I love it when the little kids I’m teaching online have complete and total misconceptions of what’s going on. So far, I’ve encountered the following:

1. I had been teaching a little girl for several months, when one day she said to me: “My mother says you’re a real person, not an app. If you’re a real person, show me your husband.”

2. I was about to end a class, but the little girl I was teaching didn’t want the class to end. She turned to her mom and asked if she could please watch one more episode. Turns out she was under the impression that I was a very interactive TV program.

3. I couldn’t find my marker in class today. The boy I was teaching was like, “What’s your apartment number? I’ll come up and help you find it!” The boy lives in China and I live in the United States. I guess most people he knows live in the same building as him, so he assumed I did too.

4. I had been teaching a kid for quite some time when I mentioned my age in class. She was like, “Wait, you’re an adult????” She’d thought I was twelve.

Vaccines are just giving your immune cells a vision from beyond to warn of the coming dangers.

New patent-free COVID vaccine developed as “gift to the world”

A new COVID-19 vaccine, developed by researchers from the Texas Children’s Hospital and Baylor College of Medicine, is being offered patent-free to vaccine manufacturers across the world. Human trials have shown the vaccine to be safe and effective, with India already authorizing its use as production ramps up to over 100 million doses per month. The vaccine has been named Corbevax and it is based on a traditional protein-based technology that has been safely used for decades. Like other COVID-19 vaccines, Corbevax focuses on the coronavirus spike protein, but instead of using mRNA to direct our cells to produce those spike proteins internally it delivers lab-grown spike proteins to the body. The researchers took the gene that codes for the spike protein and engineered yeast to produce it. These proteins are collected, purified, and combined with an adjuvant to enhance immune responses. This exact method has been used to produce the hepatitis B vaccine for years. “Protein-based vaccines have been widely used to prevent many other diseases, have proven safety records, and use economies of scale to achieve low-cost scalability across the world,” says Maria Elena Bottazzi, one of the lead researchers on the project.

I never thought the words “Way to go, Texas” would be words I said in 2022 but, here we are.

This vaccine uses older technology, so it’s not great at preventing transmission. However, it’s still VERY effective at keeping people from getting dangerously sick, the primary concern at this point in the pandemic.

The incredible thing is that their research was not funded/supported by government vaccine grants or a medical corporation’s lab. The vaccine was instead developed through the “investments” (with no returns) of almost exclusively Texas-based private companies and people, including (according to various reports) the Austin-based company Tito’s Vodka and Texas grocery chain HEB.

A bunch of TEXANS really just said “yeah I feel like life-saving, pandemic-ending vaccines should not be patented” and developed a patent-free vaccine.

my friends have a cat who self identifies as a "boy" and uses he/him pronouns

sadhoc

we know this because he is owned by two lesbians who don't have very many he/him friends, so when they say "he" or "him" or "boy" they're usually referring to their cat, so their cat has started responding whenever somebody says "boy" or "he" by running up and looking at them expectantly. so he's a cat that has pronouns

This is the boy. By the way
