I found this strange arrangement of discarded cicada (aburazemi) skins on the trunk of a tree in Yoyogi Park. Like a parliament, or a Black Mass, of insectkind. It’s the first time that I have seen this.

So let me get this straight: Jeff Bezos is now worth $200 billion, but Amazon still can't afford to provide paid sick leave, hazard pay and personal protective equipment for thousands of warehouse workers?

What, if anything, is good about #SARSCoV2?
1. It is evolving very slowly, so making neutralizing antibodies and vaccines have a better chance to succeed
2. All of the recent reports support a solid B (antibody) and T cell immune response
3. There are no documented reinfections

It's great to know that America's pandemic response is being led by someone who thinks the "1917 pandemic"(which began in 1918) "probably ended the Second World War" (which began in 1939).
With stats like these, no wonder President DrinkBleach thinks everything looks super rosy!

Thank you, @davidpilling, for taking us with you on this beautiful journey to Shitamachi.
I have been travelling to Tokyo in my mind many times over the last couple of weeks and can't wait to go there again for real once this is over.

When all this is over let’s remember who looked out for us. And who didn’t.
