This is a really good point that I had not run into before: these "creators" have no further insight into their alleged creation than the average audience member and that is why it cannot be called art (besides all the other obvious reasons).

Sure, let’s just keep allowing ALL the viruses to run rampant infecting everyone all the time so we create even more new and improved SUPER viruses that will bring society back to the good old days of 30-year life expectancy. Great job Public Health! 👍
There's a new strain of mpox in the UK that's a combo of clade 1 & clade 2. It appears that specifics re: transmissibility & virulence are as yet unknown.
It's a pretty interesting recombination event, b/c it means someone was infected w/ both clades at the same time.

A new mpox variant has been identified in the UK. Should we be worried?
The new strain combines both currently recognised strains of the virus – clade I and clade II. Scientists are watching closely.

Researchers looked at 1.8M Americans. (Only ~13% got the 2024–25 COVID shot)
🔸Protection against infection was ~45% at 4 weeks, ~36% at 10 weeks, and ~17% at 20 weeks
🔸Protection against ER visits was 45% → 43% → 39%
🔸Strongest was against hospitalisation/death: 57% → 50% → 34%

Our border officers are essential to our security— keeping drugs, guns, and criminals out of our communities.
So, we’re investing in the Canada Border Services Agency to hire 1,000 new officers who will keep our borders secure and our streets safe.

There is an actual life-changing conflict between WFH being cheaper and more efficient, an entire layer of middle managers who need to have meetings to feel alive, and the commercial real estate cabal that runs all cities. It’s going to get so fucking weird.
remote work is like birth control or UBI atp where there’s overwhelming research consensus they improve quality of life for people they apply to, yet access is impeded or blocked by the ruling class because the thought of marginalized ppl having rich full lives makes steam come out their ears
2. Rolling Stone is owned by a large media conglomerate, which is ending remote work across its brands.
My home is Portland, Oregon, ~1,000 miles from the nearest office, so this marks the end of the line for me at RS.
