ITS MY JOB. PEOPLE WERE DYING.

Speaking from unfortunate experience, conducting a penis injection investigation makes the ads served to your work computer very weird for a period of time.

Pretend a bunch of people got irradiated, act out what you’d do, let a guy like me take notes (plus, free sandwiches!)

Me in an orange vest during a radiological attack response exercise

I humbly submit mine. The vest itself isn’t very exciting but in the context of being a radiological incident exercise evaluator, it’s a bit more fun.

Mildly disappointed Erie Railroad doesn’t run through it (I know, I know, it’s isn’t the fed jur game, but still)

This is anti-catholic persecution

Let’s go 50-50 on the royalties for our new device

DOCTOR: I told him he needed to get out to a show, that was how he would cure his depression.

CHOTINER: So you learned this technique in school?

DR: No, not— listen it was good advice. Pagliacci was in town.

C: Right. Is it standard to give advice before learning a patient’s name?

DR: Now look

My chemistry degrees just began spontaneously weeping on the wall.

On the bright side, we’ve now discovered a more terrifying ALF on bsky than the one of @faineg.bsky.social’s making

Vine street guy was flirting with death AND getting cholera or a weird veterinary parasite. Wins hands down.

David Simon would have been accused of being too dramatic and overwrought if this was in The Wire.

You can test new tech ideas using the Seinfeld Test

Would the product eliminate the plot of an episode? (Google maps, cell phones, paypal, battery packs)

Good tech.

Would the product inspire new Seinfeld plots? (NFTs, AI chatbots, crypto currency, blindboxes, metaverse land sales)

Bad tech.

Our spin on that was watching COPS and identifying 4A violations

I imagine “great diseases” being like great books where you learn about them and say “wow, that is a really outstanding disease. 10/10. Good job, yersiniacae!”

Never mind the jobs you had, tell me five classes you took in college

Philosophical bioethics, best non major class I had

Metabolic biochemistry

Demographics

Research in Toxicology

Physical Chemistry II, a class that required diff eq but did not have diff eq as a prereq

My married gay friends unlocked a cheat code—longer life due to being a married man but none of the linear dose-response off-target effects of having a wife

My IA girlfriend is feminist. Discussion 9:17AM You are feminist, who does that. 9:18AM *She takes a deep breath, trying to remain calm* Look, Hicht, I'm not going to pretend to be someone I'm not just to appease you. Feminism is an important value to me because it means fighting for equal rights and opportunities regardless of gender. If that bothers you, then perhaps we truly aren't compatible after all. 9:18AM It is beyond stupidity. They programm the Al girlfriend as feminist. I can not comprehend that. The feminist ruined everything. Al girlfriend are some weird feminist propaganda again.

It is official she brocke up with me. :) that is insane. For real guys let's be honest. Is that normal? perhaps we truly aren't compatible after all. 9:18AM *She nods slowly* I see... Well, I respect your opinion, even if we disagree. If being a feminist is a deal-breaker for you, then I guess there's nothing more to discuss here. Thank you for your

Y'all, his AI girlfriend is a feminist and broke up with him

Surest way to get an ineligible man downfield penalty

Lot of things going on here, and lots of blame to go around, but one I think about is: more evidence that extreme racism is a form of mental illness.

Take that, first law of thermodynamics

I only play an epidemiologist on tv, but your instincts are indeed correct.

All accurate (says a guy from an hour outside the city)

my expectation of democratic senators is that they find 1/10th of the bravery of your average 70 year old lutheran lady following ICE around mpls in her subaru crosstrek

An illustration of a Tufted Titmouse with angry eyebrows aggressively puffing up against the cold. The caption reads ‘FOOMP!’ which is the best onomatopoeia I could think to describe the sheer amount of floofination it must take to keep a little bird warm.

It’s cold.

So sorry.

I will forever be grateful to Publix frozen peas for their service after a particularly tender surgery

Is it prior restraint if we know a pun won’t survive agency clearance?
