I have a thank you in my tumblr mail. I have *no* idea what it's for, and his tumblr doesn't look familiar and I don't seem to have reblogged anything from him. I seem to be missing how you can see what messages you've sent, in case there was some sleeping pill typing happening...

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I am the vindow viper.

Oh god. I just sent out a thing to many colleagues about the Alzheimer's Walk I'm doing, and now I'm scared they are going to want to talk to me about my father, and I'm just not into that. Which is why I didn't send out anything broadly last year! Ugh, am now scared.
...and two people made gifts already. So nice!
Meta analysis shows modest but real effect of acupuncture in treating chronic pain.
Huh - that's very surprising (since no individual well-designed study has shown an effect). I'm curious what the numbers are for "real" meridian-points acupuncture vs random-needles-anywhere acupuncture. (I'm willing to believe that poking people with needles has a physiological effect, I'm really not willing to believe that it's because the needles are manipulating the flow of chi.)
I don't know how it works, but it has been mad effective for treatment of Beau's skin-related allergies. Seriously.
Today, I am a fountain pen.
Jessica goes Old School, yo.
My hand to God, that's exactly what I was going to post, and then I thought, "Way too dorky and obscure. Who else would even remember it, let alone get it?"
Truly, y'all are my tribe.
