I’m genuinely surprised how much I love nursing. Every shift, I get to meet and help so many people. I’m float pool so I go to the whole hospital, but I’ve also been floating for a while so everywhere is familiar. Sometimes it’s hard for me to walk through the hospital because I know so many people I pass, and we keep stopping to chat. I float to seventeen different units. That’s crazy! I know so much about the hospital! Every night I’m somewhere else, working with a different team and a different group of patients. The constant novelty and familiarity of floating is delicious.

And I love my patients! I know this all sounds so goody two shoes, but I love that I get to help so many people in so many ways. I only get them for one night, so I try to give them my best. I love tucking people in with warm blankets, I love explaining what I’m assessing to a patient with a new diagnosis, I love having heart to hearts with patients at three am when they can’t sleep, I love making people hurt less and stop throwing up. And you can be a real scamp about it. I love stealing snacks from other floors. I love when a patient is like “god I’d love some chocolate” and I get to be like “sir I know the location of every candy drawer in the hospital, I can get you some chocolate.” Or like figuring out like a cheat code for alleviating symptoms. When someone’s like “wow this heating pack rules” and then falls asleep instantly? It feels good and it’s fun. I have a lot of fun figuring out how to cheer up my patients in minor little stupid ways.

I never have to wonder if my job contributes value to the world. When I go home at the end of my shift, I can always think of something I did that makes me feel proud. That rules! It’s so fun to be proud of yourself! It’s so fun to know that what you do matters and that you are doing it well. And if I don’t feel proud, I have a drive home to think about why and I get a chance to do better next shift. And that’s good too. There are nights where I can feel the way I let someone down, and I have to sit with that, and I have to learn from it.

(And I don’t want to sound like I’m crushing it always super-nurse style, like I’m completely immune to ableism and the other -isms, or that I’m never lazy or callous or checked out. I’m new and I’m learning and I’m human and I’m tired and I’m not always living up to the person I hope to be. But I do get a lot of opportunities to make up for it and try again. That feels good.)

And I love teaching new nurses! I love having to constantly keep studying so I can be in a position to teach anyone anything. I love watching people get better at stuff. And I love that as I’ve gotten more confident as a nurse and a person who trains new nurses that I’ve started coaching more and more on the soft skills of nurses. Those are really hard! We should get as much practice with therapeutic communication as we do with Foley catheters!

Also where I work pays good, and I’ve got great job security, dude, I can buy so many stupid little trinkets. I was so nervous when I decided to go to nursing school that I was fucking up my life and other people’s plans for a job I wouldn’t even end up liking. I’d literally never worked something remotely close to healthcare when I decided to go to nursing school. I’d been in a hospital like once. I feel like this big life change shouldn’t have worked out nearly as well as it has, but hey it’s really fuckin cool it did

Bruce: Do you need help on your science project?

Little fourteen year old Jason Todd stands in across from Bruce and crosses his arms in offense: No, I don't need help.

Bruce: Are you sure?

Jason, whose voice hasn't gone through puberty yet: Yes! Because I'm a man now!

(he's got a singular hair on his chin that he's was very proud of discovering)

Bruce in his head: Don't laugh, don't laugh, don't laugh.

Bruce: I can still help you though. As an adult, it's considered more mature to ask for help when you need it.

Little Jason uncrosses his arms with only a little skepticism: Oh. Okay. Then man to man, can you help me test which of these moisturizers is the least shitty?

Bruce: Always.

In my perpetual spread of Let Trapper Bottom propaganda, I keep waking up more and more to top-leaning switch Hawkeye and I believe that we should celebrate him more often.

xiao-yu continues to be a little baby found in the cabbage patch in the emperor au? Though if he's only 6 months old, he's going to need more care and support than 2 year old tmaaf-verse xiao-yu.

Someone: Your highness, what about your royal duties?

Wei Wuxian, cuddling baby Xiao-Yu: Give them all to Xichen-jie. I'm busy taking care of this cabbage.

Nurses love complaining about the job they spent a lot of money on schooling to get + then abuse their patients and excuse it by saying they’re overworked and burnt out and they can’t perform emotional labor. Girl you wanted this job? You specifically went to NURSING SCHOOL for this job? Take care of your patients or I’ll turn you into a plastic bag full of pond scum

The problem w reblogging posts critical about the use of AI is that there'll always be additions/the replies with be full of people being extremely reactionary about it. Like, critizing AI does not mean I believe in "the soul of the art" or some other "neoluddist" shit or whatever.......

He left the bedroom, plastic stethoscope in hand, and walked back into the sitting room. Sloan lifted his brows, but his jaw fell.

"I'm going to get arrested for public indecency," Jackson said flatly. "I can't leave like this."

o love! von elwinka Über Flickr: 'Mother’s milk is, I think, a symbol of compassion. Without mother’s milk, we cannot survive, so our first act as a baby together with our mother is sucking milk from our mother, with a feeling of great closeness. At that time, we may not know how to express what love is, what compassion is, but there is a strong feeling of closeness. From the mother’s side also, if there is no strong feeling of closeness toward the baby, her milk may not flow readily. So, mother’s milk is, I think, a symbol of compassion and human affection.' [The Dalai Lama] ________________________ 

Muttermilch O Ursprung aller Wesenheit! O stiller Quell, o sanfte Flut! Gefäß der Stärke, süß und weiß. Im Strom des Herzens, warm und rein. Die erste Gabe, hold und tief. Das Leben erhaltend, reich und stark. Nicht Feuer noch Glut schaffte den Helden, es die die Milch der Wölfin, die er trank. O Liebe, die die Brust bewegt! In erster Geborgenheit der Mut ensteht. Ein Band, der Sicherheit und Wurzeln gibt, bevor das Vöglein in die Weite fliegt. [Elvin K. Gökce, Oktober 2024]
