Hi #hapc25 and #palliative care community; have you heard about Dr. Richard Payne? He was a true pioneer and paved the way for many of us caring underserved patients in #hpm. A pioneer, IDT mentor and so so much more. Let’s learn and celebrate him. www.thehastingscenter.org/news/dr-rich...
Dr. Richard Payne Remembered

Hello #hapc25 👋

If you are new to Bluesky, I made a tip sheet to get familiar with this new platform.

There is actually a growing #hospice and #PalliativeCare group of people here.
Made a tip sheet on "How to Bluesky"

Highlights: Mute, Block, Requiring Alt Text, Moderation lists, Labels, Badges, Feeds, Starter Packs, etc.

Hopefully it makes the experience of getting started here a little bit easier. Feedback welcomed.

When people ask how I do my job because it’s “so sad” I always tell them about how much joy and laughter there is too. Joy is how we survive horrible things. Joy is part of healing. Joy is part of grief and pain. We will need lots of joy and laughter over the next few years. #pedpc #hapc
Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.

We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

Twitter is dead. Long live Bluesky!

Helping the people not here yet, figure out that they need to be here.

We had to blow some dust off the keyboard and switch the computer on and off. But the blog still can post.

For new BlueSky users, please consider flipping the toggle to require Alt Text on all photos that you post. I did it when I started here and it did not take long to get used to it.

It helps to make this community more inclusive.
