Should you wear a mask if you've got symptomatic flu? YES. If you wear it at home *from the onset of your symptoms*, your family members are much less likely to catch flu from you (but you must avoid unmasked co-sleeping and eating around same table - have your meals alone). 1/

The Tasselled Wobbegong is a master of disguise that can eat a fish almost as big as itself in one gulp. It's classified as a shark, but when it lays on the sea floor it looks like a harmless rug if you manage to see it. But with powerful jaws and sharp teeth they are no fish to mess with.

The first two bullet points are jargon-dense :(
The key takeaway: Getting a booster that's different from your original shots, and choosing the updated versions that target current variants, gave people substantially better protection against COVID-19 infection

The change to vaccine requirements will kill children in the US.
The fact people can get get vaccines against diseases is a fucking privilege we get.
And this isn’t a “they voted for this” thing.
Those kids didn’t get a choice in this.
This disgusts me and I hope it disgusts you too.

The most precious commodity you have is your attention. You don’t have to waste it on poor-faith debates or arguments with strangers if you don’t think they’ll be productive. You can prioritize the things that matter to you and make your life richer.

To this day I will choose to watch a movie I've never seen because I remember its cover artwork from the video store. Browsing through media, being open to its various possibilities, exposes you to the unexpected. It can plant seeds in the mind that may take decades to bloom.
The death of browsing is part of the reason art is the way it is now. Our opinions are largely fed to us by algorithms. Spending a spare 15 minutes wandering around a bookstore or comic shop or video rental place was how you found stuff you wouldn't ordinarily pick up and thereby expanded your taste
Bookselling is like the most "people go to the store and buy what looks cool to them without a particular agenda" type business left, and your purchases have a huge influence on what is ordered, what is displayed, and what is recommended.

Be kind to developers. They work hard to make good things.
Company management anywhere are never your friends. Unless forced, they will always try to get more money from you than you already pay, or reduce what you already receive for the same $. Don’t forget that. Complain early, complain often.
