Happy St Katherine's Day to all scholars, librarians, and Katherines. May you win an argument against an annoying man today, in the true spirit of Katherine herself.

Joy is about understanding, recognizing, and deeply internalizing the profound truth that everything in this life—every emotion, every circumstance, every moment of pain or pleasure—is inherently temporary, fleeting, and impermanent in nature.

It is Salon 10.
Please join me in the Marriott Marquis Salon at 2 pm for insights into the @MilitaryHealth System. How have changes in care impacted avoidable hospitalizations? Is primary care ‘better’ in MTFs or in the US private sector? @TRICARE @PublicHealth
I'm going to APHA’s 2025 Annual Meeting and Expo, November 2-5 in Washington, D.C.! Will I see you there? Register today to connect with me and 12,000 public health professionals and partners from around the world. #APHA2025 #PublicHealth

“Parents should be empowered to access information that is independent of the firearm industry … They have the right to be informed that having homes & communities free of firearms is the only effective way to prevent firearm injuries among all children and young people.”
New paper led by the indefatigable @maizie333.bsky.social :
The NRA has made unsupported claims about the effectiveness of the Eddie Eagle Gunsafe® program for over 30 yrs while undermining those who advocate for child safety, including public health actors and mothers.
Now read on...
The CDC recognises firearm injuries as a serious public health issue & the American Academy of Pediatrics states that the “most effective way to prevent unintentional gun injuries, suicide and homicide to children and adolescents… is the absence of guns from homes and communities”.

Don't tell me "they don't integrate."
Exactly.

My kid went to an inner city school where they were a minority as white British. It was fine.

These kids, who's parents came from a myriad of overseas places, were integrated into society. They were as lovely & as horrible as any UK child is.

Don't tell me "they don't integrate."
Integrate into what, exactly? What constitutes Britishness? Place of birth? Parentage? Shared experience? Social awkwardness? Pubs? Village cricket? How many shibboleths are required?

Unless you are my kid redeploying from war, I am not coming to meet you at BWI. You've been warned. I love you but IAD and DCA are the only rational choices for NoVA.
There are friends. Then, there are friends who will pick you up at the (distant) airport. 👊
I’m at the airport in Toronto picking up my neighbours returning from France. Miserable drive but no ice. Just a ton of fog and rain ☔️
