I spend much of my life around people who are amazingly smart, amazingly effective, or both. I am humbled all the time. It's not a bad place to be.

So say we all! (Couldn't help it)

Heh. From the Vaccine website: "Submission to first decision: 5 days". Somehow I don't think desk rejections are rare there.

I could be wrong. My PhD isn't in theoretical Chemistry, not biology / virology / epidemiology / etcetera. But good grief, just send it elsewhere.

You have to get the pain under control first. There's real science behind pain control, according to my veterinarian spouse who treats pain in her patients and also had spinal surgery earlier this year.

The vaccine is expensive as all heck, and you should still get the vaccine. You're probably fine, but if you're not then there's nothing anybody can do for you.

Next time, best to capture the bat, I'm afraid.

It doesn't help to tell you this now, but the Copenhagen airport has amazing pastries. Well, danish, I suppose. Next time....

Now I'm imagining you pulling out pad and pen at mile xx on your trail run....

But you have to pay for hot water, since the hot water heater isn't in the attic being passively roasted by nature.

Sports Night was 1999?! Oh, geez.

Wow. "Sailing into the void clear-eyed that it's the best we've got" (paraphrasing) wasn't what I was expecting to read today, but I can't say it's actually wrong.

Youngest isn't a Sabrina Carpenter fan either, I assume?

I suspect both the recordings and the transcripts are deleted after the AI summary is produced for the medical records. Most doctors I know are drowning in paperwork, and desperate for something to reduce the amount of time they spend on medical records on their time off.
