Starting a new medical school is fun. I hired my first faculty member 6 months ago. She is a wonderfully bright pharmacology professor. Great teacher, wonderful researcher... ...then today I found out she doesn't like Ted Lasso... Guess I'll have to fire her and look for a new pharmacologist..

Ok, Buckeye, I’m hear to (finally) take my lumps…if any of you make it down to the Riverfront, first beer is on me… @blitz-y.bsky.social @mementomorty.bsky.social @thetirednurse.bsky.social @tom.medsky.social

Would have been absolutely insane if they had overturned that score

@mementomorty.bsky.social @blitz-y.bsky.social @thetirednurse.bsky.social It’s almost kickoff time! First time watching The Game since moving to Ohio…could either be a fun week or a miserable year ahead for me!

All the people complaining that they won't be able to understand Bad Bunny's Super Bowl show...I wonder if they would have the same complaint Pearl Jam was selected instead...

I saw a post where Emma Watson got pulled over and my first thought was “she’s old enough to drive now?” She’s 35… Gods, I’m old…

Hey @wrenispinkle.bsky.social Love seeing your Padres fight it out with the Dodgers…

I’ve largely given up on social media of late…so what brings me back to Blue Sky? Dogs. Show me your dogs. @drmichellelarue.bsky.social can we gay a Larry update? It’s been ages since I’ve seen his wonderful, enormous nose!

These are my Detroit Tigers! Tesla sought to place ads with the Tigers for 7 million dollars a year. Detroit said “no thanks” and gave a reason!

Hey @wrenispinkle.bsky.social How ‘bout them Tigers! Once again getting the best of your Padres!

JFC, @schumer.senate.gov where the hell are the Dems? Stop rolling over and do something!

So it seems @schumer.senate.gov is willing to just roll over and hand the country over to Putin's puppet...we are in this situation because the dems have no backbone

For the first week of #BlackHistoryMonth, lets start by tackling misinformation by highlighting one of the first scientists and Badass Biochemists to engage in debunking pseudoscience! The amazing Alma Levant Hayden! A biochemist of a truly historical level of badassery! @fda.gov

Match Day is about 2 months away…how’s that going to work with a federal funding freeze? Anyone want to hazard a guess as to how much residency programs at research universities depend on NIH and other federal dollars? What will GME look like without those resources?

Leaving the WHO is monumentally stupid…

My current M2 class is getting ready to enter dedicated Step 1 studying in a week. All the stats I use to predict Step 1 success has me very excited about how this class is going to perform. This has been one of my favorite classes in 20ish years, not just academically, they have been a fun group

My Facebook memory today was reminding me why I have cat-like reflexes…because my then 4-year old took out his frustrations of his Thomas tracks not connecting to his Geotracks by throwing their respective trains at my head…

In retrospect, perhaps grabbing the cast iron pot isn’t the best way to ascertain if it is too hot to grab…

Wordle 1,294 2/6 🟨🟨🟨🟨🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 I’m not normally a Wordle sharer, but it was kinda cool that all the letters of my starting word were present in the solution today, but in an order that none of them were in the correct place

The Storm says happy Christmas, Hanukkah, Saturnalia, Solstice or whatever you and yours celebrate!

Didn’t realize cat-box Saturday was a thing…but I’ll participate…or rather Stormy will…

Taking trash talking across two platforms! @docwithbowtie.bsky.social #GoLions

Literal Nazi’s walk through downtown Columbus Ohio GOP: *crickets* Michigan beats Ohio State (again) Ohio GOP: Flag planting should be a felony!! And they claim progressives are soft…

The bad news: a grand total of zero of my M1 and M2 students went to Ohio State for their undergrad degree, so I had a lot of pent up gloating during the week. The good news: The majority of my M1 and M2 students are Bears fans, so I did get to release some of that gloating! #GoBlue #GoLions

After three wonderful editions of The Game, I’m here to take my lumps…go ahead and give me that pent up hell, @mementomorty.bsky.social and @blitz-y.bsky.social But still, #GoBlue!

And just when you thought these appointments couldn't get more ridiculous, this is who is going to be in charge of educating our kids... thehill.com/regulation/c...

I’m going to take this opportunity to point out that at one of my previous institutions I taught a Nutritional Biochemistry course for M2s and had an entire 3-hour block covering the evaluation of dietary supplements. A third of that session was devoted to debunking claims made on the Dr. Oz show

What…and I mean this as strongly as possible…the fuck?! Teaching med students to combat misinformation is rapidly turning urgent… www.msnbc.com/msnbc/amp/sh...

Any curricular folks out there? Any good alternative to ExamSoft for secure assessments and linking items to learning objectives and outcomes?

If you love olives like I do, you’re probably going to want to be here for my chicken with a Lebanese slant…

STILL the hill I’m dying on… The best animated movie ever made…and the John Powell score is utter perfection!

Happy accidents Many years ago the med school I was at was looking to make connections to support scholarships for students from inner cities. I found the executive director of the Shepherd Foundation on Twitter, an organization that does just that. So I arranged a Zoom call with her…(1/2)

Who makes better grape leaves than me? Nobody The answer is nobody

17 people from our program went to #AAMC24 last week...the best we could do was 6 of us for the group photo...

Wasting the best running back in history? I remained a fan through that Misusing the best WR of his generation? I remained a fan through that 0-16? I remained a fan through that If this turns out to be a Super Bowl year, fair warning, friends...I am going to be absolutely insufferable! #GoLions

Not officially traveling until I’ve spilled coffee on my light colored shirt…

What Dems do better: Economy Crime Health Care Education Immigration Domestic Budget Foreign Relations What the GOP does better: Propaganda What wins elections: Propaganda

My wife, opening my Reddit app on my phone and seeing all the food subreddits I’m subscribed to: “I was expecting regular porn, not food porn…”

So…are we sharing pumpkin pictures, or what?

This weekend I uttered a sentence I have never imagined in my life ever speaking: “Well, at least we’ve got the Lions!”

This came across my reels this morning…am I actually Finnish?

How 'bout them Tigers, @wrenispinkle.bsky.social?!

One step closer to a Tigers-Padres Series, @wrenispinkle.bsky.social

In line behind a cringey middle aged dude hitting on the high school aged cashier… “So, do you work here?” Dude…my lord…

Now that we have gifs, I can communicate effectively! The last hurdle for leaving Twitter!

My dad and I don’t agree on religion Or politics Or society in general But last Sunday we were feverishly texting back and forth the same thing to each other “Just kick the damn field goal!” #Lionsarekillingme

The kids have been done unwrapping for hours, but the post-unwrapping stage doesn’t officially start until the cat claims his box…

Some people have conference ribbons that read “Grant Awardee” or “Invited Speaker” I just want my fellow conference goers to know I’d rather see pictures of their pet while drinking coffee…

Are you attending #AAMC #LearnServeLead in Seattle? Stop by on Saturday, November 4 from 11:45-1:00 and discuss strategies to help medical students combat #MedicalMisinformation We’ll be at Table 70!
