A few snaps from when I convened a neuroscience meeting at @umaryland.edu School ofMedicine. I walked around the lovely downtown and out to Fell’s Point. Unaccompanied. Baltimore is a lovely city and I (60 yo white lady) never felt uncomfortable.

Why does all the news sound like The Onion only with devastating consequences?

With flu, RSV, COVID, H5N1, it seems like a great time to eff with the CDC.

Started feeling unwell yesterday; in 2024, I would have done ibuprofen/acetaminophen, eucalyptus steam, hot tea.

It’s 2025, so I took a Vicodin.

YOLO

Amazing line from Rachel Kushner’s wonderful “Creation Lake”:
The man turned and put his hand on her arm, an ancient gesture employed in every epoch of history by gullible men attempting to calm strident women beset by reasonable doubts.

Frosty this morning. Perhaps hell is freezing over.

It was an honor and my pleasure and privilege to have met this man - who would balk at being called a “hero” and who has great love for his daughters.
You cannot be pro law enforcement and also accept the pardons of felons convicted for attacking them.
