I have missed it here so much. Image
Did I cry when they played “Say Something”?

No. Barely.
I’m not even mad that the only Dua Lipa they’ve played is “We’re Good.”
And then I died of joy.
I can’t even begin to describe how desperately I needed this.

Since a couple of people have asked, here is my general approach:

1) making it clear from the start that I am not trying to change their mind or make them feel pressured, but to hear what their concerns are so they might feel comfortable considering for the future
2) addressing specific concerns (vaccine seems so new, can’t miss work for side effects, concerns about misinfo they’ve heard, etc) respectfully

3) making a point of saying their own health is important to me, not just because they happen to be a patient’s parent
4) telling them that providing this information is an important part of my job, and that I’m glad to spend as much time as they need to discuss everything that makes them worried about getting vaccinated

This is absolutely a real medical problem, which I learned about from the book of medical information I read for a class in my school where I learned medicine, and the medicine teacher 100% taught me about when uteruses just get rejected like that.
Those of you with testicles are advised to hold onto them firmly for 72 hours after each dose of Covid vaccine, to lower the risk they will explode spontaneously.
You can always tell the rejected uteruses at TJ Maxx, because the tag has been snipped.

A few weeks ago, I started asking my BIPOC patients and parents if they've been affected by racism, or if there were racism-related health problems I need to be providing care for. It's not something I was ever trained to do, and I regret it took me this long to start.
I start by acknowledging that the question might feel awkward, but that I'd rather ask an important question awkwardly than not at all. Similarly to when I started asking about gender identity as a matter of routine, the more I ask the less awkward it feels.
Every single time thus far, my BIPOC patients have been surprised that I've asked, because nobody has ever asked before, but told me how glad they are that I did. Again, I deeply regret it has taken me this long.

I love this badass entrance
I will never ever ever be 1/10th as spectacular as Regina King. I am breathless.
I am already loving the realness this show is bringing.

Hey, just want to make clear to its viewers that Fox News doesn’t give a shit if you die!

Have a lovely weekend.
Oh, and all those soulless fuckwads telling you to question the vaccine? They’d shove an old lady into traffic if it meant they’d get one sooner. Believe.
I have precisely zero fucks to give any longer.

Should have read @CiaoSamin’s buttermilk turkey recipe earlier, since we’re cooking it tomorrow and turns out she recommends brining for 48 hours. Oops! Hope it turns out ok anyway with just 24?
Anyway, added herbs like we did once to wonderful effect with the chicken version of this recipe. And spatchcocked a turkey for the first time!
In it goes!
