Yeah it comes up in my work too when talking about oncology treatment options. Seems kind of insane to police the inflection of nouns

OwlFancier posted:I mean the existence of the adjective implies the existence of the verb, I'm not sure you can ban the verb shaped hole that exists in the language otherwise. English verbs nouns all the time. But if a specific verbing of a given noun appears to have (re-)entered common use as the result of a colossal fucknozzle using it, I'm going to be concerned to see it spreading. Does that make sense? Picture this: there's a term we're using a lot, like, say, quarantine. A couple of days ago I saw a sequence of tweets from someone whose opinions I would really, really like not to see enter the public consciousness, which uses a form of the word I've not seen before, and which doesn't see common use, say 'quarantising', with the implication that 'quarantising' someone is likely to be done by force, without their consent, and lead to their death because they will be prevented from accessing food and water as a result. WOudl it not seem logical to be a little concerned to see someone talking about quarantising people itt, rather than quarantining them, the much more commonly used and accepted form of the word? That's what's happening. Possibly I'm overreacting. It wouldn't surprise me. But until that's confirmed, I'm still going to be concerned.

Seriously don't be making a kid right now. There will be a spike in 9 months time and you don't want to be having a kid when the spikes are happening, few midwifes to share during the slow season let alone the rush ones. September and November are the worst times my midwife girlfriend says. (Christmas and valentines day being the causes)

Also it's probably still going to be a very bad time to be in hospital generally given that we're not goign to be even close to out of the woods on COVID and we will have just brexited and lost big chunks of the EU staff.

thespaceinvader posted:Jesus gently caress has this word already entered the public consciousness this far or are you the ghoul who spawned it? Would you prefer EOLC, best supportive care, not for escalation, LCP or one of the many other euphemisms/jargons medics have instead? Palliation is term with a very clear meaning. There is no meaningful prospect of recovery and the aim is to maximise patient comfort. It is also diagnosis specific - you can be palliated with regards to an incurable cancer but if you catch an unrelated infection, you will absolutely be treated. Palliative care does a lot more than palliation - they are pain specialists, provide counselling and have a far more realistic outlook on life than most other medical specialties. They aren't flashy and will never make headlines but they have a tremendous impact on the lives of the patients and their families. Edit - After reading a few more of your posts I remember now why doctors constructed an entire parallel vocabulary of medical jargon.

thespaceinvader posted:Palliate was not significantly used as a verb until a few loving days ago. The term typically used in that context would be palliative care, not palliation (c.f. https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?geo=GB&q=palliation,palliative%20care), and the first I've ever seen the term used as a verb was in a tweet shared from some spad type upthread who used it more like a threat (i.e. as a thing to be done to people without their consent or without it necessarily being the right course of action for them, rather than as a sort of care we provide to people for whom there is no other recourse to save them or who have specifically requested not to have active interventions done on them). I've only worked in clinical medicine and research for 15 years but I'm pretty sure "palliation" or palliate or w/e has been used throughout. e:f;b.

"Palliate" has been used within medicine for ages, it's not a new thing. Technically it just means treating symptoms without aiming to cure but it's usually used in a more imminent end of life context.

I kind of don't vibe with the laughing at Ice Phisherman if I'm being honest. Yeah, sometimes he gets a bit zealous/overly expectant of society collapsing, but fundamentally he's trying to help people be ready for if/when things really go off the rails. Like, you know what else he's doing when he's not posting? He's making sure everyone he knows has sufficient medicine in stock in case there's shortages or they can't get out to get them due to virus fears. Including going out of his way to learn about trans medical needs and what kind of stuff we might be lacking, and trying to make sure trans people he knows are secure in that regard. For example, stuff like this; Mulva posted:Oh no, it's prostitution for basic needs. So someone has food, and you need food, and they need their dick sucked, and well that's not rape. It's just capitalism. Is extremely unfair to basically anyone when all they've done is use the term "survival sex", which is certainly a phrase I have heard used plenty and which I would definitely not ascribe anything like this to people who use it. Sorry, didn't log on intending to post about posters/posting but I feel we're being a bit unfair.

It's SA, so people are going o point and laugh at insane guys posting giant walls of text that make them sound like giant weirdos, whether or not they are decent people IRL. I'm not even being like "Heh, you'r elooking for SomethingSensitive.com, sis"  , just... the entire ethos of the forums is teasing people's weird foibles, and if they can't handle that and return it in kind then they probably will get dogpiled.
