That spoon is bigger than it looks. And it isn't a fork (in the road)

Good technique there, though, with the hand under his chin.

That way *nobody* will notice you are napping when your mouth falls open and and you bark like a dog.

(they will all notice when you don't seem responsive)

I have heard that wind speed matters, for instance, with dengue. Low wind speed allows high pathogen reproduction, but doesn't allow propagation of infective foci. Modest wind spreads local infections widely. Very high wind limits infections.

Malaria will be different, of course.

You can also go to a polling place and vote again (if you suspect your vote wasn't received). That ballot is held and used if your original vote doesn't get counted. The provisional ballot has the same kind of envelope so they can associated the unopened ballot with you.

Yeah.... in California, the ballots are identified on the envelope, but not on the ballot. Ballots are registered when received. After verifying the id is valid, they open the envelope and separate the ballot and envelope. At that point, they count the ballot and can't trace back to how I voted. 🧵

You do have to admit that there were no successful communist governments in the middle ages. Not even during the renaisance.

Also, wouldn't more warming *increase* malaria due to habitat increase for mosquitoes?

It was 27 here in Miami today.

I think he just got tired of winning. He told us that he'd be winning so much that he'd get tired of winning.

And sure enough he's not winning!

Even better after going to bed early on election night because things look like they're going the right direction
