““DOs are trained to look at the whole person from their first days of medical school, which means they see each person as more than just a collection of organ systems and body parts that may become injured or diseased. This holistic approach to patient care means that osteopathic medical students learn how to integrate the patient into the health care process as a partner. They are trained to communicate with people from diverse backgrounds, and they get the opportunity to practice these skills in their classrooms and learning laboratories, frequently with standardized and simulated patients. The osteopathic medical profession has a proud heritage of producing primary care practitioners. In fact, the mission statements of the majority of osteopathic medical schools state plainly that their purpose is the production of primary care physicians. Osteopathic medical tradition preaches that a strong foundation in primary care makes one a better physician, regardless of what specialty they may eventually practice.””

Millenial goals: having any money left after bills, an apartment without roommates, dying quickly and painlessly in the initial nuclear exchange to avoid witnessing the collapse of humanity

donald trump is president, but not for much longer.  he is about to be impeached by the congress of the united states.  as mr. donald sits sweatily on his uncomfortable wooden chair in the capitol building he cant help but feel the tiniest bit of remorse for what he did.  but it is too late for that now.  as his hair slides down his head like a piece of melting butter on a skillet, the congressman shouts YOURE FIRED at the shattered shell of a former business mogul and president
