He's so missed. He and Cronenberg are my top two favs. David had such a unique vision. I feel like that comforting presence of realism, yet surrealism, has dimmed with his passing.

Prof of anthropology at @uofsc.bsky.social and bioarchaeologist that studies the biological impact of marginalization,skeletal health disparities, medical history, & ethics. Trifles matter! History matters! Also a Sherlockian.

We could use more canon quotes in these times my friend.

A black and white illustration of a man's head. His eye is being held open while a doctor removes the cataract.
Surgery on the eye for the removal of a cataract, late 19th century. During this period, cataract removal typically involved cutting a flap in the cornea and extracting the lens. #histmed #histsci
Illustration of Amud 1 cranium. Text: This partial skeleton was unearthed in 1961 during excavations led by Hisashi Suzuki. This individual lived sometime between 65,000 and 50,000 years ago. Anthropologists have often classified the skeleton as a Neandertal, and it does share many features of its skull and mandible with European Neandertals. But other traits of its skull and postcranial skeleton resemble modern people, suggesting that the story is not so simple. Today it seems likely that this person belonged to a population with ancestry from multiple Pleistocene groups.

Most of y'all know I can be followed on facebook, but out of curiousity, as I re-negotiate this social media landscape, I'm curious to know why people actually follow me? Some of y'all I know why, but just curious.
