A powerful piece by M. Gessen I can't do it justice by excerpt go read it (gift link) www.nytimes.com/2026/01/24/o...

Another masterpiece by @petridishes.bsky.social www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

We all saw what happened on Jan 6, 2020. We all saw what happened on Jan 7, 2026. All the ugliness of this administration is there for the world to see, regardless of what they say.

A first-person remembrance of @adammarc.bsky.social—brain cancer advocate, writer, punk philosopher & dear friend. Our friendship shaped my approach to survivorship through his guiding truth: “The best way through fear is familiarity.” www.thelizarmy.com/blog/adam-ha...

🔥 New video release “Can We Talk About CPR?” These talks deserve time, care, and personalization. Grateful to cardiologist Tammy Pegg for sharing her wisdom and experience for this one. And grateful to my friend @drkathrynmannix.bsky.social for connecting us youtu.be/yTCRfY3ETvI?...

A Christmas present from @drjrubenstein.bsky.social & Dr Tammy Pegg. If we talk clearly about the end of life, we put those frantic & unlived moments of unhelpful #CPR into context so their futility is clear. CPR is fantastic first aid in a crisis. Ordinary dying isn't a crisis. Talk about it.

My husband was detained by ICE today Juan Muñoz, an American citizen, father of 2, and local government official, was peacefully protesting w. other elected officials. He was assaulted and taken away I have had zero contact or updates since #SOS @duckworth.senate.gov @durbin.senate.gov

“ABC7 spoke to Pertissue Fisher, a woman who lives in the building. She said ICE agents took everyone in the building, including her, and asked questions later….’They was bringing the kids down, too, had them zip tied to each other.’” It can’t happen here, you say. But it is happening.

Whew. Such a powerful episode of @pedipal.bsky.social with Bob Macauley and Chris Adrian podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/p...

As a resident in 2007 I submitted an abstract as an early career professionals... presenting a poster at Assembly was my gateway to engagement, mentorship and community. Please share this opportunity with your students, residents and fellows! @aahpm.bsky.social @earlycareersig.bsky.social #hapc

Went for my covid and flu vaccine appointment today and to my surprise there was a wait. There was a steady stream of people coming in for both vaccines. I didn’t even mind the wait. It felt like hope.

@petridishes.bsky.social has been on 🔥 And she is exactly the brilliant satirist for these times

📣Check out this powerful new piece from the amazing @irabyock.bsky.social ✨He thoughtfully lays out strategies for the advancement of our field ✨And highlights what we do at our core: “Hospice and palliative care foster wellbeing through the end of life.” www.liebertpub.com/doi/epdf/10....

This is just brilliant @drjrubenstein.bsky.social I am looking forward to talking with you soon & learning more about the stories & inspiration behind your work www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Tlm...

Thanks so much @clarefuller.bsky.social Loved partnering with my amazing friend @thelizarmy.bsky.social on this one. Excited for our chat!

Shared at the SE #PEoLC meeting today - a super video by @drjrubenstein.bsky.social Let's stop apologising for palliative care www.youtube.com/watch?v=nkWr...

As a palliative care doctor, the painting “The Doctor” by Luke Fildes always seemed in complete to me. So I used AI to reimagine it with the full palliative care team on board. Serious illness is lonely. No family should go through it without a team.

“On Not Betraying Our Trainees, Especially Now” I won an Extraordinary Achievement Award from the Critical Care Assembly last month The @atscommunity.bsky.social premier journal @atsblueeditor.bsky.social TODAY published the remarks I made on that occasion www.atsjournals.org/doi/10.1164/...

🎇PediPal is BACK! 🎆 With "Episode 39: This Marrow Space," Sarah and Dan return after a long hiatus to explore... well, why exactly did they take a hiatus in the first place? (Spoiler alert: Dan now has an entirely new immune system.) Listen on pedipal.org or your favorite podcast platform!

To remove vaccines from ACIP guidelines, which seems to be the end goal here, is effectively a ban. If a vaccine is not recommended, Medicare/Medicaid and private insurance can refuse to cover it. Few people can afford to pay for the cost out of pocket. RFK Jr's end game is to ban vaccines!!!

🙏🏼 So honored to be invited to present the opening talk of the wonderful ALPM conference by Canadian Society of Palliative Medicine ✨Got a chance to talk about one of my favorite topics: how we talk with others inside and outside healthcare about the wonderful field palliative care

Superb #ALPM2025 by @drjrubenstein.bsky.social about "PR" in #palliativecare TAKE AWAY: Palliative care doesn't need to change what we're called or what we do; we should help our non-pall peers understand our awesomeness Watch his Fire Department & other vids: www.jaredrubensteinmd.com/videos

Whatever *kind* of family I try to go in open minded & help to the best of my ability, as we all should. I went to a Dr’s appt with a loved one today & that person disclosed that I was a doc. Just on that alone we may have been pegged as a difficult consult / had assumptions made. 🙈🤔

"Episode 40: Nonfiction" is here! Dan and Sarah welcome back Dr. Bob Macauley and Dr. Chris Adrian to discuss writing about #pedpc (Bob's new book in particular: bookshop.org/p/books/beca...), and how narrative, personal trauma, and clinical practice intersect. CW: discussion of child sexual abuse

🔥 New video: “A Lovely Family” ❓How does the way we talk about patients and families in healthcare create bias in how we think about them? ❓Does it matter whether it is positive or negative bias? @gtarora.bsky.social youtu.be/ku9YKSB21T0?...
