For Halloween I’m dressing as a Stochastic Parrot to answer the door and hand out candy. The kids will love it.

When a thunder storm starts and my dog comes over to my office desk, climbs in under my office desk, and plops down on my feet leaning against my shins…. I feel like I have achieved ~15-17% of my justification for my time here on this planet.

My nurse friends agree: 71 year old man who flies in airplanes too much - clot to the lungs. Can we convince Trump to fly that Qatar-bugged plane more often, to own the Libs?

In a more perfect, imperfect world, I feel like the emergency convention choice would be between Troy Jackson and Shenna Bellows. They are a couple of vetted-up-the-wazoo long-time politicians who have put in the hard-time.

One of my COVID-days compatriots posted a memory from 6 years ago, demonstrating how PAPR design was optimized to propel all your farts right into your hood.

With the announcement that Homan is headed to MN to supposedly mediate the situation - I suspect somewhere in Minneapolis there is a production line making 1000s of very fragile fast food bags filled with monopoly money, so when thrown, they burst open and monopoly money flies in all directions.

The answer to "What is the first thing you do when your patient starts seizing?" Is "Look at a clock and mentally record the time." How long the seizure was or how long it had been going on is the first question the first Doc who arrives always asks the nurse. @whstancil.bsky.social

"First, get their name" is flashback things from nursing school. Semi-trick questions to catch the budding nurse too focused on what they themselves were physically going to inject into any situation. @whstancil.bsky.social

All kinds of public hand wringing about what we can do to help the poor 16-29 year old US male. Granted, 90% of that hand wringing is bad-faith performative nonsense.

The purple-colored sign on my lawn says "Vote No on 1 to save absentee voting."
