too much time on the bus

I remember there was a writer for SPIN magazine in the early 90s, Celia Farber, who penned many articles questioning the HIV-AIDS link. Always thought it was a weird thing to read in a music mag.

Celia Farber is more awful than you think (a galaxy brain thirty years ago can only get exponentially worse)

She was Bob Jr’s girlfriend when I was interning at Spin.

Looks like the spectacularly well-named FLiRT variants are the next ones for which we'll need a fall booster.

Roffle. But yeah, things are definitely calmer. My hospital has been in low single digits for a while. Thankfully masking is still required in the main building; I work at an outlier with a window I prop open right behind me so in combination with relatively lower usage levels compared to pre-pandemic that enables me to split things nicely, since I only use the main building to grab lunch most days.
