I don't know about actively posting, but Karin something-or-other monitors social media posts about scientology. Don't forget to say hi, in case she's found out about Lemmy.

Hi, Karin!

Some buildings were created quickly with the intention of being temporary. I believe they may have used new techniques for the time as well. Because they were built so quickly, and were inspired by ancient architecture, some people have decided that they were rediscovered and/or moved or something like that.

You're remembering correctly. That's how the first character dies in Dreamcatcher. Stephen King was recovering from a car accident and was on oxy when he wrote the book if that helps explain anything.

They're terrified of the mRNA vaccine. Because they're incurious about science, they think it's brand new, like invented just for this virus. Try telling them that the delivery mechanism has been around for awhile and scientists have been working on this vaccine since SARS and all they do is cover their ears and hum louder.

Wouldn't that make him a monotreme?

Instead of protesting outside, we should go inside and laugh at people like this. Make them worry that the crowd is just there to humiliate them.

In the US, if you're in jail, you have to make phone calls through whatever provider the jail uses. These are private companies and charge a lot of money to the family just to talk to their loved one. A quid pro quo is a reward or advantage in return for something. In this case, the jails receive extra money for letting certain phone companies be the only ones prisoners can use. By preventing in person visits, they are lining their pockets with even more money. It's disgusting.

Go to your doctor or pharmacist and tell them that you aren't sure. They'll probably just recommend getting a booster. I got all my childhood vaccines (except chickenpox because it wasn't required when I was a kid) and my doctor still recommended a booster just to be sure.

As an aside, you should be sure to get your tetanus booster every ten years as well.

If it's dead, yes. They eat mostly fish, but also carrion.

I was coming here to post the same thing. He's been a guest on the Knowledge Fight podcast a few times and is an absolute delight to listen to.
