Yes, so much real life, relationships and nature, can be obscured or dropped by modern drugs, or electronic gizmos! I find that I often have to physically say, “put down your phone, Phil” because I am not focusing on what is happening around me!

All right I'm not totally mad at my French homework covering passé composé, imparfait, and plus-que-parfait (the past tenses in French) anymore, if it means my brain will keep on chugging along.
When someone knows two or more languages, all those languages remain active in the brain. The brain must select the right language while keeping others from interfering. This constant mental exercise acts a bit like daily "brain training". #RSNA25

I wish that everybody spoke two or three languages fluently. It makes your life richer as some things are better understood, felt or experienced in one of the spoken language. My brain switches from one to the other constantly and sometimes I do not even realize which language I am speaking.

#Measles is going to make its way to every corner of the continent with a low #vaccination 💉 rate.
😥
Of course, wearing a snug N95 mask 😷 would be protective…
I’m pretty sure the anti-vaxers are also anti-mask.

For the first time in more than two decades, the United States is poised to lose its measles elimination status, a designation indicating that outbreaks are rare and rapidly contained

Parents that don't want to vaccinate children should be forced to watch films of children in iron lungs and disabled by polio. Then visit a cemetery where many children are buried before their 1st birthday. People don't know what it was like and need to be educated.

Or better yet promote theories such as vaccines cause autism to discourage people from taking it.

If an enemy of the United States wanted to cause mass suffering and death in America, they could spend years developing weaponized viruses to secretly infect millions...

Or they could convince millions of Americans that vaccines, proven to be safe and effective for literally CENTURIES are fake...

Yeah I just got the flu a couple months ago and as soon as it was gone I lined up for that shot. I’m good at getting everyone vaccinated but I forget mine and never again. The body aches felt like death.
