I'm a left-wing Jew. I've never been to Israel. I've abhorred Netanyahu for years. I've always wanted peace to prevail. And here's how 7/10, yhe war, and the way "peace protestors" have changed the way I see things permanently....

With antisemitism on the rise globally, it’s crucial for the Jewish community to know they’re not fighting alone. Retweet this video with #StandUptoJewishHate to show your support.

@TrankiemTrauma Having to dissect tough gallbladders yourself isn’t conducive to wellness either.

@rbarbosa91 It’s my understanding that OBGYN uses a Keith for subcuticular skin closures. My jaw about dropped when I saw this after being called to help with a difficult c-section. I asked a friend who’s also an OB and she said she uses it too.

@AndyDentPerth @Pathology_747 @BrownHospMed @Radiopaedia I’m fairly certain the one I had recently was a front passenger. Huge rent in the diaphragm. Cool case.

@TrankiemTrauma @GUH_WHCSurgRes These are awesome. I love them all! Do they make pins?

[Danny Trejo @officialDannyT]

Danny Trejo stands with the Jewish community. Los Angeles is a place that people should come together. L'chaim!

@Kellie_Martin Happy belated!! Pumpkin is adorable!

[Dan Rather @DanRather]

Everyone must stand up and speak out against antisemitism. Silence is not an option. The bigger the platform for the antisemitic speech, the more forcefully it must be condemned.

[Malynda Hale @MalyndaHale]

Stop telling Jewish people to get over what Kanye said and that he’s mentally ill and not serious. Stop telling Black people his t-shirt was a joke. Antisemitism is real. Anti-Blackness is real. Words matter. Words are what start unwarranted hate towards people.

@DShadowgazer Scrubs, ancef, friends. Does this mean I get friends now?

[Lauren Baumgarten, MD @baumie83]

@AshleyGWinter I honestly believe that this needs to be taught in sex ed. And, that things that go in butts need wide bases.

I love my trauma and ICU family.

One minute you can be discussing amantadine in TBI patients, then you’re arguing over whether a kolache is a pastry, then everyone available drops everything to help out a dying patient.

My peeps.
