I don’t understand how COVID is spiking again after we’ve tried everything from pretending it’s over to pretending it never happened

Watching the scramble to figure out if LK-99 is an Actual Thing™ is fun, but I'm hearing comments like "If it's real it'll mean high-speed trains everywhere!"
My dude, we could ALREADY have high-speed trains everywhere. The resistance in the wires isn't the thing that's blocking it from happening.
Big week for federal news, which means that as a person raised in Washington I have a continual headache from beaming powerful hate rays out of my forehead at people who refer to DC as Washington.
@midendian Ah good, trucks.
@midendian It’s very first-mover disadvantage stuff, right? But the saving grace is that if you can fly x/ton out of OAK or x minus a bit/ton out of SMF, it catches up reasonably quickly. (Redrafted because of confusing typo.)
@midendian I think the realistic best case is: force OAK to have high standards, thereby force SFO/SCJ/SMF standards to lower, then let the rising bar of public expectations catch them.
OAK, my local airport, wants to expand. I encourage other East Bay people to submit comments: https://www.oaklandairport.com/terminaldevelopment/

So one of my volunteer projects is preservation of a specific type of Malay textile, and the team is launching a suite of socmed accounts. I want to help set up and run a fedi account for them... Anyone has a good instance to rec on that theme? Or else I'll simply pick one. Probably either history or art or handicraft-related. (Too bad we don't quite have a generalist SEA one yet. XD) #fedihelp
@aredridel Jooiiin usssss!

Picked up some qvevri wine from the Eastern European supply store so the next bolognese is going to taste like it was fermented underground.

I think if your consumer product advertises an easily resealable package, you should have to post one video a month of each of the members of your company’s board of directors opening and resealing it.
