It's the same thing as a stoplight. The green light just means it's legal to go, not that it's safe.

Same goes with your blind trust in professionals. Medicine is the last place you'd do that.

Knowledge about how many things work in the society you live in isn't privilege, it's fucking common sense.

Also, walking around with a 20 pound fucking necklace is stupid, and especially so if you're doing something else at the time.

"He TRUSTED the professional"

Do you just give gas when the light turns green?

It's in almost every medical drama. It's also explained to you by the personnel.

Privileged is walking around with 20 pounds of shit strapped around your neck and expecting the world to yield to you.

Doctors rarely have a clue about the why of anything. They respond to trigger words, fill out paperwork, and send you on your merry way.

Why even wear the stupid necklace when going to the MRI in the first place? Like, how thoughtless and selfish can you be? Always assume you are surrounded by barely-functional morons, especially in the medical field which seems to attract these types of people, and think defensively.

"Geez, I'm going to be near an MRI machine, maybe I'll wear a 20 pound piece of steel around my neck? Genius! Let's do it!"

We're inside a dust cup?

I think you misunderstand. We protect single cells and blastomeres. Once they're out, our job is done.

Bring back the '70s babes with it like Joyce DeWitt or Jan Smithers.
