Any supporters of the President following his recommendation to self-medicate with hydroxychloroquin? If not, why not?

Oh god ... I think I just had a mini heart attack

Best ways to create a realistic, healthy work environment?

I have some mental issues that affect how I do my work. Is it appropriate to bring them up ever, or is it seen as an excuse?

Can anyone share a policy discussing no longer using high flow oxygen during decels in labor? (due to aerosolization)

I might have to move in March and looking at how these prices currently are, this is crazy 😭
Got to spoiled with the covid prices

Hi folks, anyone interested in creating a healthy sleep/wake schedule? I’m targeting to achieve and maintain a 10pm/5am sleep/wake schedule on the weekdays. I wonder if we can get this started, and check in to support and make it happen!

Has anyone talked to a therapist or professional about being unemployed? At this point I feel like it's making me depressed. Are there other unemployment support groups out there?

I don’t want things to go “back to normal,” and lately I’ve been reading what feels like a lot of disingenuous arguments for reopening “for people’s mental health.” As someone who was suffering from the way things were before and is now thriving from the slowdown (both in work and personal life), I wish we could all stop pretending like we were living in some mental health utopia before the shut down.

I had IVF process to get pregnant. During pre- embryo transfer we were told that girl embryo is being transferred. Currently I am 18 week pregnant. I had anatomy scan and we found out we are having a boy. Baby looked all healthy but due to gender discrepancy, We are asked to do additional testing and genetic disorder screening. Anyone had similar experience?

Had an FET transfer and just got the news that the pregnancy test is negative. Feeling very defeated about it. All my labs are good (AMH 3.1) and the embryos were PGA tested. Have only two left now, and this was the best quality one. The irony is I did feel pregnant couple days after transfer but then I stopped feeling pregnant. I read that some women don’t really “feel” pregnant until 6-7 weeks… but i did “feel” then stopped. It just sucks. If you have any advice for coping, I’d appreciate it.

Looking for good half marathons to run in San Jose. New to the area. All the upcoming races are either hill or trail runs. Are there any road races for a flatter option?

Friendly reminder that depression is a protected disability. File paperwork with your company and they legally cannot destroy your health by overworking you.

TTC for a year, went to RE for a fertility check and SO and I are healthy. Other than the ovulation prediction kits, what can help improve our chances?

Have been on Keto for 3 mo. Just had my cholesterol checked and it‘s >2x what it was 6 mo ago - more than double what’s considered high. Dr very worried and says I need to stop Keto or take meds....

Just completed my last shift in the ICU. I'm glad to be shifting back to the Maternatity ward. It was exhausting, and emotionally draining working with such sick patients. I know the work we did made a big difference, but I'm glad to go back to my favorite role!

In an industry full of smart and driven people, I find it helpful to remind myself that I need to run my own race.

Has anyone here written a book or pursued other avenues of translating their skills and experience into income? Maybe an online course?

No matter how many years I’ve freelanced, I still find it difficult to accurately (and fairly) predict how many hours a project will take in order to bid on it (and bake in revisions). Any tips or tricks out there?

Anyone willing to refer to Abbvie?
Please dm me.

Just had year end discussion. Not at all happy with how it went

Do you guys ever accept project rates? I’ve never really heard of that and I’m suspicious.

Any struggling paralegals here? Do you feel like your financial situation is affecting your productivity at work? I like the work I do but the pay really sucks.

My husband and I are in 2nd month of trying to get pregnant. Been on BC on and off for the last 15 years. Taking prenatal vitamins, watching ovulation, watching diet, any other suggestions?

Any data/strategy related PhD holders here? Do you regret not having taken a more (or less) technical route? If you transitioned from academia to industry, how was the experience?

Hi I’m a consultant in Deloittes C&M offering in NY. I was hoping if someone here would have a chat about a referral. My fiancé is in London and was looking to explore roles at EY UK. Thank you

I’ve seen BareFaced mentioned a few times in this bowl. Previously I’d never heard of it. How does it compare to a SkinCeuticals or a Obagi - especially for products like VitC and serums?

I just finished YSOM's behavioral assessment....what the hell...

Like if voting for Trump, Helpful if voting for Biden. Let’s see.

TIL Karl Marx was a massive racist and anti-Semite. I knew he was a bad guy but had no idea he was a virulent racist.

About 2,300 National Guard members will remain in Washington as deployment is extended through most of May

Disappointed and ashamed that this wasn’t a full rebuke of Trumpism but all the signs point towards a narrow win.

Can you objectively look at Trump’s record without letting your emotions alter the insights?

Come on folks.

Do you seriously think you can shame Republicans out of fetishizing guns? Millions of senseless deaths haven't changed their minds yet, and this isn't going to be any different.

I think Trump will be reelected. Do you agree?

Assuming Biden wins the election, over or under two years before Kamala is Pres?

Terrifying scope of Capitol attack becoming clearer as Washington locks down for Biden's inauguration

Remind me when TDUMP served the 🇺🇸 by being in the military or any of his sons? Oh that’s right. Never. But Biden’s son did. Hmmmm

6 PM- This bowl will be lit 🔥

More lit than ever!!

Reminder that DC and several states have primaries today while protesters are still blocking buildings and streets. I wonder where the “voter suppression” crowd in the media is, or does that only apply to Republicans?
