Posting a poor-me message after people are justifiably outraged at you for knowingly putting them at risk of getting seriously ill is... I mean, do you not have friends?

And do people really think COVID is cleansed by outdoor air? "I only took my mask off to take pictures with others" isn't a great thing to admit when you're COVID positive either. 🙄

Welp, the "I caught covid at ALA" posts are rolling in. As well as at least NWL librarian who attended an award knowing she had covid.

The CDC has finally acknowledged that SARS-CoV-2 is not a typical “winter” respiratory virus, and COVID-19 is a threat that can surge throughout the year.

If Biden can't campaign he should consider passing the torch, but the elite press (and especially the NYT) is desperately trying to will this into existence. And it's really gross. (2/2)

Fucking unbelievable that the big publications are running with this as the lead story after the Supreme Court just promised to install a convicted felon rapist insurrectionist as Emperor for Life.

Okay, unrelated: I looked up elephant feet when I discovered hippo toes. Elephants have toenails but not separated toes. Hippos appear to have toes without toenails. What is nature doing??

Plains state that could use its oil money to begin pivoting to green energy (plains=lots of sun and wind) and continue making money that way, but instead chooses to sue neighboring state for going after green energy. Their argument uses the EPA and Clean Air Act, like they actually love those...

Under Trump, the Pentagon ran an anti-China psyop mission to spread fear of China's vaccines through the Philippines and through Muslim populations. They made tweets and Facebook posts urging people to avoid the vaccine

There is zero evidence mask bans are effective against crime or hate. But there's a lot of evidence that shows banning masks will put everyone's health at risk, and increases harassment and targeting of higher risk people and communities of color. Mask bans make cities LESS safe.

Banning masks has nothing to do with preventing crime. Japan has one of the lowest crime rates in the world, and everyone there wears a mask regularly.

Strunk & White advocates for knowing the rules (and tips!) so that you know the expectations and when to break them. That book has its own quirks, pros, and cons, but that bit of advice puts every writing guide out there into the correct perspective.

I'd love to give y'all the play-by-play of the great zingers and the astute policy points but these don't exist. It is literally Biden saying accurate things and Trump saying whatever the fuk he wants.
