This is a well-documented pattern in medical research and reflects systemic gender bias in pain assessment and treatment.👇

RFK Jr. fired all of the legitimate scientific experts on the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices and replaced them with unqualified political appointees. A judge just ruled that the new members were not appropriately appointed, so ACIP cannot meet this week to spread more misinformation.

Full glam for democracy. Being a Minnesotan under occupation is stressful. Doing my best to stay encouraged.

I have increased my course load this summer so I may serve my community in Minnesota. We are traumatized by the tyranny of ICE, yet we are resilient.

I’m not editing this reflection for Bluesky. I largely have had women sponsors, unless every single one I asked said no. #sobersky

When you repeatedly apply steps 4-9 over time when prompted by anxiety, inability to get along with others, strife… You get into the Flow of accepting and allowing, no longer held back by the weight of old ideas. Free to choose again. And again. #sobersky

Fall 1991. Two years sober. Today, 36 years. I feel so grateful to my former self for beginning the daily practices of recovery which continue every day. I enjoy the benefits of serenity, a calm quiet mind, true connection with others, freedom, acceptance and robust vitality. #sobersky

Walking 4 miles today after weight training because tomorrow snow is in the forecast. The birds are flirting with each other. They also like my post workout curly hair. Keep the promises you make to yourself. #RecoveryPosse

Turns out, based on the blood tests, I have no immunity whatsoever to measles. So I’ll need another MMR as soon as possible. I did not have that on my BINGO card for March. I’d rather find out this way. You might want to get your titers checked depending on various internal and external factors.

We might call it grit, a universal capacity which we all share. Self examination, prayer and meditation connects us to the Truth of who we are and what we are capable of. Any person can fight the battle for just one day. We got this. #Activate #RecoveryPosse #Sobersky

I printed out my required vaccination form for graduate school for my physician to fill out. We will check for measles titers in advance of field placement. And now, a 4 mile walk to look for signs of new growth. this chapter is built on a foundation of care. #Dreams #Nottooold #Nevertoolate

Helpful primer on insurance industry, particularly medications. Do your research. You can often find less expensive meds without using insurance. Not just Cost Plus Drugs. GoodRX, Costco plans, etc.

Attune to the pulse of your inner world through daily self examination, prayer and meditation. This effort over time creates a trustworthy, contented person. There are no quick fixes. #RevoveryPosse #Sobersky

When I was 19, the “expert” said the chances of my staying sober a year were less than 1%. I said, “Why not me? Why can’t I be in the less than 1%?” Then, I fired him & placed myself in the hands of those who live one day at a time. Those days add up to a lifetime. #RecoveryPosse #Sobersky

A delusional twist on the Golden Rule. Scorpions are going to sting. Years ago, my dear mentor said, “What is a miracle like you doing in a room with someone like that?” I stammered. “You wanted to be right and so exposed yourself to being hurt.” I no longer carry scorpions. #RecoveryPosse #Sobersky

Began this day chatting with my spiritual advisor. I recommend finding a person who scares you a little in ways you wish to move in the world, humbly ask them for guidance and their time and do as they suggest. All of my victories are shared. #RecoveryPosse #Sobersky
