Hello! I’m the reporter who has been tracking citizens detained by immigration agents. And last night, I noticed something: A lot of them were at the State of the Union, including a number of whom I’ve written about.
Their stories should be known:

Monday is a great day to make a donation to the Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank (or any organization you like!) and then log that donation for #HCWvsHunger team #YouPickTwo. Links below!
An adorable “cow cat” who is white with black spots and green eyes on a red checkered blanket.
I just found out there is a BEAUTIFUL senior cat named MRS. DOUBTFIRE up for adoption in Centre County, Pennsylvania! So, of course, I had to spread the word.
If you’re in Central Pennsylvania, please help this elegant lady find a home!

A photo of a beautiful German Shepherd with a text message that reads: Asking for help: Have an elderly pt w/ no remaining family and friends nearby who is getting placed at a facility. Currently has an 8yo German shepherd but they can't get him placed anywhere, so throwing this out there in case someone has any ideas or people who would be interested in fostering. Friendly with adults (hasn't been around kids so don't know about them), has never bitten or been aggressive with anyone, raised from puppy but probably hasn't been super socialized with other people and pets
If anyone in or around Northeast Ohio (he’s currently near Akron) would be interested in helping this sweet pup out let me know!
The inaugural year of #HCWvsHunger was won by #BladesNBougies, a collaboration of anesthesiologists & surgeons in the name of feeding people.
Where are my surgeons & anesthesiologists this year?!

It is possible to hold both of these things true at the same time:
1) political violence is never an appropriate choice in a civilized society
2) Charlie Kirk’s dream is to create exactly the kind of society he currently lives in, as spoken from his own mouth
So hey. I'm reading through some of the public comments, and there aren't that many, tbh.. And some of them are in *support* of repealing regulations/making everyone choke on their big-truck air. Your voice *definitely* matters here.
mentorpl.org/biggerthanth... The Ohio Senate has cut library funding by 25 million. In addition, similar to Florida, they are seeking to restrict any books that express gender identity expression. Governor Dewine has until tomorrow (June 30th) to veto the bill. Below is a link to Govern Dewine.
Today's ACIP meeting is usually a time where experts come together to inform the future of vaccines. That is not what today will be. That is not what we can stand behind. The AAP will continue to recommend its own childhood vaccine schedule -- just as we have since the 1930s
"The bill directs what is likely the largest single sale of national public lands in modern history..."

I had lunch at 10am today. My body is apparently needing to fuel probably the 314 mychart messages I responded to over the course of the past few weeks.
In the spring of 2008, I feared America was on the verge of war with Iran — and, believing that it’s good style to get to know people before you bomb them, I made “Rick Steves’ Iran,” a one-hour special that could (and would) only debut on PBS. Sadly, this special has become pertinent again today.
How did the UPMC #MedPeds Residency use experiences, attributes, & metric domains to develop & implement rubrics to aid in a holistic review of applicants?

Making tortellini like you make pot stickers 🤌
When the MOCA Peds question doesn’t even follow the guideline it references ☹️
Yes that is exactly true. They actually are pretty profitable for the owners even when they have losing season after losing season.
It’s exasperating. They have a beautiful park and sports crazy fan base and the owners just don’t care.
The Pirates never try to have a winning season on purpose.
Not sure how to spend your last evening at #SGIM25? We got you. Join Pitt faculty Drew Klein and #PittACESfellowship alumni Allie Dakroub and Eduardo Mulanovich tonight at Trivia Night! They always make sure everyone has a fun time 😎
Oh hey we know that Med-Peds doc (and Addiction Medicine Specialist)!
