who would have thought that the solution to homelessness is providing people with housing? 🧐
The solution isn’t 100% perfect, there’s a lot of people who aren’t technically homeless because they live with other people for free etc. but yeah this does majorly help reduce risks for vulnerable people.

Here’s the big thing about it that might scandalize Americans even more so than the idea of free housing: you don’t have to do anything toΒ β€œdeserve it.” Most countries use what’s calledΒ β€œthe staircase model” – you start by being in shelter, then maybe a halfway house, then permanent housing. You canΒ β€œmove up” by going through rehab or getting a job or accessing other services. The idea is that housing is something you get as a reward for good behavior, not something you get by right.
But with the housing first model, you get the house first, and thenΒ deal with everything else. It’s a lot easier to stop using drugs and alcohol when you have other ways to pass the time and aren’t under constant stress. It’s a lot easier to get a job when you have an address to put on your applications. It’s a lot easier to treat mental illness when you’re in a safe place that doesn’t add to your fear and pain. But if your mentality is that housing is something only the morally pure and socially acceptable deserve, and the only way to get it is for people to jump through hoops to prove their goodness, then of course you’re going to hate this model.

 Today we learned about Lyme disease
 and it's classic symptom: a bullseye rash
 (erythema migrans) formed around the
 area of a tick bite.
 A classmate of mine asked, "How is this
 diagnosed for those with darker skin?"
 Our professor struggled to give him a
 clear answer. 1/5

 Replying to @LashNolen
 After class I decided to google what we learned to
 see what images came up. I wasn't surprised by
 what I found: a homogenous representation of the
 bullseye rash on white skin.
 .
 It's no wonder our professor didn't have a good
 answer to answer my classmate's question. 2/5

 I'm learning more and more that medicine is
 taught in a way that is often times exclusionary and
 the treatment and manifestation of disease in
 those with melinated skin is treated as an
 afterthought, a "special case" of illness that
 students must do extra work to understand. 3/5

 This left me with the following thoughts:
 1. If stage 1 Lyme disease is taught to be
 recognized as a rash on white skin, how are we
 supposed to diagnose Lyme disease in our darker
 skinned patients? Does this mean Lyme disease
 will progress to later stages in these patients? 4/5

 2. How does this later detection contritubute to
 the disparities we see in healthcare and what can
 we do in #med Ed to reduce these disparities and
 ensure students have the tools necessary to treat
 and diagnosis patients of all skin types equitably?

Most of the medical research was done on white males and their response to medicine. This is why medical books should only serve as a framework but clinical expertise matters more.
And this is why we need more black doctors.




Black people are more likely to die from skin cancer for the same reason. It’s just diagnosed later.

 Today we learned about Lyme disease
 and it's classic symptom: a bullseye rash
 (erythema migrans) formed around the
 area of a tick bite.
 A classmate of mine asked, "How is this
 diagnosed for those with darker skin?"
 Our professor struggled to give him a
 clear answer. 1/5

 Replying to @LashNolen
 After class I decided to google what we learned to
 see what images came up. I wasn't surprised by
 what I found: a homogenous representation of the
 bullseye rash on white skin.
 .
 It's no wonder our professor didn't have a good
 answer to answer my classmate's question. 2/5

 I'm learning more and more that medicine is
 taught in a way that is often times exclusionary and
 the treatment and manifestation of disease in
 those with melinated skin is treated as an
 afterthought, a "special case" of illness that
 students must do extra work to understand. 3/5

 This left me with the following thoughts:
 1. If stage 1 Lyme disease is taught to be
 recognized as a rash on white skin, how are we
 supposed to diagnose Lyme disease in our darker
 skinned patients? Does this mean Lyme disease
 will progress to later stages in these patients? 4/5

 2. How does this later detection contritubute to
 the disparities we see in healthcare and what can
 we do in #med Ed to reduce these disparities and
 ensure students have the tools necessary to treat
 and diagnosis patients of all skin types equitably?

Most of the medical research was done on white males and their response to medicine. This is why medical books should only serve as a framework but clinical expertise matters more.
And this is why we need more black doctors.

 At first glance, Ghost Clock appears to be a grandfather clock hidden by a large white
 sheet tied with a rope. A closer look, however, reveals a masterful deception: this
 entire sculpture was hand-carved from a single block of laminated mahogany. With
 meticulous detail, Castle re-created in wood the contours of soft, supple cloth, then
 completed the illusion by bleaching the "drapery" white and staining the base of the
 "clock" a walnut brown. This work is the last in a series of thirteen clocks the artist
 created in the 1980s; unlike the others, it lacks an inner mechanism. Its haunting
 stillness and silence suggest eternity-the absence of time.

THAT IS MAHOGANY

I thought this was a joke until I read the description

WHAT HTE FCUK

It’s one of my favorite pieces at the Renwick. It’s a solid block of mahogany and you can see the impression of knobs under the cloth.
