Petition to bring back the Snuggie.
Just saw a patient who had one with cuffed sleeves and everything. THIS is the kind of energy we need in 2025.

Donald Trump could literally rape a ten-year-old on live TV and his supporters would not wane in their devotion, yet he and the rest of the GOP continually stall and deflect from releasing the Epstein files. This tells me that what is in those files is unimaginably worse than we think.

Walked by a sign in the hospital today that said “is it time for hospice?”
Me. Out loud. “Yup”
I am OVER. IT. (I’m fine, just the chronic existential dread)

So excited to hear Dr. Mike (@pediacast.bsky.social) speak at #AAP2025. Speaking about online health information and AI.
Only 1% of healthcare professionals create online content. I’m proud to be one of those! It’s vital since so much of the population consumes health content online.

Getting lost on a trail while jamming to 90’s/00’s grunge/rap/hip hop is what my mind and body needed today.

day 1 of the War of Portland: I sit in the trenches (of my yard) with coffee. We all got flu shots today, then I drove by a protest with senior citizens holding signs and playing music. There was honking; impending domestic terror? I listen for sounds of antifa in the distance. Might go for a run.

I just scrolled by the comment section on an article about the ICE shootings.
The (right wing) commenter didn’t understand why people were offended by ICE wearing masks.
Went on to say that people don’t understand that wearing a mask protects the ICE officer AND their family…
