You know what they say, the camera subtracts 50% of fullwitted harpy

Did the thing that I do every year, where I rank every movie I've seen that was released in the calendar year. Anyways, here's the top 20 (out of 93)

CCR Down Under 2025 Original Article | Dec. 9, 2025 | NEJM.org Ketamine or Etomidate for Tracheal Intubation of Critically Ill Adults Figure 1. In-Hospital Death, According to Trial Group. The NEJM identity sits at the bottom.

In a randomized trial involving critically ill patients undergoing intubation in EDs or ICUs, the use of ketamine for the induction of anesthesia did not lead to significantly lower in-hospital mortality than etomidate. Full trial results: nej.md/44EOlxB

Haven't been here in a hot minute. So anyways, I made some seekh kebabs

Come to Canada

Spent an entire week just watching movies at TIFF and this is how my personal favourites shook out

Just one of those days ending in y spent thinking about this gorgeous movie

Did a little mid-year check-in for my 2025 movie rankings

Reminder: tube feeding for the treatment of dementia is nonbeneficial.

Yes, this is counter-intuitive.

But it's been established for decades.

Evidence & guidelines indicate that tube feeding doesn't prolong survival or confer clinical benefit.

Toronto this weekend looks like a scene right out of a Villeneuve movie. Easy on the eyes, rough on the lungs.

I'm so sorry for your loss, Bryan

New Cole haans? I dig it

In spirit. Hopefully eventually in technique as well

Some more fun with film

Yeah. Figured I'd start with something cheap/entry level

Started playing around with 35mm half-frame

If you're looking to change it up, would highly recommend making chana chaat by tossing them in some cilantro, mint leaves, onions, and chaat masala (+/- tomatoes, tamarind paste, and chili powder if so inclined)

Seeing SINNERS in IMAX on a 70mm film that was resurrected just in time for my showing. It's Easter indeed

Always add that second carb imo

as a pedestrian, i hate cyclists because sometimes they’re assholes and they almost hit me with their bikes. that’s why i support any measure that cuts down on cycling and forces those same assholes to use a 3,000 lb killing machine instead.

fantastic investigator thread about delving deeper into the BALANCE trial (7 vs 14 day antibiotics for bacteremia) to look for heterogeneity of treatment effect 😁

I was allready a BALANCE trial fanboy… this analysis makes it even more appealing. #EMIMCC

They had the right idea

S2E8 of Severance, and yet neither I nor the show seem to have any idea where the story is going. Existing for the sake of itself

a proper investment in healthcare would look like doctors seeing 10 to 12 patients a day instead of 20-40. People don’t trust doctors for many reasons but one common factor is they do not feel like the doctor is listening, which is extremely hard to do in such short visits. AI won’t help.
