HAPPENING NOW: A massive crowd is gathered in freezing temperatures outside ICE headquarters in DC to demand ICE OUT OF ALL COMMUNITIES NOW.

A line-and-bar chart titled “COVID-19 notifications and test positivity by notification week, WA, 2023 to 2025 YTD.” Blue bars show weekly PCR-confirmed COVID-19 cases, while a black line shows test positivity. Multiple waves appear across 2023–2025, with peaks over 1,400 cases and positivity above 14%. By November 2025, both cases and positivity are low: around 100 weekly cases and a positivity rate just above 2%. The x-axis shows week-ending dates from January 2023 to November 2025.

A bar chart titled “7-day average of COVID-19 cases currently in hospital or in ICU, WA, 2023 to 2025 YTD.” Blue bars show the number of hospitalised COVID-19 patients, and small orange bars show ICU cases. Several waves appear across 2023–2025, with hospitalisations peaking around 250 at the highest points. ICU numbers remain very low throughout, typically 1–5 cases. By November 2025, hospitalisations have fallen to around 17 per day and ICU remains at 1 case. The x-axis displays week-ending dates from January 2023 to November 2025.

A line graph titled “SARS-CoV-2 concentration in wastewater and COVID-19 notification rate, Perth metropolitan area, WA, 2023 to 7 Nov 2025.” A blue dotted line shows the 14-day weighted average of wastewater viral concentrations, with major peaks in late 2023 and mid-2024 reaching above 25,000 genome copies per 50mL. A yellow line shows the 14-day average COVID-19 case rate per 100,000 people, which rises in tandem with the wastewater peaks but stays much lower, generally under 40 cases per 100,000. By November 2025, both wastewater levels and case rates are very low, sitting near zero. The x-axis displays week-ending dates from January 2023 to November 2025.

A graphic titled “Distribution of SARS-CoV-2 variants in clinical samples (top) and metropolitan wastewater catchments (bottom), 03 July 2022 to 09 November 2025.” The figure shows two long horizontal stacked bar charts, each divided by week. Each colour represents a different SARS-CoV-2 variant or sub-lineage. In the clinical samples (top), the variant landscape shifts frequently over time, with earlier dominance by various BA.2- and BA.5-related lineages, then transitions through recombinants and emerging Omicron descendants. By late 2025, BA.3.2.X (shown in blue) predominates. In the wastewater samples (bottom), variant patterns broadly mirror the clinical data but fade out toward the end of the timeline due to low SARS-CoV-2 concentrations, preventing recent wastewater sequencing. A note explains that the “X” indicates inclusion of descendant lineages and that recent weeks of clinical sequencing are removed to avoid skew or misinterpretation.

🔹PCR cases: 107 (+32.0%)

A very large illustration of all 13 of the main cast all with their reactions to Thjazi's execution. The designs are different from the canon ones, some more than others.

My first Campaign 4 art, and as is tradition, I came up with my own takes on the characters going mostly from the in-game descriptions & vibes during the first episode as a fun character design challenge that I do each campaign

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE HAPPY HELLO SUNSHINE DAY!! ☀️☀️☀️

as a fan of noncon, dubcon and under/non-negotiated cnc this is honestly one of the most straightforward explanations of this i've ever read?

A teenager turning into a bird, Animorphs cover style "Getting raptured? No thanks I'm getting raptored"

Stolen from an Animorphs Facebook group.

“We are told by leaders that we are the future. But when it comes to the ongoing pandemic, our present is being stolen right in front of our eyes.”

Incredible speech by Violet Affleck who warned about the ongoing dangers of COVID & Long Covid, & advocated for masks and clean air at the UN today!

A man in orange plaid jacket and brown labourer's trousers jumps into the arms of their boyfriend, who is wearing red plaid and blue jeans. He seems taken by surprise but ready to catch them. Both are wearing flat caps and brown work boots. Although their faces are partially obscured, you can see that they are both smiling.

Styled like a wedding portrait: a man in a dark grey morning suit and a woman in an opulent cream-coloured dress with a draping train. Her outfit has floral embroidery and flower details. She's using a cane on her left side, and he's in black work boots. They both wear crowns of white flowers. He's gazing at her, and she looks regal and self-satisfied.

Love in the Time of Lumberjackals! 🌲

i grind my teeth at night and it really makes my jaw hurt so i searched for ways to stop grinding your teeth and the number one suggestion was "reduce the amount of stress you experience." what are you talking about. what are you even talking about, dude

I think the really important thing about the "trans sports debate" is that it's NOT REAL, the things that people are fearmongering about are NOT REAL and are NOT HAPPENING. Cis women are not competing at a disadvantage against trans women, cis men aren't transitioning to win at sports, IT'S NOT REAL

I knew we were cooked as a society when everyone just sorta decided they were sick of dealing with Covid and everyone just decided to pretend like it wasn't a thing anymore.
