Creatives, don’t just make up medical nonsense for your story.
15% of your audience works in healthcare.
Unrealistic portrayals make your characters and story lose credibility… AND can cause real life harm to any real life people who believe it

TWO patients declined my recommendations last night because they were worried about the cost
One of them was uninsured and declined a CT scan of her neck after her ex-boyfriend tried to strangle her
Someone else assaulted her, but she couldnt afford to care for herself

@valerioschiti.bsky.social captain america stands for so many things. I think it’s important that he does NOT stand for “America,” thus an iconic canadian could reasonably wield the shield

Sorry, Bsky friends, for I have sinned. It’s been 10 days since my last writing tips post.

Quick Shot: SKIN GLUE
Your character can look like a bad @$$ by glueing their own wounds together
Make sure they don’t glue a gaping wound or something that obviously needs stitches
BONUS: They can glue calluses on their fingers/hands

The Roman Republic fell when the State started rallying around individual politicians
125 years before Caesar, the last politician with a powerful cult of personality was tried for corruption and went into exile
Caesar didn’t. And the Republic fell.

History Lesson:
In the Roman Republic, elected officials held a one-year term limit. They had almost complete immunity
This could be extended through some military commands
Sketchy politicians started doing everything they could to maintain power/immunity…until the Republic fell to a Dictatorship

Quick Shot: WHIPPETS
Looking for a unique kind of substance abuse for your character?
Whippets are inhaled nitrous oxide (NO). It gives a quick high that’s not seen on drug screens
BUT, it has SERIOUS consequences
- dropped lung
- anemia
- PERMANENT numbness/weakness

Medical Movie Review: DONNIE DARKO
Awesome movie, but let’s talk about mental health
- He was obviously intelligent and chosen to save the world
BUT even though he MIGHT have underlying schizophrenia, calling it out in a deeply troubled character only adds to the stigma of it
