People from Maine are never more excited than when Maine comes up. If we hear “Stephen King,” “lobster,” or “Acadia” we know it’s our time to shine
There is too much discussion of Maine happening, Platner, Bowdoin. We need to go back to the before times where the only time we would consider Maine was when a mufo would post a photo having found a rare bottle of delicious Lunch IPA somewhere else in the country.

ACOG reaffirms that acetaminophen is safe for managing pain and fever during pregnancy. No reputable studies support suggestions like those in HHS’s recent announcement linking acetaminophen use in pregnancy to autism; in fact, high-quality studies show no such risk. https://bit.ly/47Wxc59

what are your preferred oral opioids?
CYP2D6 is required to activate hydrocodone, tramadol, codeine, and oxycodone
this study found more pain-related ED visits in patients prescribed these meds who:
- were taking CYP2D6 inhibitors
- have less active CYP2D6 genotypes

Probably my favorite live album
The classic live album – At Fillmore East – was released today in 1971 on Capricorn. Impeccably produced by Tom Dowd, it was recorded in mid-March of 1971 – when the Allman Brothers Band was unquestionably at its peak. But in less than a year both Duane Allman and Berry Oakley would tragically pass.
