Your annual reminder: mid-summer is way too early to get a #flu shot.
Got a press release today from GSK announcing it has started shipping flu vaccine doses. You may start seeing signs in pharmacies about availability soon. Better to be vaxed closer to when flu starts spreading.

Here's a strange insect unknown to most non-entomologists: the pygmy mole cricket. Tridactylidae: Neotridactylus apicalis. I photographed this one at the Stengl Lost Pines field station in Bastrop, Texas.

The Swiss have postal banking https://www.post.ch/en and it works amazingly well, services the whole country no matter how remote the village, and is extremely cheap fees-wise.

So we ask you, readers: Will you help us gauge the scope of the blast radius?

So yesterday, I got my first wheelchair as a result of complications from long covid (primarily chronic fatigue and breathlessness from walking). It's made a huge difference for me so far even after just one day - previously I wouldn't have been able to walk more than a few minutes without having to stop and rest for twice as long whilst I catch my breath, but yesterday I was out with a friend for FIVE HOURS, and not once did I lose my breath or feel any extra fatigue! I'm so glad I finally stopped trying to just struggle through it and decided to get the chair, as it's making such a positive impact.

To other wheelchair users out there in the Fediverse: I'd be grateful for any advice you're able to offer me as a new wheelchair user. Anything that you think would be helpful to know would be very gratefully received!
