@dch it would never occur to me to warn someone who identified as just vegetarian about animal products that didn't result in the death of the animal :flan_think: I use vegan for that exclusively, and during my years as a vegetarian that was always the generally understood definition, vegetarian=no animal flesh...but that 100% includes aquatic, so it is always very disturbing to me when I see "vegetarians" eating shrimp or fish and then I have to recalibrate and ask lots of questions. :flan_think: but then hanging around with Europeans the definition was entirely different and so was the reasoning. Now it's very messy everywhere so I just always ask the questions. XD

@sng @phessler he's gunning for net neutral on the evil scale and I mean, we do need that improvement. This will do a lot of good. We can save about half the price on three meds already, and my dad can stop being stubborn and actually treat his glaucoma!

This has some potentially life-changing generic drug pricing. Can't file with insurance, need a new prescription. $30 inhalers, some mental health meds, it's patchy but check it out.

Remember how we thought we knew what Pluto looked like, but we actually didn't because we had been working off artists' renditions and some HST smudges? Then, all of a sudden, we had *amazing* high-quality, true color photos of that gorgeous thing with its eerie lack of color and surprise heart? <3
We didn't even know Ultima Thule existed five years ago. Here's what it looks like as I'm going to bed! Tomorrow we'll actually know for real!
So happy to meet this icy rocky planet-stuff baby. \o/
