Imagine your average 3rd grader. Everyday the school bully takes his lunch money. And everyday this 8 year old tells the teacher the bully took his lunch money, but she never sees it happen and the rest of the class says nothing as this poor kid is bullied everyday. 1/4

The year is 2006.

I’m a medicine resident rotating through the ER. Together with a surgical resident and ER attending, I am responsible for working up patients and assigning admissions.

It’s the night shift.

I don’t know it yet, but my life is about to change, forever. 1/

October 17, 2020 — Today I woke up 23 years old and published in The New York Times. Nothing beats seeing the culmination of all your hard work on the morning of your birthday. Shout out to all the Black women grinding in silence and out loud.

Link is in my bio! @nytimes

Don't code switch around anybody. We off that.
Be professional, yes but don't hide yourself.

[Eddie S. Glaude Jr. @esglaude]

Given what has been happening on my twitter feed all day, let me be clear: I will not be bullied into silence by anyone. No matter what your politics may be or what your account of how we got into this mess might suggest about me.

*shaking and slamming the table in agreement* EXACTLY THIS. the limitless, unfettered, uncorrected, unreformable, incorrigible, defanged-by-prosecutors-and-courts reach of police power should make everyone nauseous.

“Youve changed” bro i just went through the step 1 subreddit, i have imposter syndrome now

[petit marronage @aisha1908]

if none of the people around you correct you and tell you when you’re wrong, those people don’t love you - they love who they get to be when they’re around you.

I worked with a medical student in the OR the other day. After the case, he thanked the patient for allowing him to be a part of her care.

It was a friendly reminder that we are not entitled to our patients bodies.

[Esther Choo, MD MPH @choo_ek]

I was taking care of a patient the other day who was very seriously injured. And I stepped out to talk to his family briefly and give them an update. For context, he was Black. I told them what was going on quickly and asked if they had any questions. And this is what they said.

[EC. MD, MPH (they/them) @doctorejc]

I did it. I was brave and advocated for myself and said I wouldn’t use a women’s locker room at the hospital. #transinmedicine #queermedtwitter 🏳️‍🌈

If you've found space in your heart for empathy for Kanye, that's your prerogative. However, his mental illness ain't give him his bad politics...... that being said I need some Abilify and Lithium STAT
