There are now 100% free at-home covid tests available again, directly from the US Postal Service.
Please consider getting these to use before & after large gatherings, and even if you don't want them for yourself, having them on hand for other people to use is super helpful, since outside of this, we're often stuck having to get these from price-gouging pharmacies.

"Superheroes by definition don't need protections (..) they just rise above the fray, and so in naming people heroes I think we sort of undermined the necessity to really do right by them."
