Sometimes I wonder how it’s possible that I can make life or death decisions on a daily basis and yet on some days it takes until I see the hospital off the exit to realize that 1, I’m not working today and 2, there are three children in my backseat whose school I passed two exits ago.

I’m still trying to figure out how to use social media to keep up with changes in medicine and hear about neat video games without being subject to a never-ending deluge of the worst people and events that humanity has to offer.

β€œEmotional trauma and clinician burnout are inevitable in healthcare, in which a strong internalized tradition of soldiering on in the face of stress and a focus on personal frailty exist.”

Hello again to all the medical people who’ve migrated over here! I’m not really ready to talk medicine much here. Moral injury is still too much a part of my workday. Changes coming soon, hopefully.

In the meantime, I’m reading a bunch and playing video games to escape.

I’ve been on quite a long break from social media, trying to figure out what I want to use it for. I’m here and on Threads for now. Closed my twitter account for the same reason everyone else has.

I’ve read so many of these books and Animal Crossing from @kelslewin.bsky.social is my favorite so far. Well-researched, insightful, and genuinely funny.

I know like 10 words in Japanese now. Although one of them is sushi, so I don’t think that really counts.

Someday we’ll look back on this, laugh nervously, and change the subject.
