I have another one for your fun facts about Axolotls eating their siblings limbs for a snack news.northeastern.edu/2019/10/21/n...

There’s some evidence to suggest that you can piggy back a bit off the flu vaccine for some Covid protection. So you can maybe space them 6 months apart to cover you for a year if you get it yearly.

I’m considering getting my Covid vaccine soon, before December - maybe this month still, especially as I don’t know what America will be doing with Covid vaccines. It may be harder for people (at least there) to get them. Are you off Covid vaccines permanently now? I’m considering doing it yearly.

I’m still wearing a respirator to protect myself and others, but have started to go out more regularly to eat or drink somewhere if it’s well ventilated. I still sometimes take my CO2 monitor with me. How about you?

Hey Michelle, thank you! Long time no see! I’m not on Bluesky much. I see you shared your diagnosis. I have a gut feeling I have AuDHD as well. Got hyper-fixation, OCD and a strong sense of justice. Haven’t looked into it. I’m keeping myself busy with various projects.

mRNA vaccines are safe, have been in development for decades, & have far broader applications than older vaccine technologies.

New vaccine technologies evolve when scientists have tools & knowledge to make something more elegant or complex that wasn’t possible before.

Just to be sure, ask your doctor what risks there are with the supplements you want to take, and mention other meds and supplements you are already taking. Some supplements might interfere with your existing meds.

Don’t fall for the scam. Listen to experts and read papers, then ask them questions about it.
Try not to supplement nutrients if you’re not deficient. Supplements are unregulated so risks exist, like unknown ingredients (eg heavy metals) and excess nutrients.

If you are not already, please consider masking in public, especially in places where people have no choice but to go
- including public transit, grocery stores, and medical centers (especially medical centers).
Doing so could literally save someone's life.

Do combined vaccines exist yet?

A carnist can use the same argument - if you were meant to eat potatoes and beans, you'd eat it raw! If you were meant to eat rice, you'd not cook it. If you were meant to eat bread it would grow on trees, and so on. If you think those are bad arguments, stop using the same kind of argument!

Please stop using this argument. It suggests that humans should not do anything that is not "natural". Want to get somewhere - don't use a car, plane or bicycle - that's not how we moved. Want to take medicine - it's not natural - so don't listen to doctors.... - that's the reasoning this supports.

What are your favourite respirators?
Do you wear them outdoors in summer or just in winter to keep warm?
