This is great. The absurdity of this moment captured. Make it go viral.

GO BILLS!!!

Wait, wait, hold on... You mean warfare has *changed* since 1860, and "lifting and carrying heavy things" isn't a universal marker for military effectiveness? 🤯

Happy Put Up Your 12 Foot Skeleton Day to to pose who celebrate

Ran intervals, because apparently my self-loathing is strong today.

I recently finished The Wheel of Time series (it took me several months, and I'm generally a fast reader) and now I don't know what to do with my life

Listen to this young man.

Can't sleep. Maybe scrolling the Horrible News Machine will help

Seems relevant again for some reason. Can't put my finger on why

16 years ago, this lil nugget made me a daddy. HAPPY BIRTHDAY KIDDO!!

Make a band singular: Alien Ant

Maybe a little early in the season, but flu and COVID shots are done

I see that Marty Makary is in the news. I just wrote about his PragerU interview. If you want to see how wildly ignorant he seems to be, have a look. www.mcgill.ca/oss/article/...

Anyway, I put a pork shoulder on the smoker before I went to work this morning and grilled some corn when I got back

In Russia's air raid on Ukraine tonight, about 15 of its attack drones have entered Polish airspace, per Ukrainian channels. There's been a few instances of these drones crashing in Poland to date, but this appears to be the most significant Russian intrusion into NATO airspace yet.

Really, Google Gemini can do everything? Then let's see it fuck off

Recently back from an exercise in St Croix. Worked some search and rescue, aerial resupply, dive medicine, and mass casualty with my folks (and pulled a lot of urchin spines out of feet). A good trip, but I'm so glad to be home www.123aw.ang.af.mil/News/Article...

Slightly diminish a book: Alderman of the Rings

Go Bills!

Now *that's* how the Cleveland Browns finish in close games 😂

Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s family calls for his resignation www.axios.com/2025/09/05/r...

If I have any friends into sci-fi and smut, an opportunity presents itself

They’re forming a CDC workgroup to decide which line on this graph looks better and their answer may surprise you

Very good trip so far

As expected. Noted antivaxxer Geier, who has had many retractions in the lit and was fined for practicing medicine without a license, is who Kennedy hired to "find the cause of autism."

Happy birthday to Jack Kirby.

Abbe Lowell and I represent CDC Director #SusanMonarez. Contrary to govt statements, Dr. Monarez has neither resigned nor yet been fired. She will not resign. We have issued the following statement:

Work pants this evening. Search and rescue exercise 😁

Reminding myself today to read the red words

More than a little misleading. But Francis Collins is being polite. Say it straight: RFK and Bhattacharya are liars, selected for their ability to mislead the public, like so much of this administration’s picks. Why are so many Trump appointees Fox hosts? For this reason.

There's a med student rotating with us today who looks SO MUCH like Ramsey Snow/Bolton from Game of Thrones that I (low key) find myself wanting to stab him for no fault of his own. Kid needs to shave his head or get plastic surgery or something

Furthest I have been: N: Reykjavik, Iceland* E: Sydney, Australia** S: Sydney, Australia W: Lihue, Hawaii * If extended airport layovers count. Dublin, Ireland if they don't ** Got there by traveling west. The farthest east I've been from traveling east is Bishkek, Krygzstan

I break this out for trainees at least once a month

This is a good take.

Increase a band: Powerman 5001

The Department of Transportation just fired all 25 numbers of the National Emergency Medical Services Advisory Council. No reason given You know, government business as usual

I cobbled something a bit novel together to succeed at a tricky procedure and help a patient out tonight, and it worked! Saved him a transfer and a hospital stay Felt like the best doctor ever for a minute there

Everything is better

Being surrounded by idiots is at least good for my imposter syndrome
