Hospitals around the U.S. are filling up with children who are especially hard hit this #influenza season. Oddly, it's only those who didn't get the #flu vaccine.

One beetle says to the other "Do you ever get the feeling we are being observed by another lifeform" Zoom out to reveal that they are in a glass case with two scientists studying them. One scientist says to the other "Do you ever get the feeling we are being observed by another lifeform" Zoom out into space. Abouard a spaceship, two aliens watch the scientists on a screen. One alien says to the other "Do you ever get the feeling we are being observed by another lifeform" The aliens turn to look out at the reader. Text below the cartoon reads: From 'Physics for Cats' by Tom Gauld. Preorder it at www.tomgauld.

My cartoon for this week’s @newscientist.com
Night time. Three figures walk up a set of stairs. They are in fact Penrose stairs, an impossible object which one can walk up endlessly. Low on the side of the stairs is a window. Another figure leans out and shouts up at the walkers: “Guys! I'm sure it's not easy being trapped in an endless paradox representing the limited nature of human perception, but some of us are trying to sleep down here!”

Actually I swore an oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States with my hand on @bpl.boston.gov’s 1782 edition Aitken Bible—also known as the Bible of the Revolution.
