Dr. Amy, Psy.D.I was so excited about Sherlock Holmes I didn’t realize MC Escher’s works also entered the public domain today!!
Edit - apparently Google showed me an article that isn’t specific to the US so this isn’t true here 😭 Sorry for the wrong info!
George Takei 
🏳️🌈🖖🏽Out for an afternoon stroll on the Thames footpath in London. I’m eagerly awaiting my West End stage debut at the Charing Cross Theatre less than two weeks from now!
If you’re in London Jan-Apr, be sure to come see me in Allegiance! https://Allegiancemusical.com

Many act as if COVID is gone, or at least well on its way out. But 8 of 10 provinces had *more* COVID deaths in 2022 and in either of the previous 2 years. And the other 2 are Québec, which had a horrific level of death in 2020, and Alberta, which fell just short of matching last year's total this year.
@[email protected] Thanks for the paper. I’ve written on Babbage a fair bit. Lots of “fashionable” people came to his showy soirées. I had forgotten that Dickens was among them. Their politics were so opposed to each other, it might have been amusing to see them argue.
@[email protected] But apparently Little Dorrit (which I haven't read) satirizes a character modelled on Babbage.
@MikeTRose Aren't they "blemished" in virtue of being "Atlas Shrugged"?
Tom Levenson@JamesGleick Yes. I am literally looking at the chapter I'm working on in my upcoming book on germ theory when vaccination first gets figured out. I'm about to tell the TB microbe story, and segue into the cholera pandemic--and the public health idea that flowed from identifying V. cholerae.
It was all understood then as perhaps the greatest single advance in human flourishing ever. (It was and is).
And these vicious, power-hungry idiots are throwing it away.
