They're both odd, maybe smart, but they simply don't want to eat people food. The one currently with two eyes will lap up a bit of leftover milk from my cereal but that's about it

I had to switch their wet food after their normal stuff was no longer available due to the pandemic and it went about as well as expected

Cats are loving weird, mine will eat the dark chicken meat from a roasted bird but not the breast meat. She'll also drink the tuna water but won't touch the tuna itself.

I got her the expensive wet food once where they have like chunks of the fish with the scales and bones and stuff in there and she just licked the goop off it and left the rest alone.

She's oddly not at all picky about dry cat food though?

Edit: Here, have a picture of the weirdo

Oh that's right, the cat with one eye likes dark meat rotisserie chicken but also not white meat but not the dark meat chicken I make

He also likes lettuces. To the point he's got his own 2 little pots of sprouts on the back porch. He prefers mizuna but will eat red leaf lettuce if pressed

My weirdo will investigate my food, but usually leave it alone. Fish and chicken seem to be the exception, but only when I've made it fresh.

A million years ago, when I was unemployed, I had to get a new bag of food, and PetSmart was out of her normal salmon and brown rice flavor, so I got Chicken and brown rice. She ate the entire bag, but every night, a minute or so after I fed her, she'd come out of the room, gingerly put both front paws on my arm, sit down and just stare at me sadly, for half an hour.

This will be a bring-your-own-tent camping event (we are looking into a tent rental service!). However, there are cabins on the grounds, and there are cabins that can house up to 28 people (7 beds in each quad). There are over 400 beds on the property. The closest hotels are 15-20 minutes away by car. Cabins include: electricity, clean showers, semi-private bathrooms, TempurPedic mattresses, privacy, storage, and weather protection (cabins share a bathroom with an adjacent cabin). We will put information concerning the cabins and their capacity closer to when reservations open.

Yeah.

The other day I was thinking that perhaps the reason that the CDC/FDA dragged their feet on the child vax for so long is because opening up another segment will make the vax percentage look worse.

wanna go grub thumping?

the wait and see poo poo is hilarious, because if you go by person time, there are literally more than 100,000 person years of data. if you expect adverse effects to be normally distributed, statistically someone would have a long-term effect earlier. here is an example:

3,000,000 doses of vaccine X sold worldwide.

Increased risk of event Y within 30 days post immunization, whatever the dose.

Recommended vaccination schedule is three doses at 2, 4, and 6 months of age.

Assumptions: there is no dose effect and all 3,000,000 doses have been administered.

The risk periods following each dose do not overlap.

The person‐time at risk: 3,000,000 * 30 [person‐days] or 3,000,000 * 30/365.2425 * 1/100 000 = 2.46 [100,000 person‐years].

Background incidence rate for event Y is 4.8 cases per 100,000 person‐years (measured on unvaccinated population sharing similar demographic characteristics with the exposed population)

The expected number of cases of event Y: 2.46 * 4.8 = 11.8.

nah, the dems will fumble to pass anything and the budget/default showdown put off until december will completely overshadow whatever wet fart they put out. dems will take all of the blame for the increasingly worse covid situation and economic/supply chain collapse. trump will start campaigning again and ride to victory in 2024 as completely alzheimered (but still voting) boomers say "we need him back to finish the job he started with covid".. just like the boomers voted george w back in to finish the job he started with the iraq war (a literal thing my boomer dad told me as he voted for george w term two)

hey Obama bailed out the banks, threw up his hands while they turned around and took people's houses, and not only got his party and legacy stomped on but also managed to break American epistemology

A decade later Trump took action to keep people in their houses while handing money to the banks, so you can't say we'll learn nothing this time around. The lesson will probably be that direct checks make people too politicized so they're a bad idea

In this study, peripheral blood mononuclear cells from young and old patients with COVID-19 were examined phenotypically, transcriptionally and functionally to reveal age-, time- and severity-specific adaptations. Gene signatures within memory B cells and plasmablasts correlated with reduced frequency of antigen-specific B cells and neutralizing antibodies in older patients with severe COVID-19. Moreover, these patients exhibited exacerbated T cell lymphopenia, which correlated with lower plasma interleukin-2, and diminished antigen-specific T cell responses. Single-cell RNA sequencing revealed augmented signatures of activation, exhaustion, cytotoxicity and type I interferon signaling in memory T and natural killer cells with age. Although cytokine storm was evident in both age groups, older individuals exhibited elevated levels of myeloid cell recruiting factors. Furthermore, we observed redistribution of monocyte and dendritic cell subsets and emergence of a suppressive phenotype with severe disease, which was reversed only in young patients over time. This analysis provides new insights into the impact of aging on COVID-19.
