Looking for health reporting that gets the research straight? FOUND IT. #medLibs

Love being required to use my personal cellphone to access literally every university system.

MARINERS BASEBALLLLLL!!!

Attn: Bluesky

I wouldn’t let him sit ON my lap, merely NEAR my lap, and now he’s staring at me like this and fr we gotta have a talk about the grudges, man, this is not acceptable. (Love you, buddy.)

Congratulations to Eamonn Mullally’s wife and mother to his two children!

We lost our very beloved cat Otis last week, and he is finally home with us again. The mailman set the box labeled "PET CREMAINS" on the porch so I could sign for it, then picked it back up again, handed it to me gently, and said, "I'm so sorry for your loss." Love is a gift. Give it.

Occurred to me that I should not presume everyone knows the history of public library service in the US, especially the formerly-segregated US, and how white library leaders could have acted sooner and done more than they did. Further reading on that topic. www.librarian.net/talks/whiten...

generals gathered in their masses/president calls them all fatasses

This news just made my whole day; nobody has ever deserved this more. Congratulations, @mychal3ts.bsky.social!!

Cats are some of the most loving creatures on the planet wtf

"I'm not on that committee" is a longstanding #medlibs joke but preferable than termination & 2 consultants when it comes to advisory feedback about MEDLINE. More about that & a Sept 25th update about a European alternative PubMed project. eagledawg.blogspot.com/2025/09/medl...

#Caturday loaf

Gang’s back together. ❤️ RIP to the both of ‘em.

More people should consider shutting the fuck up on the Internet. Thank you for coming to my MegTalk.

Is he skipping breakfast because cancer stole his appetite or because he’s decided the three foods I offered are now terrible and only a mysterious fourth food will do? The eternal riddle!

Funniest possible person to say nothing bad happened when he was a kid as a result of everyone having guns

BREAKING

Just had to explain to the painter that the "Attack Cat" sign on the catio is about hugs not violence.

One of NNLM's Book Club selections for September is a 338-page book on how technology has destroyed our ability to focus on anything longer than 65 seconds, and I just wanted to let you know that reports of the death of irony have been *greatly* exaggerated. #medLibs

I can

Uber but just for parallel parking if you need help real quick

Fentanyl doesn’t easily absorb through the skin; you can't overdose just by touching fentanyl pills and powders. Learn more at stopoverdose.org/fentanyl-exp...

I tried to get him to look to the right, but he's a cat so obviously the request was denied. However: close enough.

When my spouse is away we have to take in extra orders from the Biscuit Factory, you see, and it is Very Serious Business.

This They Might Be Giants TONIGHT SHOW performance of "Birdhouse In Your Soul" from 1990 remains firmly lodged in my noggin thanks to the Tonight Show Band's full commitment and Doc Severinsen's incredible trumpeting... It took an already great song and made it transcendent.

saving American research should IMO be the top priority for Dems in this budget session, unless saving Medicaid is on the table

Me, awake at 3am watching Oliver Stone's JFK: HOLY SHIT, LBJ TOTALLY DID THIS SHIT! Me, still awake at 7am but finally having some coffee: Wait, what.

I went on KUOW's Soundside this week to discuss former GOP candidates - and now Trump administration appointees - Joe Kent and Pete Serrano www.kuow.org/stories/repu...

#medLibs, if you're familiar with Fobazi Ettarh's work on vocational awe, microaggressions, and intersectionality in libraries, you might be interested in contributing to this fundraiser to support her care during a medical crisis.

And STOP. Banana time.

NIH has now turned this feature back on, allowing researchers to extend their funding without requesting extra money.

Shut up, nobody asked you

Boy, the outcome of this could have a signiiiiificant impact on academic journal publishing in the U.S.: grants.nih.gov/grants/guide... #medLibs

"Plain language isn’t dumbing it down; it’s opening it up. It’s about respect. It's about access. When we speak in words everyone can understand, we honour the dignity of those we support." Quoting @openfuturelearning.bsky.social, with gratitude. #disability #neurodiversity #autism

I have never been more personally invested in a celebrity romance IN MY LIFE. I hope these crazy kids make it.

Well. That does sum it up.

"don't trust anyone who sincerely uses some dumbass nickname for Trump" is a nearly flawless rule

I was typing “light rail” into Apple Maps and it suggested this, a gross violation of both rules one AND two.

Looking for affirming crisis or mental health support now that the LGBTQ+ 988 crisis line is gone? Check out some of these resources instead. You are loved! adai.uw.edu/lgbtq-support/

Boop that nose. BOOP IT!!

Just a reminder that @trevorproject.bsky.social's services for LGBTQIA+ young people in crisis remain active 24/7/365. They aren't going anywhere, & we adults should all donate to their lifesaving work.

MATILDAAAA!! 😻

1. Kevin Gross and I just posted a new science-of-science preprint. This one explores the looming peer review crisis. As many of you know, it's becoming significantly more difficult for journal editors to find scholars willing to serve as peer reviewers for submitted manuscripts.

I've found the perfect Instagram account. Seattle's Twice Sold Tales owner Jamie recommends books and shows her cats. That's it. IG twicesoldtales

Hell yes, I love this idea! We need more zines in public health/addiction science AND more scientists who think about ways to make study results accessible to the communities they work with! Anybody out there already making study results zines?Would love to see them! #medlibs

NEW: In an unprecedented move, the NIH will soon disinvite dozens of scientists about to take positions on advisory councils that make final decisions on grant funding. NIH staff were told to select others aligned with the Trump administration and told to expect placements by political appointees.
