@EFHutton123 @AniseNot Both my cats (who actually both liked the vet quite a bit) went at home. The first asked to go outside about an hour before the vet was coming, laid on the patio in a rare warmer February day in Chicago. And asked to go in just as the vet was pulling up. He knew. He was ready.

@AniseNot One thing could make it better. Pay the vet to come to you. Dogs fear vet offices. They smell death and the stress of the other animals. That’s how I did it the last time. So much better.

@AniseNot They both went at home with a hospice vet. The vet still sends me cards every once in a while remembering them. If you’re in the Chicago area A Gentle Goodbye was incredible.

@AniseNot I’m coming up on 1 and 2 year anniversaries of my cats. I decided long ago I would rather let them go a day too early than a second too late. I saw so much pain when I was a vet tech. The vet I worked with said this is a kindness we get to give animals. I think about that a lot.

Does anybody know how to do analysis for multilevel latent variable models (or can direct me to some resources)?

@doggtism @EphemeralEther My older two don’t care much about the outside but the new kittens love it so he gets supervised time. He’s leash and car trained along with working on other obedience training. Cats can be trained like dogs and it’s really good for them!

@EphemeralEther No this is great! I let my boy bird watch on our balcony. Supervised outdoor time is ok

@Komaniecki_R My husband asked for my location so he could be outside to unload groceries for me. I have a lot of triggers around being controlled and the fact that I was fine with this showed me how safe our relationship feels. Otherwise I have a knee jerk reaction to anyone asking where I am

I do not know how to explain to some of you how boring, practical, and unthreatening it is to share your location when you fully trust your partner

@RGibsongirl The area I grew up in was heavily Catholic and not particularly religious so I honestly didn't have much interaction with evangelicals until undergrad. It was VERY strange especially seeing all the media like veggie tales and hearing stories about youth groups etc.

@KellyOSheaMPH *nods* Yup. And SO MUCH of the US Christian infrastructure, particularly in the midwest, is various types of Protestant which have gone with the extremely sanitized and very white-focused VBC for kids stuff...I visited a few with various babysitters when I was younger and ugh.

Oh I actually have an answer for this: it's because they're not reading the actual bible story, they're getting it filtered through youth groups/vacation bible school, where it's watered down & white-ified. Closest they get to seeing ppl of color in their stories is Veggie Tales.

i’m not sure how so many american christians can read the good samaritan story and think jesus meant they should care for americans and not immigrants. the point of that story is literally the opposite of that

I never felt closer to my fellow Chicagoans than when a bunch of drunk, obnoxious Cubs fans got on the train at 5pm. We all made silent eye contact as they got off the train at the wrong stop after declaring "everyone on this train must be so annoyed with us bro!! CUBBIEESSSSS."
Alan Fisher@alanthefisher

Its honestly sad that most Americans will never experience the fun of their home team winning a game and riding the train back home with fans (or to an afterparty). Instead they have to drunkenly navigate their way home in a car, alone, stuck in traffic.

@erinrjohnson3 @colleen__may This actually is the problem I have with public health organizations/agencies always hiring MDs for leadership roles. Like they never hire a PhD in Public Health or a DrPH. Because not only do MDs think they are researchers, MDs simply think they’re superior in all things health.

@erinrjohnson3 @colleen__may I had one of my biggest reddit arguments about this. Resident claiming they had as much understanding of research as a PhD bc it was required for them to do some research proj as part of med school. Refused to consider that doing 1 project was not the same as 5+ years of exp

@colleen__may I have a friend who works at a research hospital and we were just bemoaning last week how many MDs think their degree makes them researchers. It does not. Research training is a whoooooole separate thing.

I spent almost all day, everyday writing surveys and dealing with data collection. This is my area. For my consultation fee I will set this up for you but I will absolutely not be spending hours or money on this. I'm sorry.

If they're salty about it I may be petty and include some literature about participant burden and some links to redcap or qualtrics for data collection.

My friend is getting assessed for ADHD (which I also have). Her doctor sent me 3 PDFs of assessments for me to fill out as an outside perspective. They have between 30 and 75 questions. The pdf is not fillable. Literally no thought about participant burden.
