Sounds like the right call
It’s some kind of life metaphor I’m not clever enough to articulate

Yup. It’s that or a whole ultrasound probe. Guess you could choose 🤷🏻‍♂️

Love that I can blame that on Trump too!

This is the basketball we grew up with. Don’t understand when the passive switch became so acceptable
Great game and great win!

It taught me to stop washing my legs

It’s such a tough time. My wife and I (both medical) always thought if we could be performing at 70 percent at home and work that was all we could reasonably expect of ourselves.

Hang in there everyone. Be kind to yourself, you are doing amazing!

There is a lot to be stressed, upset, sad and scared about these days. But every now and then you catch a glimpse of a sign language interpreter signing Sir Mix-a-Lot’s Baby Got Back (and killing it!) and you realize we are going to be ok.

Heard in the RFK hearings:

“When you continue to sow doubt about settled science, it makes it impossible for us to move forward”

Thank you Senator Hassan!

No one thinks we shouldn’t ask questions but conflating that with relitigating established knowledge undermines public trust and safety.

I had march 1st in my breakup pool!

Reading the comments with interest as a Canadian Gen Xer who identifies as liberal. Have to admit it’s hard to weed out the noise. Anyone want to summarize both sides of the argument for me?

No better sign of middle age than the awkward handshake/fist bump/bro hug confusion

Happy to help! Think of the fat as a signal that something may be going on but not the actual source of the problem. Similar to seeing water white spots in your tonsils can mean you have strep but if they test and it’s negative they can stop worrying about it

The only caveat is they may consider a small bowel MR or CT to make sure there isn’t inflammation higher up.

It’s somewhat subjective, especially at the time of surgery. Likely an overcall on the part of the surgeon. If colonoscopy and biopsies ok then that is very reassuring that there is no Inflammatory Bowel Disease.

Glow from Palisades fire as seen from Hermosa Pier this evening. Can smell the smoke all the way in the South Bay, can’t imagine what it’s like closer.
To think we almost moved there. Scary times folk

Ummmm

Played it for my teenagers yesterday!

One episode into “The man on the inside” has only reinforced Ted Danson as the best comedic actor of my lifetime. Not even sure who is second?

How many electoral votes would Canada have? Wouldn’t it guarantee democratic rule indefinitely?
(Mental exercise only!)

Ntmu! Canadian trained gastroenterologist recently relocated to sunny california. Lots of ibd management in past and hopefully going forward!

Interior Chinatown?
Anyone?
Maybe biased toward two great characters (Robyn from Dave and Jian Yang from Silicon Valley) but it’s kinda good? Right?

Totally agree as fellow Gen x

I could go on…

Anyone else find the “No Loitering” sign at the DMV ironic?

Came here to say this!
