Cover of "The Death of the Automobile" by John Jerome, and illustrated by Robert Osborn. Text at the bottom of the page reads, "The Detroit car is an ecological, economic and engineering disaster - and the sixty-year-old love affair between it and the American people is ending." Illustration features a car in the style of a dying bug or animal.

Reddit push notification reads: “bayarea: San Francisco is getting ravaged by multiple viruses. Experts aren't sure why.”
Is it the fog? Is it high cost of living?
The experts can’t be sure. (That’s why they’re experts, okay?).
One thing’s for certain though- it’s not one immunity impacting virus, which post-infection increases susceptibility to other viruses.
F*CK CANCER AND MAKARY
He (and Vinny Prasad) rejected a last chance drug for metastatic melanoma - proven to extend life expectancy by 7-fold.

It's hard to articulate the level of anger & rage I have about watching this happen. I first saw weev doxx people I love *TWENTY* years ago. I spoke to founders of multiple social networks about the risk of these people over 15 years ago. I wrote about it all a dozen+ years ago. They let it happen.
A Facebook ‘memories’ screen titled ‘Your stories from 6 years ago’ showing two archived posts side by side. On the left, a protest scene features a woman holding a sign that reads ‘SOCIAL DISTANCING = COMMUNISM,’ paired with a satirical quote attributed to Karl Marx about "From each according to their viral load, to each according to their susceptability" labeled ‘citation needed,’ and a man below reacting with hands on his head. On the right, a woman stands outside a Baskin Robbins holding an American flag and a sign reading ‘GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH,’ overlaid with stickers including a laughing cartoon character and ‘LOL,’ with a caption below that reads ‘get both! twice the freedom!’ The interface includes buttons to share the story and a note that only the user can see it unless shared.
Really curious why ‘Reporter held at knife point during right wing death rally’ wasn't a bigger story in late April 2020.

2/2 Some administering the vaccine will say the bleb/ wheal doesn't happen every time. That may be. But it's more likely they missed— significantly diminishing efficacy in the process. This is about your health!
Make sure they get it right! Be nice but firm when advocating for yourself.

Guidance states there must be a bleb (technically called "wheal"). If there isn't they missed and demand a second attempt citing this paperwork by the CDC, archived 2022:
