I haven’t been able to stop thinking about this quote from John Sloane Dickey:

“The world’s troubles are your troubles…and there is nothing wrong with the world that better human beings cannot fix.”

Every organization needs to publish a similar sentiment. We should support each other, our patients, and use our voices.

Fine dude, you won. You got us all scared. We’re all fearing our lives, jobs, and future. Good work. Is that what you want to hear?

In the meantime, where are the presidents of universities, senators and representatives, and other “leaders”?

We all cope differently. Today I said no to a request. Baby steps.

Speaking of healthcare. Let's make @bsky.app the platform that fights misinformation. Some great follows are @drsusanoliver.bsky.social @jsm2334.bsky.social @therealtruther.bsky.social

Let's get them more followers and engagement than other platforms and let health science accounts find a home

In memory of Michael Wachs, MD, professor of transplant surgery, who passed away on Jan 17. Chief of Abdominal Transplant Surgery at Children's Hospital Colorado, he transformed lives through hundreds of transplants & his advocacy for living donation. His legacy of care will never be forgotten.

There are the days you plan and then the days you have. Rarely the same.

After taking ACLS for the 9th time, I stand by my claim that the 2 year expiration clock should reset every time you get ROSC. #medsky #emimcc

Since no one at DoJ will hold Trump accountable when he breaks the law - and he will break the law - we are going to need to rely on lawsuits to block him and slow him down. That's why we should all support the good work of @marcelias.bsky.social and @democracydocket.com.

I thought I was being dramatic with my earlier post.

If they cut Medicaid, Medicare, Dept of Education, NIH/CDC and most other grant opportunities, how does academic medicine continue? The only options I see are charging students and patients more or selling to private equity/industry. That isn’t good for anyone.

On the steep end of the learning curve but know it’s worth it on this platform #FOAMed #FOAMcc #surgsky

I like experiences (can be fancy or mundane/cheap). Fun to see the creativity and usually minimal cleanup or clutter.
