Can you imagine if the Wakefield paper never saw the light of day and where we might be now?
AI turned me into some sort of Disney snake whisperer 🤣
This is very true 🐍
Bathroom, hallway, CT…
Oh jeez, that does not sound relieving at all!

It's time for Tox Tuesday and some fountain pen structures! This beast is BREVETOXIN-1, produced by the marine dinoflagellate Karenia brevis. It is also the cause of neurotoxic shellfish poisoning (NSP). But aside from harming humans, it also harms our economy, so buckle up!
Hell yeah, go get it! May the spirit of Ronnie Coleman be with you
I feel this… AZ is just on big dust bowl. Every night cetirizine or loratadine (whatever 90 day bottle I buy) is the routine. 👃🏼💦
Pulled the trigger on a new whip (X6 Msport)… slapped on some fresh tint and ceramic coating! My Jeep (2019 Grand Cherokee) just couldn’t cooperate after 3 waters pumps… now needing a 4th, oil leaking from everywhere, and engine mounts blown. 😎
Starting House M.D. again…
I am unwell**

You’ve already done so much for the fields of EM & Tox… I look forward to all your future endeavors.
(Pleeeeeaase don’t burn out!)
Congrats on the upcoming 👶🏻

Still working on projects from fellowship & now, my post-fellow job is asking me to projects (somewhat optional) amongst other groups asking for me to join projects/research.

I get it, b/c if you pass an opportunity, it may not come back & you want to remain relevant.
Today marks the end of an era… said adios to my Jeep after 7 years, but at 46,000 miles I shouldn’t be on my 3rd water pump needing a 4th, engine mounts shot & an oil leak from who knows where🤷🏻‍♂️. Found this note in my car from my first month of owning it brand new after someone smashed it🤣#ByeByeJeep
Bears, Beets, Battlestar Galactica… chaos
What’s happening with the US government reminds me of this story (great book btw):
Libertarians took over a town in NH in 2004 and gutted its services, cut taxes, etc. Less than 8 yrs later things had gotten so bad that black bears were breaking into homes and killing people for the first time ever.
The Town That Went Feral
When a group of libertarians set about scrapping their local government, chaos descended. And then the bears moved in.

The striped pajama squid are one of the few organisms that are both venomous AND poisonous. They can inject tetrodotoxin with their tiny teeth, and they secrete a poisonous slime when threatened to deter predators. So don't let it bite you and don't bite it. Besides, it's super cute.
