Found the email I sent when I got accidentally added to the faculty listserv of an orthopedic surgery clinic and nobody would remove me so I sent this email to all faculty/staff/med students and they removed me almost immediately
Hello Bone Colleagues, 
I have invented a new type of ankle and I'm very excited to show it to you. Early raccoon trials suggest a 60% increase in scurrying speed and dramatic increases in fine motor banditry. I know we are not supposed to create super raccoons, but I think you'll change your mind and professional ethics when you see how cute they are. I believe we are on the cusp of a new era in advanced human scurrying because if medical science has taught me anything, it's that improvements in raccoons correspond 1:1 to improvements in humans.

As always, when a devastating new report about book bans in America is published, I challenge you to think less about the most banned author — Stephen King is fine — and more about the banned authors who are trying to scrabble together a living from their art. pen.org/report/book-...

A Spotlight on School Book Bans
Nearly 12,000 books were banned in public schools during the 2025-2026 school year, according to PEN America’s Index of School Book Bans.

Ainu woman of Old Japan. Hand-colored photo. About 1920’s
Seated in a quiet, dignified pose, a young Ainu woman looks forward with a serene, composed gaze in a hand-colored glass slide from the 1920s. She is dressed in a traditional robe (chikarkarpe) woven with bands of muted slate, ochre, and indigo, accented by a broad, deep violet collar band. The oversized sleeves feature dark applique panels decorated with white embroidery rendering spiraling moreu (scroll motifs) and sharp ayus (thorn-like flourishes). Around her neck rests a rekutunpe (choker) strung with brass disks, paired with a longer strand of trade-glass beads (tama-sai), while large brass hoop earrings (ninkari) dangle beside her cheekbones. Subtle blue-black pigment encircles her lips—the traditional sinuye (sacred facial tattoo)—framed by softly waving hair against a lush backdrop of shadowed foliage.

The Aini are the indigenous people of Hokkaido (Ainu Mosir), Sakhalin, and the Kuril Islands. During this era of state-sponsored modernization and rapid assimilation policies, traditional practices such as sinuye—performed by female elders to mark a young woman's spiritual maturity and readiness for adulthood—were increasingly prohibited. Early 20th-century ethnographic portraiture thus preserves a critical visual record of Ainu textile traditions, which evolved from indigenous attus (elm-bark fiber cloth) into intricate, appliquéd cotton garments. In Ainu worldview, all natural phenomena, tools, and garments are inhabited by spiritual beings (kamuy), making the crafting of robes a sacred dialogue between human maker and the natural world.

Aesthetically, the garment represents an indigenous expression of monozukuri (artisanal mastery), where technical skill serves spiritual protection. The embroidery placed intentionally around garment openings—cuffs, necklines, and hems—functions as a protective kekkai (sacred boundary), guarding the wearer’s vital energy (ramat) from malevolent spirits (wen-kamuy).
