Typically, I try to pay as little attention to american politics as possible.

But I'm really hoping Mamdani wins because the world needs more democratic socialists like him.

Also, sexual predators should not be in office, or any positions of power, EVER.

Agree, and also N95s with head straps will get a better seal than ear loop straps.

Smart people know that getting reinfected over and over again with Covid is a terrible idea.

Tom Hanks understands that Covid is not over & that masks work!

He says he’s in a play and can’t get sick.

“I’ve had covid enough. I don’t want to do that again”

This is the way. Wearing a mask helps keep you healthy and it protects those around you.

A respirator like an N95 is best!

The way the constant effort to erase COVID is such a unifying force for bad people in powerful positions, no matter their nominal political affiliation, highlights the class aspect of COVID.

The people at the top are letting the people at the bottom die, just to save face.

The second plague pandemic of bubonic plague started in 1348, and remained circulating throughout Europe for over 300 years, and globally for many more centuries. In part because people decided not to get rid of fleas, lice, and rats that spread the disease.

What does it mean to "learn to live with" an infectious disease?

It leads to events like the Plague of London where ~25% of London's population was killed off, because had people decided to "live with" fleas, lice, and rats for over 300 years.

Trying to explain my energy limitations to people without ME/CFS is the one thing that sort of makes it understandable for me why so many people are rolling the dice with infinite covid

They truly do not have a mental model for a body that sometimes requires you to budget even conversational energy

🧵The Canadian House of Commons Standing Committee on Science and Research has put forward a motion to release ALL data in relation to federal research funding applications.

This motion was put forward by conservative MPs who are skeptical of funding being allocated "fairly."
