Hopefully, this will break thru a layer of anti-vaccine ideology…. protect the babies. Wonder if the anti-choice/pro-life folks are anti-vaxx? Gotta be some overlap there!

Covid: Epidemiologist Larry Brilliant on delta variant, vaccinations…pandemic way not over!

9 Aug

People have to guard against opting to ignore reality because they don’t like it. Denying an unpleasant reality hinders your ability to cope. And the reality will bite your ass anyway!

The reality is that a lot of people in the US are unvaccinated by choice frequently and many more people in the undeveloped world are unvaccinated thru lack of access. As long as this remains the case, covid will evolve. That evolution will result in a likely day when covid is able to evade our vaccines. Then we’re all back in square 1 danger… all to cycle thru all this all over again.

The nitty gritty of Food, Life, Pissing etc.

26 Jan

What is food?

Dead life

What is life?

Leaky bags of chemicals. In fact, that is what all human and non-humans are…leaky bags of chemicals.

What is Food again?

Dead bags of chemicals we find around us

What is eating?

Stuffing through the opening in the bag (that is us) the dead bags of chemicals we find around us

What does eating do?

The dead bags of chemicals keep our chemicals replenished and active.

What is exhaling, sweating, shitting, pissing, tears, spit, vomiting, ear-wax, snots?

Other chemicals that we use or can’t use or don’t like getting leaked out that end up grabbed and used by other bags of chemicals around us in their bags.

Thus is life in a nutshell.

You know, I just love this pic. I was walking down the street and I saw it and I thought, “how incongruous!!…yet poetic” I took the pic (w/ my new phone..FUN!) and it just looked soooooo great! Makes me think of an album cover or something. Kinda iconic. I sent it to a new friend. Showed it to my bro after seeing Dr. Strange. I just love it!!

Crimson hexa-spoke angles

Here’s another. Just eyeballing’ it, the angles look very similar. Its probably the golden ratio. Nature is amazing. Regularity without mind!

Nature’s Angles

Truly is amazing the regularity of the angles of the needles. It’d be interesting to measure if the angles between the two cacti are similar.
