Good news about a bad thing: Two big studies just appeared in Nature and JAMA suggesting that in most cases the risks from even serious Long COVID fades after 1.5-2 yrs. Until this, there'd been a lot of (understandable!) fears that it could last for a lifetime. But for most people, it seems not.

Deeply impressed by the business acumen required to buy the place where experts wrote stuff for free and make it the place where WokeDestroyer1488 will never be banned.

It would be great if absolutely everybody can help this story go viral, and get higher-level media attention, to contribute to the social and legal utter annihilation of every cop, judge, and politician involved.

NEW: On Friday, a protest was held outside Dodger Stadium. Several news outlets reported the story, but failed to look at the damning details of the right-wing personalities and folks connected to J6 that were involved in this event. So I did it.

Dissent has grown increasingly censored on Facebook in Vietnam. And now two former employees allege that "Meta has adopted an internal list of Vietnamese Communist Party officials who should not be criticized on Facebook" and that the list is kept private, even within Meta.
