My eagle eye immediately picked up on Detroit at the beginning of this week’s #Lanterns. @damonlindelof.bsky.social!

In times of stress, my go-to move is to get a new plant. Costco had a two-pack deal on my dream plant — these beautiful variegated monsteras… for $29.99!! Costco always delivers in a time of need.

As an ER charge nurse, at least 40 percent of my job is apologizing for things that are not in my control—usually it's wait times that contribute to boarding, etc.

Happy #EmergencyNursesWeek to my fellow ER badasses who keep showing up through rain or shine, full moon, or code brown (and sometimes all of the above 💩). I wrote this three years ago and still stand by it, especially as more is asked of us. “We’ll figure it out,” but more people need to listen.

Dear @shutdownfullcast.bsky.social, Since you’ll already be in Ann Arbor that weekend, please consider this the Internet’s Only College Podcast’s official wedding invitation to the world’s slowest RPO. Sincerely, Coach Kevin & Coach @jessmillarmd.medsky.social jessica-and-kevin2025.minted.us

*takes a deep breath* It’s the guns. It’s the guns. It’s the guns. It’s the guns. Trying to turn this tragedy into "the left hates prayer" tactic does not change the fact that the lives lost to gun violence are avoidable, & the GOP has done nothing. Sincerely, Your friendly neighborhood ER nurse

The conspiracy garbage spewed by RFK Jr. and other “wellness” influencers is now turning into real policy, and among other things — stealing focus from the actual inequities that affect social determinants of health in our communities.

If you’re wondering why so many of us in healthcare feel more unsafe than ever, look at the avoidable tragedies at places like Emory. The same people who fanned the flames of baseless conspiracy theories now hold the matches — and they don’t give a damn who or what burns next.

I saw Hanif at an event in Ann Arbor this past spring, and hearing him talk about basketball, music, and humanity, among many other subjects, was just incredible. He even stayed after the venue closed to sign books outside for attendees.

Today was a great first clinical day for Michigan State’s Clinical Nurse Specialist master's program, specifically in the Trauma-Burn ICU. Looking forward to a semester of learning from an excellent CNS and unit staff!

So @jessmillarmd.medsky.social and I did something yesterday: welcomed a four-legged friend into our family! Meet Ollie, an Australian shepherd mix! He’s calm but playful & loves his stuffed elephant. Thank you to the wonderful people at Huron Valley Humane Society for bringing Ollie into our lives!

From day one to ten years in—through countless IVs, Zofrans, triages, EKGs, and shifts across multiple ERs—I’m still very proud to be a nurse. Now more than ever, patients and healthcare workers deserve safety and dignity in every care setting. I’ll continue to advocate for both. #NursesWeek

Caught up on #ThePitt. As an ER charge nurse, I know that mass casualty events are a constant, avoidable reality. Hopefully the show illustrates to even one person the physical and emotional damage from gun violence and moves them to vote for a safer reality for all of us. @everytown.bsky.social

While the current times are exceptionally shitty, listening to the brilliant Hanif Abdurraqib speak on so many topics last night here in Ann Arbor was incredibly inspiring.

@sheaserrano.bsky.social @netw3rk.bsky.social re: the last episode of the pod. I was at the DET/OKC game, and you could feel the entire arena wince with pain with every SGA make — even when defended well. Also, easily the loudest “ref you suck” chant I’ve ever heard. youtu.be/s0zL0BfjhS0?...

If it wasn't obvious how tired I am of being off on medical leave, I was the first one here for a patient safety week grand rounds presentation/panel on Sepsis & patient mortality in hospitals. Looking forward to it!

Happy Tłusty Czwartek! It's wonderful to be able to get pączki from New Palace in Hamtramck while living here in Ann Arbor; it makes me feel really at home. My late grandparents used to host all-day Pączki Parties on this day, and they were always so much fun.

One of @detroitcityfc.bsky.social’s alternative kits for the upcoming season is a nod to the teal era Detroit Pistons. Good lord, I need one. 😮‍💨🔥

After getting rid of the infested soil, cutting off dead leaves — look at these healthy roots after a cleaning!
