Mentre ci infettiamo di ogni malattia in un'aria schifosa? Ma lo capite che c'è un'emergenza più importante o no? Magari usate pure la AI per i vostri stupidi meme sprecando quantitativi immani di energia e acqua.

We had to jump on the owl impression trend and show our impression of an owl in print.

This electrotype (copy) of an owl is from the Lewis Winter Collection. This was printed with black rubber base ink using our Washington hand press.

Dr William Foege, who led one of humanity's greatest triumphs—the global eradication of smallpox—has died. He was 89. He led the CDC in the 1970s. Smallpox is the only lethal infection to be eradicated. Foege created 'ring vaccination'— inoculating an infected person's family/friends/neighbors 1st👇

Sometimes my copy editor has left-aligned some of my text and I can't figure out why.

I've asked her to justify it.

Ho letto un giallo (vecchio di anni) in cui l'assassino usava proprio la debolezza del sistema di apertura per iniettare il batterio nelle confezioni. Roba da pazzi. La realtà che supera la fantasia 😱
Another contaminated product: Cans of Genova brand tuna have been recalled because of a possible "fatal botulism risk." The FDA says the cans were mistakenly shipped to stores in 9 states. The suspect cans were part of a larger recall from last February when “easy open” pull tab lids were defective👇

In the late 1920s, American realism was beginning to brush up against modernism’s flattened forms. In Cape Ann Granite (1928), Hopper makes granite the main actor—carving hill and house into interlocking planes, as his realism reached toward abstraction.

Orione... quante notti di insonnia quest'estate, a cercarla nel cielo, a fare foto orrende col mio cell da poco... ma riguardo le mie foto e piango perché dubito avrò occasione di rivederti. Quanto sei bella, Orione... ❤️

Questa è follia.Significa volere deliberatamente fare esplodere nuovamente l'epidemia di Aids, oltre a far morore quei 10mila HIV positivi.Io capisco la politica eugenetica, eliminare certe etnie, certi ceti (dal loro punto di vista, ovviamente) ma questa è una minaccia totale per gli USA e il mondo

Matt Damon dice spesso cose "impopolari" (come quando disse che per un attore fare CO era deleterio... può non piacere ma è assolutamente vero) e adesso ha ragione su Net*lix. Continuo a pensare al capolavoro di animazione Wall.E e agli umani completamente decerebrati e rammolliti nell'astronave.

A massive study of 40,537 people in @ScienceDirect just redefined C0VID as "a condition of long-lasting immune compromise."

20 months post-infection, T-cells & NK cells (our primary viral & cancer defense) had NOT recovered. So much for "It's mild."

Sure ... just head over to CVS and pick up a bottle of blood thinners just because you think that'll "fix" your headache, or whatever. Dosage? Doesn't matter. Just pick the 1st one you see. The guy in charge of the FDA is a certified idiot👇
Makary: "Why are medications prescription only? If you think about it, if a medication is safe, doesn't require laboratory test monitoring & can't be used in some nefarious way, why do we require a prescription? Most of the world does not do that. There's something magical about price transparency."
