How come the last two COVID-19 vaccines I’ve received given me no side effects. Like I remember this used to be the only vaccine that would give me a fever for 2 days and feel like I’ve been hit by a bus; now nothing. Where’s the pizzazz? The kick? Is this thing on?

If you’re 25 chapters into a book ‘hanging on until it gets better’ is some silly dork advice. Nah, my darling, it’s just not for you. Set it aside and read what you enjoy. Dragging yourself through a book you don’t vibe with is silliness. Time for reading isn’t always plentiful! Read what you love!

In January 2025, the Trump administration removed some important web pages from the CDC website about sexual and reproductive health.

Everyone should have access to the information they need to live healthy lives, so we're posting these resources from the CDC here 👉 p.ppfa.org/CDC-pages

I'm at a meeting at my public library. It is a community garden orientation, and plots are very cheap. Volunteer hours are used for maintenance and growing food for soup kitchens and the community. The org is supported by a local non profit.

This is one of many things public libraries do. Fund them

There are now more than 120 confirmed measles cases linked to an outbreak in western Texas, the largest such outbreak the state has seen in over 30 years. It's raising questions about vaccine hesitancy in some communities and the growing challenge of these periodic outbreaks.

yall better have library cards. Some (most!!) public library systems have seed libraries and libraries of things where you can borrow things you may not need to own.

Also libraries are revolutionary and librarians have always been on the front lines
