Yup, this. When our kiddo was young, our doctor (no longer our doctor!) was iffy on the flu shot. (He also loved to give antibiotics for viral infections!) So we listened, didn't get the shot. Then I got the flu and it kiiiiicked my ass. Flu shots forever after that. Give me all the vaccines.
Speaking entirely for myself: for years, I didn't really get flu shots. It was entirely because of laziness.
Then, in 2014ish, I got insanely sick — sickest I've ever been, tbh. Collapsed on my kitchen floor. Lost my sense of smell for a month.
It was the flu.*
I get a flu shot every year now.

Yes, you can still get a flu shot. Tips for staying healthy with cases on the rise.

If you're reporting on the deepfake porn site because of Grok, please make clear in the headline that governments not acting are allowing the scaled abuse of women and children online.
Don't say Grok is doing that harm. Grok isn't doing anything. It's human men who are doing these things.

A Washington Post article suggests that, beyond a certain threshold, larger homes don't make people happier. Instead, well-being is correlated with affordable housing in walkable neighborhoods where they feel socially connected.

![Excerpt reads: "Prioritize your neighborhood
Neighborhoods drive our happiness (or unhappiness) more than we think.
When Lina Martinez, director of POLIS, the Center for Wellbeing Studies at Universidad Icesi in Colombia, studied the happiness of households in the city of Cali, she couldn’t find much difference between poorer and richer areas. “Their happiness is pretty much the same,” she said. But that changed when she isolated neighborhood conditions, such as access to transit, health care and parks. “The conditions of the neighborhood affect happiness,” she said. “I can’t link that to the space where [people] live.”
That aligns with findings from a 2023 study of the Vancouver metro area: Researchers found no significant differences in well-being between people living in single detached homes, duplexes, townhouses, laneway houses and apartment buildings (basement units smaller than 300 square feet were the only negative exception). What did people say they missed most in their neighborhood? Affordability, proximity to family and friends, and a sense of community. Home design was eighth on the list."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ks3gpa6ftoyaq7hmf6c4qx4c/bafkreicapfknasylzk2lqzaxxeb5mchgnru75obggn45dusda6j5zogvuu@jpeg)
