Anyone else just have the urge to loudly whisper, “THIS IS GROUP THERAPY WITH ABOVE & BEYOND,” anytime a trance-y beat is being played in stores or elevators?

One of the most powerful mindshift techniques is changing “I have to” statements into “I get to.”

For example:
“I hate leg day.” → “I get to hate leg day.”

There are days when I just want to run away from management and be a frontend engineer again.

Blarfenghar. I noticed the speakers on my new Apple MacBook Pro 14-inch M1 Pro were cracking frequently at low volume.

Apparently lots of people are having the same problem.

I waited to buy gen 2 to avoid this shit.

How has “Gumby” not gotten a reboot already, NBC?

25 years ago, middle school me got off a bus to a driveway full of cars and I knew immediately cancer had finally taken my mother from me.

Anyway, vaccinate your kids against HPV, males too.

President Obama taught me to not get too excited by a speech. Biden doesn’t get a cookie until HR-1 and the John Lewis Voting Rights Act are passed.

I saw a Prop 65 warning on a food label. The explanation link affirmed my unexamined opinion the prop was as useless as a cookie warning.

I wondered if there were any repeal efforts. Turns out, it’s actually done a lot of good.

There is no subject he cannot make political.

I say, “Remember this fond memory?” He responds about then being a “sane” time.

I say, “All your grandkids want to see you.” He says, “Too many liberals.”

I say, “Thanks for xyz growing up.” He says, “Why don’t you like trump?”

I used to talk with my grandfather (~80) regularly, but after trump lost the popular election a second time, he has refused to say anything other than lamentations about the state of the world. He’s still big mad his grandkids voted for Biden. Any advice?

A new season of “Queer Eye” provided the happy new year tears that I needed. 💕

2021 wasn’t the year I wanted, but it was better than 2020, which was better than 2019. I hope 2022 continues this positive trend and we live as changed people with more gratitude for the basic things we have been deprived of during the pandemic. #HappyNewYear

Almost 2 years into the pandemic and I’m still having to unfollow smart people I once respected who suddenly come out as an antivaxxer. 🤯

The hard truth for Sverige is that we cannot vaccinate our way out of the pandemic.

We will have to wear medical masks and isolate more, something the government and many people here have not been willing to do.

3. Any notion of national herd immunity is wrong. The entire world will keep suffering until all countries have access to effective vaccines at the same time to inhibit new variants.

2. Any notion of herd immunity from "just getting it and getting over it like a bad flu" is wrong. Many people who got COVID-19 before being vaccinated are getting it again. Antibodies fade fast and we do not know what variants will develop in the future.

This means a few interesting things:

1. With 71% of all Swedish residents are fully vaccinated, the current vaccines are not effective at preventing infection of omicron. Yes, they reduce hospitalization, but that is not the primary measure of efficacy we use for other vaccines.
