I’m just gonna go around randomly offering $5K to people for them to do what I want with no intention or plan of actually paying them. I think it’s a great concept and should work out without any issues.

#NeverForget
     On 9/11/2001, I was a junior in college studying fine arts. I had already worked as a firefighter, cop, and E.M.T., but I saw these as just hobbies, a way to expand my horizons. Instead, I planned on a career in the arts. After the attacks, our economy suffered, and jobs in fine arts were difficult to find. I was forced to reassess my career ambitions, and I started down a different path.
    Al Qaeda’s goal with the attacks was to get us to change our way of life. For me, it worked. After 9/11, I discovered that I was not meant to be an artist, but to be a physician. I became an Army doctor and served my country. I continue to serve my community through medicine and the arts. It’s the best way that I can honor the victims who lost their lives twenty-five years ago, and it has given me a truly fulfilled life.
    All those who lost loved ones on 9/11 have my prayers and condolences. Still, it’s a day from which I, personally, derive strength. It is the day that I began to discover who I am and how I should live my life. I’ve found that, through adversity, I am stronger. This is a trait that Americans possess as a whole, and it will serve us well again soon.

Please, never forget.

So even Yale says Medicare for all is a great idea. Saving $1 trillion and over 100,000 lives per year by cutting out the insurance companies who provide no care, no necessary service, and unnecessarily complicate care . I’m in. ysph.yale.edu/news-article...

I just did some rough math on this and what I found is that men between 25 and 45 who are unmarried and meet the 6-6-6 criteria represent 0.02-0.04% of the male population. Good luck swimming in that dating pool.

I’m not defending his actions. But, you asked the question so…doctors are getting screwed. The money is shit compared to what we’re expected to do. And, we don’t actually start making shit money until we’re 35. So, fuck retirement. I’ll work until I’m dead or until the work kills me. Great.

Here’s one problem with this garbage. The old vaccine schedule was evidence based. The one the ghouls in office are trying to impose is not. As a physician, I must follow evidence based medicine. But, doing so now opens me up for liability. This WILL harm children. apnews.com/article/vacc...

As a physician, it’s not being thin skinned. It’s a state of hyper vigilance. PTSD sufferers struggle to lay down traumatic events in long term memory. They stay in short term memory making every day feel like the same day the event occurred. Struggling with these symptoms? Please seek help:
