As influenza season approaches, some Americans, and especially parents, are worried that, if they or their children should become ill, it may not be easy to know which disease they have — the flu or Covid-19. They are correct. Most symptoms of the two diseases are so similar that, short of a test — or two or three tests — it won’t be possible to know for sure. But there are some clues. (And it is possible to have both infections at the same time; some patients in China this year were found to have both.) But first: get a flu shot. It is not yet clear whether the United States will have much of a flu season this year. Flu activity in the Southern Hemisphere, which is often predictive of activity in the United States, was 99 percent below normal during its winter. Epidemiologists believe that is because Australians, New Zealanders, South Africans, Chileans and other residents of the southern half of the globe were wearing masks, staying several feet apart and washing their hands to prev...

#LGBTQ #MichaelCHall #SexualFluidity Michael C Hall addressed his sexuality in a new interview with the Daily Beast, saying he is “not all the way heterosexual.” The 47-year-old actor, who portrayed #LGBTQ characters such as David Fisher on “Six Feet Under,” Hedwig in “Hedwig and the Angry Itch,” and the Emcee in “Cabaret,” spoke about whether or not he has had same-sex experiences. “I think there’s a spectrum. I am on it. I’m heterosexual. But if there was a percentage, I would say I was not all the way heterosexual. I think playing the emcee required me to fling a bunch of doors wide open because that character I imagined as pansexual,” Hall said. “Yeah, like I made out with Michael Stuhlbarg every night doing that show. I think I have always leaned into any fluidity in terms of my sexuality,” he continued. And while the former “Dexter” star has “never had an intimate relationship with another man,” Hall, who lost his father when he was 11 years old, said the absen...

#SNL #KateMcKinnon #RBG  #RuthBaderGinsburg #Tribute Kate McKinnon paid a touching tribute to the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg during Saturday Night Live's season premiere. As Colin Jost and Michael Che wrapped up the "Weekend Update" segment of the show, the camera panned to McKinnon, sitting in the front row of the audience dressed as the feminist icon for what may be the final time. ❤️ pic.twitter.com/8XOVsjCSMS — Saturday Night Live - SNL (@nbcsnl) October 4, 2020 McKinnon, wearing prop glasses and a black robe with a lace collar, bowed her head and pressed her right hand to her chest before looking up in a silent tribute to Ginsburg, who died of complications of metastatic pancreatic cancer at the age of 87 on September 18. The screen then displayed "rest in power" over a shot of the items that make up McKinnon's costume before going to a commercial break. You can see the full tribute below, starts at 2’59”.

#Burners #BurningMan #BlackRockCity #BurningManCulture A dust storm overwhelmed the road to Burning Man this week. Clouds of  billowing white dust  obscured the caravan of cars snaking through the barren Nevada desert, according to  recent news reports . Travelers parked in ditches and covered their faces with kerchiefs until the squall passed. The drive is an August ritual for more than 70,000 attendees who have descended upon Black Rock City for nearly three decades and are gathered this week to build colossal art installations and dance nude in the scorching summer heat. (You can  watch it live  here.) First came  the artist hippies  in the 1990s. Insanely rich tech moguls  arrived on their private jets  two decades later. Models and celebrities followed. Last year,  politics seeped into  the parade of whirligigs and hat-festooned cyclists when a group of President Trump impersonators arrived, and booths were set up fo...

#LGBTQ #LoveIsLove #LALGBTCenter Conversion therapy has never been a cure for homosexuality because there is nothing to cure. This “therapy” only hurts it’s victims. There is no scientific evidence proving sexuality can be changed. Being  # gay  is a normal part of human sexuality.  # lgbt   Conversion therapy has never been a cure for homosexuality because there is nothing to cure. This “therapy” only hurts it’s victims.

They happen while black people are going about their everyday lives, only to be interrupted by someone calling the police for the thinnest of suspicions. In the past month, more than a handful of such interactions have attracted widespread attention on social media — and, in turn, in national outlets like The Times, CNN and The Washington Post. “It happens so frequently to people of color that we don’t often think of it as a big deal or as particularly newsworthy,” said Paul Butler, a Georgetown University law professor who is the author of “ Chokehold: Policing Black Men .” He added, “It’s humiliating and aggravating and upsetting, but the...
