Pro Status Quo

“I beat it out of me.” Josh Brolin had a brutal 9mm slipped disc. Doctors told him to rest and consider surgery. Instead, he did the opposite, kept working out, running, and doing pistol squats even when it got worse. Then one day… it was just gone. Never came back. Movement is everything, he says. We’re so quick to default to rest and meds when something hurts, but sometimes the body needs to be pushed through the pain to heal. Real recovery isn’t always comfortable or conventional. Sometimes you have to move toward the discomfort instead of away from it.

@WiggerNobility @TheBrancaShow @grok That’s not what this genius wrote

@TheBrancaShow @grok You're misnterpreting it. He means out of 100 doctors, 2.6 are black, not that 2.6 of black men are doctors.

"I now join the 2.6% of Black men who are physicians." Are 2.6% of Black men physicians? This seems unlikely. Is this guy correct, or is this another retarded black "physician"? Hey, @Grok, are 2.6% of Black men physicians?

@TheBrancaShow @grok Yeah he’s retarded.

@WSJ “Employers” are clamoring for them because they’re idiots and don’t help and employers love customers. No patient with a brain is clamoring for Becky RN CCRN PB&J with 50 hours of shadowing.

Employers are clamoring for workers who can do doctor-like work but who are trained faster and can cost them less. on.wsj.com/4wMBXbr

@SalaryDr Literally everything you post is wrong. Incredibly. It’s a gift.

📊 salaryDr data.. 12 orthopedic surgery attending submissions: Lowest total comp: $377,005 Highest: $3,500,000 Average: $1,040,000 ~9x spread inside one specialty. Specialty narrows your range. Contract + ownership + geography decide where you land in it.

@SalaryDr The shit you post. No Fm has “5/5” job satisfaction. You’re a fraud.

This Family Medicine physician in Massachusetts made $460,000 last year. $250,000 base $210,000 bonus 36-hour workweek 4 weeks PTO 5/5 job satisfaction 5/5 work-life Large health system. 16 years in. The "family medicine doesn't pay" narrative needs an update. Would you take this deal?

@USCitizenAwake Good article

Does anyone have a single legit argument against segregation at this point?

Liftoff of Starship V3, from the dunes right outside the pad. This is the most insane shockwave action I have ever seen on video. Absolutely mad. 📽️ Me for @WeAreSpaceScout

@drterrysimpson Tell us their mcat scores simp

And here is the part the internet meritocrats keep avoiding: Black students make up roughly 10% of Yale’s medical student body while Black Americans are about 13–14% of the U.S. population. Asian students make up roughly 25–30% of Yale’s medical student body while Asians are about 6–7% of the U.S. population. And I don't like the term Asian because it can mean anyone from a large continent - but here we are. So the fantasy that Yale is some anti-Asian machine collapsing under “Black favoritism” is simply not supported by the actual demographics. What Yale — and essentially every medical school in America — actually does is this: highly qualified applicants clear an academic threshold through GPA and MCAT, then admissions committees evaluate the rest of the human being. Interviews. Letters of recommendation. Research. Leadership. Communication. Service. Maturity. Judgment. Resilience. In other words: exactly what every serious profession in America does when hiring people for consequential jobs. The strange cult online is not medicine. It is the belief that a standardized test score alone should settle the full question of human potential. Which isn't what is done for any other job in the US. If you have a new graduate who was at the top of the class and you were an investment banker, or a law firm you would interview that person. Sometimes they do great, and sometimes you realize that person will not fit into the culture of your business. So, no, I didn't use anecdotes. YUnless you call decades of training surgeons, evaluating residents, serving on admissions committees, watching physicians succeed or fail under pressure, and seeing who patients actually trust and follow probably does create some bias. It is called experience. The amusing part is that the people mocking clinical experience are simultaneously insisting that a few additional questions correct on a standardized exam reveal the full architecture of human competence.

He then raped her corpse against a tree. This is the type of pure evil monster that cannot be fixed. Execute them publicly.

Bitcoin won’t bull run again until Saylor goes bankrupt. It’s also now 15-yr old legacy tech and getting more legacy by the second.

@Barchart What now?

BREAKING 🚨: Bitcoin bitcoin:native Timberrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr 📉📉📉

Based! This is the only way.

@realdocspeaks Yeah totally true. I’ve seen it. Hahah

All CT surgeons work 40 hours a week and are never in the ICU at night or on weekends!

@CoffeeBlackMD It is liver cirrhosis though. Cirrhosis isn’t exclusively a liver disease. It’s fibrosis on pathology. you just disappointed me.

Some of y’all putting “liver cirrhosis” in your notes and it’s leaving me disappointed and unconfident in your ability to handle serious stuff.

@RadRadDoc @SalaryDr They aren’t. It’s bullshit.

@SalaryDr How is a CT surgeon working only 40 hrs a week? 😳
