- Reposted by Jackie 🍩I'd like to add that like in all industries, when we stop understanding how our tools work, we become entirely dependent on the corporate entities that own the mold. We are trading the ability to build and repair for the convenience of being permanent tenants in someone else's infrastructure/subs.

- I know when I applied to public university here in CT in 2021, I was required to show proof of vaccination. I asked my doc draw to draw titers and even got a booster for one of them. Why do I get the feeling that isn’t required in FL?
