Just a quick one about correct use of Language when referring to scarring... Call it a scar or a difference, the word DEFORMED isn't very pleasant and insinuates I am half formed/incorrectly formed, I'm not incorrect, just a bit different ☺️ Big love ❤️❤️ @FaceEquality

Therapist: You said you were here to work on your problems. What would those be? Me: I don't have a grand personal library with one of those rolling ladders or a hidden passageway behind one of the bookshelves.

It’s helpful to zoom out & determine which balls are plastic, & which ones are glass. When you are IN it, it feels like all the balls are glass but most of the time, it’s only actually a few. I’ve let several plastic balls drop by just deciding that they’re not gonna happen.
Dropping balls left and right….behind on so much….feel like I’m letting everyone down. I’m overcommitted, but also everything just feels hard right now.

I’m going to post this every time I see an accidental childhood death: If everyone is watching, no one is watching. Assign a watcher. Make it one person’s responsibility. Make it their responsibility to hand off that responsibility. Always. #pedsICU #pediatrics

“If you’re happy, have found love, are surrounded by good people, doing what you like, and giving back to others, that’s success. Selling your soul for a buck is not worth the real price you pay." —the inimitable Iris Apfel. Rest in peace.

Can we PLEASE remove the words “crime of passion” from our lexicon??? It deliberately minimises extreme violence while legitimising it like it’s a fucking Mills & Boon pulp. Most of us don’t go on murder sprees when our hearts get broken. Stop fucking romanticising psychopathy.

“women” instead of “girls” “people” instead of “children” “dead” instead of “killed” “conflict” instead of “genocide” “hamas” instead of “palestine” media is doing everything in their power to downplay what israel is doing to palestine

No, actually, I do not consider the heritage listing on your roller coaster to be a selling point.

This is a lovely story of discovery ⬇️
Last January, I noticed something peculiar in my 2yo’s bedroom that - after a year of obsessive reporting - led me to a profound cosmic revelation about what’s even possible in our universe. A 🧵.

Bored in the hospital so I put all my symptoms into ChatGPT & asked it to list the most likely dx’s in order. Of course, anxiety was at the top of the list. So I ran it again but as a male pt, and to absolutely no ones surprise, anxiety wasn’t even ON the list of possible dx’s 🙃
