One more and we're back in the NBA Finals! Way to go guys! It's so fun watching this team grow up before our eyes. Huge win tonight. #ThunderUp #NBASky

I abhor medical society meetings in the Philippines. It's always unnecessarily long and winding. A complete waste of time.

Narratives are pushed by the bitter sector of sports called "sore losers." If you want your team to win, then that team has to be better. Whining about baseless stuff like "SGA free throw merchant" is a symptom of social media stupidity creeping into sports. #ThunderUp

I celebrate the wins of Kiko and Bam. Still, I remain skeptical about this "pink ripple." In some respects, the Marcos machinery worked to our advantage. It's not hard to see what sort of alliances may come just to prevent another Duterte from rising to the presidency. #PhElections

Looking at all the barriers for health workers — in serving patients, teaching, doing research, providing for a family — it's no wonder being in the Philippines can be quite tiring.

There is a method to the madness that is #PrimaryCare. Sure, we cover the same issues perennially...but it is in doing so that we gain insight, or use the time to build relationships and trust with our #patients, at their pace. #neverdull #pediatrics #graphicmedicine

Quite symptomatic of a sick, self-centered society. Nothing here says that they won't vote for another wretched lying egotistical maniac who fits their 'us vs. them' world view. In the Philippines, we call the same kind of people three letters: DDS.

There's a respected physician in the Philippines who posted a long essay expressing support to Duterte. That person's justification? Because Duterte is exactly what the Filipino people want. What? I think socmed algorithms are really powerful motivators to posting shit opinions in public.

Rodrigo Duterte has been arrested last night and sent to the Hague. We still have a long way to go before we can truly heal as a nation. The damage that his regime caused to our democracy is still evident. Too many blind followers Too many blind believers Too many fooled by his false bravado.

39 years ago, the Philippines kicked out Ferdinand Marcos Sr., a dictator, in what was dubbed as a 'bloodless revolution.' 2025 we are still at the mercy of Dutertismo and Marcos Jr.'s campaign to rehabilitate their name. We're called the soc med capital of the world. Look where it got us.

One of the unexpected (?) effects of the US's far right turn is that it threw into sharp relief what it means to elect such a government, especially for Germany. It also makes the center-right look good with Merz saying stuff sane people would expect to hear from sane politicians. Let's see.

I think what I find so repellent about the far-right is the sheer nihilism at its core. For all the talk of culture and identity, they are just flimsy masks strapped over, in Arendt's words "the intoxication of destruction as an actual experience, dreaming the stupid dream of producing the void.”

Been saying this to the wait and see liberals in Reddit. There is such a thing as too late. When a society becomes superficially democratic, and simple, everyday corruption and inefficiency is deemed as disgusting, abhorrent, but normal and can be ignored if you benefit from it.

Talking to pts about vaccine boosters is so revealing. The same pts who faithfully update their flu shot are dead set against COVID boosters, even when I explain that both viruses mutate and this is why we develop new boosters. I'm so interested in this disparity. Clearly a health comms issue.

This type of ignorance and cognitive dissonance takes years to take root and grow. I can't imagine how the democrats can't seem to do anything about Trump and his minions. But I also have an inkling why. It's because the American people have lost their values. And it didn't happen overnight.

This.

A quote from the writer AR Moxon from 2017. He wrote:

"Historians have a word for Germans who joined the Nazi party, not because they hated Jews, but out of a hope for restored patriotism, or a sense of economic anxiety, or a hope to preserve their religious values, or dislike of their opponents, or raw political opportunism, or convenience, or ignorance, or greed. That word is "Nazi." Nobody cares about their motives anymore. They joined what they joined. They lent their support and their moral approval. And, in so doing, they bound themselves to everything that came after.
Who cares any more what particular knot they used in the binding?"

A negative trial for palliative care interventions in the ED – 1) Are ED encounters truly a fertile moment for interventions outside our scope, as many seem to think? 2) Or, is it that "training", "champions", and "alerts" aren't a replacement for resources? #medsky jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

1) Comparative politics is the lesser sub-field in political science next to American politics. We publish fewer papers in prestigious journals b/c people think studying politics in Tanzania isn't as relevant 🤷. But when the "unprecedented" happens, you need to look outside the US for answers... 🕵️
