The Enduring Wisdom of Rod Serling: Choosing Love Over Prejudice

In 1960, Rod Serling’s iconic television show The Twilight Zone aired an episode titled “The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street.” One of its most memorable lines resonates powerfully today: “For the record, prejudices can kill, and suspicion can destroy, and a thoughtless frightened search for a scapegoat has a fallout all of its own for the children, and the children yet unborn. And the pity of…

Healthcare Standards: Striving for Excellence in Patient Care

In today's rapidly evolving healthcare landscape, healthcare standards play a pivotal role in ensuring the delivery of high-quality and patient-centered care. As healthcare providers strive for excellence, it is imperative to not only adhere to existing standards but also anticipate future trends and embrace global best practices. Let's explore how accreditation insights, diverse care standards, and inclusive practices contribute to the enhancement of healthcare standards.

Future Trends in healthcare are constantly shaping the way patient care is delivered. From the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and telemedicine to advancements in precision medicine, staying abreast of these future trends is crucial for maintaining relevance and effectiveness in healthcare delivery.

Inclusive practices are essential for ensuring that healthcare services are accessible to all individuals, regardless of their background or circumstances. By adopting inclusive practices, healthcare providers can address disparities in care and promote health equity among diverse patient populations.

Global best practices serve as a benchmark for excellence in healthcare delivery. By studying and implementing global best practices, healthcare organizations can benchmark their performance against international standards, driving continuous improvement and innovation.

Accreditation insights provide valuable guidance on meeting and exceeding healthcare standards. Whether pursuing accreditation from organizations such as the Joint Commission or the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA), leveraging accreditation insights can streamline processes and enhance the overall quality of care.

Diverse care standards recognize that healthcare is not one-size-fits-all. Different patient populations have unique needs and preferences, necessitating the adoption of diverse care standards to ensure that care is tailored to individual requirements.

In conclusion, achieving excellence in patient care requires a commitment to upholding healthcare standards while embracing future trends, inclusive practices, global best practices, accreditation insights, and diverse care standards. By integrating these elements into everyday practice, healthcare providers can truly strive for excellence in patient care.

Genuinely part of me thinks ao3 should install the 4 character max limit that fanfic dot net has because I should not have to scroll through 50 fics about men in order to get to a Cass fic in her own tag. If she's a side character with two lines then don't fucking tag her! She is not a main character in your Jason Todd Tim drake Danny Phantom spiderman fic and we both know she's not going to be relevant enough to earn that character tag so just don't add it! Let Cass fans who want to read Cass be able to find actual fics about her my god.

While I understand the goal with gender-inclusive/'gender expansive'/unisex adult clothing patterns, I kinda hate them. Like. That's just now how human bodies are. One-size-fits all just doesn't!

A garment that is designed to fit well on a body without breasts will, by definition, fit like shit on me, no matter how boxy/oversized the style lines are! A garment designed to fit someone with by body (or the closest common approximation of my body, with like 3" less breast full bust circumference) will, by its very nature, fit very badly on someone flat-chested. See also, shit like shoulder width, and waist/hip raios, and I'm sure various other aspects.

Like, I get that there's a lot of baggage surrounding body shape and social expectations of gender! But you can't get around that baggage by pretending that various physical differences just don't exist!

If I want to dress more masc, the shape of my body does not change. The fit adjustments that I need to make don't change. I would in fact need to make additional tweaks and adjustments to get a traditionally masculine silhouette. And while it would be interesting and valuable to have guidelines on how to do that, unisex pattern designs move the whole process back in the opposite direction.

I've been thinking a lot about TNG's The Measure of a Man today, and how those kinds of episodes where they debate what it means to be a person are so important. The themes and arguments in the episode have been used throughout history to justify treating people as less than, and showing how the arguments can work in favor of existing injustice helps people recognize it when it's happening on a smaller scale: in the classroom, in the workplace, on the street, in everyday interactions. I think it's very important so that we can recognize the tactics that are being used against people and how easily the wrong narrative can take hold. We can debate philosophy forever, but if we're not still engaging in the moral conversations and implications of those philosophical ideas, then it's all for naught. If we can't engage with our own history of slavery, oppression, and injustice in a meaningful way, then the structures are upheld and the discrimination continues, with historical groups and new ones that emerge. What does it mean to be a person? How far do you go to stand up for another's personhood when push comes to shove and your ass is on the line?

Looking through a similar lens in Voyager's Distant Origin, what happens to the dissenting voices? The ones who stand up against history and doctrine, saying this isn't right and this isn't how it happened? Are they silenced by coercion or other means? Do they stand up for what is correct in the face of personal ruin? It's an especially important consideration in cultures that tend to be more individualistic than collectivist, as the US is. Do you sit and do as you're told, whatever it takes not to stand out among the crowd? Do you do the work to recognize the powers that are in play and structures that have existed since before your lifetime?

There are so many instances in the episodes where they debate morality -- they explore ideas relating to privilege and opportunity, systems of oppression and what it means to do the right thing. Even in an idealistic future, doing the right thing is difficult. Refusing to engage with the conversation and continue exploring those harder truths that fight with our social conditioning is an issue.

I just really appreciate that they were willing to explore those moral arguments, even if they basically end up being conference room episodes. Science fiction really lends itself well to those kinds of stories and can help start shifting paradigms of thinking. These stories can provide the impetus to thought then to action -- right now, right now, right now

My brain can't handle random prompts; if I don't give it a theme, it turns Inktober into a story (successfully with Mousie & Chicken, biting off more than I could chew with the magical arctic adventure).

But this year the 'official' prompts themselves have a very obvious theme.

Suddenly my desire to make a narrative has completely evaporated. Not sure if this is innate rebellion or if I need more challenge or what, but I have absolutely zero desire to make pictures that tell a little story once it's obvious what kind of little story I'm supposed to tell.
