Tension between human attention & bureaucracy is a defining challenge of modern medicine. Healthcare workers may spend > 60% of their time on administrative duties. The cognitive burden & relentless pace of latter have driven record burnout levels & eroded joy. @FMSQ @FMOQ @cdubesante.bsky.social

Rio Tinto Sorel-Tracy, worst Quebec GHG emitter & eyesore at entrance of UNESCO-protected Lac St-Pierre Biosphere, should be dismantled, and the Contrecoeur container terminal project should be relocated in its port facilities, so as to protect the St-Lawrence river & the Moxostoma hubbsi habitat

The esteem of one's favorite authors is truly the sweetest prize. @charlesmann.bsky.social (1491, 1493, etc.) is a maestro, and holy crap this makes my day!

Last night I read again a chunk of "Fire Weather" by @johnvaillant.bsky.social to check my notes against his reporting and holy crap this is a superb book--a vivid portrait of one of the most fascinating, least known, most important places in North America: northern Alberta. Strong recommend.
