“The Court cannot fathom discrimination more direct than the plain pronouncement of a policy resting on the premise that the group to which the policy is directed does not exist,” Judge Hurson wrote. #gendersky

IDK why federal employees are so confused about what to do or not do about Elon Musk’s email. He’s not your boss so ignore it. Easy. 👏👏👏👏

Three updates: 1. The Justice Department has deleted a database tracking federal police misconduct. The database was first proposed in 2020 following the police killing of George Floyd.

What does this person not understand about biology? It’s like we are all being forced into a Creationist view. #gender #chaplaincy

One of the coolest things about working and studying at a University medical center is the access to the library and research. #gradschool #bioethics #urmc #chaplaincy

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

Breaking News: Two top officials at the U.S. Agency for International Development are said to have been put on leave after refusing to give representatives of Elon Musk access to a secure area.

So the US gov travel passport page is down. Guess they are updating those too.

Nice review! Will be checking this out. #chaplaincy #Medsky #Hapc #Prayer

This needs to be read in its entirety to understand the vast scope of this order. What will this mean to my own institution that provides gender affirming care to pediatrics? What will this mean for youth who are already receiving treatment? #bioethics #Gendersky #pediatrics #medsky #transrights

My heart hurts.

A full day of patient and caregiver visits followed by clinical bioethics class. I’m tired and happy. Husband made steak salad for dinner. I made Manhattans #chaplaincy #neuropalliative #bioethics #marriage

My brain is literally gobsmacked. There is not enough coffee to help me understand. #research #Politics #wtaf

#Quakers. They know what’s up.

Terrifying. I just filled out a survey about #DEI and how students feel about it. Oh dear, I am very nervous about how #URMC will deal with it.

Preach.

Observations from today: At 52, getting my period just seems performative. high winds and I walk my dogs with a double leash.I thought the resonance might vibrate us off the sidewalk. Having admin time is amazing! Finished almost a whole project done I haven’t been able to work on since summer.

My WTAF post of the day. Or at least the first one. #publichealth #politics #medsky

Turned in my first case review paper. 🤞 Also officially started my full time chaplaincy position that I’ve been per diem at for almost three years. Pretty good for a Monday. #bioethics #graduateschool #chaplaincy

😂🤔❤️ finally!!

Trump seems to have no understanding of this. His misplaced idea of relying on merit alone is a huge step backwards for everyone. #whitesupremacy #chaplaincy #politics #dei

“It’s especially egregious that this order defines ‘sex’ as starting ‘at conception,’ which is impossible,” says Ash Lazarus Orr, press relations manager at Advocates for Trans Equality. “ #gendersky #scienceisreal #bioethics

So much for #publichealth in the US. How can this even happen? Unethical like so many other things that have happened this week.

I saw my therapist today and she said she has found herself wearing black everyday this week. #Mood.

I promised myself I would try to titrate the information so I don't get overwhelmed but this is a huge #HealthEquity threat. www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/1/...

Best thing I saw all week. Could have done without Melania’s eye rolling though.

Absolutely abhorrent. Trump is ordering all federal employees in diversity, equity and inclusion roles placed on paid leave by Wednesday evening. #diversity #trumpclowncar #humanrights #discrimination #whitesupremacy #racism #DEI

"A recent @wsj.com article said #NIH pick Bhattacharya is considering how to link 'academic freedom' on college campuses to #NIH grants, tho it’s not clear how he would measure that or implement such a change." #IDsky #MedSky #CanSky www.propublica.org/article/nih-...

WTAF? 😱 #publichealth

Something cute to enjoy in the midst of chaos. #adoptdontshop #cats #dogs

WHO comments on United States announcement of intent to withdraw bit.ly/4hrbeJ7

Helpful!

Thought of the day: It’s becoming harder and harder to live by your morals & values in this world. Yet what is life’s meaning if you don’t preserve the integrity of what shapes your essence? But let’s remember and remind each other, we still have each other and there’s still a lot of good around….

Kind of relieved that today’s first class of the semester is bioethics and not political ethics. It’d not even 8am and I am morally exhausted.

Go Bills! #billsmafia
