Here’s the point I make. The St. Nicholas to Santa Claus progression would be as if in the year 3700, trillions of humans living on Mars started telling their kids that Mitt Romney traveled from his secret workshop on Venus to bring them gifts on Mother’s Day. And he’s morbidly obese.

St Nicholas was the bishop of Myra is in turkey. At the time he died, he was unaware that north or South America existed. For him, Gibraltar was the westernmost edge of the world. The limes germanicus, around the Danube river, represented the frontier and north of that was essentially terra incognito. He was a bishop, and wealthy. A true believer. He may have been at the council of nicea. Christmas for him was kind of a minor religious celebration, like it was at that time in the church.

The now cast Aqi sensor in #northbendwa is almost certainly malfunctioning as it currently reports excellent air quality despite every sensor in the region showing unhealthy air. Also, the air is visibly hazy and smells like fire. #northbend #snoqualmie #snoqualmiefalls #twinpeaks #mountsi

A surprisingly useful kitchen tool is an inexpensive pair of emt shears. They're great for everything from cutting pizza and herbs to opening boxes. Because they are designed to be autoclaved, you can toss them right inch the dishwasher. They're only a few dollars, so you can replace them as needed. Although ours last for several years. #kitchen #cooking

One of the strangest and best kitchen gadgets I own is an aluminum disc, 9 in in diameter and 0.5 inches thick. It sits atop the stove and perfectly distributes heat from the burner. My cast iron never has a hot spot. #cooking #kitchen

Is anybody in #pediatric_Health or #pediatrics noticing difficulty in obtaining analgesics or fever reducers? Amazon and target online are out of kids ibuprofen and acetaminophen. Our local #pharmacies are all out too. Seems to be an issue in both #seattle and #newJersey #MedMastodon #kidshealth #pharmacy
