“Women have been called queens for a very long time but the kingdom given to them isn’t worth ruling” Yup Sums things up nicely- so glad nothing has changed since the 1800s #DOSOMETHING #WomensRightsAreHumanRights #iamapersontoo

I wonder how many high powered men will have daughters/mistress in states with abortion laws who have a “flare” of rheumatoid and are proscribed a dose of methotrexate… Abortion has always been safe and available for the privileged and powerful #RoeVsWade #DOSOMETHING

I wonder if they would give two flying paperclips if it wasn’t @DGlaucomflecken …probably not since I’ve seen these clowns deny amputations as elective procedures in smokers…I would say people wonder why we hate insurance folks but no one wonders

You know that heart surgery is usually on non pregnant people right? My guess is he( despite his “credentials” ) has operated on / consulted on less than 10 pregnant women in his entire career

I guess I’ve learned more about how we as Americans value life from the pandemic then I ever could from women having access to healthcare #prolifeisprochoice #womendeservehealthcaretoo #RespectLife #womenarepeopletoo

Sorry @cdc your recent healthcare workers guidelines are just proving that I should never trust you #guidelinesbasedonfactsnoteconomics #forreal

Why is “working on my dad bod” prevalent in dating profiles No woman would say: slightly chubby and pretending to care so conspicuously

I keep hearing about #healthcareworkers who are sick from #covid and who refused the #vaccine . These are people I know and respect It brakes my heart and is the worse of all the #moralinjuries of the last two years Please .Please. Please get #vaccinated

But I stand on giants: And I will not smile Highly reccomend this book to any woman in STEM #womeninstem #womeninmedicine #womeninscience #iwillnotsmile #ilooklikeasurgeon #iamasurgeon

They attempt to break us Divide us Sexualize us Assault us Question us Our solidarity Our sanity “You know how they are” “Off her rocker” “That time of the month I guess” Each and every statement a barrage Against what we have accomplished: I can’t see beyond my vantage point 4/

And a man had to have stood behind the reveal of elements no doubt. Perhaps that’s why Pierre didn’t Suffer their effects? He had a shield . And Hilo’s awkward blonde? We have enough jokes yet for that I think. I stand on giants. But Time And time And time Again 4/

Those Unbathed Alexandrians likely Didn’t ask her to smile as they Tore her flesh apart and burned Her world. Perhaps they were more honest in intent Than that? A rose by any other name, correct? Rosy? The diminutive never claimed But the achievement was. 3/

Hypatia comes to mind, With her cone upon cone, But I wouldn’t wish her end. And so I struggle As new growth upon old. A vintage to be suspect at best. But am I not too an example ? The sirens song of diminishing numbers. The exception that proves the rule? 2/

I stand on giants But I see so little beyond my eye’s range. The horizon lumes forward But it’s vista, to me, is clouded. I would like to believe we are better: Better than Curie, than Franklin, than Doudna But I struggle in all my erudite knowledge To name another matriarch. 1/

I need more puppies and Christmas lights in my life : I’m assuming you do too #puppychristmas

I’ve been outraged from the start of this. I have also experienced some of the worst of this. I’m in a field with only 6% women: we deserve representation and a voice thelily.com/female-doctors-a… #MedBikini #ilooklikeavascularsurgeon

I’m tired. There’s a moment when you just have to acknowledge you don’t have any more in the well. I’ve reached that. Good night’s sleep will hopefully recharge. For all out there feeling that: you aren’t alone #MedTwitter #vascularsurgery #longmonth

Reading through my Twitter feed: it’s ok to say you’re tired as a doctor/nurse/emt . It’s ok to say you’re burned out. It’s ok to say you want to go to dinner . It’s ok to say you’re afraid.its ok to say you want a vacation...conflicting desires make us human...
