    Too Fat To Be A Nurse?

    nursel56 replied to Newprospnp's topic in General Nursing

    Hello and welcome, newprospnp! I think feeling your best while taking on a new challenge is the top priority. Losing the amount you think is reasonable before the program starts sounds like a...

    allnurses' Holiday Reruns

    nursel56 replied to Davey Do's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks, Davey! Seeing these again is a nice break from the materialistic frenzy that the Holidays have become. (maybe I've seen one too many luxury car with giant bow on top and young lady dripping...

    Wisconsin Nurse Amputated Man's Foot Without Orders

    nursel56 replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Nursing News

    There is an apparently endless amount of weirdness about this story. I really can't process why the charge nurse would counsel Ms Brown about her scope of practice while she and her colleagues seem...

    President Biden thread

    nursel56 replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Not only that, but the relationship between the former president and Fox news was actually symbiotic. Not only were they at his beck and call whenever, wherever and for how long he chose to ramble...

    My Home Health Patient Died

    nursel56 replied to Avill's topic in General Nursing

    I'm sorry for your loss, Avill. When I had a longtime private duty patient pass away suddenly, I noticed my grief reaction was more powerful than I expected-- even though we both knew she had very...

    Wisconsin Nurse Amputated Man's Foot Without Orders

    nursel56 replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Nursing News

    Never personally encountered a situation like this, but here is just one of those things that make me say "huh?". From the article: "His right foot remained attached to his leg by a tendon and...

    Signs of Toxic/Unhealthy Workplaces

    nursel56 replied to Nurse Beth's topic in Nursing Career

    Great article, Nurse Beth. Having experienced it myself, I would just add that I spent months in an agonizing "is it me?" back and forth. I wish I had trusted my instincts

    President Biden thread

    nursel56 replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    It's pretty disappointing to see this, Beerman. Despite your admission that you could be wrong. Maybe it's fair game, as my comment about you diminishing yourself was unduly personal in retrospect....

    President Biden thread

    nursel56 replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    This isn't the first time you've accused somebody of lying here on allnurses. I wonder why that would seem like a probability to you. To answer your question, yeah I sure did! Anyone familiar...

    President Biden thread

    nursel56 replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I guess you recognized yourself in my post to tmb? OK. You regularly link Biden's outward behavior as some type of proof that he has dementia. I've taken care of a number of people who's bodies were...

    President Biden thread

    nursel56 replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I'm surprised anyone, especially working in healthcare-- would conclude a person's thinking process matches their outward demeanor. It might, but whatever is going on there will never be as dangerous...

    President Biden thread

    nursel56 replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I have a hard time believing a real human being writes these useless interjections. It's not just that they're boring, it's that the obvious is that they aren't reading posts and getting to know a...

    January 6 Select Committee

    nursel56 replied to nursej22's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Oh, I thought she said the story was told to her involved Trump lunging forward and trying to grab the steering wheel. Funny how little details that matter not at all in the big picture get fuzzier...

    January 6 Select Committee

    nursel56 replied to nursej22's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Personally, I hope he does run for president. It's a lot harder to cry rigged after a Biden landslide than it is about a few close battleground states. Also, there has never been a coalition...

    January 6 Select Committee

    nursel56 replied to nursej22's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I'm really looking forward to that. It still astonishes me to think that if it were not for a handful of lawyers actively intervening, Jeffrey Clark would've been Attorney General and most likely...

    The Trump Thread

    nursel56 replied to Tweety's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    They do, but I think there is a disconnect between Republicans most often quoted and the party as a whole. I identified as a centrist Republican years ago when I lived in one of the most liberal...

    Does being addressed as "Nurse" annoy anyone?

    nursel56 replied to DoubleblessedRN's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with everyone else strictly on an intellectual basis regarding their reasons for being fine with being addressed that way, but honestly for some reason it does annoy me, although if I hear it...

    The Trump Thread

    nursel56 replied to Tweety's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Great thread idea, Tweety. I honestly believed Trump would head off to some semblance of post-presidential obscurity. Work on his library, get paid 5 figures a pop for speeches, the usual stuff we...

    FBI Raid of the Traitor's Country Club!

    nursel56 replied to SummerGarden's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    They'll probably never know with certainty. The grifters have had too much lead time, but I can imagine they're pretty surprised the National Archives are so tenacious. Probably thought ha ha, a bunch...

    FBI Raid of the Traitor's Country Club!

    nursel56 replied to SummerGarden's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    What were you expecting to see that you didn't see? He took stuff that didn't belong to him and then lied about it. That much is perfectly clear. How do you know those blacked out sections were...

    FBI Raid of the Traitor's Country Club!

    nursel56 replied to SummerGarden's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Out of curiosity, white type of information did you and others expect to see that they didn't see? I suppose the blacked out sections refer to the names of people who provided the specific...

    FBI Raid of the Traitor's Country Club!

    nursel56 replied to SummerGarden's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Calling preferred pronouns a ridiculous fad is kind of like saying sexual orientation is a "lifestyle choice". Or why some people (not saying you) are enraged when somebody else wears a mask. In...

    FBI Raid of the Traitor's Country Club!

    nursel56 replied to SummerGarden's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    His typical, cynical effort to keep himself in the news. You'd think at some point even his media lap dogs would get tired of being manipulated. I'm thinking it might be easier to tolerate if it...

    FBI Raid of the Traitor's Country Club!

    nursel56 replied to SummerGarden's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Yeah, I worry that we'll continue to see dwindling numbers of librarians, but by the same token it's highly unlikely we'll ever see "survey says......PEDOPHILE!" followed by hysterical jumping and...
