'Twas ever thus, unfortunately, only more so now than ever, thanks to social media. When I cite Brandolini's Law now, I say it's wrong not in concept but in magnitude. It's now takes *at least* 2 or 3 orders of magnitude more energy to refute bullshit than it does to produce it.

It looks as if our immunity from the vaccine will weaken a little, making it spread easier without symptoms. But it will be spreading even more than delta, hurting the unvaxxed even worse. The vaccinated may be able to spread it better with mild or no symptoms. Like Mu, omicron has the potential to mutate into something even worse. Getting an omicron booster ready might provide us with some added protection from the next mutation it takes on.

Advertising "art as investment" or "wine as investment" instead of more traditional avenues makes me cringe. This isn't going to end well for so many of the people who buy into this snake oil pitch.

As a musician and lifelong @thebeatles fan, the Get Back doc is a huge gift I never expected to see. It’s like what I’d expect heaven to be like…you get to hang out with The Beatles

Quite the news collection represented there.

Same here. I pored over every page, enjoying the nostalgia resulting from the style of writing, the style of advertising art, especially the drawings for women's clothing. It's all classic stuff for one from my generation. A pleasant relief from the vulgarly jaded world of today.
One Target store. One huge spike in shoplifting reports. What does it mean for San Francisco?

Rupert Murdoch’s Fox News has been labelled as the "Bullshit Factory" by Jim Acosta.
For good reason too. They were heavily promoting Trump's FALSE conspiracy theories about the 2020 election.
They have misled their viewers about Covid-19 & the vaccine.

Without Rupert Murdoch's FOX - there's no Dubya, no forever wars killing >5,000 of my Brothers and Sisters.
