A huge congratulations to our incoming PGY1s — we are so excited to welcome such a talented group and look forward to having you join our family! 🥳🎊

A valuable flute went missing yesterday from the owner's bike on the way to a lunchtime session in Cassidy's in Camden St. It has huge sentimental value and a reward has been offered. If anyone sees it, please send a DM. RTs appreciated.

In US adolescents, increasing social media use from ages 9–13 was associated with lower scores on measures of reading, memory, vocabulary, and composite cognition. ja.ma/3XDwTpE

The lady at the charity shop today told me that she wishes people would clear out their children's old toys in the lead up to Christmas rather than after because she always sees a number of parents in the days before Christmas looking for toys for their little ones who might be strapped for cash. She said there's very rarely anything in just before, but that they get inundated with toys in the days after. And it really made me think about it in a way I never would have before. If you know your child is going to get lots of presents from Father Christmas this year, by clearing out your cupboards a few days early, you could make another child's Christmas a lot more special too. Saw this & thought I'd repost.

@kenzianidiot We want to hear their take on real Irish people

my dad goes to a bar with his friends every friday and he makes a list of discussion topics pt 113

@phildmcentee Happy retirement to a legend!

Hanging up his clogs having worked in The Mater for as long as I have been alive. I’m so proud of all he has achieved and the legacy he leaves behind. Delighted to have had the chance to see him in action and will always cherish the memories of getting to scrub in together

Dr. Salena Zanotti, an obstetrician and gynecologist with the Cleveland Clinic, said earlier this year that acetaminophen is considered the safest drug to take during pregnancy for fever and pain. “When you’re pregnant, it’s riskier to have an untreated fever than it is to take acetaminophen,” Zanotti said.

I am in awe of our Canadian ladies. They're #2 in the World, yet they had to crowdfund to pay for their World Cup preparations and travel. Today, they watched #1 New Zealand perform the Haka, then trampled them 34-19 in the World Cup semifinal. The Black Ferns had won 6 of the last 7 World Cups. Canada will now advance to the final for the first time, and these ladies did it ALL on their own. 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

Mariam Dagga, killed by Israel today, was an incredibly talented photographer. She relentlessly and courageously documented the genocide. I'm going to share some of her images. Graphic content included.

@CaseySeidemanMD Google maps based list for Amsterdam (mostly food): Amsterdam rec · Clare maps.app.goo.gl/griNh7CkXuUiu2… Rembrandt Haus museum is my top rec!

Heading to Amsterdam, Vienna and Prague soon - looking for recs for activities, shopping and food (I have the hotels and travel covered). What have been your faves?

@MsikoravMD One of the hospitals I work at does not allow me to send the patient a copy of the letter I dictate to their family doctor- infuriating

One simple way to make sure you don't write stupid stuff is to make sure patients can access your medical notes anytime Every patient is sent my notes after an interview They can also correct things I wrote they do not agree with Should be mandatory - in France it is not

@KimIversenShow @HeidiBriones It’s more that they don’t want to visit!

@HeidiBriones No. They all literally think they can’t even visit as tourists.

After 10 weeks of being in Europe I learned everyone…Italians, Germans, Danes, French etc are all afraid to even visit the States. They all really think they’re going to be deported the minute they land.

@LarryPDonnelly I brought my child to the doctor in Toronto recently, and when said doctor clocked my accent she immediately started lecturing me that Irish people are antisemitic

You can call Alan Dershowitz wrong, ahistorical, etc. And you’d be right. But as I’ve said here and elsewhere on many occasions, do not underestimate how widespread his sentiments are in the US. I say this in the context of the Occupied Territories Bill. newstalk.com/news/oj-simpon…

@Oldboatie @catsalisbury 🤯

@catsalisbury I’m sorry do you mean a PA came to do a liaison psychiatry assessment?

@2013_Sylvius @tomdoorley @NChildersMEP I was asked for social media usernames on recent ESTA application going to a conference

@tomdoorley @NChildersMEP They’re specifically asking for them on F, M and J visas. Those are predominantly student visas I believe e.g. the J1. Probably not an issue at our delicate ages, but traveling to the US is clearly not as attractive as previously.

I don't think I'll be going to the United States again...
