I've been noodling a lot lately on academic freedom and the ability of faculty members to speak as individual faculty members
I get the impression that many are self-muzzling due for self-preservation purposes
This is a quick 🧵 on speaking out as an academic faculty member

Going through the usual Sunday 👻😨 while riding the unrelenting 🌊 of the news cycle, all before starting a 7-day #HMSky stretch 🏥 tomorrow … Already feeling exhausted 😓
Not looking forward to rounding on wards full of flu/RSV/corona 🩺😷
But 2 bright spots

Dear #MedSky colleagues,
A quick consult 📟: Wife and I will be taking our soon-to-be 1 year old 👶 to visit my in-laws in China. Any tips on surviving this international ✈️ ?
For context, we did splurge on getting business seats. Hoping to secure a bassinet.

Do you ever find yourself going into a ☕️ shop with the exact order in mind, but then once the barista asks, “what would you like today?” then you start panicking 😓 and caffeine craving goes into overdrive. And the next thing you know you are coming out of the shop with 2x ☕️☕️? 🙈
No..? Just me..?
No..? Just me..?

When I asked how the night went you gave the tiniest of shrugs.
You: “I’m making it.”
Me: “What does that mean?”
You: *shrugs again*
You turned in bed a bit and I saw you grimace. It was fleeting but I saw it.
You were not okay.

A busy life is not a symbol of status. It's a symptom of trying to do too much for too many people.
A full calendar brings a surplus of stress and a shortage of energy. Reflecting and relaxing should be top priorities.
Unscheduled time isn't wasted. It's invested in well-being.

How quickly someone answers you is rarely a sign of how much they care about you.
Delayed replies to emails, texts, and calls are often symptoms of being overwhelmed.
Unless it's urgent, the true test of a relationship isn't the speed of response. It's the quality of attention.

It turns out, sending my 👶 to his FIRST day of daycare and finding out where my resident “kids” matched for FELLOWSHIP on the same day yesterday = emotionally crippling ❤️🩹😭🥺
