Pick Up That Can

But… Where are 102 and 103 then? Are they on a separate street?

Oh wait I get it now. It’s a weird choice but ok. Where I live we just subdivide by adding letters. E.g 20 subdivide and becomes 20 and 20A.

Careful of your eyes! I’m pretty sure you need a special filter or telescope for the sun

While the conclusion of it being replaced with an LED is obviously not what happened, I think it’s very possible that the sun was often orange for him when he was growing up, because of air pollution.

30 years ago, depending on where you lived, there were more cars on the road with less efficient fuel consumption, more people using fireplaces, more people burning trash, less regulation of various industries etc. Searching for images with the phrase “smoke pollution sun” will give you a lot of photos of orange suns, and they’re definitely not all altered for effect. I’ve seen red suns in real life too when wildfires are really bad near my area even though that’s thankfully rare.

We know not the sun itself that is orange, but in a polluted environment it certainly looks like it is - and if you don’t get a great education, I can see how you might think that’s the actual color of the sun.

Super interesting. Maybe your immune system wasn’t so much suppressed, but just too occupied with everything else being on fire to focus on only your skin… But then why would it get worse for other people instead? Both COVID and bodies are really annoyingly complicated.

Covid has been linked with all kinds of immune, inflammation and skin issues. Recently there have been investigations into a possible correlation of people with AD and increased risk of infection and/or symptoms. I’d say trust your instincts. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40219685/

Hugely believable. The place is running on skeleton crew who have to waste time catering to Musk’s ego whims.
