I can't even imagine how life changing this could be for immune compromised people.
GOOD NEWS! Researchers have revealed a synthetic glycosystem -a sugar-coated polymer nanoparticle- that can BLOCK SARS-CoV-2 from infecting human cells, REDUCING infection rates by NEARLY 99%. Acting as a decoy, the molecule BINDS to the spike protein, PREVENTING it from attaching to real cells.

New Scam:
Someone will message you on here and tell you they accidentally reported your account claiming there's one similar in name and avatar as yours. They will then ask you for your Discord ID so they can send you the image of the ticket since you can't send images on Bluesky.
Block them.

A fantastic thread with numbers. It's one of an almost endless pile of examples that the idea that tariffs will bring manufacturing back is wildly unrealistic as things stand. I can't see any way to change that at all without massive governmental investment and a decade+ depending on the industry.
So, in my current effort to understand & navigate the current tariff wars as I continue to ramp up my Indian tarot card project, I did my best to calculate out the costs, as well as understand validity of going with US print shops vs Chinese print shops.

Well I feel a lot better about the first bookshelf even though it still needs all of the finishing pieces for the front. Somehow seeing it with a little stuff on it is very comforting. I hope I can get the whole library structure done before we get visitors 😅

One change I am begging for from businesses is please don't follow me to get me interested in your business. I hated that on the dead bird app and I hate I now. And if you do a follow unfollow I can guarantee a block. Thanks and try to treat me like a human being and not an ATM.

I love this story more every time I hear it
I was at a shitty crustpunk bar once getting an after-work beer. One of those shitholes where the bartenders clearly hate you. So the bartender and I were ignoring one another when someone sits next to me and he immediately says, "no. get out."

So I had a tooth extracted last week. Not my first. But I guess I'm just getting super old cuz I'm so damned exhausted from this one. I just want to go into torpor until I feel better 😭 Maybe it's just because I have a kid, I don't know.

It's hard to understand how other cis ppl don't see how this will affect them negatively. But I guess it's just so easy to trick us that it's embarrassing.

Having the little dude home full time while I try to get him across the line with potty training is maybe the most exhausting thing I've ever done. I barely have a moment of the day not frustrated. Its just so much 😮💨

I'm convinced this is one of the most obnoxious days to have a birthday. Mostly because it's mine and I hate that there is always election junk surrounding it. Best wishes everyone! Luckily I get to spend this birthday with my best little buddy!
