Hey motherfuckers, just found out my kid had post-viral myocarditis from COVID in 2022! Discovered because of constant fatigue and dizziness when standing. They now use a cane. COVID is surging again so do the damn things! I know they suck but not as much as giving someone else a heart condition.

In case anyone needs a reminder on the things to do to prevent COVID: -wear a mask in public, even outdoors (preferably a KN95, N95, or other respirator) -improve ventilation + air quality -stay home + rest as much as possible when sick -test for COVID, but beware false negatives -general hygiene

But asserting that control over what you can control? It improves your environment. It gets you moving and not stuck in the catastrophe mud. It’s a distraction. And when it’s done, it’s an accomplishment, and those are all powerful means of improving your local emotional weather. ~end

Asserting control over what you can control (note I said what, not who) is self-care. Does it fix the big problem? Probably not, but the big problem is likely something you cannot control anyway. Catastrophizing is the maladaptive version of asserting control, because it’s wheel spinning. 2/3

Seriously, if you’re feeling out of control (and this does require being able to sit with yourself and interrogate your feelings, so you may not realize you feel out of control until you do it), go do something you can control. There’s a reason that cleaning as displacement is a trope. 1/3

TIL that Japan was obsessed w raccoons (a non-native species) bc of a cartoon about a boy in Wisconsin who raises one as a pet until he realizes they are bad pets and releases his friend into the wild. So, having learned ZERO LESSONS from this, Japan imported a shitton of raccoons as pets.

Every so often, the idea of Guaranteed Basic Income comes up as a political topic in Canada. In the 1970s, Manitoba conducted the Manitoba Basic Annual Income Experiment to see the social impact of a guaranteed income. This is the story of Mincome 👇💵 🧵1/8

Results from the Mincome experiment seemed to show a range of health and social benefits in Dauphin. By 1976, 100% of Dauphin students enrolled in their final year of school. Others in the community used the money to start businesses for themselves. 🧵7/8

Working hours dropped for men and women, just slightly, to provide more family time. Domestic violence rates fell by 30%. Hospital visits declined by 8.5% with fewer work-related injuries. The period of Mincome also saw a reduction in rates of psychiatric hospitalization. 🧵6/8

The Mincome project was funded jointly by Manitoba's NDP government under Edward Schreyer and the federal Liberal government of Pierre Trudeau. It officially launched via a news release on Feb. 22, 1974. The test areas were primarily Winnipeg and Dauphin. 🧵2/8

Didn't get a clear answer until right at the end of the press conference. Undoubtedly they will play with it some more. Turn it off and on, etc. From what I could get, having a "sparker" (the APU) that can re-ignite a navigational rocket engine up there, is a big deal. Worked at first, then ???

So... watching the archived press conference later. They are VERY AVOIDING that the 2 TON THING IS STILL UP THERE.. No big deal, but the mini burning spinning motor didn't light the second time, (APU?), so the upper stage main nav motor can't light to de-orbit it. Up there like usual space junk.

You can see this up in Alberta Canada, where a right-wing fringe cult took control of the province (think state gov.) and banned everything new that was not oil, gas or coal.

So the more I see of this, the more I respect it. The Cybertruck is so unrelentingly and singularly absurd that the only sane aesthetic response is to heap yet more absurdity on top. This exudes a level of "you're locked in here with me" energy that you don't often get the opportunity to witness.

WTF. The electric company in Texas doesn't have a map of outages so people have been using the Whataburger App to figure out who lost power. This is like when Homer was using the Krusty Burger map when they got lost at sea.
