Your periodic reminder that mRNA vaccines are a scientific and public health game-changer. Those that have been approved have passed stringent efficacy and safety checks. They protect you and your child against potentially fatal diseases. You may, however, get a sore arm.

YouTube video by The Guardian Patrick Stewart sketch: what has the ECHR ever done for us?

Well this couldn’t have come at a better time www.bbc.com/news/article...

Can't remember if you predicted this in the time capsule, but if so you're better than Justin's half right prediction last year!

Trump and Musk enter bitter feud - and Washington buckles up A knock-down fight between world's the richest person and the most powerful politician is playing out in public view.

Well, looks like I'm writing about Elon Musk and Donald Trump again today. As Ron Burgundy once said, that escalated quickly. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Great song and so glad Austria won
