Telling the pharmacy you had a relative present shingles early is one way around this and more people should know it's an option. I had zero issues with coverage.

Actually I'm reminded, a friend told me about a SF TV show that was entirely futuristic court cases, there was a Flowers for Algernon episode. So there's certainly precedent.

While haven't read that, a fantasy lawsuit sounds like a really interesting read! found all the lawyering in Max's Craft Sequence entertaining after all. (Redo because I couldn't abide the typo)

I appreciate there's a few antifascist metal labels so I can worry a little less. It's exhausting to research bands all the time.

I started using gaffer's tape to label them because it's just a hopeless mess otherwise.

I cannot emphasize enough that when you share something, you need to verify it is true before celebrating.

This is how we get complacent and believe that the battle is done and over and the enemy is defeated.

We had such a great night on Tuesday, but this isn't over. Not even close.

Viral posts about how Moms For Liberty had zero wins on election night...aren't true. They're misinformation, even dis-info.

M4L did have a number of school board candidates win. You can verify that information pretty easily.

They had *A LOT* of losses and their power isn't what it once was.

It's not a crazy deep dive or anything, but I can see how if you're not used to picking what to focus on for a search it's helpful to see the process

Sure. I remember because it answered something I'd been wondering myself, haha. www.youtube.com/watch?v=KchX...

I remember one of Hank Greens's videos got a ton of comments because he tried to find an answer to a random question and so many young people hadn't known how to dig through multiple rounds of search results like he demonstrated

Taking a quick look at mortality stats of 100 years ago, especially of young kids, makes it real clear real quick just how many people used to die on the regular.

Somebody I follow highly recommends changing a post to follower replies only as soon as it seems to be breaking out
