Former CDC director predicts bird flu pandemic

📌 He also noted that bird flu has a “significant mortality” when it enters humans compared to COVID-19.

Redfield predicts the mortality is “probably somewhere between 25 and 50 percent mortality.”

“I really do think it’s very likely that we will, at some time it’s not a question of if it’s more of a question of when we will have a bird flu pandemic,” Redfield said.

Interesting animal investigation of the hypothesis.

@EricCarroll @longcovid Related to that afucosylatic Megakaryocyte stuff from earlier, no doubt. The replicated that in mice as well, as I recall.

Our bodily autonomy should not depend on what state we live in.

@indivisibleteam I feel like the whole "put to death" thing is actually even more important than what the people are being put to death for, although that is also very important

“A house divided against itself cannot stand. I believe this government cannot endure, permanently, half slave and half free.”

    Periodic reminder and ...

    Due to the way the works for pretty much all apps, like , your feeds have one simple algorithm: first-in, first-out (FIFO).

    The only fediverse-connected app not using FIFO right now, that I know of, is Threads.

    That means that the usual rules don't apply. If you want a robust feed, just follow pretty much anyone, randomly, if someone you already followed boosted them into your feed.

    Follow generously.

    When you boost, it keeps the toot alive. Most toots die on the vine, because it's not all one big pool of users, where discovery is as simple as doomscrolling until you agree. Plus, there's no algorithm, other than FIFO.

    So also boost generously.

    This is far more real-time than Twitter or Facebook. You're pretty much seeing posts that were just posted, or have genuinely viral staying power, because people keep boosting them.

    Anyone know any TTRPGs for true crime fans?
    So far I've looked into Trail of Cthulhu (Gumshoe), Cold City, Brindlewood Bay, Esoterrorists and Unknown Armies - but they're all more geared towards horror and occult. I just want plain old normal crime in current times...

    please know that I didn't stop following you - I fell off the wagon and deleted all my social media in a drunken rage

    now I'm starting over again and staying sober

    I would love to have your follow again - and I'll def return the favor if I can confirm your not a bot, or sock

    @jerry @coleens_ Well, let's find out.

    You’re in a desert walking along in the sand when all of the sudden you look down, and you see a tortoise, it’s crawling toward you. You reach down, you flip the tortoise over on its back. The tortoise lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs trying to turn itself over, but it can’t, not without your help. Select all of the pictures which contain tortoises lying on their backs.
