“harry potter is my comfort series” it was mine, too, until JKR became an evil transphobic monster, so I got a new comfort series because trans lives are more important than books about wizards. It’s not hard.

Why do people with ME claim to know more about the medical aspects of their disease than their doctors? Because the mechanisms that usually ensure doctors' knowledge fail in the case of ME, and sick people have created mechanisms of knowledge production and dissemination to pick up the slack.

It's Banned Books Week. My fellow librarians, listen carefully: your book displays should be almost exclusively writers who are alive. Yes, I know classic literature is also being banned, but most of those authors are dead. They aren't suffering financially from bans and challenges.

WELL NOW, would you look at that? A massive, 4-YEAR-LONG study of NEARLY 30 MILLION people in France found that individuals who received a COVID-19 mRNA vaccine had a 74% LOWER risk of death from severe COVID-19 compared to unvaccinated individuals and ZERO increased risk of all-cause mortality.

Poster for the 1981 film adaptation of the 1978 play "First Monday in October"—named for the first day of the US Supreme Court's fall term. This poster includes photos of the movie's stars, Walter Matthau and Jill Clayburgh, with a caricature of the Supreme Court justices and Clayburgh's character dangling from two ends of Lady Justice's scale. Tagline: "In the Supreme Court, there are only eight of them against all of her."

The marbled polecat (Vormela peregusna) looks like a ferret dressing up as a cheetah for Halloween. They're native to a semi-desert grassland strip from Eastern Europe to Central Asia. Like a skunk, they can spray a foul-smelling fluid from anal glands. Let's talk about them. (📷: Petra Prager)
A marbled polecat photo from Petra Prager.  It looks almost exactly like a ferret, but the arched back is sort of orange with brown dots on it similar to a cheetah, and the head has a white stripe that reminds me of a skunk, with a long floofy tail and dark limbs.  This one looks alert and at rest.

I had to melt down a bunch of broken sterling Jesuses this weekend so I might be on God's shitlist on principle. If anyone with better spiritual credit can send a request that Hunter's lungs are clear of pneumonia, that'd be keen.

Today's first local urgent need is Julie, who does a ton of community work in her neighborhood for families and kids. She's undergoing major dental surgery, and insurance won't pay the last $1,500. They won't do that work until it's paid, which means she can't really even eat right now.

Headlines like “Has Woke Gone Too Far” or “Has ‘Me Too’ Gone Too Far” are a tell that those movements are just starting to take off. They are terrified of Black ethos breaking containment and so everything they can to shut down momentum.
