I'm trying to get licensed as a psychologist in Hawaii and their department of professional regulation is trying to "hold my beer" Illinois's department of professional regulation, which can take months to process things.
HI: Mail your application stuff, including a certification letter from a professional society that you are, in fact, cool.
Me: [mails stuff]
HI: The letter that you're cool has to come directly from the professional society, so have them email it to us at this email address.
Me: Hey professional society, can you please email this?
Professional society: We got you, babe
Me: [Checks application status about 6 weeks later, notices it hasn't changed, forwards email from professional society to Hawaii DPR]
HI: Your certification letter is expired, please ask for a new one and mail it to the PO Box below, with a copy of this correspondence. [Does not specify if I can mail it or if the professional society has to mail it. ]

14 and I have chosen our advanced open water scuba certification electives:
Underwater naturalist
Fish finder
Night diving
We’re doing the training with a dive master we’ve gone with a few times now and he’s promised to ensure we have plenty of light to see all the sharks on the night dive.

Oh my god absolute exposure therapy for me on this week’s episode of The Pitt. Early in my Crohn’s tenure I had a horrible experience with a tube used to inject contrast for a radiology test. I won’t go into details but I basically disassociated. Since then I’ve refused any test with tubes without sedation. Let’s just say there’s tube placement on someone awake in this episode. I made myself watch it because I’m either masochistic or am a phoenix rising from the ashes of the medical hellscape.
