"This miserable political moment will end when especially Christian politicians forsake cruelty for compassion and realize that we shall know Christians in politics not by their stridency and ideology, but by their integrity and love, inc. their love for, as Talarico put it, “all of our neighbors.'”
I think @davidfrenchjag.bsky.social and I would disagree on many lower-level policies, but I completely agree with his point that having Christian politicians espouse actual Christian values is sorely what the US needs now as a way out of our division.

This is one of my favorite blogs to share with trainees. People love objective measures, no matter how crappy they actually perform. Drives me nuts.
Feel like all we really know about PE is a/c alone for the not sick, lytics for the really sick, and for everyone else just…use your best judgment (unless your judgment tells you CDT).
Things are starting to wake up 🌱
I think we are making PE more complicated than it needs to be.
My life is happy and full and I feel so very blessed.
Last night we went to visit my new niece. Today I got to sit in a few hours of faculty development on teaching. This evening I started two trays of seeds while my kid played on the swingset and my husband baked focaccia and the cats meowed through the screen at the birds.
Fresh blog: STRATIFY trial for PE
Peripheral tPA infusion is EQUALLY EFFECTIVE as compared to ultrasound-assisted thrombolysis
Catheter-directed thrombolysis for PE is dead
We can get the same benefits with peripheral tPA infusions (w/o procedural costs & complications)... #1/2 #EMIMCC
This is the quick version of what I’ve been struggling to find the nicest words for. I think it’s not your fault though, it’s a function of how murky decision making in PE is currently. And the recent Circulation guideline did nothing to simplify it.
*baby nieces and nephews though swimming in a bay makes sense too
Revamping our SAT/SBT protocols to be more aggressive as our extubation failure rates are very low, and seems like a good time to reassess these parts of the protocol as well.
Given the literature on vent mechanics and cuff leaks as poor extubation success predictors for allcomers, should routine measurement of these things be built into pre-extubation workflows for RTs? Or should they be optional, and done only when requested/felt to be necessary?

My two brothers have had 3 babies in under a year. We just had to postpone the first birthday party for his sister’s birth. I am swimming in bay nieces and nephews and it’s the best thing ever.
PERT activation worksheet 😁
trying to design a one-page sheet to collect info & guide the process
this is what I've got so far, please provide constructive feedback
#EMIMCC
So is the person who activates the call collecting this information? Or the person who responds?
We have been dealing with PERT processes for the last year and I currently have a lot of feelings lol.
Which of your patients is PERT activated for and who is responding?
The definition of a cozy mystery. I’ve got the next two already waiting on deck!
CD, cassette, and vinyl!
I got this in preparation for Sturgill Simpson’s physical only album release and I am so happy. We used to record ourselves on tape at my grandma’s and this one records, too.
WV governor announced a data center coming to the eastern panhandle.
It will sit on 540 acres and create…125 jobs.
0.23 jobs created per acre by this monstrosity. Not to mention how bad it is for the environment, the economy, and literally for our brains and souls as humans.
So sad to see this.
💯
Also republicans should stop pretending like they actually care about girls’ sports.
A partner actually came up to me in clinic yesterday and said they were really disappointed in the democrats for not standing up for the hockey team, and they thought it was shameful. He regretted saying it shortly after I am sure because I was not in the mood.
Why do I have to pretend that I'm going to print something in order to save it as a PDF. Why do I have to engage in a little ruse.
You must be such a proud mom and grandma (mamaw? Nana? Gigi?). 🥹💕
This one hits hard.
So NJ lawmakers wrote a bill to rein in ICE.
And this is what they called it.
