Day 10 β€” Wild Blueberry - Lychee - Rose: "This was fine. Kinda just tasted like watered down blueberry jam. I'm not sure these flavors benefit each other."

Day 9 β€” Madagascar Vanilla Caramel: "It tasted like caramel, which is cool, but we just had a caramel, and I want jams. However, it was Heather's birthday and Heather loves caramel, so. Can't be too mad."

Facebook wanting to help people "cut through the clutter" is like if I came to your house every day for 20 years and threw a bunch of trash everywhere, and then showed up when you were drowning in cans and wrappers like, "Oh wow, why'd you make such a mess? Here, let me help you out."

Graphic from The Sick Times sharing the latest COVID-19 trends for December 9, 2025. The graphic presents trends for three metrics: WastewaterSCAN category for SARS-CoV-2, which is "high" (represented with an orange color) and reports a slight increase (represented with a diagonal up arrow); CDC wastewater viral activity level for SARS-Cov-2, which is "very low*" (lighter yellow) and stable (represented with a right to left arrow); and CDC COVID-19 test positivity, which is moderate (darker yellow) and stable. Text below these metrics reads: "* CDC wastewater viral activity levels are calculated based on measurements in the last two years only. They do not account for the lower spread that could be possible with more widespread precautions."

COVID-19 trends for the last week of November are similar to the rest of the month: disease levels are increasing in the Midwest and Northeast, but less so in the West and South. Meanwhile, flu spread is accelerating faster than COVID-19 spread. bit.ly/3MyjHQm

Day 8 β€” White Nectarine - Peach - Lemon Verbena: "It goes on a journey where sometimes I like it and sometimes I do not. The lemon makes it a little artificial-y, but I still find it kinda pleasant."

I’m so glad gay men watching Heated Rivalry are finally getting what us queer gals have been getting with the WNBA and USWNT all these year!

Neighbor: Thank you so much for doing our leaves. You’re the best. Can I get you anything?

This entire article is delightful.

I literally giggled out loud at this sentence:
"The Huffy Sweet Thunder was almost (but not quite) big enough for me, which meant I couldn’t outrun the boys in my neighborhood on it, which led to a lot of boys getting walloped in their dumb faces."

I feel like this about my mobility scooter which is enabling me to go on long bird walks again. I wish I’d gotten it sooner #pwME

I haven’t finished reading it yet, because my eyes are blurry with tears. I’m not sure if I’ll ever be in the forest on a fully packed bike again, but my e-bike allowed me to traverse the cities and cruise the river again. There’s magic everywhere when on a bike, and I am so grateful.
