POINT: Medical dictation is the worst idea. It’s like somebody said “You know this thing that needs to be written down? How about we make it literally impossible to get it into the records by writing it down directly, and force you to do it in the form of a phone call to another person, who then writes it down for you? Why? Because f@#k people who don’t like phones, that’s why. Also, we’ll spend the next few decades telling you that you’re doing your phone calls wrong and you need to speak more clearly.”
COUNTER-POINT: In order to encourage clear and effective dictations, and apparently without any irony or self-awareness, my hospital has something called the Best Dictator Award. The doctor who does the best dictations each month gets a little plaque that says “BEST DICTATOR”. I have never in my life wanted anything as much as I want a “BEST DICTATOR” plaque for my office, and I will keep doing dictations with a smile on my face until I get one.

#anything that makes me laugh this much deserves a reblog
*squee* My custom accent for Canyon is ordered and paid for! I DID PEOPLE INTERACTION THINGS. :D
I think my next “big” FR project is gonna be saving up all the treasure for my remaining expansions to Ancient Lair by Thundercrack. (The first-place dom discount isn’t huge, it’s only 5%, but that’s still gonna save me 143,750 treasure overall. ^_^ ‘Sides, I like the idea of celebrating Thundercrack by moving to the Tempest Spire.) Little under 2.75 million – I can farm that in a week or ten days if I push, I’m tired of pushing, so I’m gonna take it slow. Hardest part’ll be not spending it all on dragon hats. XD
God, I wish RL had something like that where you work hard and get a slow but steady guaranteed income. I would be so rich, y’all. ;S I got no problem with grinding, it’s the part where I can’t reliably grind enough RL money to feed myself the calories I expend while grinding that discourages me.

Well, there’s Swagbucks. Nowhere near enough to live off of, and you have to take their “Special Offers” section with tons of salt (last I checked they don’t vet their third-party offer suppliers nearly well enough and pretty much all of the non-survey non-video ones look an awful lot like virusbait), but a reasonably diligent Canadian can get USD$25 a month in Paypal, which is $25 they wouldn’t have had otherwise. I hear it’s more if you’re American (they get earning options that other countries don’t), and much more if you either have more data in your Internet plan than you normally use or spend a lot of time in places with free Wi-Fi (so you can run their ad videos without spending more in overage fees than you get in payment). (My family routinely maxes out our Internet plan as it is, and I only spend maybe 10 – 30 minutes a week in public hotspots, so I’ve never been able to do those properly.)
(I used to be a reasonably diligent Canadian, but I haven’t really been on since November, after I paid for nearly half of this laptop ($130) using the Paypal balance I got from them. Maybe I should go back.)
(If you do give it a shot (and seriously, despite the Special Offers the rest of the place is really not very shady), let me know *before* you sign up and I’ll give you a referral link. It’s not under this name.)
This rocking chair is named “Cradle” was designed for creating a safe, comfortable, and relaxing space in which the user can dissipate the overstimulation of their senses. The design was heavily directed by a synthesis of research into Autism and children with Rhythmic Movement Disorder (RMD) as well as safety, sustainability, function, and aesthetics. We had a strong focus creating a solution for sufferers of RMD but the chair is not exclusively for them and will bring relaxation, comfort, and calmness to anyone who uses it.
Maybe because I just finished a whole DS9 re-watch the other week, and so it’s fresh in my mind, but when I saw today on twitter that it’s the 16th anniversary of the finale of Deep Space 9… well, I just felt like reminding everyone else, too!
How many of you where there to watch it broadcast, I wonder? I was in the end of my freshmen year of high school at the time, and still remember getting teary eyed at the end moments. Anyone else there to see it end?

I’ve uninstalled it, and here’s why you should too (if you have it). I noticed Norton was giving it an extra amount of scrutiny lately, going to guess this is why. Unfortunately when things seem to be too good to be true, they usually are.
Hey Tumblr, welcome to your better blocking system. So much better that we changed its name from “Ignore” to “Block.” A proper, muscular name. Solid as a block.
Someone acting like a tool? Go ahead, block them. Here’s what they won’t be able to do:
