Fallibilism is the idea that any idea can be wrong
It relies on the assumption that nothing can be absolutely proven. Every idea needs to have some assumptions
I like it because it doesn't say any ideas are wrong, but it suggests we should avoid being dogmatic about our ideas

Do they know how much people post? Daily? Are they aware most of it is already available, like to everyone?
Putting aside the tyrannical posturing, are they essentially asking to be added to your close friends list?

So, if this happens, Canadian artists essentially aren't going to be able to take jobs in the US unless they've been silent on the administration for half a decade (which, let's be honest, is unlikely). Absolutely wild, dystopian stuff.

An Oregon pilot program giving cash to homeless youths sees a staggering reduction in homelessness. The program gave participants $1,000 cash payments each month for two years, and at the end of the project's first phase, 91% of participants reported being in stable housing.

It’s #WorldAIDSDay and I really hope the Long Covid advocates who love to say “Airborne AIDS” take moment to reflect
People use the word AIDS flippantly without any consideration that HIV used to be a death sentence
Covid is serious, but there is room to be respectful towards both pandemics

I was diagnosed with #HIV in 1998, when I was 30.
Many of my friends had died of AIDS. I did not expect to live to 50.
I’m 58 now.
HIV treatment works.
Treatment also makes it impossible for me to pass HIV on during sex.
Ensure HIV treatment for all.
End HIV stigma.
