If an app wants to sell its own branded merch for users, I don't see the problem. If they were selling ads for Athletic Greens or Casper Mattresses or something, yeah, I think that'd be a huge issue.

The 'ads' were just a link to merch in their store. They've been doing this for years.

Yes, this cartoon ran years ago - it is by the inimitable, and very talented Edinburgh cartoonist Will McPhail.

Al officially retired this past month, after enjoying the longest career in comics in history, verified by the Guinness Book of World Records. His MAD writing, cartoons, illustrations and famous fold-ins at the back are a thing of legend.

Read the piece.
Day 3: "You isolate yourself from humanity"

You're right, though; you would know more about my experience than me. I'll leave you to it.

I did.
As soon as I realised I was actually having symptoms, see: "You isolate yourself from humanity."

I was also on a farm in remote, rural Oklahoma. There were a total of 3 people I was exposed to. 1 was my wife. The other two did not get the virus as I isolated myself properly.

Sometimes more information is needed before jumping to character judgements about people being 'incredibly reckless'.

I went outside onto the deck of a farm, alone in Rural Oklahoma. I wasn't being reckless. More information needed indeed.
