The left image is Renaissance Florence; on the right is an Atlanta interchange, shown at the same scale. This was my first image to go viral, thanks to a repost by Lloyd Alter at Treehugger. For weeks, I had to keep proving that the scale was the same; I still have proof. 1/

The NFL says it will halt the use of “race-norming” — which assumed Black players started out with lower cognitive functioning — in a $1 billion settlement of brain injury claims. The practice had made it harder for Black players to qualify. apne.ws/hDTRYVl

The evidence so far suggests that a full vaccine dose: 1. effectively eliminates the risk of Covid death 2. nearly eliminates the risk of hospitalization 3. drastically reduces the ability to infect somebody else. All of that is also true about the virus variants. (7/x)

President-elect Biden's German shepherd, Major, will soon be the first dog to go from a shelter to the White House. That shelter, the Delaware Humane Association, is planning a virtual "indoguration" ceremony for Major on Sunday. trib.al/YDWhbmj
