Air quality in California right now. We’re fifty miles from the biggest fires and you can taste smoke with every breath. I’m young, healthy, and staying indoors and have a headache like I’m at altitude.

I really wish we had a better vocabulary to talk about fire in California. Fire season is scary, and climate change is making it worse. But even if we mitigate climate change, fire is always going to be with us. It’s a part of the ecology of this place.

@methuseus @Sandforged @scalzi No. Read it now. Or listen to the audio book. You’ll be glad you did.

The thing I'm honestly looking forward to in a @JoeBiden Presidency is the opportunity to go 48 consecutive business hours without noticing the President of the United States.

@mbeisen I can’t link because it’s protected (I didn’t know that’s a thing) but @KateHarding reports everyone I know in a major U.S. city is talking about it!”

The tear gas wasn’t tear gas. The photo op wasn’t a photo op. The protests weren’t peaceful. The death toll is exaggerated. The virus isn’t that bad. The economy doesn’t need any more help.

All they have left is telling us not to believe what we’re seeing with our own eyes.

An otherwise unexceptional piece is raised from the ordinary by this supposed example of the problems with the butterfly keyboard; “the eye would become stud and dole.”

@maosbot The healthiest people I know are 7th day Adventist vegetarians. Whatever they’re eating is the right thing. I don’t imagine you’re running much these days? Do you know your vitamin D status? If you used sun block you might be low, it wouldn’t hurt to supplement. Best of luck.

I don’t think I’ve said this loud enough, so here goes: Every economist I know believes that the single best way to ensure a robust recovery is to beat the bug. There’s no economic health without public health.

@emilygadabout How do organize that work? Is there any way you might offload part if it to an automated process?
