Imagine watching the wristband back-half of The Pitt and being like "It's an exciting time for Emergency Medicine!"
Twice this week when meeting a new person I've gotten an excited "Wow, it must be an exciting time to be a political scientist!" and both times I've answered "Not really. That's like telling someone it's an exciting to be a surgeon when there's a 63 car pileup on the highway."

Oh hey I took a month off because I was living life bouncing around gay campgrounds, but I do not want to ask about the news apparently.

Every now and then I do consider it a blessing for my life circumstances that LeGuin and Dianna Wynn Jones and Butler are all already done.
And then I hope @maxgladstone.bsky.social and @tkingfisher.com and @vandroidhelsing.bsky.social don't mess it up. (Y'all are great tho.)

The honest posting one is to admit about the time I made my dad cry with the insult. He was yelling at me after I had a bad semester in undergrad and I said I didn't want to take career advice from a man who did nothing but complain about how unhappy his career trajectory was.
What's an insult you'll never forget?

So my Christmas adventure was trying to help my great uncle get his smart TV set up for YouTube when he barely knows he even has an email (since it doesn't like guest mode anymore)... And then learning he's putting in a new TV next week.

An aside (so quoted): I've not seen this so much in law, and only rarely see it in physics and math, but altmed cranks in particular absolutely love to compare themselves to Galileo. It's weird how that specific type of crankery draws that same analogy.

Wondering now what the Uno equivalent of Beerio Kart is.
Uno is the Mario kart of card games
Four. Games. Of. Uno. She won 4 in a row. She is an evil uno wizard

And Tiny Tim, who did NOT die, was somewhere in Barstow on the edge of the desert when the drugs began to take hold.
And Tiny Tim, who did NOT die, was the color of television, tuned to a dead channel.

a lot of people don't realize that Christmas carols and traditions are actually folk memories of suppressed pre-Christian events, namely the end of the Third Age and the Fall of Sauron.

six months ago Reader’s Digest asked if they could purchase the publishing rights for this elaborate shitpost I wrote a year ago now wherein I pretended to be the elf equivalent of David Brooks at the North Pole. Thought it was maybe a phishing scam but it’s real LMAOO

Someone should sit the new members of ACIP down and explain what their job is and is not to them in simple terms, and maybe teach them some basic law. Dr. Malone's claims here have several misunderstandings. 1/n

Big news out of Montana: Dr. Thomas Weiner has lost his license and will never practice medicine there again as the medical board finally responds to reports that he hurt and mistreated people. They noted Scott Warwick, who got 10 years of chemo etc, died from it, but never had cancer. Context 👇
Let me tell you a story – one of the more haunting I’ve seen in 20 years of journalism. It’s about greed, death and denial. It took two years to unravel one doctor’s myth, a hospital’s complicity in creating it, and a documented trail of suspicious deaths…🧵

people on here will tweet anything. "Charlie Brown had disciples." No he didn't. That isn't true.
He was despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief.

It is honestly *bizarre* to look at the recent steep decline in violent crime stats when taking a range of decades and somehow still a bunch of ignorant assholes think cities are violent hellholes that only get worse year over year (when really their rural towns are violent hellscapes).
Fewer than 150 murders in Baltimore is wild. When I was a kid it was almost always more than one a day
I count 10 cities in 2025 that are on track to have the fewest murders since at least 1970. Newark is on pace to have the fewest murders since 1956 (though only have data through Oct this year) and San Francisco is on pace to have the fewest murders since 1942.

"One human actor all others muppets" with Steerpike as the one human for Titus Groan and Gormenghast; Titus as a muppet among humans for Titus Alone.
I read the Gormenghast series (obvs not horror persee but plenty Gothic) recently and alternated between picturing a cast of muppets and a Selick stop motion look the whole time.

Huh. So I had the passing thought that this narrator of Everything is Tuberculosis kinda sounds like Hank Green but not exactly.
Turns out the author, John Green, narrated the book himself, and is in fact Hank Green's brother.
