Adjusts glasses.

"It don't go like that."

With every fiber of my body, fuck that ortho surgeon.

LockeProposal

10/10 delivery.

Grandma's Boy. Couldn't tell you why. I'm not normally a fan of dumb comedy like that, but there's something about this one that I just can't get enough of. It will warm me up on a cold day.

LockeProposal

Hope she's in fucking JAIL.

"My neck hurts looking at this."

I'm picturing Arnold Schwarzenegger at the end of Total Recall.

LOVE my monster of a main PC, but if this was a "take one item to a deserted island" type situation, hard to beat the Steam Deck. It's just such a great little device.

LockeProposal

I feel this. I make so much money on paper, but my account is always disappointing.

LockeProposal

This is the real question.

Impressive Cock DLC when?

Took over from another nurse because the son was really intense and unrealistic and would get very upset if you didn't tell him what he wanted to hear.

Patient was over 100 years old, all skin and bones, completed demented (mumbling to herself, not responsive to prompts, etc), totally contracted all four limbs, and in the fetal position. Massive pressure wound, stage 3 or 4 (I think it was 3).

Son: "Thank God we have someone new. That other nurse was an idiot, wouldn't even try. So, I want PT, OT, SPEECH, everything and the kitchen sink. In two weeks, I want her cooking for herself, driving herself, and having fucking conversations."

She was full code, too. This one got escalated to supervisors and risk management, etc. She died in front of him a week later during a dressing change (with another clinician, I wasn't there). I heard it was a bad code, son didn't handle it well.

I love wound vacs for similar reasons: adult arts and crafts.

LockeProposal

Im way overdue to rewatch A Bittersweet Life.

LockeProposal

Sounds like you have some impaired energy fields, there, champ.

LockeProposal

Maybe a hot take: I like prepping each med separately with flushes in between. I feel like a scientist.

LockeProposal

Thanks!

LockeProposal

Love it.

Can I ask about what monitor that is, or at least the screen size?

LockeProposal

My biggest fuck-up is probably the time I forgot to put a base drape around the periwound before applying a wound vac once, years ago. I felt like the dumbest person on Earth and still kick myself over it years later.

LockeProposal

It's such a dumb concept. Most that I've had were genuinely nice, though. I understand how lucky that maes me.

LockeProposal

Jack's frozen pizza, pepperoni.

Don't work at the hospital anymore, but that was my go-to.

LockeProposal

Hard agree.

LockeProposal

Good fucking lord.

Fuck my story, it's not going to win here.

LockeProposal

Yes

LockeProposal

Even more shocking, it releases.

LockeProposal

Improvement.
