Society only chose option 1 because they were lied to.

“It’s just a cold”
“Kids are fine”
“Herd immunity”
"Only the vulnerable are at risk"

Repeat it enough times and people believe there’s no danger.

Denial is easy. Prevention takes effort.

Another Random Thought…. When we get on the other side of this hellscape, remember it. So we never return. And tend the garden of democracy, because we see now how easy it is to take it for granted and nearly lose it all in a blink of an eye. It is precious. Do not let evil weeds take hold.

Masking discourse is on again and I’ll just say if you see people masking when few others are it’s likely because they’ve determined that for them, in that setting, the benefit of not catching (or spreading) whatever’s going around is worth the cost of masking. It’s rarely more complicated than that

Hey, an occasional reminder:

Should you be fighting fascism here in the US? Yes, you should!

Are you the one who decides how best you can do that? Yes, you are!

Should the people who decide that you're not doing it right (i.e., the way they want you to) fuck off into the sun? Yes, they should!

AOC: Fox News and the right-wing would have you believe that these American values are something out of The Communist Manifesto. But let me tell you Fox News, I don’t believe in healthcare, labor, and human rights because I’m a Marxist.. I believe it because I was a waitress.

AOC: What they like to call as radical, I believe is common sense.

I believe that when a person gets sick, they shouldn’t go bankrupt in the wealthiest country in the history of the world. Common sense

I believe that a minimum wage should cover the minimum cost to live. Common sense...

I slept on it but I’m still mad. I live in Texas a red state and I’m still mad. I’m watching open corruption in our country and I’m still mad. I’m watching my country men and woman fall prey to con men and evil ideology and I’m still mad. I have to work while my world is falling apart. I’m still mad

I don’t think it’s widely appreciated yet just how much COVID disinformation is an assault on democracy.

COVID conspiracy theories were the best recruitment tool for the far right in decades.

They’ve left us damaged—undermined faith in our governing institutions, science, and modern medicine.

It’s up to us because Congress isn’t going to help us. They aren’t even sounding the ALARM which is why many Americans have no idea what we’re facing. Do what you can. If you can’t make it to the protest, just sharing videos and photos is extremely helpful as we can’t rely on the media either.

Your Daily Affirmation:

I am calm, but not silent. I am cautious, but ready to move.
I respect your passion, your pain, and your persistence.
I am tolerant, kind, and empathetic, but I will not be fucked with. I am not afraid.

In his parting message @jimacosta.bsky.social said we should all post:

I will not give into the lies.
I will not give into the fear.

We understand the assignment, Jim. And fuck @cnn.com.

When I study history
I wonder how it was
that so many people
could just go about their days
as the world they knew ended,
but this afternoon
I responded to banal emails,
engaged in small talk,
and sat in pointless meetings,
so as I just went about my day
I thought to myself: oh.

A few uncomfortable truths:

COVID is MORE “common” than the “common cold”

It circulates MORE than the flu, even during “flu season”

There’s no “COVID season” as COVID is present all year round

These are facts that ppl find hard to accept as it would mean they need to wear a mask in public spaces

The only way to avoid Long Covid is not to get Covid, and there's a lot of Covid around. Hospitalizations are again rising in Ontario. 1 in 9 Canadian adults have experienced #LongCovid.

Unmasked doctors and dentists make it difficult for people to get the care they need. 91% of clinically vulnerable people are avoiding or delaying getting critical medical work because Covid is worse option.
