On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss:

If someone could only see your actions and not hear your words, what would they say are your priorities?

One of your fellow medical students is openly racist, misogynistic, and homophobic. Do you have a duty to report this terrible person in hopes it prevents them from ever becoming a doctor?

You're skeptical of mainstream viewpoints and want to explore every angle of an issue, but you find yourself getting sucked into conspiracy theory-level stuff. How can you maintain a healthy balance that errs toward accuracy, not nonsense?

You're in school to be an airline pilot (your lifelong dream), but COVID-19 has decimated the industry and made your chance of being hired in the US uncertain. What options might you explore?

You read so many books and consume such a vast amount of information that it becomes difficult to remember the important bits. How can you retain this data without becoming overwhelmed?

VPN! Huh! What is it good for? Absolutely lots, as ExpressVPN VP Harold Li explains here.

Life Pro Tip: When you’re dealing with someone who is notoriously bad at responding to email and you need to ask them a yes/no question, frame your question so that their lack of reply is a response.

Recommendation of the Week: Mr. Toilet: The World’s #2 Man
