    Just got an email stating there’s evidently a national shortage of blood. Seems like #Pride2021 would be a great time to drop the homophobic practice of denying blood donations from MSM, but what do I know, I’m just a doctor 🤷🏻‍♂️

    Going home for Christmas, I just found my physical chemistry 1-page “cheat sheet” we could bring into our final exam. I can’t believe I used to understand this?!

    I would like to admit, as a nephrologist, that I had my annual dose of ibuprofen today (after downing a glass of water) but dang did it make my headache better within 15 minutes

    I just remembered that as an intern I clinically diagnosed G6PD deficiency by asking about fava beans at 2 AM and I’m pretty sure my medical career peaked in that moment

    Today a surgeon stopped me in the hallway to say thank you for the detail in a note I’d written a week prior and I almost fainted in surprise

    My brother in law finally prompted me to get my car’s oil changed once he described it as car dialysis…my poor Subaru has been uremic!

    Was called a f*ggot walking home tonight after the fireworks (ostensibly for wearing pink shorts but unclear as I certainly did not stop to clarify) so glad to know homophobia is alive and well in middle America! 🇺🇸
