Objective measures of reaction to current state of US affairs: frequency at which one listens to Trent Reznor music and finds it comforting.

Time to walk the dog. He needs to take a Musk or two.

So many captions possible. The real US-UK special relationship. The rank taste of Trump.

This my authentic self, integrity matters, and you cannot be genuinely concerned with patients’ needs if you lack empathy.

100% with the former. That is why I am there and what I cling to for resilience against all of the other bullshit that happens at work. I commit to keep being professional. Respect views that are bigoted, misogynistic, predatory, faux pro life, fake pro family, etc? A hard fuck no on that, always.

Do good in the world not out fear or lust for what may come after you die, but because it feels good every day of your life not to be an asshole.
