The high cost of vaccine hesitancy. Interesting take. While it doesn’t make sense to me personally, for the willfully unvaccinated, it may be easier to accept the preexisting risk of contracting Covid than to embrace the small but unfamiliar risks posed by the vaccines.” 

What vaccinated people should really know about their risk from the delta variant.

  1. The one about time-blindness suggesting analog clocks instead of digital because it shows the passage of time better? I don’t have time-blindness but analog clocks for some reason just don’t mean anything to my brain at all, ha. I can read time from it if I spend a bit of time looking at it, but I much prefer looking at digital. I’m not sure how I visualize time, but it’s not analog for sure.

  2. So many good links in this post. I just got sucked in to many. And the peach thing – simple yet mind-blowing.

  3. That peach cutting tip is great! I also do not cut peaches or any stone fruit that way but will try that going forward!

  4. Time blindness is fascinating! I have the opposite of that – I am always super aware of the (literal clock) time, and I have a very good idea of how long routines take me. Usually within a minute of two. So, so interesting. Thanks for sharing – helps give me some insights into others’ behavior!
