@Ashkendo It's even better when you find someone special to share your sunbeam.

#Caturday Lola is preparing for the predicted #snowstorm by keeping her toes warm. She hopes everyone stays safe out there.

I am truly aghast at how public health agencies had abdicated their primary (in fact only!) responsibility in the #COVID19 pandemic. Over on the bird site, someone shared this--a screener tool in Ontario. Children who are infected with #COVID19 are told they can go to school (mask optional) if their symptoms aren’t worsening. 😟
We have no idea what repeated infections will do to the long-term health of children, but studies are not encouraging. This is unethical and dangerous, IMO.

As Carl lay there thinking about all of the life choices that led him to this point, his biggest regret was trusting that stupid cowboy and his space man friend.

I like this article for focusing on the ways the Mastodon experience is superior to Twitter.
"I find Mastodon restful. Like the first time you realized that TV is possible without commercials. Also, because journalists and scientists are leading the charge to Mastodon, my feed seems to reflect a culture of knowledge, even leaning on peer-reviewed citations."
Thanks @tchambers!

One day around 32,000 years ago, an arctic ground squirrel ate parts of a plant, silene stenophylla, including its seed. The squirrel was digesting it when its life ended.
Its body was recovered from permafrost and examined. Scientists germinated this plant seed. This silene stenophylla just bloomed.
It is 32,000 years old.
The strength, the vitality and stamina of living things — of life itself — is incredible.

This cello is strange and doesn't sound like the others, just goes awoo every so often 😁
@jurijuri Another thing I have found for vitamins and supplements--I try to buy Solgar brand. They come in a glass bottle and have a regular, old style twist cap. Sometimes a little more pricey, but well worth it for the ease of use and the lack of plastic. I re-use the bottles to store smaller things inside my safe.
@jurijuri @Izzod@izzodlaw.com Where I live now, a major snowfall is usually pretty much melted in 3-5 days. A cold snap is followed by 40-50 degree days. We had 8" of snow 10 days ago, and very few traces. Not like Chicago, where it never leaves.
@jurijuri @Izzod@izzodlaw.com I can't say that the Tylenol poisoner episode was the last straw (winter actually did it), but I soon moved to the desert. I lasted just about as long in the desert as I did in the Midwest and then I had to move along to yet another climate.
@jurijuri @Izzod@izzodlaw.com I was living in the area during that time, finishing up college so I remember the hysteria
@Izzod@izzodlaw.com @jurijuri The foil is easier. I hate those little teeny tiny paper tabs that are half plastic.
You're nicer than I--I use a steak knife
@jurijuri @Izzod@izzodlaw.com The OTC bottles are the worst--cut off the plastic, unscrew the top, then try to pull off the next layer or cut through a layer of foil, then pull out the cotton. Alternatively, you have something like a bottle of Pepto where you have to hold both sides in and turn...Thank you Tylenol poisoner, where ever you are
@jurijuri You can also ask the pharmacist to note in your file that you don't want child safety caps and they will put them on that way from the beginning.

I usually paint the 'wilder' aspects of the countryside. I painted this #watercolour during a #pandemic #lockdown for our daughter who lives in #Edinburgh.

One more. This time, we're back at home: València and the popular City of Arts and Sciences (if you find it familiar, it was a filming location in movies like Tomorrowland and the Westworld series).
Photo taken with a mobile phone, by the way. I used to bring the camera mostly when travelling, but there were only a few travels in the last three years 😓
@ct_bergstrom This song with #BuddyGuy, #JeffBeck and #keithrichards might be a good send-off.
