Listen, there's no profile pic; you just gotta deal with that. He/they enby whatever in the leaf place. Wear a mask to protect yourself against COVID; it's airborne. Free Palestine, and bring the genociders to justice.

Living with Long COVID often feels like living in a horror movie. Along with your disease comes a creepy Hive Mind refusal to acknowledge the dangers of COVID infection. In Vince Gilligan's new Apple TV show Pluribus, the Hive Mind comes to life:

"Pluribus" captures the isolation of COVID-awareness in a COVID denialist world
For years I've described having Long COVID as living in a horror movie. Now that horror movie (well, prestige Apple TV show) is here.

Well these are some awfully low numbers. Good to keep in mind for timing your shot, and a *great* reminder to mask consistently.

Researchers looked at 1.8M Americans. (Only ~13% got the 2024–25 COVID shot)
🔸Protection against infection was ~45% at 4 weeks, ~36% at 10 weeks, and ~17% at 20 weeks
🔸Protection against ER visits was 45% → 43% → 39%
🔸Strongest was against hospitalisation/death: 57% → 50% → 34%

Sneaking it in with less than an hour to go, my final Candy Corn Vagina Dentata reskeet of the year. It will be another eleven months before I go on this frenzy again.
Annual reminder, for an easy Halloween craft, stack your candy corn to resemble a vagina dentata.

You know, the USDA used to be useful. They put out cookbooks for schools for years, all intended to serve hundreds of kids for around (a constant) $1.35 per meal.
And if you loved school pizza, the secret is the Pourable Pizza Crust. (As well as the school rolls.)

Pierre Pollivere's life is a Greek tragedy. He gets to have everything he wanted, but it gets implemented by his rival.
Our border officers are essential to our security— keeping drugs, guns, and criminals out of our communities.
So, we’re investing in the Canada Border Services Agency to hire 1,000 new officers who will keep our borders secure and our streets safe.

There is an actual life-changing conflict between WFH being cheaper and more efficient, an entire layer of middle managers who need to have meetings to feel alive, and the commercial real estate cabal that runs all cities. It’s going to get so fucking weird.
remote work is like birth control or UBI atp where there’s overwhelming research consensus they improve quality of life for people they apply to, yet access is impeded or blocked by the ruling class because the thought of marginalized ppl having rich full lives makes steam come out their ears
2. Rolling Stone is owned by a large media conglomerate, which is ending remote work across its brands.
My home is Portland, Oregon, ~1,000 miles from the nearest office, so this marks the end of the line for me at RS.
