Sometimes NSFW.
There are good vaccines and bad vaccines. The measles vaccine is a well tested and documented vaccine. Sadly, Covid vaccines were not and there are way too many vaccine injuries, myself included, that now contributes to vaccine hesitancy. Financial support has to be given to the vaccine injured now!

When I taught Advanced Placement Physics B (algebra-based) or C (calculus-based), I was sad AP Physics A (limited math, mostly concepts, for Arts students) was never offered. It would’ve been good for journalists.

Try to communicate how to bake a cake without getting technical like temperature or quantity or method (folding vs mixing). Is it possible?

Last year, I looked at my masters thesis (online) which I wrote decades ago and some of it I do not understand now.

Innate intelligence can only compensate so much.
intelligence will not help ignorance of terminology, never mind understanding complex science processes, never mind a research topic.

I find it amazing that people expect experts to condense many years of difficult university courses into simple language.

Imagine a 5-yr old asking you how a car engine works and to make it understandable.

We need educators and science news journalists.

Flag jacking is not a Canadian thing to do.

I heard some Canadians use a Tim Horton’s mug while backpacking.

I suspect signaling issue in the neuroimmune network. Worried about CSF leaks if doctors do tests. Non-invasive tests like MRI, MRS, qEEG would be nice.

Even with adult only flights there will be adults who never matured. I had strict parents & I was much more considerate than my siblings. But I think kids are given too much latitude in misbehavior. Apple doesn’t fall far from the tree… usually.

Great idea! Thanks! I have a folding stool but it is so flimsy and I'm only 150-lbs. This would be stronger.
