Any newly minted doctors out there -- working as a physician less than 5 years? I'd like to talk to you about the experience for an article at Medscape. Let me know! Pls RT or let your colleagues know. :)

Tonight I filled out benefits forms. Feeling incredulity and despair... but also a little inspiration? #makeitbetter

Nearly half-way thru @Abby_the_IA's STUCK and it's every bit as good as promised. Another book I should buy in bulk and give to clients. #thankful #IA #diagram

I (repeatedly) find it super useful to ask: What would happen if we didn't do that?

Here's a 1-minute video showing--in the words of visualization hero @EdwardTufte--the "compared to what" factor for today's amazing @NASAWebb image. Thanks to the @WWTelescope for making this possible, and @ADavidWeigel. I only wish @NASA and @POTUS had shown the image this way!

Today is day 185 of the year, and the U.S. has already experienced at least 309 mass shootings so far. At least 309 in just over 26 weeks. This averages out to more than 11 a week.

I don’t think anyone “has a right to” drinking water, as it’s not literally enumerated in the constitution. Those who disagree can simply travel to other states that have public fountains or troughs from which to drink.

It could've used more color, some purple potatoes or heirloom carrots maybe... With pepper flakes on top, it'll be soothing (I hope).

I can't think of what else to do so I'm making soup. And I imagine you don't care, but the soup will be nourishing anyway.

And, TBH, we must hold friends and family accountable if they support politicians who don't advocate for gun control.

Ignoring gun violence, or deaths from the spread of a virus, are conscious policy choices Those in power keep gaslighting us that nothing can be done The successful policies of other countries show that these are lies We must hold the powerful accountable for facilitating harm

#iac22 is wrapping up. This was so much more engaging than other virtual conferences. It was so great to reconnect with the community. Huge thanks to the cochairs (@emalone, @uxdlibrarian, Ren Pope) and volunteers who made this happen! ❤️

The loss of old friends is inevitable, and still so very sad.
