AND WEAR A FUCKING MASK
I really, really hope everyone posting about having a cold or the flu feels better soon, but I really, really, REALLY hope you're all testing for Covid. Even if it wouldn't change how you treat yourself, it could make a difference in how dangerous you are to others. Please test & isolate if needed!

a pathetic show from a man who won many hearts defending 9/11 responders, many of whom were harmed by inadequate respiratory protection; such a shame that not only did stewart fail to internalize the grim reality that gvmts shirk responsibility, abandon victims, but that he’s joined in the derision.
Dear Jon Stewart c/o @weeklyshowpodcast.bsky.social
I recently watched, with great surprise and disappointment, a weeklyshowpodcast segment in which you and other "personalities," gleefully mocked and derided the relatively small subset of individuals who continue to wear a face mask in public.

Especially because he followed it up with (paraphrasing) “then they don’t want to talk about it.”
Yeah, Jon, because you just asked the only person in the room protecting themselves from illness if *they’re* sick. It’s because they now think you’re a dumbass, Jon.

The whole clip disappointed me including the part where Stewart said he asks people if they’re sick for why they’re masking.
It’s like, none of your business?!?! Weirdo behavior.

This is reason I still wear a mask on all flights and probably will do so forever. I also still carry CO2 monitor to check ventilation! My lessons (after not catching it yet AFAIK): always wear a mask during travel, in tight crowded spaces, public restrooms, hotel corridors, and elevators....

From my mental projections - this would be the year where if we are going to start seeing some out of the box shit from Covid (the after effects or a rapid increase in Long Covid cases), that this is when it would start to happen.
Going to keep my eyes/ears peeled for it…
Yay.
Hope I’m wrong.

So instead of pursuing public transit to get less cars on the road and reduce congestion and pollution, we're going in on faulty robotaxis that rely on people presumably driving to help them when they fail, apparently regularly enough for there to be an app for it. Right. Got it. Great system.
Because riders and passersby can be unreliable, Waymo pays workers in L.A. $20 or more for rescuing a robotaxi by closing a door, summoning help through an app called Honk that is like an Uber for towing companies.
When robot taxis get stuck, a secret army of humans comes to the rescue
Waymo robotaxis get stranded when a passenger leaves the door open. Tow truck operators can get paid $22 to close a door and set them free again.

i still think about the episode of reply all where they explain this jacob wohl hipster coffee shop mishigos and also gritty to the listening public
Jacob Wohl is the guy of “I overheard people talking in a hipster coffee shop about how much they love Donald Trump” fame. He’s apparently now making six figures securing pardons for fraudsters.
GOP operatives Jacob Wohl and Jack Burkman, convicted election fraudsters, were paid $960,000 in the second quarter to secure a pardon for a former nursing-home operator who defrauded the government of $38 million. Trump pardoned the man, Joseph Schwartz, last month.
