The atheism leaving my body the moment the Pope starts talking about how AI is an affront to God and the new Tower of Babel

Junior Clinical Fellow job at my hospital - Essential criteria: At least 6m post FY - Salary: £35,405, a whole £200/yr less than a brand new FY1 Absolutely outrageous exploitation of doctors who are struggling to get into training and have mortgages to pay @BMA_NI

Dr Elaine is the UK’s first deaf/blind doctor. She is under multiple specialists in London. She is on 24 hour LTOT. Her request to be pre-allocated to London was declined and was allocated Dorset. This is a catastrophic failure by the @UKFPO, who simply isn’t hated enough.

Argo, but it's smuggling Big John out of the Chinese restaurant in Dubai.

Of course that's your contention. You're a first-time biohacker. You just got finished listening to some podcast, Huberman on Rogan, probably. Now you think it’s the end of chronic disease and seed oils are the devil. You're gonna be convinced of that til tomorrow when you get to “The Glucose Goddess Method”. Then you’ll strap on an Oura Ring, track your HRV on a Whoop app, and say we’re all just a couple sauna sessions away from living to 120. That’s gonna last until next week when you discover NAD boosters, and then you're gonna be talking about how mitochondria are the key to everything and reposting Levels marketing graphics. “Well, as a matter of fact, I won't, because ultimately the health tech stack is just ….” The health tech stack is just quantified self on top of a fitness tracker. You got that from Peter Attia’s episode on Tim Ferriss, March 2025, right? Yeah, I heard that too. Were you gonna plagiarize the whole thing for us? Do you have any thoughts of your own on this matter? Or...is that your thing? You get into the replies of anyone posting a longevity ticker. You listen to some podcast and then pawn it off as your own idea just to impress some VCs and embarrass some anon who’s long on biotech? See the sad thing about a guy like you is in a couple years you're gonna start doing some thinking on your own and you're gonna come up with the fact that there are two certainties in life. One: don't do that. And two: you dropped thirty grand on peptides and supplement stacks to come to the same conclusion you could’ve got for free by reading primary sources on PubMed.

You guys are paying for prescriptions?

The BBC Scotland commentary for Kenny McLean’s halfway line goal is glorious. Stuff of dreams. 🔥

Spending the night in a remote Scottish hotel and it's started snowing heavily. Getting trapped here in a snowstorm would be the start of a Benoit Blanc-esque murder mystery

I too am not burnt out - just doctor lounge deficient

At what point post-pandemic does being unable to share powerpoint slides on Teams become sheer incompetence?

I'm ready to get hurt again

Deeply hilarious to have factionalism in a political party that a) doesn't actually exist yet b) contains 6 people Generational fumble this

If I'm not Scottish how come I can rhyme in Scots? Laurence Fox, a bawheid radge, Racist blether, deidbeat dad. Failed at actin, daein it bad, Now he’s jist a daft wee lad
