Since I stopped watching around episode 3 or 4, something I’m curious about: did the show ever figure out what it was trying to be?

Oddly, the biggest complaint people have are very vivid dreams

A friend recently turned me onto using creme fraiche instead of cheese for scrambled eggs, and it’s fantastic. Just a bit of a problem finding it cheaply, although one Costco nearby has it semi-regularly (and another rarely.)

I’ve been on montelukast for like 15 years and it’s made a tremendous difference for my allergies. Fantastic drug.

I think when we get to a later point in time where we can review what’s been going on that we’re going to find the prepping community played a role in fanning the flames of encouraging people to stockpile everything.

On a related note about cold weather cheesecake, the ones that I made in December in mason jars, vacuum sealed, sous vided at a fairly high temp for a couple hours, and left in the back of the fridge (I ignored them in favor of a similarly made creme brulee and a fairly new and tasty commercially available low carb…

A lot of the HBO movies of the 90s and early 00s were extremely difficult to find until pretty recently.  If you missed it in the first year or two it’s entirely possible you’d never see them, let alone have heard of them.

My favorite role of his was an obscure one: a psychiatrist who profiled and once caught eventually used his report to break down the Soviet Union’s most prolific serial killer, Andrei Chikatilo, in 1995's Citizen X.

I binged Babylon Berlin’s third season.

It’s a site that has been vetted by some pretty reputable MDs and the 0% fatality rate to date for pedes under 10 has been confirmed by a JAMA article which states the same thing, but if you’ve got better sources I’m all ears.

This is also the general comment you’ll hear from many ER docs. Their intern year ends up being even more terrible than their peers, since it’s not just the workload but also because they’re getting exposed to nearly every germ on the planet.

I was actually just talking about this with a crit care friend who has a 2 year old.

Pentagon-backed poll conducted by the Palm Center

Eh, that’s usually how servicemembers and veterans are also used on G/O (and in fairness, other outlets too) - their inclusion is solely a matter of the blogger making a point about something else, and then they’re just supposed to fade away. God forbid if anyone should bring up something like the suicide rate among…

Oddly enough, it was World War I’s requirement for gas masks that caused the then-decades long trendiness of beards to go the way of the dodo bird, so it’d probably be fitting if another trend gets chopped off for medical reasons too.

Aunt Mar is anxious and doesn’t know how to control it.

Yeesh. That sounds terrible.

I watched Washington and generally liked it.

This one is not nearly as bad as yours or most of the others on this thread (I’ve had a few of those too), but your story is similar enough to remind me of it.

The Z drugs are hypnotics and can indeed cause hallucinations, which is probably where the ‘accident’ comes in. More importantly, they get geometrically more potent when mixed with other CNS depressants like alcohol or opioids - to the point where they’re a major component in unintentional deaths from respiratory…
