I was wondering when it would be my turn. Today is that day.

In Australia they are able to request some x-rays. As in the entire spine, which ends up irradiating radio-sensitive organs like the thyroid and ovaries, often in young people. As a radiographer this shit drives me up the fucking wall, especially given the already frustrating battles over inappropriate imaging requests from real, actual doctors. Want to know a contributing factor to the increase in cancers? The absolutely absurd radiation doses people are sucking up over years of over-imaging.

That was my thought too. Nothing like a bit of blood and bone to get plants growing. Something, something...it's what plants crave!

I was a little worried this would be "Commuting is bad for your mental health.....so just live at work!". I may be getting a little cynical in my old age.
