The story of the Jack Froese emails is chilling.. After a man passed away in 2011, his friends started receiving emails from his personal account, some of which referenced private, in-person conversations that nobody else could have known. It was never explained.

In 2015 a video appeared on YouTube with zero context. No description. No channel history. Just uploaded and left there.

The video shows a figure in darkness wearing a plague doctor mask. Distorted visuals. A horrible high-pitched noise throughout.

People analysed it and found hidden Morse code in the audio. They decoded it — GPS coordinates. A location in Poland.

Then they found hidden images in the audio spectrogram. When you convert the sound to visual, faces appear. A woman. Distorted. Looking directly at you.

Then binary code in the video frames. Decoded to an IP address.

The Morse code also spelled: *"You are already [not alive]."*

Nobody ever identified who made it. The account vanished. No one claimed it.

Either it was an ARG puzzle that was never finished. Or it wasn't a game at all.

An image got posted on 4chan looking for “highly intelligent individuals,” that linked to series of puzzles which quickly escalated into ciphers, steganography, hidden websites, and even phone numbers that you could call up for clues. There was even QR code posters that appeared in cities all over the world.

People solved parts of it, but nobody has ever seemed to prove who was behind it or what they were recruiting for.

Nurse anesthesist & anesthesiologist often play on their phone when things are well in surgery

When a critical patient is brought to the ED by ambulance and goes straight to a trauma room… there is a body bag already on the bed, under the stretchy fitted sheet.

In the ER you can have a patient come in for an STD check, one with a sore throat, someone for poison Ivy, someone with a stubbed toe, someone with a broken arm, someone having a heart attack or stoke, maybe they survive, maybe they don’t. You clean them up, allow family in, then you hop into a room with impatient/disrespectful family or patient, or maybe have to deal with a child immediately after. All in a 12 hr shift. AND legally document all those events so as not to lose your job/license.

Your OR team is probably severely sleep deprived. I have done MANY 24 Hour shifts of straight surgery back to back because of call. Your surgeon is prob the most sleep deprived if they’re on call at the hospital and we are operating on you while you’re asleep and fully reliant on us. We’ve all become accustomed to it but it’s not safe for you or us.

CPR isn’t a miracle life saver like on TV - you’ll still probably pass away but in agony from us cracking your ribs and shoving a tube down your throat. More people should consider DNR/DNI and comfort measures. Quality vs quantity. I’ve seen more people die with quality CPR and ACLS than survive it.

The curtains that separate patients in any area are NEVER and I mean NEVER CLEANED.

How much your providers Google your symptoms and then encourage you not to Google them.
How much malpractice actually happens and is covered up because you don't know the right questions to ask.
How much racism in medicine exist ESPECIALLY if you are Spanish-speaking only or a black woman.
How most times mistakes are made solely because of a providers ego and inability to take advice from the team
I could go on and on.

Those blood pressure cuffs & oxygen monitor that goes on your finger doesn't get cleaned often 😩

Choosing to stay longer when you’re already advised to be discharged puts you at risk for an unnecessary nosocomial (i.e. hospital-acquired) infection like pneumonia.

If you’ve been boarding in the ER and suddenly get a room in the middle of the night.. it’s because the person who was in that room most likely passed away 🙊

RN here. Hospitals are dangerous. The bugs there are super resistant to antibiotics. Get in, get out as quick as you can. And treat the staff nicely, the staff remember.
