Popped up this week in Galveston, TX (a gulf coast town)…-

I’m in Kenya this week and all that’s on the news and radio is how the US is cutting off help - major concerns about millions of people who rely on these vital programs. So sad and embarrassing.

"Stop asking why schools don’t have bullet proof glass & metal detectors at all the doors. Ask why schools HAVE to. That’s the question that needs to be asked”

Looking for a good book? Just read (listened to) “The Four Winds” by Kristen Hannah. Exceptional like all her books but most importantly it made me understand a little more why the Trump messaging about migrants was so powerful. Sad to see this terrible history repeated.

There has never been a more important time than for all of us who care for kids to advocate for their health and futures. “Flood the zone” as encouraged by @annieandrewsmd.bsky.social #pedsurg ⬇️

A condensed message for the Blue Sky. Our kids need us now more than ever.

The Monarchs were out in full force today on my way to work.

Haha only rookie surgeons know you NEVER spend more time in the ER then is absolutely necessary. No “laying eyes” 👀🤣🤣

How can we be sure the bots and hateful people on X don’t follow over here? Is a screening process possible? @bsky.app

Trying to avoid the news but even from afar feels a lot like this is rolling in…

Looking for friends in pediatric surgery on this app - anyone around?
