I asked this of an AI

Me: Covid and flu are climbing again—what should I do to stay healthy this winter?

LLM: Mask up in crowded spots, ventilate indoors, get updated shots, wash hands, and stay home if sick. Smart beats lucky.

Everything about SARS-CoV-2 weakens us as a species. Population-level immune dysregulation leading to both reactivation of latent pathogens and creating niches for new ones; the politicisation of our response regressing public health and massively amplifying anti-vax ideology.

Omfg why can infection control not get their 🤬 clown car in order and do their 🤬 jobs and tell people that for an aerosol hazard you need aerosol PPE?

Seriously, wtf is wrong with medicine that it tolerates this constant amateur-hour incompetence? We know this is killing people!

"Do no harm"?

🤬🤡

Awesome chain! 😍

'Little to No Measurable Progress' on Climate as World on Track for 2.6°C: Report | Common Dreams "Without rapid, deep emissions cuts—over 50% by 2030—overshooting 1.5°C becomes ever more likely, with severe consequences for people and ecosystems," one expert said.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%

Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%

Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.

As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

The obvious is proven over and over again.

Stop messing with a virus that damages the immune system.

I’m just wondering what the broken part is, there may be a workaround? 🤞

New flu virus mutation could see ‘worst season in a decade' Leading flu experts say they will not be surprised if this year's is the worst flu season for a decade.

H5N1 infections in wildfowl and poultry are increasing quickly in North America and Europe as a result of the southward migration of wild birds. With a severe flu season ahead of us, driven by H3N2, the risk of reassortment has significantly increased.

'if I tell the truth about everything I will offend people' 'therefore if I offend people I must be telling the truth'

Remember: There is nothing natural or inevitable about extreme inequality; it’s the result of an economic system that values wealth and power over human dignity and justice.

It doesn't have to be this way.

This is your weather on fossil fuel pollution. And it's costing you much more than you realize.

@climatechris.bsky.social breaks it down:

Missing 1.5C climate target is a moral failure, UN chief tells Cop30 summit UN secretary general António Guterres urges opening session in Brazil to bring about a ‘fundamental paradigm shift’

Yes, it's a moral failure to allow fossil fuel pollution and fail to switch to clean energy.

And a criminal failure b/c it is enabled by disinformation, fraud, and negligence.

And a financial failure b/c WE are paying TRILLIONS in damage so fossil fuel companies can make billions in profits. 💸💸💸

I hope everything aligns and you get to talk 🤞❤️

COVID-19 Vaccination Linked to Reduced Infections in Children with Eczema - ACAAI Patient Children with eczema may experience fewer allergic complications if they receive the COVID-19 vaccine, according to new research.

COVID-19 Vaccination Linked to Reduced Infections in Children with Eczema.

“Our study suggests that COVID-19 vaccination not only protects against coronavirus but may also have broader health benefits for children with atopic dermatitis"

Picture is of Tom Hanks, sitting on a subway train with his legs crossed, wearing black boots and black pants with a green sweater and a green toque sitting on orange chair. He’s holding onto a support pole, and wearing a black respirator. Behind him on the walls, the subway map.

When asked by Stephen Colbert why he was wearing a mask in public, Tom Hanks said..

“I’ve had Covid enough in my life I don’t need to do that again. I’m wearing this for health reasons”

More celebrities need to speak out like this.

Jasper, our CO2 monitor, is a valuable tool for classrooms and childare. The color of its belly shows the quality of indoor air renewal. Additional technical details are available on the screen at the back. Easy to use, it offers a truly outstanding cost–benefit ratio.

It is important to understand that the reckoning on Covid is not about feels, it’s not about fears, and it’s not about fuzzy ideas of social justice.

It is real people being forced out of their jobs because their workplaces refuse to acknowledge the scientifically proved risks of Covid.

To shameless quote my own piece, “The legacy media is apparently more interested in the climate musings of an erstwhile PC mogul than a sober assessment by the world’s leading climate scientists.”

The Torch 2 injection molds are being made. This is the last 3D printed working model. There are just a few fiddly bits on the PCB we are finalizing.

Smol lady hands so hard to tell scale- it's a little chunky at 188mm x 60mm x 60mm but still much smaller than the original Torch kit.

Yes! Me too! Best news for weeks. 🥳❤️

Winter Gray @PunkyBrewstuh It's happening. A virus keeps mutating, spreading globally, and causing devastation. People of all ages, babies, children, teens, 20s to 70s and beyond are dying. Pneumonia, sickness, school absences, heart attacks and strokes in your late 20s to 60s, dizziness, POTS, breathing difficulties, children to athletes falling dead on the field, celebrities in the prime of their lives dropping out of engagements, having heart attacks and brain aneurysms, and forgetting their own songs… are all being slowly normalized. We're like frogs in a pot -by the time the rest of the world catches up to the realization that we're dying, it'll be too late to stop it. 11:13 AM · Oct 28, 2025 · 8,587 Views

Nothing about this is normal. We are still in an ongoing pandemic, and the virus continues to circulate, mutate, infect, disable, and kill.

Hurricane Melissa Is a Monster Climate Change-Fueled Hurricane: Here’s What to Know This is the third Category 5 hurricane this year.

The sun gives us 10,000 times more energy than we use.
A few weeks of sun is more energy than all known reserves of oil, gas, and coal.
The sun's energy is free.
Solar power was invented in the 1800s.
But yeah, let's keep burning the stuff that makes monster hurricanes happen multiple times a year.

One of the hardest parts of chronic illness is the fact that society expects you to hide your suffering for their comfort

They expect you to smile and say you’re “fine” when you’re anything but

They expect you to assuage their fears so they don’t have to think about the temporary nature of health
