Propofol Free-for-all

All my Grunkle Stan apes is gone.

The damage being done to US science will take a generation to repair, if it is ever repaired at all,

Paul Offit was one of my Pediatrics professors in med school, and I remember him as wise, gentle, and kind. You are hearing the voice of a good man lamenting what will happen to the children he has dedicated his life to protecting.

I propose the alternate title, “Cleaning House, From Floor to Ceiling.”

The FDA memo claiming the COVID vaccine killed at least 10 children relies on unverified VAERS reports and ignores real pediatric COVID data. If the agency wants credibility and truly believes in “radical transparency” it must release the full evidence for independent review.

My eldest (9 lbs 10 oz)and youngest (10 lbs 1 oz) would be sugar babies by this definition.

OMG do y’all regularly call macrosomic infants sugar babies? Because that is about the cutest thing ever!

Introducing myself with five animals I’ve seen in my yard:

American alligator
Sandhill crane
North American river otter
White ibis
Alligator snapping turtle

Florida is WILD, man.

Excellent work.

I was going to create a team, but I thought someone else was in the process of creating one. I was going to call it “NPO Cancellers,” because no one should be NPO for lack of food.

The Muppet Christmas Carol is my favorite straight adaptation (as if anything Muppets can truly be called “straight.”)

Blackadder’s Christmas Carol is my favorite version, or rather, inversion of the story.

Lollapalooza ‘92: Lush, Pearl Jam, The Jesus & Mary Chain, Soundgarden, Ice Cube, Ministry, and RHCP; plus other acts. Best $20 I ever spent.

Introduce yourself with five concerts you’ve seen:

Los Lobos / U2 (1987)
Sun Ra (1990)
Lollapalooza ‘92
Weird Al Yankovic (2015)
Dinosaur Jr. / The Flaming Lips /Weezer (2024)

The surprising part of the story is that a blood-red state like Idaho would allow one of its departments to report this.

Tip of the scrub cap to @fishdarn for making the best thing on the Internet today. Wash those hands, people!

As the youngsters might say, “Yeet the one after six-seven.”

Should’ve been my first 10/10, but I talked myself out of the right answer for question 2.

Wrong color, but I hear “Hey Ladies” by the Beastie Boys when I look at this car.

The extent of the damage done to public health, biomedical science, and healthcare in the US in less than a year will take a generation or more to repair. This is the scale of the destruction. Let that sink in. A new president, Congress won't be enough to reverse things fully. It's that bad.

“Since 1998, independent researchers have conducted more than 40 high-quality studies involving over 5.6 million people. The conclusion is clear and unambiguous: There’s no link between vaccines and autism." -Dr. Susan Kressly, AAP President on recent changes to the CDC's website

Some people have spirit animals. This is my spirit vegetable.

Vaccine Safety MENU V For Everyone NOV. 19, 2025 KEY POINTS • The claim "vaccines do not cause autism" is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines cause autism. • Studies supporting a link have been ignored by health authorities. • HHS has launched a comprehensive assessment of the causes of autism, including investigations on plausible biologic mechanisms and potential causal links.

This is completely disgusting. Today, the CDC updated their vaccine safety page. It now says:

“The claim "vaccines do not cause autism" is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines cause autism”.

Dr. Turner, please allow this male physician to offer my hearty congratulations on your achievement. Keep up the good work, and don’t let the bastards grind you down!
