Attending: What kind of fracture is this? Me: Let’s just say it got frame-mogged by the ASU frat leader. Attending: Me: Attending: Me: It’s clavicular. Attending: Was that English? Me: I honestly don’t know.

Me: What’s red ear syndrome? Rheumatologist: It’s a syndrome where your ear gets red periodically. Me:

Attending: Did you bring your presentation about atrialization of the right ventricle in the setting of prenatal maternal lithium use? Me: Yes, I brought the Ebstein files. Attending: For the last time please stop calling it that.

Attending: Hey you missed an aneurysm on that CTA Me: Oh my bad — must have been subtle The CTA:

Important reminder: initiatives like subsidized public transit and safety net programs are not “free stuff.” They are benefits received in exchange for tax dollars, which is literally the purpose of government.

That’s Mayor Young Cardamom to you

I hope the Democratic leadership is taking notes. Progressive ideas are popular. People want more than corporatist talking points. People want moral leadership and a vision for how life could be better.

It’s now Twitter/Bluesky official

Jimmy Carter gave up his peanut farm to avoid the appearance of impropriety when he became President. Truly the most decent man to ever hold the office. May we be lucky enough to have another leader like him in our future.

Me logging into PACS to go over my reports with the attending:

Me: Do you see the abnormality? Med student: There is hypoattenuation in the medial temporal lobe. Me: That’s actually the mesial temporal lobe. Med student: What does mesial mean? Me: Med Student: Me:….medial.

Maybe I'm just a scaredy cat, but a 30% fatality rate seems pretty ominous to me.

For all the people saying denying and delaying coverage doesn’t increase insurance company profits, I’m legitimately curious, why do they do it at every possible juncture?

A little academic time is good for the soul

I love it when surgeons carry their loops around the hospital like where are you going with your little baby briefcase

This is literally every conversation I had with attendings when they would ask me questions on rounds

In this episode of the AJR Podcast Series on Diagnostic Excellence and Error, @francisdeng.bsky.social and @shailinthomas.bsky.social dive into the complex realities of medicolegal liability for radiology residents. www.ajronline.org/doi/10.2214/...

Before medical school, I never thought I would be jealous of a December trip to Chicago, but here I am with RSNA fomo.

One thing I love about living in NYC is that I can take my dog everywhere when I run errands

I absolutely adore the show Ted Lasso, but the way Ted’s couple’s therapist sabotages his marriage by violating every ethical code under the sun and the show just lets him get away with it makes the last season almost unwatchable for me.

Polio after hearing RFK was selected as HHS secretary.

Nobody: The new US Department of Health and Human Services:

Gotta take a little break. Cant be wasting banger posts on a platform that’s down.

30 states do not have laws requiring menstrual products to be given to incarcerated women and even ones that do will often give 2/month & force these women to buy them $13-$20 a pack while making $0.00 to 0.60/hr So I started the only org in the US to help 283,305 donated on the road to 1 MILLION

I can only assume the smog monster Hexxus from Fern Gully will be running the Environmental Protection Agency

It still amazes me that I can look at replies here and they are actually replies to the original post rather than bots posting completely unrelated videos. I had forgotten what that was like.

Me as I write “no acute intracranial abnormality” on my 25th straight CT

I now officially have no followers here then I ever had at the bad place and some of my favorite accounts still don't have many so we need to fix this! Here's a thread of amazing ppl y'all should be following!

Nothing says government efficiency like making an entirely new government department and having two co-chairs.

I cannot stress enough to the New York Times that I do not need a push alert every time Trump adds a lunatic to the cabinet.

I now realize I had been completely taking it for granted that we hadn’t had a trash medical take from Leana Wen in like 3 years

Me to myself waking up at 5am as a 32-year-old intern while my friends in business were making six figures and sleeping in until 8am.

trump will be the next reagan in the sense that in 30 years every time you notice some horrible defect in society you'll do some quick research and trace it back to trump

There was a paradigm shift for the worse when social network became social media. Blue Sky feels much more like a social network than any platform in the last 10 years.

Where are my #radiology people at? Come on, I know you’re here. We spend literally all day on the computer.

The only thing blue sky is missing now is the 5-10 DMs a day from bots asking me if I like adult video games.

If radiology ran the hospital

The vibe here is immaculate. Like Twitter circa 2012.

I heard someone today refer to inpatients as “innies” and outpatients as “outies” and I will henceforth be using that.
