This paper was retracted in May for being too saucy (or because it was published early by mistake). Finally, it's out (again)!

A parody of AI-infused healthcare education that feels less farcical each day. With @insideoutanatomy.bsky.social
You guys! I never thought I'd live to see the day! Praise be to the Anatomical Sciences Education journal! 🫶 💫
A lack of gender diversity in maths means technologies such as AI and quantum computing are mainly designed by – and for – men.
NEW: The first two years of Massachusetts' millionaire tax has raised $3 billion more than expected.
And rather than driving the rich away, IPS researchers found that the number of millionaires has *increased.*
Tax the rich. Greg Ryan in @bloomberg.com:
Professors don't have the mind-control indoctrination superpowers some folks seem to think we do. We can't even get students to read the syllabus.
Big tech wants generative AI systems to seem like neutral, reliable tools – but the reality is far more complicated.

I love my job. Most people respect the sanctity of weekends by not sending work comms over this time.
However, you can tell that to keep on top of it all, many schedule emails for 8 am Monday b/c by 8:01 am my inbox floods.

9. Conclusion This review investigates the multi-organ consequences of COVID-19, demonstrates how much more than the respiratory system is impacted by SARS-CoV-2. Based on clinical, pathological and biomarker analyses in the first half of 2025, we reported long-term damage in ten physiological systems: cardiovascular, neurological, renal, hepatic, immune and psychological systems. This review is unique in the way the outcomes of various disciplines are combined and attention is reflected on similar processes which are endothelial dysfunction, chronic inflammation and microvascular damage. These overlapping circles provide an understanding of how the same viral infection may lead to several chronic diseases, such as heart inflammation, brain fog, kidney damage and immune malfunction, even in those with initially mild symptoms. In summary, this article provides a coherent framework through which clinicians and researchers can comprehend, diagnose and treat post-acute COVID-19 complications. It also indicates promising agents, including antifibrotics and immunomodulators which may have the potential to minimize or reverse organ injury. In conclusion, COVID-19 cannot be simply regarded as a respiratory disease; it should also be considered a more systemic disease that leaves long-term effects. To consider effective clinical care approaches to public health and research priorities after the pandemic, a more comprehensive understanding of its silent multi-organ effects is required

Alberta chiropractor gets suspended over sexual assault and credible risk to public. A judge reversed it. Criminal charges still pending though, at least 12. Please share. There may be more victims to come forward. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
On my 54 page document, find and replace only replaced 283 double spaces with single spaces.
I think I'm improving.
There are MANY more opportunities than are even listed here. Shortages of almost every kind of doc or nurse in many parts of the country. Less so in big centres but let me put a plug in for the small cities! I have only a 20min commute, great standard of living, and very collegial work environment.
Lots of misinformation in the comments. The science shows that COVID vaccines reduce transmission, including for recent variants. A 2024 CDC study showed that people who received the updated COVID vaccine were 54% less likely to get COVID-19.
Same! Except my disappointment was because it wasn't a clothing store like in USA 😅
Which chocolate is your favourite?
Great idea!
I am an expat now, so I've got full access to delicious chocolate everywhere I go.
5 out 5. Highly recommend.
Unexpected side effects? Preferential voting and a work-life balance that is, well, more balanced.
Same!
I thought i didn't like chocolate growing up.
I was wrong.
I didn't like USA chocolates.

This is the reference I'm referring to.
Though our article was written well before Mr. Bill made headlines, the article is just published in the public sphere.
@glaucomflecken.bsky.social in the spirit of humour & the religion of parody, we bring you the dys, I mean *U*topian future of healthcare AI.
Maybe @billgates.com was right?

👋 Hi, we’re Unbreaking, a volunteer-run collective working to document our current moment of institutional collapse and its human costs—as well as the pushback and resilience work already underway. We believe this is critical work for building and retaining political agency.
I'm now convinced that @melrobbins.bsky.social advice to get out of bed as soon as the alarm goes off comes from someone who lives in an adequately insulated home.
This advice cannot be for, or from, anyone living in southern Australia during winter.
