I think we should let him put his name on anything he wants to. As long as he puts his dear friend Jeffrey Epstein’s name on it too. The Trump-Epstein John F. Kennedy Center for the Arts.

@theduncanmackay.bsky.social I just passed my copy of Echolands to my classics-loving daughter (22YO). Felt momentous.

Women are <5% of interventional cardiologists in the US. It's not a pipeline issue, a systems issue. WECARE shows women love the field but face pay gaps, limited parental support & cultural barriers. Mentorship is critical. Time to redesign the system. www.ajconline.org/ar... #CardioSky

Individual Experiences

Career Entry & Negotiation
"People I looked up to told me this field's not meant for a little white girl like myself."

Motherhood & Institutional Gaps
"You could feel the shift after maternity leave. Suddenly there's this quiet assumption that you're less available, less ambitious."

Resilience & Advocacy
"I'm passionate about it. I knew what I was getting myself into and didn't let others' concerns be obstacles."

Mentorship & Support Systems
"I had phenomenal mentors (...). I ended up doing a CHIP fellowship because of them."

Bias & Representation
"I had clinic staff tell patients that I'm a female doctor that does just diagnostic Cath - no stents."

Pathways to Reform
Inclusive Culture, Mentorship & Leadership
Skill Advancement
Systemic Accountability
Standardized Family-Supportive Policies & Career Flexibility
Transparent Compensation, Hiring & Promotion

In January 2028 I’d like the new president’s first act be to tear down the Epstein Ballroom. It’ll be symbolic of the undoing of Trump’s already disastrous second term that will take them the entire 4 years of their presidency.

How long can airports continue to operate at all without paying TSA agents? I doubt those folks had that much saved up. GOP is going to have to stand up to Trump on this one.

I love that ChatGPT now allows people like me to bring truly terrible jokes to life.

one-panel cartoon with the caption "Your mom is so redneck, she thinks Mesopotamians is a really large quantity of Potamians." The drawing features a lot of bronze-age Mesopotamians looking uncomfortable in a small, crowded room.

The US Military is still loyal to the constitution ... so Trump had to create his own army of brownshirts who will do his bidding in spite of the law, in spite of the courts, and in spite of any human decency. ICE has to go - forever.

Bryan Vartabedian (aka "Doctor V") has been thinking and writing about physician influence for a long time. His recent blog post (open.substack.com/pub/33charts...) is a great read - and yet another argument for why industry needs to be more careful and detailed than ever in finding the TRUE KOLs.

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions "Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

The answer to this seemingly reasonable point is obvious: Republican leaders, including the president, actively incite, praise, and reward violence. And while some online leftists might do the same, Democratic leaders do not. It's a fundamental asymmetry that French is obscuring.
