@WeirdBristol How is it making way while not under sail?

The replica of Cabot’s caravel boat the Matthew was built in 1996 and designed by naval architect Colin Mudie, who researched similar ships of the late 1400s in attempt to recreate the vessel as historically accurately as possible. 1/2

@Oldtimers365 Yup

@RealAirPower1 Norton bombsight

During WWII, the United States spent $1.5 billion developing this device - that's more than half the total cost of developing the atomic bomb. Do you know what it is? 😉

@TiffanyFong Irish linen handkerchiefs. Old school elegant, can be worn in a suit as a pocket square, and very useful for consoling the weeping and wiping fingerprints from the scene of the crime. Plus he’ll think of you every time he wears it near his heart in his suit breast pocket.

men can always buy women flowers or chocolates, but what’s the equivalent for men? what gifts can women buy men??? 😩

@rosenfeld_ro_ Absolutely. Sobering

@DPhilbinMD Fascinating chart have you seen data comparing the rapid growth of healthcare administrators versus physicians over the past decades, and how that imbalance might be driving these soaring costs.

Physicians who disagree may want to think a little bit about this chart.

@ECGMD @GenevaKwaku Congratulations!

So proud to celebrate my daughter’s White Coat Ceremony today at Tufts University School of Medicine. Congratulations @GenevaKwaku

@FXMC1957 Over 1 million Americans bore arms at the Ardennes in 1918. It remains the single largest battle (by numbers of combatants) Americans have ever fought.

25 July 2009. Henry Patch died (aged 111). He was the last surviving combat soldier of the First World War from any country and he became widely known as: “The Last Fighting Tommy.”

@jillowens @anish_koka Quod erat demonstrandum. Cutting payment to hospitals won’t solve this, unless we correct the economic and political forces that drove physicians into ownership models, where they are employees rather than directors of care. Doctors doctor well. Let them.

@DPhilbinMD @anish_koka Here you go. Staggering!

@SPuro88 End stage

I bought a shirt and a pair of shorts from Costco and wore them out together tonight. What stage of dad is this?

@AmiBhattMD @AmericanAir They actually did respond. With a generic “we’re doing our best for you” … written by AI?? but to be fair, the delay was minimal. It was the lack of information that was frustrating.

@DPhilbinMD @AmericanAir Sigh. Please tell me if they respond. I always wonder whether airlines monitor Twitter real time.

Hey ⁦@AmericanAir⁩ : monitors and app still post this flight as on time. As in boarding. Not only is there no aircraft at the gate, there’s not even a gate agent at the kiosk. Do better.

@IM_Crit_ @_radikalek What hubris, to suggest you could possibly choose just ONE procedure to respect and be worried about. Worry is the price of procedures.

If you have to choose 1 type of procedure to respect or be worried about, this has to be intubation In this prospective cohort study involving 18 emergency departments in Brazil (03/2022-04/2024), among 2846 patients, major adverse events occurred in 919 (32.3%) intubations
