Yeah, a friend of mine who got vaccinated as soon as he could, and has been careful about masks and distance in his daily life, went to a bunch of concerts where he thought he would be safe with other vaxxed and masked people and felt fine for a while after and then tested positive and stayed home just quarantining from his wife so she wouldn't catch the mild case he was expecting and just went into the hospital today. My strong tendency to never leave the house is seriously reinforced.
That's the thrill of living in the Hellmouth! There's a veritable cornucopia of fiends and devils and ghouls to engage ... Pardon me for finding the glass half-full.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Yes, this.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I am tired. In other news, water is wet and fire is hot.

A thousand times this.
In other news, I'm inheriting more workflows from someone going on leave. I'm now the single owner for all global workflows for a product, ha ha! I'm not going to hold anyone hostage by threatening to rage quit, but I'm not NOT going to do that.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated
My head is all stuffy today after flying home from Vermont yesterday, but I'm 98% sure it's caused by returning to Cincinnati ragweed pollen and a cat that insists on being a walking allergen. I'm only 2% paranoid that it's a cold. I am 0% paranoid it's Covid.
Also, does Bernie Sanders fly commercial airlines? Because our flight yesterday was from Burlington into DC, and I would swear he was on our flight (although it's hard to tell when half a person's face is covered by a mask).
