“God has not told anyone how he created language to speak, or love to create humans, or mathematics to rest on the seventh day.”
From “Mathematics, under Which Is Love, Whose Bed Is Language” by Adania Shibli (tr. by @noraehp), issue 237, Summer 2021: https://www.theparisreview.org/fiction/7803/mathematics-under-which-is-love-whose-bed-is-language-adania-shibli
The CDC has not "backtracked on masks."
The unvaccinated did not heed the call to stay masked in far too many areas. Now cases and hospitalizations have blown up in those places.
The CDC has "responded" to our collective behaviors. Not "backtracked."
There, I said it. #science

Hi hoe! Hi hoe! The blogger’s life for me!
I heart Pearls. It’s Julie’s favorite comic strip and becoming mine, too. Yeah!

Great comic 😉
I always write entries in my LJ with the intention that I’m talking to myself, comments are an unexpected bonus (with the occasional exception of requests for informational assistance on various arcane topics).
That said — sometimes there aren’t any comments because your readers don’t have anything useful to add in response . . . hard to say.

Well thanks for stopping in—I have absolutely NO room to complain about the cricket chirping in my blog, invisible as I’ve been online lately. Nice to see your face again.
