Two victims of previous school shootings — Mia Tretta, who was shot in the stomach in 2019 at Saugus High School, and Zoe Weissman, who survived the 2018 shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School — are now at Brown. Gun violence is out of control in this country.

@sailorrooscout.bsky.social Chise, could you tell us whether this year's UK flu vaccine offers some protection against the risks of the strain currently doing the rounds here? They both appear to be H3N2, but the situation is unclear

I was in a meeting where the chart in the Budget showed they were missing the rule. Gordon asked if they could just make the line fatter, so it appeared to meet the axis.. and a certain SPAD (now with a popular podcast) responded "well yes, but we did that last time... there are limits" 🤣

I went to Sadler's Wells a few weeks back. There was an unusual number of men in expensive, aggressively checked suits. At the Union Chapel, it was all shades of grey and double dark denim.
