Norovirus is up again this winter.
Fecal to oral transmission - by particles invisible to naked eye.

Wash your hands with soap & water frequently. Hand sanitizers don't work against norovirus.

For dehydration, keep supplies of water with electrolytes like Pedialyte (yes, it's also for adults)

Since Dad's gone that means we are deprived of his years of research with resulting opinions on infections current in the community.

So, I thought I'd give it a whirl -even though my expertise consists of Dad's giant "Microbiology" book, smatterings of ADHD hyperfocus & great science journals.

Tesla fires.

The symbolism about Musk and the coming presidency of Trump are just uncanny.

My mind continues to compare it to the Ford Pinto in danger, sheer ugliness & lawsuits.
My thoughts to the family and friends of the person who died and those who were hurt.

I blame the loss of five friends on Reagan due to his homophobia.

To the guys: I miss you still. Particularly you Bob.

To anyone who still thinks Reagan wasn't so bad, read some more history of the time. Ask anyone who was a single parent during those years.
In 1979, Jimmy Carter had solar panels installed at the White House.

Ronald Reagan had them removed.

We may be able to trace back the current "Do Harmful Things if it Trolls the Libs" Republicanism to Reagan removing those panels the far more forward thinking Carter had installed.

Watch who you are following and who is following you.

After reviewing, I found a name that seems benign but when you do a deep dive, the website will shock you when you run into the racism.

A web search of the name was even more bothersome.

There is absolutely no doubt that Elon Musk is a Nazi and an anti-semite -- and he is the President-elect of the United States. This is beyond concerning.

I beg you to re-post this so that every single American is aware of the fact that Musk is a Nazi and that his colleagues are, too.

Found the community center we used to go to as teenagers.
Back in time
Blaupunkt car stereos
The sound of Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon
The feel of soft green grass on our backs
Windowpane LSD
His hand in mine
The sound of my bff's laughter.

Man, google maps can make you OD on nostalgia.

For folks wanting to understand the legacy media's capitulation to Trump and also why Jimmy Carter wasn't seen as a successful president, an explainer thread on the relationship between the press and the president. (from Twitter, Jan 9, 2021--I'm leaving it as it was, except fixing typos) 🧵

Jimmy Carter spent his post-presidency preaching kindness and building homes for those without homes.

Donald Trump spent his post-presidency screeching about vengeance and threatening to yank people from their homes to deport them.
Jimmy Carter, who died on Sunday at age 100, spent his childhood on a peanut farm and returned there after serving in the Navy. His political career took him to Atlanta, the White House and beyond. Here is a timeline of the former president’s life. nyti.ms/4035qyu

Last night I saw a young woman acting strange and suspiciously in the grocery store.

That confused young face ... I could have cried.

I gave her all the cash I had so she could eat.

I have hope that somewhere on the streets of L.A., someone is helping my mentally ill daughter get some food.

Rest in peace to Submariner LT James Earl Carter Jr, USN (Ret). Carter, the only U.S. President to graduate from the U.S. Naval Academy, leaves a legacy of service. The USS Jimmy Carter (SSN-23), a Seawolf-class fast-attack submarine, carries his name in honor of his dedication to our nation.

Someone should tell Elon Musk to stop his yapping and get to work on the car we were all expecting by now.

If there ever was a question about whether or not Musk has Borderline Personality Disorder, this should end the question.
Wait.

Isn’t this the go F yourself in the face guy?

He’s all over the place trying to rescue the sinking ship and has no clue how.

Hint-Would probably be a good idea to start with laying off the ketamine.
