If you’re still wearing a mask, thank you. Please know you’re not alone. Many of us still mask, test and isolate when sick. Being the lone masker can be difficult, but your long term health is worth it. As a high risk, immunocompromised person… I see and appreciate you.

Hot take: I don't think social media made people dumber. We've been dumb this whole time. It's just that you used to have to have a job that people sent their dumb letters to, to notice. This made "Engaging with fools" an occupational hazard rather than the 24/7 experience it is presently.

Measles outbreaks could leave thousands vulnerable to infectious diseases for years. Those who survive measles experience immune amnesia and an increased susceptibility to infections. I spoke to the reporter for this article as one of the many experts interviewed. www.cidrap.umn.edu/measles/meas...

Wisdom from Tumblr, an occasional series
Tumblr post from user "prokopetz" that reads:

"A thing it's important to understand about a lot of spurious accusations of "using AI" is that a great many people genuinely do not understand the distinction between "AI" and "computer graphics" more generally – and furthermore, a lot of those same people think "tell the computer what you want and it does all the work" is how all computer graphics have always worked. This belief was widespread even before LLMs became publicly available. Hell, it's literally the reason Tron didn't take home the Oscar for best visual effects in 1982 – the Academy administrators disqualified it from being nominated because they thought computer graphics was just ordering a computer to do it for you!"

Per this article, all the players who got the mumps were vaccinated. It seems likely their immunity waned over time. Also, the story doesn't mention COVID, but we know COVID damages people's immune systems which can increase the chances of catching something else. www.kpbs.org/news/health/...
