You can get your COVID and flu vaccinations at the same time, but what’s best - one arm or two?

You can save time and money by getting two vaccinations (COVID-19 and flu) at the same time, and new research by the Doherty Institute finds that it doesn’t really matter which arm or arms the jab goes in.

I do the opposite. I start with Wordle, go to Quordle and Octordle, then Spelling Bee, Tiles, Connections, Letter Box and Strands

I really hate the reassurance adoptees have to give their adoptive parents. It’s a burden that shouldn’t be placed on the ones who had no say in the process. 🥚

Imagine if a woman president went off about every picture of herself she didn’t like. “Hysterical.” “Emotional.” “PMSing.” “Petty bitch.”

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.

The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.

At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.
