Oregon, Washington, California form health care alliance to protect vaccine access

The states Democratic governors offered few specifics Wednesday as to how they hope the Western Health Alliance could influence which vaccines will be available in their states.

The greatest thing capitalism has ever done was convince you that your fatigue, depression, and other responses to the capitalist system are actually your personal failures.

OH MY GOD CAT. We're trying to leave on a trip and our cat roll call turned up one missing. We called and called, shaking snack bags like idiots for 45 MINUTES and checked all the closets, hiding spots, closed rooms and outside. I almost cried thinking he really got out and we would have to postpone leaving.

Cue this sleepy cat finally peeking out from behind a cupboard so full of muffin tins I can't believe he fit inside.

Saw the real (relocated) Titan II SLV & launch room, among many other cool things at the Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum. Even the floor tiles are original. Countdown & launch audio and video really made it. Very cool to see.

Ten days since I wrote this post and now I'm looking out the window at a logging truck vs. motorcycle crash the next intersection over (your assumptions about the result would be correct). Yikes, be careful out there folks.

Anyone know of a program / model etc. for schools providing laptops running #linux vs Chromebooks? We are exploring beginning some educational programs and in the long run a k-12 school, and keeping things open source would be in line with our philosophy. After personally degoogling, I'm not loving the thought of Chromebooks even if they're very entrenched in the education space.
