Those mRNA vaccine programs that RFK Jr. is killing because he claims they don't work?
The people who invented them got the f***ing Nobel Prize.
And they've saved literally millions of lives already.

Happy Birth Day, Merja! A wee bit belated, of course. I will, though, find an appropriately peaty, smoky dram and hoist one in your honor tonight.

We've had lots of those here, lately, Merja. This monsoon season has been stunningly wet and noisy! And we definitely needed it. The garden is an explosion of green.

I’ll tuck into it after I finish rereading FOUNDATION.

Thank you, Merja, for pointing this out to me. I have suggested it to Laurie for her next read but I think I might jump in ahead of her.

This is what I get for not checking Mastodon often enough. This is wonderful! I have shared the review with my FB contacts, recommending the book which I have enjoyed immensely.

Thank you for sharing this!

I suspect Laurie will like them. I’ll pass the recommendations to her, as well.
