I do think that homeostasis is a joke. Thanks for asking.

updating my resume (derogatory)

As a post-op trans woman in healthcare, I kinda want to have a CT of my abdomen just to see what a radiologist would put in the read… without knowing my past medical history.

The insidious thing about trans bathroom bans is even if you won’t visit one of the states… air travel becomes a risk. The likelihood of a layover in a place like Texas is high. I spent a couple hours in Houston back in 2024 and wasn’t sure if I was breaking the law using the women’s restroom.

Texts I would send if I had a spine: — I can buy breadcrumbs at the grocery, I don’t need them from you.

Anyone remember when buy(.)com changed their name to rakuten, because that’s definitely catchier.

I’m titrating Neo for systolics greater than 160. Please kill me.

Charging my phone so I can go play on my phone at the bar instead of in my bed.

Can I get some ADH for concerts? I need to not have to pee for like 3 hours.

This may be related to my sore boobs, my chocolate chip cookie consumption (i don’t like chocolate), and my digestive tract being hyperactive. 🤔 I have a feeling that my progesterone is at its peak.

Patient had an ischemic stroke and fell while on thinners… Neurology (primary): management of abdominal bleed per trauma team. Trauma note: no surgical intervention, should resolve, consult IR for embolization if hgb downtrends. Management per primary. Nursing: 🤦🏻‍♀️ We need an adult.

How many 13th reasons can you have? Because I have like 37… at least.

If my boss was truly interested in keeping me in line, she'd have me precepting continuously... because then i'd be forced to follow the rules.

Being spun out over a girl that might want me under perfect conditions as a self-aware person is so fucking dumb. Like it’s not even a sex thing for me. I just want to breathe the same air as her. I’ll go down on her if that’s what she wants, but I’m just as likely to change the oil in her car.

If you used Linewire, get your cholesterol checked.

Taking care of stroke patients your age is wild. And their labs look about like mine. Hell my a1c was slightly worse.

Sorry for responding so quickly, I’m not sure if it’s love, limerence, or garden variety obsession, but I really wanna talk to you.

Opening Grindr just to feel something.

Sure sex is great but have you ever just had a really good pee after the executive dysfunction paralysis demon loosens their grip on your neck?

“So the police citation and the EMS run sheet suggests that he was found walking in the street, full Winnie the Pooh mode. Just a shirt and no pants.” —me, giving report to dayshift

I don’t know what y’all are talking about… Newsom seems like a great Republican candidate.

I fell down a rabbit hole of limerence TikTok and… oh no.

Family member is legit pressed about my patient’s blood sugar only being 91. So I gave them some juice. Just to make them feel better.

Hot take: for years we’ve told men to get out of their mom’s basement but look at John Fetterman now.

Dumbest shit imaginable

Hot take: med students should shadow a nurse for a full 12 hour shift. Come on doc, let’s go do these q15min neuro, sheath site, and pulse checks. Oh look someone put in more labs right after we sent them.

Blah.

After years of dealing with the same dumb ass shit in my brain, I’ve learned that sometimes you just gotta keep going long enough to take some trazodone and maybe tomorrow you don’t want to die.

I’m kinda like Jesus except I turn bottles of wine into urine.

I have to keep reminding myself of two important things: — if they wanted to, they would. — no reply is a reply. a loud one.

Let’s say… hypothetically, that I had a friend that hasn’t filled their taxes in a few years… What should they do? Hypothetically speaking, of course

All I’m saying is that if we had executed the people insisting on the use of irrelevant, we wouldn’t have this problem with you’re and your.

On one side, you have trans people asking to be left alone and maintain our access to health care. On the other, a bunch of people who believe we shouldn't exist. But Cass believes both sides are the same. This whole interview is atrocious. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Ai could replace most of the nursing c-suite and we’d probably not notice.

I feel like I’m dehydrated but damn if I’m not peeing every 45 minutes tonight.

Not much has changed, tbh. Except my new car won’t fit in my garage…

It would be so much easier if I was told to fuck off. The breadcrumbs trailing off to nothing is heartbreaking because there’s that strand of hope.

Wait. Itchy inner ears are a perimenopause thing? I’m going to give my self an estrogen injection right now.

You’re rushing home to start dinner. I’m rushing home because I kept saying, “let me do this one thing and then I’ll go pee,” for 12 hours and now I’m about to piss my car seat. We’re not the same.

The hardest thing in the world for me… is being ok. Not great, but ok. Ok alone. And someone draws you in with a hard and fast intensity, flirting, hand holding, cuddling, a kiss. And you fall like a house of cards. Only to have the energy change within weeks and you’re left to pick up the pieces.

I really hope I have enough advance warning before they come to put me in a camp.

My crush never watching my instagram stories is kinda disappointing… but on the upside I can yearn on main.

Ok but hear me out:

Duolingo doing streak nags at 7am is a bit much.
