Spending bday at the Louisiana Museum

hospitals want us to do more with less without a concern for patient safety or our own wellbeing while refusing to pay us adequate wages

I am so triggered by RJK Jr's comment about ICU's being empty during #COVID. I re-read what I wrote after one of the surges. How do others forget. The trauma was--and is--real.

I'm An ICU Doctor. I’m Haunted By What I’ve Seen During The Recent COVID-19 Surge.

“I can’t stop thinking about the 40-something man who told me, ‘I can’t die like this. I just got engaged and have a 6-month-old baby.’ I encouraged him to be positive, but that didn’t stop him from d...

Another nice morning in Kobenhavn

In an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, the first responder is often an ordinary person. 💯 MEP Grégory Allione's message at #EPResuscitates is clear: early CPR saves lives, and wider CPR education across Europe means stronger, safer communities. Join us. More info www.erc.edu #EduSky #CPR #ResusSky

RFK Jr said these words today on national television "There were ICUs that were empty all over the country including in New York at the height (of the pandemic)" hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha You are a fucking idiot hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha <sobs silently>

I chair the code response at a large free standing children’s hospital. We are not attached to an adult hospital. Over a third of our code activations are for adults. It’s not just kids present in a children’s hospital. This is about school closures during the covid pandemic.

Nice morning for a stroll.

a) when people talk about pandemic learning loss from distant learning, what is the counterfactual? what would have happened if kids kept going to school where lots of people got sick all the time? b) vaccinating kids & teachers sounds like a great way to do in-person school safely

To whom do we report the Department of Education for bullying?

It's depressing that this moved me so much, but did. First time I've heard a politician praise a group of immigrants, without caveat, for a long while.

Andy Burnham, "To me, carers should be the best paid people in society, not the worst" "Many people from other countries have been caring for my dad" Andy Burnham praises migrants to the UK who care for our elderly, a stark contrast to Keir-island-of-strangers-Starmer

At a time when our nation and the world are facing growing infectious disease threats to our collective health, Sen. Paul’s persistence at conspiratorial muck raking is a disservice to us all. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

The guy that they want you to be terrified of (Mamdani) is making sure kids in NYC are fed all summer and people have access to cheaper groceries, all while they take food away from kids getting SNAP. Just sayin, feeding kids should make you the good guy.

It’s a little too late, but sending good vibes to everyone taking the Bar exam today, and tomorrow. (Including my daughter)

40 years ago I had the good fortune to spend 6 weeks at Oxford. One vivid memory was having Pimm’s and Lemonade. I can say…40 years later…still a great drink on a hot summer afternoon.

The definitive Christmas Carol movie exists, and no remakes/retellings will ever surpass it.

Back at the hospital for Code Team Training! New academic year, lots of new learners 😃

There’s a local hospital that decided to use an AI voiceover for their commercials and it’s done more to make me never want to use that facility.

2/ But even with that reversal, the FDA still says Taylor Farms is linked to the outbreak. If you're confused, trust me, you're not alone. This is one of the most opaque, confusing, and unclearly communicated outbreak responses I've ever seen. Right now, you should still avoid iceberg lettuce.

To my Canadian friends…I’m sorry he really is that dumb and petty

Sharing…mostly to congratulate everyone who is getting this for the first time. #PedsICU

I cannot overstate how much I hate when people are dicks about babies crying in public (especially airplanes). Do you think the parent is having a good time right now?? Do you think they are not aware of the situation??? Are you going to negotiate with a literal infant????

Now no parking the bus!

That was pretty.

The Count has had nothing to count today. He should've gone to the England/France match.

Jonas crashing out is so sad. Now focusing on the white jersey competition, as well as the other podium spots. #TourDeFrance

After a majority of my hair came out today, I’m trying to raise funding for a wig for work. If you can help with a donation- it would mean the world to me.

After many sweet people requested me to get a GoFundMe set up I finally did it. Still feels weird posting this, but I appreciate any help. gofund.me/1e496d3b0

A good day to tell you, if you’ve never seen Hunt for the Wilderpeople, it’s totally worth your while.
