I’ve been referring to the COVID-19 pandemic as the “Boomer Remover” for quite a while. Whooo-boy does that get this generation upset.

I’ve always thought drunken boot hockey should be in the games.

Too many words for reading, when all I wanted was a link to buy that fucking shirt.

We used to go cliff jumping at Tettegouche, up the road. But I don’t think I’ve ever even heard of anyone jumping Palisade Head.

I’ve always liked Crescent Dragonwagon’s Bean cookbook, but that may be just because I like saying her name. Or it could be the good one from the WaPo journalist Joe Yonan.

Can you move to Cut&Tag? We also had issues with Run variation. In the end, replicate variation for either assay was normalized by spiking in 10% mouse nuclei into human assays and 10% human nuclei for mouse assays.

Oh no. Next is Dept chair, then some kind of interim dean position, then full dean plus balancing with your academic responsibilities. Maybe you need to add a leadership role for ACUC/IACUC?

@badgernoonan.bsky.social your audio has been super low the past couple Brewers pods making it hard to understand anything you say. James has his LOUD @rdtopp.bsky.social is in the middle and you are so distant I have to blow out my ears to hear. Can you guys try to balance the audio?

Yeah, we had a streak going of picking up macarons. It was getting out of control, but they were so good and cheap!

It’s distressing that MD’s get no nutritional training in med school. Sigh. There’s no data that increasing protein intake has any negative effect on kidney health, unless you have chronic kidney disease already.

When used for heavy metal poisoning (I.e. not autism!), the charged oxygen moieties at the ends of the four claws, and the charged nitrogen on the backbone, grab the metal ion from all angles holding the metal at the center. Once in this giant claw, the body can pee it out.

Oh man, good pair of episodes, but the constant mispronunciation of chelation therapy was triggering. It is not “chi-lay-shun” like chai tea. Rather, it is pronounced “key-lay-shun” like a car key. The chemical these lunatics are using is EDTA, which looks like a big four-armed claw, hence “chel”.

His people could say “no” to illegal orders, or they could say “yes” as history has shown they are not prosecuted and pay no penalty. If no one enforces the laws and there are no consequences for breaking the laws…..then to quote the great legal scholar Geoffrey Rush, they are more like guidelines.

They could focus on something that matters? As a non-member, watching the legal experts get all wound up when the rules they’ve devoted their lives to are proven to not matter is like watching someone argue their board game rules are not being followed.

His people had no consequences for Jan6, and many of the cop-attacking rioters were pardoned. A more on-point historical note would be that all the guardsman who shot protestors at Kent State were found not guilty or not charged.

My only note would be that the rule of law they thought existed did not ever exist, and they are just now catching up.

Well, that was a helpful response. I was simply noting that the people who have devoted their lives to understanding, litigating and teaching the legal framework of the US are often the angriest in these moments. It’s hard to discover the thing you thought mattered does not, in fact, matter.
