A young Timber Rattlesnake (Crotalus horridus) on the crawl in the Pine Barrens today. This was a well travelled trail and some horseback riders passed through shortly after we gently shooed her off into the bushes
A subadult female timber rattlesnake, Crotalus horridus. And has a greenish yellow with dark chevrons across her back. She was very calm the entire encounter.

A 5-year-old male presents to the emergency department with inability to move his arms/legs and difficulty breathing.  Family reports they found him ingesting these fireworks (see image). What lab do you expect to be abnormal and why? ☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️

Oh this can just fuck off An AI-'written' complete copy of my own book is now on Amazon; same title, more-or-less the same blurb, and exactly the same impetus. Reviewers of Amazon, I urge you to absolutely dive-bomb this plagiaristic piece of shit: www.amazon.co.uk/FORGOTTEN-VI...

Ie augments to a Ranger/GB team would have similar colors, less clashy clashy. But whatever

I’m not military, but my understanding is that EOD is often integrated with teams that have berets (PJs, CCTs, Rangers, Green Berets etc). Feel like from an integration standpoint, the less you dress different, easier to be a part of the “group.” And as to color, seems like goes well with PJ/CCT

Zlatan Coralic suggest in sepsis give the Zosyn first, graham negative bugs have a higher mortality so more important even though infusion. But better to give Vanc at same time (it’s ok). #ACEP26 #FOAMed

But we will rebuild it. We have the technology. With dudes showing off intubating in pubs. With cringe niche conferences that are fun. With telling people everything they know is wrong. And that that is wrong. And with Simpsons references just for Seth and I. #foamed #acep26

Yikes, just stuck my head in the bad place. Pretty much the only tweets from the conference are group/organizations/vendors. Almost none from individuals. Who is gonna engage if there isn’t a community? Social media EM was based on #FOAMed, not advertising. How the mighty have fallen. #acep26

Remember we used to live tweet conferences with such intensity?! It was so hopeful, and actually pretty useful. Those were the days. Thank you for doing a bit of it now.

If you are involved in disaster management/Hazmat/ #EMS go back and watch the ER episode "Exodus" where the ER gets contaminated by benzene. Great learning points.
