    @androcat @cstross Anecdotes are excellent, though, for proving universals wrong: "everyone likes milk" "I'm lactose intolerant"

    It's real funny how people are so hung on on deduction, despite it keeling over from a single counterexample.

    Meanwhile, induction just eats contradiction for dinner.

      @cstross While I don't think I've ever got it, I know there's a real difference between 2019 me and 2026 me that can't be attributed to seven years of aging.

        @nini As about 30% of cases are asymptomatic (but *still* cause diffuse microvascular inflammation and immune system damage) you'd never know unless you ran a covid test every week (and never got a false negative).

            @cstross It might explain why the people that I know who have had Covid say they are tired all the time now.

              I recently read that people on Metformin did not have long Covid cases in their studies so far.
              I was on metformin when I caught Covid almost a year ago... luckily I have had no lingering issues.
              A 35 year old neighbor on the other hand caught it 3 times and now needs a heart transplant. I am betting the anemia is a direct result.

                @GreatBigTable @cstross After two bouts of COVID I had to start taking a smart drug to be myself again. I don't know if it's long COVID or repeated hospitalizations (or both) ... but with modafinil I'm me all day long, and without I'm an old man.

                  The sleep issues alone from Covid are devastating, hubs got it once and still can't sleep well at night. It really messes him up.

                      I know you've mentioned brain fog post-COVID. Did you notice any changes when you started taking iron?
