The weirdest one is "made in a lab"... like, would that make covid more or less dangerous?
If our enemies made covid in a lab, and I can frustrate those enemies by wearing a $2 gadget on my face

I've heard the advice, rather than suggesting friends join mastodon or the fediverse, suggest they join the server you're on, offer them your own follow list to get them started

OK, if it's not covid, that's even more terrifying
If it's not covid, we have something new and unexplained killing a ton of people

To what extent is that the Internet and to what extent is that unrelated trends?
It's not like the traditional media is particularly fact-based these days either, in a trend that seems mostly unrelated to the Internet (media concentration, end of the fairness doctrine, general enshittification)

> A significant % of the people with LC were performing 2-3 standard deviations outside the norm.
In concrete numbers, 0.49s reaction time with long covid, compared to 0.34s for healthy controls 😢

I believe this is in reference to the 10°C (20°F) drop in temperature over the last half hour, from 38°C (101°F) to something a bit more comfortable

One hypothesis is that influenza season is heating / aircon weather, when people gather indoors and keep windows closed

The poster can choose the crop, at least?
On the web client, it's in the same dialogue as the alt text; there's a "focus" circle that can be dragged around, and a preview of the resulting crop

My example is "Jesus was a refugee/IDP"
Nobody off-line would add the "IDP"
