A key point in Fahrenheit 451 is that books were banned because they made people depressed and uncomfortable. The novel's protagonist, Montag, is taken into custody after he reads a poem that makes a woman cry because she realizes the emptiness of her life.

It’s such a mindfuck to see ppl walk around in LA without masks because we KNOW the air is toxic. Even if the AQI is good, 9/11 showed us that the air was deadly even though officials said it was safe. It’s mind boggling to see people walking around like everything is normal🧵1/

Make no mistake… “personal responsibility” Covid policies helped lead to this.
People have been told for years that only the “vulnerable” are at risk. That they’re acceptable losses. That their health is no one else’s responsibility.
Staying home to protect others is no longer “cool”.

You may think that neurological symptoms in #LongCovid are for old people, but it is the opposite. Young adults (18–44 years) and middle-aged (45–64 years) with mild acute #COVID cases (non-hospitalized), represent 90% of the cases of #NeuroCovid. Read here: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Frustrating to see the outrage of liberals now as Trump appoints disruptive figures to leadership over US health when these same liberals spent the last four years content to just let Biden do nothing at all to alter an indefensible status quo. Entirely predictable outcome.

The refusal of both the left and Democrats to turn a reconstruction of US public health systems into a progressive populist platform after a pandemic killed over a million US residents and bankrupted many more is perhaps the single biggest, most odious political fail of our era.

My doctor once told me that every disability/chronic illness you have is in itself a full time job.
So if one *has* to work (like me), you have your job that pays, and your job(s) that you also can't quit.
