"Et tu, Liam Neeson??"

- Julius Caesar
SCOOP: Academy Award-nominee Liam Neeson narrated a recent anti-vaccine documentary that glorifies RFK Jr.’s rise to power.

In the film, Neeson—a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador—calls the COVID-19 vaccines “dangerous experiments.”

It's a good day for me. I managed to leave the house and remembered to button up all the buttons on my fly.

NEW: Buried in the new defense bill is a policy to fill weapon “gaps” Israel gets as other nations embargo it.

As in: citing "wartime" needs, the US armed Israel’s genocide.
Nations responded by restricting weapons to Israel.
Now, citing those very restrictions, the US may send Israel *even more.*

Sitting here looking for inspiration photos for a tattoo I've been wanting to do for ages.

My avi will give you an pretty pretty pretty good idea on what it is.

Next tattoo though will be the Scottish clan crest of my family from before they came to America.

This is sorta cool, album by month. I played Chappell Roan at work a lot for one of my doctors.

Don’t ask my how Belly got on there.

And the November artist, TTSSFU is blowing up across the pond. Another great find from Instagram.

OK maybe I have this figured out. Here’s my 2025 music review from Apple Music.

400 artists seems like a lot! I am always looking for new music.

Been listening the band "Geese" the last couple of days.

It's like if Nick Cave was singing for The Grateful Dead are my impressions this morning.

If the Preds decide to tear things down, Steven Stamkos and Ryan O’Reilly could be on the move.

Digging into what these two still have left in the tank + what kind of roles are fitting at this point in their careers after a tough last year+ in Nashville

Haven’t been eat hardly any TV over the last few months really.

Decided to start watching Pluribus tonight.

One thing i will say about Vince Gilligan, he makes some beautiful TV. The shots, the sets, he really creates beautiful moments.

Nothing sucks worse than seeing some new music artist on Instagram, having to open another app on your phone and then being unable to find that artist again on IG once it refreshes swapping back to it.

This album was recorded in Nashville over at Blackbird about 12 years ago. The band is from the UK. Amazing live band. I’ve traveled to Seattle, LA, San Francisco, and to Philly to catch them.

When someone at work emails out pictures of their newborn baby, is your first impulse to ask "Do we know who the father is?"

Just me???
November 25, 2025 at 6:55 PM
Haha so an update....

My offer was shot down completely. Not surprising, but what was surprising is that no one came back to me with a counter offer.

So in a cruel twist of fate, the doc doing the role says that it is my bosses job to do it (it is not) and he's arbitrarily tapped her to do it.
There’s a role at work that NO ONE wants, but i’ve wanted it for a long time. One of our doctors does it and gets paid a hefty stipend weekly for it.

The time has come for them to ask me to do it in a backup capacity for now. I said i would do it for half of what he gets paid to do it.

Another great music find this morning. This artist is coming to Nashville in March.

A patient today at work asked our anesthesiologist "Please do not give me any vaccines while I am under anesthesia!"

We enjoyed discussing all the times patients had actually been given vaccines while being under, and methods of delivery. *

Today was a good day at the office.

* THERE WERE NONE

At the office today. Corporate ordered lunches for all our sites, so i showed up as delivery contact.

Never fails EVERYONE thinks i bought lunch personally for them.

So i just go along with it and take all the credit.

Here's a story we didn't see anyone else note: Fab Morvan's been nominated for a Grammy... his first since having to return the best new artist trophy in 1990.

Nice, nerdy context from @idislikestephen.bsky.social

Milli Vanilli used to be Grammys poison… but not anymore
Thirty-five years after the Grammys revoked Milli Vanilli's best new artist award, former member Fab Morvan has been nominated in a surprising twist.
