I’ve noticed there seem to be more anaesthesia/ICM men using Bluesky than women in anaesthesia/ICM.

So naturally, I’ve created a starter pack for women in anaesthesia & ICM #womeninanaesthesia

Just saw a clip of Ambika Mod playing Shruti. Gosh that piece of acting was something else. We all know Shruti. Devastating. Such an excellent show #ThisIsGoingToHurt

I’m here because I’ve known and felt that for years.

Sharing as live programming now talks about the pressure on interest rates due to credit crunch and the last pandemic, but no mention of EU Withdrawal damaging more than our GDP.

Keep fighting the good fight!

Good piece in the @manchestermill.bsky.social about the flag raisers.

Wherever we looked for the prominent flaggers and leaders of this movement, we found people smugglers and sex doll salesmen, people with dubious criminal pasts and people willing to put in a good word for Adolf Hitler.

Nigel Farage says this summer’s movement was led by ‘ordinary people’ expressing their patriotism. That’s not what we found

Businesses joining in the flag trend must be very confident in their solid customer base & have no concerns about messaging to others. Interesting deployment of multiple England flags by our local Italian restaurant run by a Polish family.

The real horror this Halloween?? 2,000 tonnes of plastic costumes haunting our planet, according to research by Hubbub 😱
This spooky season, swap new costumes for pre-loved from charity shops, or get crafty with what you already have at home.

Survey Sunday - I shall be sharing these results with the powers that be. Really would love to see some more ED, medicine and other specialties add their experiences. Thanks all. Do share with your contacts. Thanks
It’s Survey Sunday! Hashtag Survey Sunday. OK, I made that up. But if you have 5 mins & feel like sharing your experience of being (or not being) IPed on a resus course we’d love to hear it. Open to all grades, specialties across UK.

Share on your team WhatsApps! Thanks all 😁🤩

This is an exact encapsulation of why I moved to Bluesky.

No amount of handwringing in the Atlantic about how I owe some eternal Promethean suffering to the discourse is going to make me stay on a site I hate, that stopped doing anything for me professionally years ago.
