Colorado health officials diagnosed the West Nile Virus in a La Plata County resident Monday, marking the state’s first human case of the virus this year.According to a Monday news release from the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, officials have found West Nile in mosquitos in seven other counties throughout Colorado so far this season.Officials identified the mosquito-borne virus in Arapahoe, Boulder, Delta, Denver, Larimer, Pueblo and Weld counties, but those areas have not documented any human cases yet.“Mosquito populations are at historic levels in some parts of the state due to the high rainfall this year,” Monday’s news release stated. “This unusually high mosquito activity along with known presence of the virus has caused an elevated risk of West Nile virus transmission to humans.”Some experts disagree, arguing that the relationship between rain and West Nile is “extremely paradoxical,” with more cases in d...

I'm a Twitter power user. Threads isn’t cutting it (yet)

Published Fri, 21 Feb 2025 21:25:31 GMT

For years I've been a Twitter power user. Which is to say, I've posted multiple times most days, actively engaged with followers and made a conscious effort to increase my reach on the platform.You can now find me on Threads, the Twitter alternative cobbled together by Facebook parent Meta.It's not that I harbor a burning need to buddy up to Metameister Mark Zuckerberg. I don't much care for Facebook and seldom use Instagram.Like many Twitter users, though, I've found the platform increasingly unpleasant since Elon Musk acquired it for an insane $44 billion and proceeded to turn it into a playground for liars and bullies.Twitter is no longer a town square where information and opinions can be safely shared. It's now the internet's Mordor, where a Dark Lord is marshaling orcs and goblins to dominate all of Middle Earth.Which is to say, whatever fun that was once found on the platform is largely gone. Now you're constantly looking over your shoulder to see if trolls are converging on ...
