More Vaccinations and Other Stuff
Nov. 13th, 2021 11:34 amEris got her first COIVD-19 vaccine on Monday.
Your Local Epidemiologist had an interesting post about rubella, as a case-study of a disease that's been suppressed through widespread vaccination for the sake of a particularly vulnerable group (pregnant women), even though it's mild for most (less severe than COVID-19).
The lack of quiet leisure has been driving me mad. Eris is anything but quiet. Julie did finally get her out of the house today to play some of Niantic's new Pikmin walkabout.
I did get some time for media etc. I finished Beastars, which was pretty good. I watched Weathering with You, which is for sure one of Shinkai's best, and very much captures an aspect of the present mood. The new Magic set is out, and it's pretty fun (for the first time in a long time it shares a common setting with the last; after last set's warewolf Halloween, this one centers around a vampire wedding). I've been really enjoying the webcomic Sleepless Domain, though it has the usual hazard of narrative webcomics, as you start getting invested in the story you start to notice how much the pace of publication is glacially slow. (Still, it's a good one and the first collection is out in print now if you like that sort of thing).
My indie TTRPG group finished a run of Urban Shadows. Don't know what we'll do next. Maybe Dreampunk, now that it's out.
Maybe I should watch the new Dune movie?
Have some cooking plans for this weekend, and getting ready for Thanksgiving at home next week.
