Geology is professional goblincore

This one's definitely going on the "words to some day find an excuse to use in a sentence" list.

when god closes a door you reach your little paws under it and go mrrwwaaaooow mmreeaaow

Although geology may seem like a stamp collecting activity without the rigor and logical unity of physics, it wasn't so long ago that geologists, looking at layer upon layer of rock laid down over the eons, were in the know about the extreme age of the Earth, whereas physicists, at the time ignorant of nuclear reactions, were unable to explain how the sun could burn for that long. And it was geology, not physical cosmology, that inspired a materialistic conception of the origins of our world, in which the same natural processes have operated since the beginning. This geological perspective of an ancient and gradually changing planet inspired Darwin's theory of evolution, radically changing our understanding of our place in the world. Geology, at the time, was the emblem of reason and rationality and predecessor of other sciences. We can see even 100 years later the enthusiasm for geology and its symbolism of science in general, when the United States of America, one of the two world superpowers at the time, was persuaded to spend up to 5% of its federal budget on geological expeditions to the moon. Strange as it may seem today, this collection of rocks attracted an enormous worldwide live television audience. Although most of those tuning in would not have understood what scientific hypotheses hinged upon an analysis of these rocks, many of them would have had rock collections as children and could imagine themselves in the place of these geologist-heroes, perhaps laying the foundations for the next Darwinian revolution with their rock collecting.

Come on, Barbie, let's go party.

So I finally did the thing.

[Image description: Two smartphone screenshots of a Facebook post by a person named Sheila Toll posted 2 Sep. It is black text on a white background and the post is public. The post reads:

I am a Family Doctor and I want to keep a promise made to a patient. 

Julie was a healthy, post-menopausal woman in my care who came in for a periodic health examination. One of my routine questions, in what is called the “Review of Systems”, was to ask if she had experienced any vaginal bleeding. 

She said “No” but then laughed and added, “Other than when my period came back for a few months last year”. 

All health care professional are taught early on that ‘vaginal bleeding in a post-menopausal woman is Cancer of the Uterus until proven otherwise’. This comment by Julie was, therefore, a red flag (no pun intended) prompting further questions, an examination and an ultrasound of her pelvis. 

Julie was surprised to see me so concerned, especially since the symptoms had not recurred over many months. 

Sure enough, a pelvic ultrasound and tissue sampling confirmed Cancer of the Uterus. 

Julie underwent a hysterectomy and radiation therapy. She is now healthy, cancer-free and is expected to stay that way. 

After all this was done, Julie sat ME down for a talk. She told me she’d had no idea a ‘short return’ of her period after menopause was a danger signal. Furthermore, she addressed the topic with friends over coffee and discovered that, out of 20 women, NONE of them knew this symptom was abnormal! She admonished me to “Tell women this! Don’t assume we know it!”

From that day on, I have kept Julie’s advice in mind when talking with post-menopausal patients. But recently my wife suggested that I should take this to a wider audience. 

So, Julie, this is for you: 

If you are a post-menopausal woman and your period ‘comes back’ or you have even one episode of vaginal bleeding, TELL A HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONAL and insist on having it investigated! 

Wishing you all good health and long lives. End image description.]
