The cybertruck lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, spinning its wheels trying to turn itself over, but it can't. Not without your help. But you're not helping.
joining the "cybertruck owners only" group on fb is one of the best decisions i've ever made. every so often when i'm scrolling through fb getting pissed off, i get to see a little treat like this

Clinicians who actually saw the horrors of COVID (and didn’t get infected, because masks fucking work 🤷🏻‍♂️) are pretty pissed at this. Especially the @newyorker.com - I expect better 🤦🏻‍♂️
The thesis of the book is that early COVID lockdowns weren't worth it and mid-COVID mitigation measures like masks, contact tracing and business closures don't work.

This is laughably false and the authors have endorsed the people now running Trump's HHS.

As you may know, I have stopped using Twitter, and have decided to reproduce some of my more memorable threads here for posterity. Here’s one I hold wrote after a particularly engaging swordfighting lesson.

Buckle up, swordfighting fans, because I *have* studied my Agrippa!

the kicker here:

"But if the political is personal? How does that ever happen? If there’s never any divide between personal life and political life then aren’t we all doomed to partisan warfare at some point?”

yeah man! your marriage collapsed because politics happens to people & your wife cared.

when you dig into the history of menswear, you find the same stories repeated. men who moralize traditional aesthetics rarely consider how their "tradition" was considered a corruption by an earlier generation, who wore things hated by people before them

There is no part of worker protections that includes "having to work with people who use hateful racial slurs."

Being in an abusive environment that a co-worker makes is shitty! Workers should not have to tolerate that!
“Those of us on the left should be fighting to improve protections for workers of all races, and thereby for the betterment of people’s material conditions regardless of their views,” Arash Azizi argues:
Why the Cinnabon Story Doesn’t Make Me Happy
The left should be promoting working-class solidarity, not delighting in seeing workers summarily dismissed.

Makary is making *very serious* allegations that the FDA previously hid COVID vaccine deaths in children.

Why hasn't he just released the evidence?

Because he excels at theater. It's priming the audience. A preview of coming attractions.

Holy moly: The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope construction is completed! That's fantastic news — much needed right now — and I am very much looking forward to when this beast launches. It has 100X the field of view of Hubble.

One. Hundred. *At the same resolution*.
