    It's obviously right next to Klaus-von-Bayerische-Motorenwerke-Straße. They didn't even try to seem legit, did they?

    Some still do (it's up to the franchisee iirc) but it's not easy to enjoy a beer from one of those McDonald's paper cups.

    The NYT article they link to in the first paragraph does a good job providing that exact thing: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/02/15/science/camels-sculptures...

    According to TFA (a few paragraphs above your quotes, even) we won't stay at 1.5 degrees.

    Honestly, reading comments like these and articles like the OP has convinced me that we, as humans, will not at all be prepared for the next pandemic. And the one after that. These…

    That's such a mischaracterisation, I don't even know where to start. That Quay-guy obviously searched for "furin" on pubmed, found some papers (that don't even say that - and most …

    In Germany incidence of CVST is around .3-.5/100,000 per year. (Higher in women under 50; some undiagnosed cases probably notwithstanding) Vaxzevira (the A-Z vaccine) has been in u…
