@thev.bsky.social is always on the nose, but this one especially made me laugh. One to add to the large genre of Covid oxymorons. See also "Masks are bad because 1) the holes in the weave are too big to trap viruses and 2) children are getting immunity debt from wearing masks".

I thought yesterday's Independent SAGE briefing about the failure of government to follow behavioural science was so good, that I did a substack summarising the session, with several short clips of our experts. open.substack.com/pub/christin...

As a compulsive reader, it’s been disconcerting to find myself unable to read books during the pandemic; perhaps because I read so much for work, perhaps worrying about the world. "Ocean” is one of the very few exceptions, and what a comfort it’s been. Thank you so much @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com.

My dog-eared copy of "The Ocean at the End of the Lane" with my actual dog's ear for scale. The dog is a golden labrador and there are pink flowers behind her.

NZ reduces community spread of respiratory pathogens down to summer levels - permanently 3. NZ chooses to eliminate poverty 4. Wait I haven't finis
