one thing i’m stuck on is this idea that “masculine” energy means license to act like a chud in public, as opposed to more traditional notions of public masculinity, such as those that put a premium on the performance of integrity, honesty, honor and generosity.

the echo/ECG pendulum has swung in a weird way
I’m seeing patients with multiple echo/POCUS exams & zero ECGs
any ICU patient with a heart should get an admit ECG
will be trying to emphasize ECGs a bit to balance this out

We possess the technology to create products that nearly never break. We were doing it in the 70's & 80's.
Then came 'planned obsolescence' - intentionally designing products to become obsolete or break quickly within a set time frame.
This is that- but in reverse.
