Reasons #17,654–17,661 that I love riding transit: I can chill/vibe and not have to focus on driving safely, I don't have to deal with asshole drivers, I can people-watch and city-watch, I can read, I can close my eyes.

I could go on; I have many others, which I put in the book. So invite me to speak to your #palliativecare group. Not that there's many doctors here, but still.
Or this one: a monolingual Anglophone nurse hears a patient speaking unintelligibly, assume it's delirium, until an L2 English speaking nurse recognises the language. The dying person isn't babbling; they've reverted to a mother tongue at the end of life.
