/diy/ - Do It Yourself

Kohlberg noted a stage 4½ or 4+, a transition from stage four to stage five, that shared characteristics of both.[8] In this stage the individual is disaffected with the arbitrary nature of law and order reasoning; culpability is frequently turned from being defined by society to viewing society itself as culpable.

/diy/ isn't a waste of time!

I want to add: A course in developmental psychology, so they know what thetalented /diy/ercan do and when. Also, if you have a mental illness, get it treated.

I've had this idea for a very long time. I would play a game with a number o strangers. I'd leave a few envelopes with a note and a phone SIM card inside around random places in town. At all times, I'd have a list of all the phone numbers. The notes would point to some other clues hidden in the weirdest of places. All the clues would form a huge, elaborated riddle. Maybe I would include promises of a reward at the very end of the game, or a threat, to keep my subjects motivated.


What for? To see if I could find people willing to play. To see how far they would get. To see if I can plot and manage a vast, elaborate scheme.

First, graduate high school. Only the dumbest members of society can't graduate high school, and I wouldn't trust them to put a bandaid on their own boo-boo.

Second, get your CPR for healthcare workers card. Costs @ 60 USD for a one day class. Optional: First aid, lifesaving, lifeguard certs.

Third, sign up for an Emergency Medicine class at your local community college. Mine had a 40% pass rate for the class (that's including people taking it a second time) and a 80% pass rate for the national exam IIRC.

Congrats! You now understand basic medicine, the fundamental laws that cover its misuse, and have an itty bitty scope of practice that includes a whopping 8 medicines, none of them invasive!

Alternately, Medical Assistants have the same scope as EMTs, but are more geared toward the hospital environment rather than the field. IE, they walk a lot instead of drive and deal with more poop.

I do not recommend starting a full-on regimen of classes geared toward earning a nursing degree. First get your feet wet. See if you can handle being touched by strangers and touching strangers and body fluids and stress. If you wash out of the EMT class, which includes a small abbreviated anatomy section, you stand no chance of passing the class entirely dedicated to anatomy and physiology.

If your ass is too dumb to realize you need to understand human anatomy before medicine, the system will wash you out like its supposed to. If you pass, then great, you get to decide if its a career you want to pursue, or just something good to know.
