Academics and scientists take note:
We are in the fight of our lives for education and freedom. Penn and UVA are losing that fight, in part because faculty were not unified behind their leaders.

The fight for science is the fight for universities. They are the same. 🧪

Never would have thought having a dog would help me with my communication skills with my patients. 😂

I rotate between gentle encouraging while doing bandage/suture/staple removal to the very stern DON'T TOUCH THAT voice.

It's surprisingly effective

you know you work in healthcare when a random coworker asks a legit question on whether or not a wound vac could be applied to the remains of someone's balls if there was treatment of Fournier's gangrene down there

my greatest customization with my phone was having a picture of my dog's nose that I could boop as a biometric read option

feels awkward at work being the only lesbo and apparently the Lesbian Ambassador™️

Nobody knew that a lesbian flag even existed (I had said something looked lesbian and had to explain the flag)

Accidentally laughed too hard and had to explain why at the term "scissoring"

thank you so much! I did it in steps, researching an inclusive gym and figuring out finances as well as reviews.

I find bigger tasks are much less intimidating when I break it down.

The first steps to ANYTHING new is hard. Hard, but worth it. And to just keep trying till something sticks❤️

And we men think we are all that as we obsessively and narcissistically pump our muscles up over in the gym

We men need to be far better partners in this marriage of LIFE

it's really annoying that to get more energy you need to expend energy with mental illness

got myself started with some classes at a gym that I really am loving

finally i have energy to do things

are women achieving more because they're forced to become adults and bear the weight of responsibility over everyone around them super early or is it school that magically just work better on women

we may never know 😔

Slick Southpaw @slicksouthpaw.bsky.social · May 21

absolutely, and it goes both ways!

once I finally got it across to my coworkers that they need to be direct with me (even if they think it's rude) about their wants and expectations at work instead of vague suggestions, it was so much easier for stuff to get accomplished during a shift.

ngl, I legit cried reading this

healing with PTSD, trauma, religious trauma, and other mental health struggles with family that doesn't really understand

I gotta remind myself. It's a process, a series, it's not just one thing

and it's not linear at all

…healing is more accurately conceived of as a series of actions, not one that fixes everything. A process. A dissertation. A multi-volume treatise.

Stevie and Brandon Perez could not stay awake any longer. They found two chairs in Mercy Hospital’s intensive care unit waiting room, a place they knew would be open, and they drifted off.
