FYI even if you have been vaccinated you may still need to get a booster.

TDLR: if you were vaccinated in the 1960s you may need a whole new course of boosters. Also, if you were vaccinated before 1989, you may need one additional shot, since the 2-shot model wasn’t recommended by the CDC until then.

Stay safe out there folks.

It would be great if our legislators would serve reasonable term lengths instead of coasting on name recognition and being the lesser of two evils in reelections and literally stroking out at press conferences.

My husband still browses Reddit regularly and when I asked him about this he said that the r/tattoos has definitely been taken over by AI training. A lot of the posts there are photos of tattoos with generic questions like “what is this style of tattoo called” or “how long would a tattoo like this last”. The only useful results I’ve found recently are from years ago, and even then a lot of searches lead to discussions with a ton of deleted responses.

I went to the last one in DC. It was cold and rainy but everyone was in good spirits and having fun. Was great to be around all the other science needs. Got to hear Bill Nye speak in person.

I didn’t find out about this one until a couple weeks out. I could have still gone, but this time around I just don’t have the emotional strength to deal with everything going on and put on a good face for the sake of solidarity. I hope it was as good of an event this time and will be with them in spirit.

This is a seriously stupid issue.

Why can’t we deal with this like twitters name change where everyone basically ignores it and just keeps calling it the same name as before?
