Ben Carson was a world class brain surgeon Plenty of doctors are also dumb as poo poo inside of medicine, too! My brother is a doctor and he really hates universal healthcare and blames minorities/black people for the huge disparities of health outcomes between US and other countries with national healthcare. He thinks America has the #1 best healthcare regardless of whatever stats I show him regarding patient outcome. He went to med school in Chicago and would constantly bring up, "black on black violence" and how black people need to be more responsible, but he couldn't be racist because he knows black people/treated black people. I don't talk to him about medicine or politics any more.

My mother-in-law is a nurse and says "But who's gonna pay for it?" every time UHC comes upKnight posted:There's a significant portion of women home-schooled in a fundamentalist environment who turn to nursing programs and med school because it's one of the only professions that is viewed as valid for women to take outside of the home. As long as your family/community doesn't go so far as to claim that all medicine is heresy to the faithful, they're seen as doing good in the world as healers and safely working in positions under male authority (maybe a future husband?). And if doesn't hurt to feel superior to dirty heathens and fetishize their pain while you're doing it.

The twins he first operated on ended up becoming developmentally disabled, and his attempt at separating conjoined adult twins ended in their deaths. https://www.bostonglobe.com/news/po...YLDO/story.html quote:In a 1988 Bunte magazine story, Carson predicted that one of the twins would be crawling soon, while the other would need to overcome the effects of an event that occurred after the surgery when he nearly suffocated. “Both are more advanced now than we were hoping they would be,” Carson said. quote:Carson again courted controversy in 2003 when he agreed to participate in the separation of the Bijani sisters, 29-year-old Iranian twins. It was the first known attempt to separate adult twins joined at the head.

One More Fat Nerd posted:Arent they also pretty good for their intended purpose, y'know, helping diagnose developmental disabilities? i'm no expert on iq but i'd be careful with even that as a blanket statement without accounting for socioeconomic factors. "race realists" love to say that africans have avg 80 iq or some poo poo, idk if their numbers are completely pulled out of their rear end, but i do know that raw iq scores of populations increase over time and track with poo poo like childhood nutrition. it may predict something but a 3rd world african with an 80 iq probably isn't any more developmentally disabled than an american who scored a 100 iq around 1900 Blister posted:I tested a girl in Texas who tanked a portion of an IQ test because she had left 2 or 3 pages blank because there were questions about a ski slope, with a ski lift and a lodge at the top.

Blister posted:Yep, anything over 90 is generally fine, the most important part of the test is whoever looks over the areas you did poorly and well in. It's not uncommon for someone with learning disabilities to have a high IQ but tank in specific parts. I took an IQ test in the late 90s and one of the questions was to point out what was missing from a picture of a phone. I stared at it for a while and then gave up, looked like a normal phone to me. The tester replied that the cord was missing. I kinda glared at him because cordless phones had been around for years at that point. He gave me a "whaddya gonna do" shrug and moved on.

Eat This Glob posted:greetings. we must be related. that was absolutely the same case for me, down to being 5'11". i think i may be physiologically broken though because i have the same inseam as my 5'3" wife lol no, that’s normal; one of the effects of the hormones you start getting at puberty is that testosterone makes the male torso taller and broader across the shoulders; cisgender women get shorter torsos and longer legs/wider hips relative to their height than cisgender men do. My wife is several inches taller than me, but when we sit, our heads are the same height thanks to all my height being in my torso. Her inseam is like 6” longer than mine tho. The only woman I ever dated who had an inseam as short as me was literally 5’0”.

Dixie Cretin Seaman posted:last year some financial reporter did a story on how, after a decade of underemployment, management had forgotten how to compete for employees in a tightening labor market. they're simultaneously pissed they can't find enough good workers and indignant at the suggestion that they could offer higher pay. 🙃 This is happening at an weirdly accelerated rate where I live, in an area affected by Hurricane Michael. All the poor black people and trailer trash who used to work low-end service jobs here just left, because so much local housing was actually physically lost that rents are now impossible for anyone to afford on 8-10 bux an hour. Every hotel and apartment complex for 100 miles is occupied by FEMA refugees or oblivious, chudly vacationers, and there's just nowhere for people to go. Those of us who are still able to live and work where I do keep telling management they need to offer higher wages right now, and as they fail and fail to do so it's been really funny watching my coworkers gently caress off en masse to, for example, McD's, which is offering 14/hr in my neighborhood, whilst HR grows increasingly harrassed and hunted-looking and whines about how "these people" just don't want to work. It's taken them about four months, but they're finally listening, and wages are finally rising-- probably because the store manager has had to clean up barf, get shopping carts from the parking lot in the FL sun, and run cash registers herself day-to-day because there's barely anyone left beneath her left to do it. It's been stressful, but oh, these dumb fuckers hath sown the wind, and when I come in to see that my fake as gently caress corporate overlord's had to respond to yet another four-alarm colon explosion in the women's bathroom while I was out, I really do savor the whirlwind.
