@hannahr.bsky.social Hey there. I know you have a lot of vaccine knowledge so I wondered if you knew the answer: I booked my vaccine for DGH drivethrough this week when I became eligible. Looking at the appt. it shows it's the moderna monovalent. Will this protect against the prevalent strains?

Almost decided not to bother seeing this one in the theatre based on the response it was getting. Went last night and, yes, all this! Wish I could be more baffled by the reaction to this very funny movie with three women leads.

It is a lot easier to stand on the outside and make snarky comments about how everything is bad than it is to roll up your sleeves and do the actual work required to fix problems. Especially if you pretend those problems are very easy to solve and the issue is everyone but you is stupid.

one thing i love about gene who cuts my hair is i always give him bizarre requests like "hair that looks normal in alabama" or "jackie kennedy but really long" or "laurel canyon roller disco mom" and he nods thoughtfully and deep conditions it and cuts off the split ends exactly the same every time

1. Ricotta isn't technically a cheese, and it's name means re-cooked, as in re-cooked whey. 2. Cheddar is both a noun and a verb, as cheddaring is a process curds go through 3. P. roqueforti is a darker blue mold, bold and piquant. P. glaucum is a lighter, green blue, sweet and mild.

I am doing a bit of a purge today. If anyone were to look at this pile, they'd determine that I had issues. I seem to hoard yarn, books, hair ties, lip balm, and purses. And...I've been completely derailed in this venture because I found some cool yarn and accidentally started knitting. 🧶

A real find at a used bookstore this afternoon. The binding’s a bit dodgy and the covers are falling off, but it’s a genuine 18th-century cookbook. No sushi in it, but lots of puddings, pies, and pickles.
