If I end up leaving this hospital system when they boot all their in house travelers in April, I’m writing an open letter to the C suites who made this decision and absolutely blasting them for shame. Gonna print copies at work and put them in patient belonging bags and give them to family members

Two celeb deaths, O’Hara and Van Der Beek, by all accounts wonderful people, and Chadwick Bosman, years ago, all caught by colorectal cancer. Get your screenings. Had mine, last year, all clear and good for another ten years.

Been processing the news that Catherine O'Hara passed away from complications from something I know oh so well, Rectal Cancer..and just learned that James Vanderbeek has also passed away from this shitty disease. Please don't put off your colonoscopy. 💙

And RIP to the most famous Moxon, James Vanderbeek.

Hell yeah, go unions

Summer might be a few months away, but we're already looking for lifeguards to keep our pools and beaches safe for all New Yorkers.  You have until February 28th to sign up to become a city lifeguard for this summer. Go to nyc.gov/parks/lifeguard for more info.

This website has the juice.

Just a pharmacist getting vancomycin discontinued

If your medical guidelines don’t have a pharmacist co-author then what’s the point?

This asshole was driving drunk with both his kids in the car. He resisted arrest and threatened to have the arresting officer deported, but magically all charges were dropped except DWI. He got probation, and now he’s bitching about that because it precludes him going back to work at ICE.

Battling the American Healthcare System makes you braver than the troops and probably more fucking depressed

Chomp, just now: “…I was a baby in mummy’s tummy” Me: “that’s right, you were!” Chomp: “I would like to go back in please”

Replaced my Ring with a Eufy and generally they both work about the same. The main differences are: 1. I'M NOT SENDING STUFF TO THE COPS 2. I'M NOT DRAINING MY BANK ACCOUNT TO BEZOS EVERY MONTH Video is stored locally on a memory card. No hub or central storage needed.

Pam Bondi laughing about the Epstein Files in the same way someone laughs at a video of a person tripping and falling into a pool is enough to make me black out from rage

Spike’s Grandma handed down some blankets for him. Here he is modeling the new ones.

VG contacted her and she says she "would like to remain anonymous" but that she would like very much too "congratulate Lægreid's [her ex] team mate Johan-Olav Botn with the gold medal". That is turning the knife and I am all for it! bsky.app/profile/eivi...

I know England has a reputation and all but it has been raining for over forty days straight and that’s not only extremely unusual, I am running out of biblical jokes

It’s infuriating seeing fellow nurses bash anti-ICE positions from our own orgs/unions. Nursing IS political. You can’t claim to provide compassionate, equitable care for everyone while ignoring when people are being treated cruelly and unfairly. Our patients — and our profession — deserve better.

I’m thinking about where I want to go on vacation this year and I really just want to focus on places where I could hang out with cats I’ve met on BlueSky.

The shutdown is lifted without explanation. The key message is confirmed.

The ludicrous idea pushed by the ultraconservatives & the far-right that the "left" voices are dominating the media and social media has been disproved by both research and reality. If anything, these days, even most center/center-left and even left outlets push ~2 right opinions for every left one.

"Maybe all we do is frustrate," Star said. "Give someone one more day with their daughter or their dad. "But if you lost your dad, or you lost your daughter, you would give anything to have one more day with them. And that’s what we can do.” My latest for Slate

The @ligo.org and @egovirgo.bsky.social collaborations officially announced the first direct detection of gravitational waves #OTD in 2016. Hard to believe we are ten (ten!) years into the gravitational wave era of astronomy and astrophysics. A remarkable tool for understanding our Universe. 🧪 🔭 ⚛️

I maintain that pharmacy and medical students should be made to take an iron supplement twice daily and a calcium supplement three times daily just to see what that feels like. Unethical? Yes. Educational? YES. #RxSky #MedSky

My two cents: If the government actually wanted effective, large-scale declassification of docs in the public interest, it would empower the National Declassification Center (housed at the National Archives) to declassify OTHER agency records, like those that belong to the CIA, FBI etc.

some of these people would call anything a person if you taught it to talk like an HR department

The Ukrainian refugee migration — a larger wave in Chicago than the Venezuelan "migrant crisis" — saw better outcomes because, for the most part, the refugees had sponsors for housing and they were given work permits. The Venezuelans, for the most part: no housing sponsors & no work permits.

Love it when my health insurance provider e-mails me that my prescription costs will go down with this one cool trick when the one cool trick was supposed to be enrolling in health insurance

Things I have consumed recently! The film Flowers of Shanghai (directed by Hou Hsiao-hsien) This continued my quest to see every film on the Sight & Sound Greatest Films of All Time Top 250 list. (Only 17 to go!) Beautiful and slow. Tony Leung might be the best actor in film history.

PMQs reverting back to its theatrical, inconsequential norm after a brief glimpse of forcing actual accountability last week.

"While some ambassadors retiring in disgrace get tens of thousands of pounds in pay off..." Tom Tugendhat might also want to raise the case of Liz Truss who gets £115,000 a year for life from the taxpayer to fund her office and secretarial costs as a former PM. An office she held for 49 days. #pmqs
