    I'm tempted to post this and then leave. I just might.

    Is it me or has this week just been brutal on the climate?

    Climate change is horrifying. And it's here.

    At this point in the pandemic, a mask is the simplest precaution you can take.

    Shade will help Portland's current heat wave. But the city lost nearly 800 trees during the ice storm this winter. This is climate change. One extreme storm after the next.

    You really can never go home again. Not when we've altered the climate this much.

    This is a tragedy. The current covid deaths are preventable. They are among the unvaccinated. And even the small percentage that hits the vaccinated are preventable. But we're just letting the disease run amok among the unvaccinated. It's not okay.

    This is heartbreaking. Nearly every new death is among the unvaccinated. That means that roughly 300 deaths per day could have been prevented. Easily. With two shots available to every US citizen.

    So true. Also: communicating your boundaries in any situation doesn't make you an asshole.

    Being professional in communicating your boundaries doesn't make you an asshole.

    It's really not that hard. Just ask if someone is vaccinated and know where you draw the line.

    It was really great to report a little good news this year. Breastfeeding moms: The COVID vaccine is safe and effective for you — and it might even have protective benefits for your nursing baby. Talk about good news.

    This story certainly struck a few chords within me. If you became a new mom in 2020, it's worth a read.

    "During a pandemic, it's okay to be a party pooper." I'm not sure why this study is a surprise, but it's further evidence that staying home saves lives.

    Wow!!! Vaccines for 6-month-olds could happen as early as this fall!

    NEW: Pfizer will begin giving kids 5-11yrs two doses of 10 micrograms (a third of the dose given to adolescents and adults), and 3 micrograms to kids under 5.

    Wow. Vaccines actually increased after the CDC changed their mask guidelines.
