- Sir, we are all trapped in this tin can together; dinner is over and done, lights are down, there’s 7 hours left of this night flight, and I very politely informed you I’m putting my seat back to sleep so roll your eyes and harrumph all you want, I am tired and have noise canceling headphones.

- Left for the airport and made it to my building elevator before realizing I was still in my fuzzy house slippers. Now I’m at the gate in appropriate footwear and looking forward to a nice flight with a good book by @dj-acid-reflux.bsky.social A bientôt la France!
- Feeling myself because a medically complex pt’s mom was like “only vascular access team can start an IV on my child, unless the ED nurse who is in her 30s, wears a fanny pack and goes to Europe a lot is here.” and everyone was like oh yeah that’s Naïna.

- There should be an option for calling out from work when your cat is being *too cute*
- I’m not superstitious BUT I am also packing my lucky Seahawks sweatshirt, that has gone unwashed since I wore it to the post season SF game, in my carry on so there’s no chance it gets lost on my way to France. Now, I just have to find a good way to watch the Superbowl in France. Go Hawks!

- I’m glad that attorney spoke up. I’ve seen comments from atop high horses saying she can always quit, and perhaps she will, and if she does I hope she can find better work, but also, if all the good people quit… who is left?
- NEW: A government attorney who was detailed to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Minnesota is no longer on that detail after telling a judge “this job sucks” and asking to be held in contempt so she could get 24 hours of sleep: www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...
- On my lunch, after 4 hours triaging a packed lobby full of sick kids, mentally preparing to go back to a packed ED full of sick kids, repeating over and over “just 2 shifts until a 2 week vacation vacation, just 2 shifts until a 2 week vacation..”

- Read this thread. It just gets greater and greater.
- Following this San Mateo Council meeting thread as it echos Seattle where many locals speak up and say “this is what we want/need” a few weirdos/special interests say “nobody wants this” and the council goes “what we’ve tried in the past hasn’t worked, let’s try the same thing but somehow worse.”
- « The charity says it currently provides at least 20% of hospital beds in the territory and operates around 20 health centers. In 2025 alone, it carried out more than 800,000 medical consultations and more than 10,000 infant deliveries, and it also provides drinking water. »
