Insufferable but correct 😌 Views and opinions are my own and do not represent my institution. nothing I say is medical advice. she/her.

Oh nothing, just thinking about how my patient directed all of their questions to the 22-year-old male pre-med who was shadowing me despite introducing myself as the doctor, with a badge that says doctor, in a doctor outfit at the doctor factory

Stop judging people who have sex for money while you’re busy having sex for good morning texts and lies.

I officially went unmatched post-SOAP. I’ll be reaching out to programs with unfilled spots starting tomorrow. Already did a urology research year. Looking for prelim surgery positions if available. Any and all help is appreciated! #SOAP2026 #eras2026

Have you ever had a panic attack about whether you’re going to end up somewhere you don’t want to be for residency while on an airplane that’s way too hot while surrounded by babies

@lastsigfig Not necessarily? And I’m just trying to give you some advice from my lived experience, bro. It’s fine to be really into medicine, good even, I think we all are or else we would have given up… but don’t let it be your everything

@drrdemon Wouldn’t a brain injury affect someone similarly even if they had many passions and those passions happened to be intellectually demanding? Med students are always optimizing for residency apps. It’s a rat race. There is no mind reading to tell the liars apart.

I get why this take is popular, but I do think it is also okay to drown yourself in medicine. It's a profession where your borderline autistic level of hyper interest can actually move the needle for people. What you do matters and searching for ways to improve on it is cool.
Empress 🖤@drrdemon

One of the most important things for people in medicine is to retain interests outside of it. Have hobbies. Read books that aren’t just medicine. Don’t make it your entire life. CULTIVATE AND MAINTAIN YOUR WHIMSY

@lastsigfig Unless it’s a brain injury 💀 but anyway, I can also tell you that I was asked in every single residency interview what my hobbies outside of medicine are, so if anything, that’s a good reason to not make it 100% of what you think about lol

@drrdemon Recovery from a sudden loss of ability has more to do one's support system and resources than the specific passion that they can't practice. Life is what we make of it. It's too short to be worried about putting all your eggs in one basket. You can make new eggs.

As we approach the end of the SOAP process, I want to give a little encouragement. Please remember that this is not a reflection of who you are. Many wonderful students go unmatched each year for reasons unknown. Your dreams may be delayed, yet they are not denied. #match2026

@lastsigfig I wouldn’t want that for myself, my colleagues, anyone… maintaining other interests may save your life some day

@lastsigfig My parent was a doctor and it was their whole life and personality until a terrible medical event happened and they could no longer practice, at the peak of their career. I watched them become a shell of a person and spiral so deep into depression because they had nothing left 🤷🏻‍♀️

Students who took notes by hand scored ~28% higher on conceptual questions than laptop note-takers. Writing forces your brain to process and compress ideas instead of copying them.

Unpaid “research positions” in medicine need to end. Asking IMGs to work 1–2 years for free just to stay competitive isn’t opportunity—it’s exploitation. No US grad would accept this, and neither should we. Our work has value. #EndUnpaidLabor #IMGs
