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).

I would expect he does, Teppy—I feel like most politicians do and he especially it would be a bad look to be like, chartering flights?

Our wings are not tired

I got my Pfizer booster today. 6 months +1day after my second dose.

Go invincibility! With all the travel you do I am grateful you have that booster in your immunity bank.

Need to make serious plans to head south. 34F outside this morning, and a whopping 47 inside. Not upstairs where I had the heater running, but I don't have them going downstairs while I am sleeping. All running now! Yes, I am well bundled and comfy enough, but I don't want to have my water freeze.

Silly cats still insisted on going outside this morning! I'll check often to see if they are ready to come back inside.

From my news feed this morning - YouTube is blocking all anti-vaccine content and banning prominent anti-vaccine activists

Now if only FB would do the right thing.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

To brighten your day, there's this - young man trying recipes from the past. Many are horrible, a couple are good. It's his commentary and reactions that make them worth watching.

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

I see that, and raise you: [link]

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

One of the professors at my college had written a book of ancient Roman recipes. A lot of them seemed to include garum (spelling?) which seems to be like the fish sauce used in some ... Vietnamese? ... recipes.

Ha! Love the date cream guy.

The food history thing looks kinda cool. I'm saving that.
