This Physicist Says We Don’t Take COVID Seriously Enough | The Tyee We downplay the virus at our peril, warns Yaneer Bar-Yam. And children are more at risk than we thought.

“a global insurance firm that analyzes mortality risk pegged the # of excess deaths at 2% above the pre-pandemic annual mortality rate…that’s 120K unanticipated dead people per year in North America. That’s roughly 2 fully loaded standard commercial jets crashing & killing everyone aboard each day.”

Consistent kings

None more so!

Aww I want this for Felix so bad! But I feel like it’s gonna be a straight forward Jannik win.

Yay! 🥳 Super happy for H&H, love their partnership.

Long Covid is now the most common childhood illness (overtaking asthma), which kind of proves his point.

Imagine being world number 3 and getting one game. What a glorious reminder that is he isn’t and never will be good enough.

How many more matches does Felix have to win to overtake Musetti? Does anyone know?

I spoke to @haaretzcom.bsky.social about how Serbia never accepted responsibility for crimes it committed and I am afraid Israel will be the same.

I've said this about writing and art -- the goal was not to replace writers and artists with AI, the result was either:

a) *threaten* to replace them with AI, and use that as leverage to be able to pay them less

b) replace them unsuccessfully and pay them less to fix the shit the AI barfed out

This is amazing! Allergy friendly foods are SO much more expensive.

You left at the right time! Austerity started in 2010 and since then our healthcare system has been slowly collapsing, but we don’t yet have an insurance style system to take it’s place, so we’re just in a limbo period of people paying out of pocket if they can afford it, or if not going without.

At least I got to wear my new pin badge 🍉🇵🇸

Got my Covid booster today, thanks to a change in regulation by the health board I no longer qualify to get it for free and had to pay £130!! This is despite the fact my medical conditions haven’t changed, nor has the danger of catching Covid. I’ll be eating rice and beans for a while I think.

Yes, Lord of the Rings is about how you must trust the “hard men.” Just as Narnia is about an evil lion. And the New Testament tells a tale of a wimp who wouldn’t fight back. Next week on “fascists read classics,” we’ll meet tech visionary George Orwell…

The french crowd showing up at 11am on a Wednesday morning for the cousins ™️ rematch but never showing up for any match on Chatrier if it involves women and before 3pm is so quintessentially Parisian, it’s unreal
