It occurs to me, and I'm sure I'm not the only one, that what is happening with the ultra rich oppressing and exploiting everyone else is a mirror of what humans have done to the earth.

Convince me I'm wrong: Food price levels in Canada and the US are primarily the result of pandemic disruptions and the food supply chain greedily avoiding cuts in inflated prices once the pandemic subsided. Anti-government populist politicians prefer to blame the government.

Masking in public isn't just about protecting yourself, but about protecting high-risk people around you too. If we want to build a collectivist society rather than this hyper-individualistic "you do you" nonsense we see in the West, we have to be the change we want to see

Covid-19 roughly doubled the risk of vascular dementia in adults 50+ and for those with pre-existing mental illness the risk rose ~5x.

A similar signal appears after other viral infections - a reminder that viruses aren’t "mild" when it comes to brain health 🧠

To be clear:

LA County has declared a state of emergency BECAUSE OF the federal government.

The Feds, LA County is (correctly) saying, have CAUSED the emergency.

This is a striking political moment of internal collapse. Local govts feeling compelled to protect their ppl from … their own govt.
