As a pediatrician I'm horrified at the built-in trampolines but otherwise agree with Copenhagen as a model for us all 😉
Rick Steves@RickSteves
In Copenhagen, like in so many great European cities, it’s a joy to simply wander and be inspired by the different ways a city can be designed for its people. Rather than parking spots, why not have a harbor promenade with built-in trampolines for the populace? It can be done!

Another reminder that healthcare as a whole is very much a novice learner rather than a leader in equity, diversity, and inclusion

ATS: we see you. We see that you have failed to acknowledge that organizing conferences in certain states with restrictions relating to reproductive health will exclude members whose well-being is imperilled. You can't fix "feelings of abandonment" with actual abandonment.
