Something not considered in this paper, Post Viral Syndromes, may also be a factor. Though some acknowledgement of post viral syndromes dates to at least the 1950’s, it’s only with the COVID19 pandemic that modern medicine has really begun to take a look at this with some seriousness. These PVS’s can affect many organs in the body, specifically the nervous system, and including cognition.

Thornless was also a ‘selling point’. Mine were a gift from another gardener. And being raspberries they try to spread beyond their allotted space. So I dig them and put them up on freecycle. It’s super popular, and they can spread their DNA in someone else’s garden. :-D
ooh, that’s a lovely rose.
Nice Pic!! We’re already eating some yellow thornless raspberries. Yay, Summer!!
I would say escaping from quick sand and escaping from an alligator chasing me were two major concerns in my childhood. LoL, global climate change was maybe not even on the list, for which I will curse the petroleum industry.
Anyone got a non-YT link? Or just the recipe? Something? TY in advance!!!
I know a place, where chorus frogs live.
Circumhorizontal Arc is fine for it’s accuracy, and Fire Rainbow is a whole lot more catchy. I mean, a Pineapple is neither Pine, nor Apple, and we’re ok with that.
I got tickets for them this weekend! Can’t wait!
Opting out is easy. Come to Pixelfed, they sure as hell aren’t IG.
Thank you, that’s most helpful. And no I won’t take your words blindly. Trust, and verify. :-) I’ll need to make sure my bank/ credit union is on with GNU Taler, tho’ it sounds unlikely, at this time.
FedNow looks very interesting.
Hellifiknow. I’m just some frog on the intarwebs who wants to learn. :-) Can someone elaborate on GNU Taler?
I’m annoyed by Paypal, Venmo (and other similar vehicles) because they use what should be a simple process (one person giving money to another person) to invade our privacy and to siphon value towards billionaires. I’d rather be able to transfer funds with the simplicity and precision of giving the person standing before me a ‘fiver’. And without someone else making bank off the transaction, for clarity’s sake.

I like GNU Taler because it’s privacy preserving for the customer, is Free, Open Source, and is self hosted. And also because it’s not a new/ different currency.

Grumpy conservative dislikes Social Justice Workers/Warriors but chipper botanist makes a pun, saying Hypericum (perforatum) a.k.a. St. John’s Wort is a good genus. Note: the leaves have tiny holes/ perforations, hence the species.
