@alice @benroyce @lispi314 Good! Though you could make it even easier:
At my workplace, we’re offered some routine vaccines (Covid, influenza etc) right on the premises. Book a 10min slot through the intranet portal, walk over at the appointed time, present your health insurance card, get the jab.
If you don’t feel fit the next day, no problem: we can always take paid sick leave, and only need a doctor’s note from the third day onwards.

@alice @benroyce @lispi314 Not to be an annoying European, but when I lived in Denmark, not only did they have five weeks’ fully paid holidays, but one could take up to five mental health days a year, where if you woke up and thought ‘can’t face work today’, you can take the day off.
And the bottom line is that companies make more money from happy and attentive people.

you're "annoying" to only a certain sort of american asshole, and if you aggrevate them, that's a plus in my book

@renata @LukefromDC @CppGuy @alice
there is also the tomacco
hybrid tomato-tobacco
the funny thing about that one is it was in a simpson's episode as a fictional plant. then someone successfully created it inspired by the show 😆
potatoes, tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, tobacco, petunias, nightshade, etc:
it's all one closely related family of plants
i would argue the most generous plant family to humans, by far
@benroyce @renata @LukefromDC @CppGuy @alice nightshades are right up there with the brassicas: wild mustard, from which we derived broccoli, cauliflower, kholrabi, cabbage, Brussels sprouts, bok choy, collard greens, rutabaga, turnip, mustard... the list goes on a bit

@benroyce @BashStKid @alice @lispi314 Agreed. The only “annoying” part is that I’m jealous 😆 - because , here in the US, people’s well-being isn’t important to the government - and a large part of the population votes to keep it that way.

I'd get them again in a fucking heartbeat, because science and social responsibility fucking rock 🤘

@Wyatt_H_Knott @alice @benroyce Travel for work is for work, it should be part of work hours and paid.

I always get shots done separate days. That way if I have a negative reaction, I know which Jab done me dirty.
@w_b I figure I'm going to collect them all like Pokémon anyway, so might as well catch 'em all as soon as they're available.

@benroyce @CppGuy @alice When
I was 15 there was a huge meningitis epidemic. People were dying. So everyone got vaxxed. I went with a schoolfriend of mine and her mom. My friend was afraid of needles and I was too. I was, though, more afraid of dying.
I went first and got it, it was fine.
My friend, though, a 15 year old teen, made this RIDICULOUS scene, cried, screamed, the drama lasted one hour (1/2)@renata I wish I'd had the meningitis vaccine. I got meningitis just before my 23rd birthday, by my birthday a couple days later I was hooked up to machines in the ER. It took a month to return to work (I should've stayed out for two, but bills were piling up), and it took years to relearn my vocabulary.

I use the pharmacy at the grocery store so it's not inconvenient since I'm there weekly.

Ukraine's cyber police detained two men who tried to steal government funds from a local hospital.
The two allegedly hacked the PC of the hospital's accountant.
They then transferred more than $115,000 from the hospital's budget to their own company's accounts.

@evan "how much time should you spend on a woodworking project?"
a chair?
a table?
a wardrobe?
a system of cabinets across a house?
-
@evan I'm choosing "4 hours or less", not because the volunteer should work less but because they should be paid more (i.e. at all) 🙃

@evan if I decide tomorrow to stop working on any OSS I’ve ever done as either a contributor or creator that’s…. Totally fine. I’ve never promised anything else.
