Just a reminder that most patients don’t fake being sick. Many patients fake being well. And if a patient really is faking to be sick, something is very wrong and they still need help.

Teaching accessible hybrid courses is hard. So much harder than I expected. I don't really care to have discussions about how it drains me. I want discussions about how my uni can support me AND my colleagues to normalize this labor. 1/4

Pain can also occur from adhesions (internal scar tissue) binding internal organs to each other, causing organ dislocation.

.@JortsTheCat is beloved by all, but I wrote about how I was struck by how his skills are perfectly suited to his job and his workplace put in actually useful adaptations for him. If only the rest of our employers were so adaptable (minus the margarine)! graniteandsunlight.wordpress.com/2021/12/16/jea…

Not so much 'torn apart.' More like 'united in amused disdain' at the unmitigated hubris of two dudes who thought they could extract millions of dollars a year from a community they know nothing about and have no respect for. Pretty sure we're watching with popcorn ready...
