I love genuine questions and people putting in the effort to love and understand each other better. If you come at me just wanting to argue I'm going to troll you back. FAFO.

  • Administrative task management

    Jump

  • I did this to epic on my charge nurses computer last night and she thought it was magic. I've made it clear that I will provide these and many other services to the charge nurse as long as I don't ever have to actually do it personally (I don't want to have to explain to other adults what their job is). Thus the balance is maintained.

  • People who reject challenging ideas as stupid without engagement are like intellectual nepobabies

    Jump

  • There is but you gotta think on your feet as it were and even then you don't always succeed. When I was last hospitalized I knew my silicone laces were psych safe but I didn't bother trying to explain it to the employee; I just asked if they could take them out. They poked at them for a few seconds before realizing and I got to wear my own shoes for the rest of my stay. You gotta give people juuust enough info to sneak the realization in there and it's a suuuper hard (and moving) target to hit.

  • AI is the digital equivalent of an atom bomb. You can refuse it but you can't prevent others from using it... and there may be dire consequences if only the worst people have it.

    Jump

  • Yeah I'm worried about them

    a) creating botnets that simulate grassroots political movements

    b) as this user said, the joke about everybody having their own government agent was absurd because that level of attention given to an individuals activity was impossible. That's about to be a lot less impossible.

  • I often tell my patients that dogs don't think about how well they chew a bone and cats don't think about how well they scratch a post. they're just behaviors they have to do to not go bonkers. humans have a fundamental need to create and we literally go crazy if we don't.

  • hello Fediverse! how do neurodivergent peeps get jobs?

    Jump

  • Can’t recommend nursing for neurodivergence. Not in a “you’re not good enough” kinda way. I very much proved that I can. I had to learn a buuunch of new social and communication skills, and I did have to “prove” I could to my instructors and for about the first six months at any new job.

    You can absolutely be a nurse with neurodivergence. But whether it’s right or wrong, you’re going to have to put in some extra effort in areas you’re probably not used to. You should first consider whether or not that’s actually worth it to you. That part matters more than people admit.

    It also helps that I work psych. I’m doing a lot of communication with people more like me. But that also comes with the downside of a lot of that communication being them yelling at me and trying to hit me. They’re specifically the subset of neurodivergents with more trauma, or in a particularly bad place in their life, and often were never taught the emotional regulatory skills needed to solve problems without doing that (my sister certainly never learned them while we were growing up and I've got a permanent back injury to prove it).

    Again right or wrong matters very little there. Should someone have gone to the extra effort to teach them not to hit people in ways that they were able to fully engage with? Definitely. Do neurotypicals also sometimes miss learning that skillset? Sure, but it happens less often because more childcare services are designed to teach them those skills than neurodivergent children. Still leaves me dodging punches from auDHD peeps at the end of the day.

  • How do YOU personally determine if someone is a good or bad person?

    Jump

  • Most people are good. Most people forget to be kind to others sometimes.

    Some people forget to be kind to others more. I kinda don't like that.

    Some people need to cause others discomfort to feel like they are in control of their lives. I dislike that.

    Some people feel that they have the right to or even should cause others discomfort because they have some kind of birthright granted by their religion, how aggressive their ancestors were, or some perception that they've worked harder than others. I feel that such people should either be rigorously reeducated or in some way removed from access to other humans entirely.

  • Mistakes were made

    Jump

  • At first I thought the mistake was the powdered creamer. I've worked in institutions basically my entire adult life and I've had all kinds of shit coffee and I'd rather just rawdog the boiled suggestion of coffee straight from the concentrate carton's teat than fuck with that grittyass bullshit.

  • My phone, iPad, and laptop finally all use the same USB-C charger. The galaxy is at peace.

    Jump

  • My tablet doesn't support it I was so confused. I got a work laptop that I literally only use for teaching but I use it's charger at home for everything that thing is a BEAST.

  • Have you ever solved a Rubik's Cube? And how?

    Jump

  • Same. It took me a little longer but it makes such a nice fidget for lectures / meetings. The procedurality of it is almost soothing.

  • Rule

  • I keep telling people that if AI can actually replace you then you probably didn't have a real job to begin with. Me n the tradies are doin just fine.

  • Web principles

    Jump

  • ...yes?

  • If real life loaded like a video game did, what would the loading screen tips be?

    Jump

  • REM sleep.

  • How did you feel when you turned 18? Did you do anything special?

    Jump

  • It's the last thing they can force you to do (but playing along can have benefits).

  • misleading cover

    Jump

  • Yes.

  • That's literally just the text adventure video game Corruption of Champions (CoCs). The sci-fi version is Trials in Tainted Space (TiTS).

    Hopefully, he will be 6 underground by that time.

    Jump

  • Nah he was just quiet senile instead of loud senile. I've had patients that are rather agreeable despite low cognitive function. They don't wind up in the hospital as much and get discharged quicker because the agreeableness means they can accept home caregivers more safely, but they very much still need assistance with decision making. He wasn't more coherent per se, just more able to cooperate with his handlers. Ignoring morality (a distressingly common occurrence throughout the history of humanity) is it preferable to have a leader who accepts control of the oligarchs more placidly or more chaotically? I don't speak to my parents anymore for a variety of reasons (including politics) but one tiny spark of something they did get right was that trump is slightly harder to keep under control, and is accelerating the destruction of our broken political system. We ultimately just differed in opinion on whether the coming system is more likely to be better or worse.

  • How many people actually know their cat's birthday? I wrote mines down on the vet paperwork as Valentine's because it was September and they said she was probably about 8 months old.

  • Therapy

    Jump

  • I've had a couple of people ask how I stomach what I do for a living (acute inpatient psychiatry) and one of my answers to one of the aspects is that a lot of this was going to happen to them anyway and they may as well have at least one person there who's been there and won't be a asshole about it (or any more than I have to be anyway). Also everybody's a mental health advocate who wants the poor sweet depressed babies to be loved more until they're at a stoplight and a homeless schizophrenic on PCP starts wiping period blood on their car while yelling about how Obama filled their vagina with spiders. Some of us didn't get the cute mental illnesses OK.
