so curious what everyones favorite museums are
Museum of Jurassic Technology (Culver City, CA)
Museum of Natural History (New York City) - Childhood favorite. Field trip nostalgia. Still love it.
MusĂŠe d'Orsay (Paris) - Emotional.
Not having terrible takes about China gets sooooo much easier when you drill it into your head that China and the US are two capitalist authoritative systems that are competing for global market domination by any means.
Like, that's all there is to it. The US will say shit about China that's inaccurate and fearmongering, but when we address that misinformation we should acknowledge that China is not some underdog we should be rooting for, it's a massive state that's genuinely terrible in other, accurate ways because it is a capitalist authoritative system.
There are differences, of course. Like the US tries to uphold a vague pretense of democracy and human rights and is a little more restrained about putting minorities in concentration camps (but still doing some of it), while China has been less aggressive about starting wars in other countries and drone bombing countries it claims not to be at war with. But it would be ridiculous to look at that and decide that one of these is a Good Guy. They are states. They are not on our side. Not ever.
China and the US are two capitalist authoritative systems that are competing for global market domination. When the chips come down, both of them would probably work together if they thought it was necessary to keep oppressing the working class, because in terms of class interests they are on the same side. Not our side.

Image transcript of tweet chain on the 16th of September 2020 from Sayed Tabatabai, MD @TheRealDoctorT [Begin transcript: âWhy do you want to be a doctor?â I answer without hesitation, âI want to help people.â âThere are many ways to help people.â âI want to save lives.â âThere are many ways to do that too. So Iâll ask you again, why do you want to be a doctor?â âBecause I believe in itâ 1 of
I think about that exchange now and then, some times more than others. Why do we do the things we do? What do we really believe in? My next clinic patient is one Iâve known for many years. He is visiting me today via Zoom. I always look forward to talking to him. 2 of
As soon as the visit begins, I notice that his camera is angled off-center so I canât get a clear look at his face. I ask if he can adjust it, but he says heâs having technical issues. No problem. I can adapt. It isnât just the camera though. Something feels off today. 3 of
Almost immediately I can tell that he sounds subdued. He isnât cracking his usual jokes. Iâm comfortable with silence, even in the heart of a busy clinic day. Silence is often where the healing happens. After asking how heâs doing, I let the silence between us grow. 4 of
The question, when he asks it, is one I donât expect. âDoc, which kills you faster? Blood pressure you donât control, or blood sugar you donât control?â The surprise on my face must register, because he explains further. âI just canât afford all these medications anymore.â 5 of
He continues. âThe way I see it, doc, I only need to stick around 4 or 5 more years. Thatâs how long my pet dog has left, then I ainât got no more family and itâs me all on my own. So I figure maybe take the diabetes ones and skip the blood pressure? Or every other day?â 6 of
As I review his meds and start discussing our options with him, he adds one last remark. âAnd Iâm real sorry doc. I know we go back a ways, but I canât afford my co-pay. Iâll pay you later. Promise.â And just like that, I understand why his camera is angled. 7 of
And just like that, Iâm again struck by the cruel illusion of what I do. The system Iâm part of. This patient did everything right; got insurance, paid his taxes. And he still has to barter years of his life. And he canât bring himself to look me in the eyes as he does so. 8 of
Our healthcare system is too often unethical, immoral, unsustainable. The insurance paradigm is focused on revenue generation. It strips the basic human dignity from patients, to the point where they canât even make eye contact anymore. I know that Iâm part of this system. 9 of
Heâs old enough to be my father. Some part of me imagines that he is my father. Tears threaten my vision, as a hot anger floods me. Now I wish I could angle my camera away. I ask him if I can write about him. Because people need to know. His response lingers with me. 10 of
âSure you can doc. But people already know. Lots of people deal with this. It ainât that people donât know. Itâs just that nobody cares. Nobody gives enough of a damn to change anything. Nobody⌠cares.â The visit ends. My Zoom window closes. His window closes too. 11 of
I feel it. Thereâs something insidious here. A casual cruelty weâre all complicit in. âI canât go to rehab, insurance wonât cover it.â âInsurance wonât pay for that medication.â âI canât afford any of this.â âIâm uninsured.â This isnât right. None of this is right. 12 of
Twenty years ago, I gave a medical school interview. I wore my best suit. I sat up straight. I said I believed in medicine. I meant it. Some part of me once burned brightly, but that fire is down to flickering embers. Our lives mean more than this. More than this.

âIt started with a joke about pansexuals. Something about defending your kitchen from pansexuals. Then one of my classmates accused me of belittling them. Which turned into a bigger conversation about homophobia and racism. People began sharing their own experiences with discrimination, and honestly, a lot of it seemed overblown. Itâs like: Câmon. You live on the wealthy side of town. What youâre describing sounds like an everyday disagreement between two humans, but youâre bumping it up to discrimination. Thatâs when people started accusing me of discrimination. I pointed out that I was Jewish. But they said my trauma was generational and not first-hand, so it didnât count. All of it just seemed like some sort of competition. A twisted game where the more discrimination you could claim, the more social points you won. It ended up with everyone ganging up on me and calling me racist. And that started me on a journey of watching alt-right videos. It just felt good to hear people say: âItâs not you, itâs them. Those blue haired people, with their thirteen pronouns, they act like theyâre morally superior. But itâs all about power. They want to shame you into silence.â The videos always used the word âthey.â âTheyâ are ruining this country. âTheyâ want to take away your rights. No matter how many types of people were being described, it was always âthey.â It made it easy for me to dismiss discrimination whenever it was claimed, by anyone. Iâd think: âThere they go again.â Iâm out of that phase now. If anything Iâm politically active on the other side. Iâm thankful it happened to me when I was fourteen, and still growing. Because if Iâd been older, working some dead-end job, not meeting people, it would have been harder. Because one thing that really helped me was one-on-one conversations. My more moderate classmates started talking to me again. A few of them even apologized for how it all went down. They didnât speak as a member of a group. It was just: âThis is who I am. This is how I experienced discrimination.â It wasnât hostile. I didnât feel ganged up on. And I was able to hear them. Iâve learned that for a lot of people, itâs not a game. Itâs their lives.â
Never gonna know them, but shoutout to the healthcare workers who are breaking the law to help their patients get life-saving care. I'll never see an article about you because knowing you would risk everything including jail time. Nurses who lie on medical records so their patients can get abortions. Doctors making up shit so their patients can have HRT.
Wherever you are, you are keeping your promise to help your patient.

You gonna shoot this thing or get it pregnant?
not to oversimplify an extremely complex discipline but if i had to pick one tip to give people on how to have more productive interactions with children, especially in an instructive sense, its that teaching a kid well is a lot more like improv than it is like error correction and you should always work on minimizing the amount of âno, wrongâ and maximizing the amount of âyes, and?â for example: we have a species of fish at the aquarium that looks a lot like a tiny pufferfish. children are constantly either asking us if thatâs what they are, or confidently telling us thatâs what they are. if you rush to correct them, you risk completely severing their interest in the situation, because 1. kids donât like to engage with adults who make them feel bad and 2. they were excited because pufferfish are interesting, and you have not given them any reason to be invested in non-pufferfish. Instead, if you say something like âIt looks a LOT like a tiny pufferfish, youâre right. But these guys are even funnier. Wanna know what theyâre called?â you have primed them perfectly for the delightful truth of the Pacific Spiny Lumpsucker
I was in martial arts for years, and in particular I kinda specialized in working with the younger kids.
The two Big Rules when instructing younger students was- 1. Compliment before Critique 2. Donât say âbutâ, say ânowâ
Praise kids on what they get right first, especially if they are struggling. Like OP said, kids donât like to engage with people who make them feel bad. They need encouragement when learning new things.
Number two boils down to this. If you tell a kid a compliment, then say âbut you need to fix thisâ, that âbutâ completely negates your compliment. Itâs gone. It was canceled out like adding a negative to a positive. Using âhey, that punch is looking great, now letâs focus on your stanceâ doesnât verbally cancel out the progress theyâve made. Itâs like theyâve checked off something on their list of stuff to work on.
Wording can absolutely make or break a childâs motivation and interest.
Rebloggling as itâs relevant in a Medical Education context
Honestly I use all of these to teach vet students too. I think people in general respond better to positivity in teaching. Not coddling, but acknowledging when a student got part way to the right answer, or had a good thought process, is something Iâve found keeps students engaged and builds confidence, which encourages them to keep going instead of shutting down and just âgetting throughâ a lab or a rotation

How our admins think:
1. We need to attract students!!
2. What do young people like? WEBSITE STUFF
3. Hire million dollar consultants to change the website for no fucking reason which somehow makes everything broken
4. Fire professors because thereâs just no money
