vasopressin challenge: this group evaluated 1U bolus of vasopressin to evaluate patient responsiveness I love this for a few reasons: [1] allows vaso to have rapid onset (rather than taking 30-60 min to build up) [2] we can get a sense of whether the vaso is helping 🧵 1/5 #EMIMCC

So many disasters in so many places. Some evidently human caused (Ukraine, Gaza), some less evidently but still directly (Wildfires, extreme weather events). How I wish we had leaders who took effective action to stop human made disasters like Climate Change or War - but we don’t 👇🏼

When we evacuated from a climate catastrophe last year I thought about how the imperial core is becoming increasingly more hostile to refugees even as more people in the imperial core become refugees themselves, and how “Crime” propaganda is deployed to fight the natural human inclination to help!

I have updated the Academic Workload Tracker for 2025. I strongly encourage all academics to track how long you actually work, and at what tasks. It's a crucial way to counter the deliberate wage-theft of obfuscatory university workload models. docs.google.com/spreadsheets...
