Upon graduating medical school in 1881, Arthur Conan Doyle did a doodle of himself waving his diploma over his head. The caption reads: "Licensed to Kill." My new book SLEUTH-HOUND is about Conan Doyle's professor, Joseph Bell - the real-life Sherlock Holmes. Out Oct 20! linktr.ee/drlindseyfit...

Whatever you do, don't smoke an entire brisket at a job interview, it's a lot of equipment to bring in, it takes a really long time to do it right and those conference rooms have notoriously poor ventilation

My linocut on white Japanese paper shows 18th century woman (Laura Bassi) in dress with fur cape, and hair in ringlets with a hairpiece which echoes a laurel crown. She’s holding an open book with Newtonian optics diagrams and in front of her is an electrical machine (a stand with vertical large glass plate and hand crank and brass tubes to channel the large electrostatic charges it could generate through friction). She is surrounded by typical high tech lab equipment of her day like conductors, an aurora flask, a luminous discharge tube, a Lane electrometer, Leyden jars and Volta's electric pistol. It’s printed in a gradient of a hint of turquoise through violet to red-magenta to bronze from the bottom to the top.

It doesn’t matter if you eat organic foods. It doesn’t matter if you exercise regularly. It doesn’t matter if you inject peptides. It doesn’t matter if you have “good genes”. None of these things will prevent you from contracting vaccine-preventable diseases. There is only one thing that will.

Chelton's Mushroom Photography @mush-photos.bsky.social · 13/09/2026

Two unlikely friends, a parrot mushroom and a tiny guy (Mycena maybe?), join together on a cold November day near the Puget Sound in Washington #mushroom #fungifriends #mushrooms #nature #naturephotography #photographersofbluesky #mushroomsofbluesky #gliophoruspsittacinus 🍄📷 📸🎞 🌿🌱 🟢 🍄 🍄‍🟫

A beautiful yellow and green parrot mushroom, along with a tiny pink-striped and pinkish-white-capped mushroom, stands together on cold, wet, cedar-duff-covered ground. The parrot mushroom has a shiny, smooth yellow stipe. The cap is very uniformly shaped and a beautiful combination of light and darker green. Its wet surface reflects the canopy of trees covering the overcast sky above. The tiny pink mushroom leans against the stipe of the parrot mushroom, its cap disturbing the thin layer of slime that coats the parrot mushroom.
