If you spent a long time in an ICU and felt a loving male presence that is 5'11", you have met a nurse. That was a nurse.

I just worked medical team at a 24 hour rock climbing competition where people climb outdoors while sleep deprived and without trail lights, just their own headlamps. We only sent one person to the hospital this year, so that event is safer than a trump rally.

Me, tired from standing in line, hand my ID to the TSA agent. They look back at me with death in their eyes. We both know I have a full bottle of water in my hands. We say nothing. Nothing matters anymore. They hand my ID back & we both pause for a moment in the shared rebellion. It is all we have.

Sure enough, they screwed up the IV. Anyone saying this is unprecedented is wrong. This has happened many times before because the people doing it are often poorly trained. It makes the inhumane barbaric. apnews.com/article/chri...

Christa Pike is in critical condition after Tennessee’s failed execution attempt, her lawyers say
Attorneys for Christa Pike say the death row inmate is still alive but in critical condition a day after the state's failed attempt to execute her for the 1995 murder of a woman.

That story is always the first thing that comes to my mind with Pete Ricketts.

I guess if you're spending your own money to campaign to get the law changed so you can execute someone, you're more likely to care about how they're stored.
010
John @rncaptain.bsky.social · 01/10/2026
That's possible, for sure. Drugs stored in extreme temps can have less effectiveness. It isn't quite like milk that goes bad though. Many drugs have a relevant shelf life beyond the expiration date. Poor storage is also suggestive of people handling these things that have no clue what they're doing.

John @rncaptain.bsky.social · 01/10/2026
There are many websites that record these failures, here is one. Capital punishment is already an inhumane form of punishment, and the fact that it is often done by incompetent officers exacerbates the trauma. deathpenaltyinfo.org/executions/b...

If it is not a terrible IV placement as the culprit, it is likely someone not knowing how to dose things right, leaving them with less than lethal doses.
210
John @rncaptain.bsky.social · 01/10/2026
Speaking of bad IVs, that is usually the culprit. Most of the time it is an inexperienced person doing the IV, & they just end up blasting meds into the skin tissue. It is very painful. There are records of people poking inmates for a long time trying to get access & then still screwing it up.

3) a cardioplegic. Fancy way of saying something to stop the heart. Usually potassium, As the heart can't handle a bunch all at once. This burns like hell in the skin if the IV is bad.

2) a paralytic. This does two things at once. It stops the diaphragm from moving so they stop breathing. It also makes them not move any muscles so the people watching think it is peaceful. If the sedative is not strong enough, it is not peaceful, it is like being trapped in a suffocating body.

John @rncaptain.bsky.social · 01/10/2026
Many states run into issues finding this because many pharmaceutical companies don't want death associated with them. You end up w/ states in the US buying them from sketchy places internationally, like when US governor Pete Ricketts spent $54k of state money but had them blocked on inport.

How do you mess up lethal injection? Well, as a crna who spends every day not killing people with drugs, let me fill you in. Lethal injection is often with 3 drugs: 1) A sedative. Usually barbituates.

Omaha peeps be careful driving this AM. Many streets that flooded have washout piles that people have been running into.

A car got pulled in and the driver took refuge at our house before I could give them a ride home. Streets have a ton of washout so be careful in the morning! Lots of cops and wrecks put now.

What if I live in climate with harsh winters and no garage? Any special way to care for them? Normally I just cover my compost up with plastic to insulate it. Would love to do this but don't want to freeze them over.

Yes, the private sector. Famous for their empathy for the health insurance consumer. They give you choices like "that isn't covered" and "pay a big deductible first." UHC CEO got shot because people are such fans of the most competitive companies. Bring us more deregulation, please, that will fix it

For non-NE people, you gotta really be sucking as a republican to need a president to rally for you anywhere west of Lincoln. The idea of western and central NE leaving red for independent/blue is unheard of.

It is not the healthcare professional's job to detain people. We are not law enforcement. We are mandatory reporters of abuse and have strict rules about restraints, but not required to tackle someone to stop them from leaving AMA (against medical advice). The door is over there.

Sen. Susan Collins helped steer millions in federal defense contracts to Navatek, whose CEO illegally funneled thousands of dollars to her campaign. The FBI sought to launch a probe and was eyeing Collins and other lawmakers. Then Trump gutted the unit in charge. THREAD 🧵
Martin Kao, CEO of defense contractor Navatek, poses next to Sen. Susan Collins for a photo. Collins is holding a model of a boat in her hands. Behind them is a large sign with the Navatek logo.

I saw this same logic after Obama was prez, mostly from right wing acquaintancs. "A black man was president, racism isn't a thing anymore." Then following line is if white men don't dominate a field, it is because white men are persecuted. Quick to victim shame but also love playing the victim.
