SCOOP: The US Treasury claimed a DOGE's Marco Elez didn’t have ‘write access,’ when he actually did. Sources tell WIRED that his ability to alter code controlling trillions in federal spending was rescinded, days after officials said it didn't exist.

Back in ER today. Being a doctor mom is both a blessing—I speak doctor and can translate—and a curse.
What a day. The First Child had a medical episode and spent most of the day in the pediatric ER. The Second Child and I finished his invention fair project while we waited for the call to come bring @doctivist.bsky.social and the First Child home. All’s well that ends well.

1) asymptomatic elevated BP needs nothing acutely
2) rest is often better than meds
I remember as an intern getting calls in the night to give unfamiliar patients intravenous hydralazine for their asymptomatic elevated blood pressure.
Decades later, I'd have thought we know this is harmful and nonsensical, but apparently not entirely. #medsky

I got calls/pages like this all the time. I hope we can see more studies that expand on these findings. We need to remember to treat patients and not numbers. #Medsky

I went from never watching #dwts to watching two seasons simultaneously (one live, one streaming) and crying when someone gets voted off. Also crying when a dance is moving or a dancer cries. Just crying really.
