From the opera, to the operating theater, and back! For any rule, I’m the exception.

Yes, I also had to read that twice. The president’s mandate is to shut down the department of education. Please let that sink in.

Announce tariffs, stock marked down. Billionaires buy stock cheaply. Hold tariffs, stock market up, billionaires make money. Insider trading much?!

Please @housedemocrats.bsky.social @senatedem.bsky.social you must stop the insanity and the destruction of our country!

Our current regime is set to literally destroy our country. Everything.

Our current leaders are turning the U.S. into the new evil empire and isolating us more and more from the world. This is disastrous.

We cannot allow our trans and nonbinary friends, colleagues, loved ones, and folks to be erased! Never. #Cis4Trans.

Celebrating the inclusive future of #surgery and grateful for the Southern Surgical Assn’s supporting the LDP scholars and their mentors. Interesting to see legends from the past looking down on us from the guilded ceiling…hopefully applauding change. #MedSky #SurgSky #AcademicSky

It’s Thanksgiving. I am thankful for all that I have and I am mindful of the mourning that today represents for our beloved #NativeAmerican friends, colleagues, and people.

From the election 3 million more workers in the U.S. gained the legal right to paid sick time. It should be standard and expected. #MedSky msmagazine.com/2024/11/19/p...

We need the establishment to let us evolve. Look in the mirror. Get new ideas. Don’t be afraid. Roll up the sleeves and get dirty!
There have been a lot of times where I feel like we need to have honest discussions on the left about what has worked and what hasn’t, share observations without judgement, but it feels like there isn’t much space for it. I think it’s holding us back.

I wonder how and where we can accomplish that.

We don't talk enough re: #eldercare. Caregiving is exhausting, harder than my day job & almost impossible to do with it. I've learned patience & found courage to share struggles: we need others' support/wisdom. Serving as an advocate is essential. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37983061/ #MedSky #SurgSky
