I stopped updating this count last year after this post. It was around this time that my mother, one of the 8 who had developed LC that I knew, experienced sudden worsening of her symptoms and decided to exit this world as a result.

8 now. Just hearing about things from people, not asking.

i feel like not enough people are talking about caroline kennedy saying RFK put small animals in blenders

@MoriartyLab Ah, thank u. Was wondering if maybe something like that.

If I may, it could be helpful to show the most recent couple weeks' rows slightly differently, indicating "preliminary" or something.

I try to keep well versed on the data, and this just looked, well, odd on first glance.

before this performance a music teacher told me it was awful that i had a mask on because she couldn’t see my face and that therefore it undermined the quality of my playing. i told her what’s awful is saying such ableist & cruel things to a music student protecting her health.

Every Democrat, every single one, and every liberal or progressive activist should make sure they refer to him as ‘President Musk’. Trump will not be able to handle it.

As the collective freak out continues, Harris will lose by about 2 points. Trump will get about 50.3% of the vote. Across the Rust Belt swing states Harris would have lost by less than 150K votes it seems.

So... Trump isn't some wizard or genius. It seems 3 factors determined this election.

1) Post pandemic reality where nearly every incumbent party lost.

2) Racism and misogyny that many white colleagues still refuse to acknowledge as a major factor.

3) Right-wing media domination and disinformation.

There’s a massive information gap between COVID conscious people on this site and the general public. They think we’re being alarmist or exaggerating and not understanding that the government is minimizing infectious diseases like COVID and bird flu!

The first thing MAGA will do is dismantle the apparatus necessary for anybody to mount a serious challenge against them again.
There will be an “election” in ‘28, but it will be perfunctory. We are a one-party state now.

This morning my high schooler is very late to school so I went looking for him. I found him worried & visibly fretting. He informed me a large percentage of his school is out with “pneumonia.” Yesterday in class, multiple students were proudly announcing they CURRENTLY have “pneumonia.” My child was absolutely HORRIFIED. He knows we’re a high risk family. He knows our loved one with the rare orphan cancer is coming to visit. He didn’t know how to tell me. He is terrified to go to school as he doesn’t want to bring it home. He remembers early 2020. Anyway there’s no plan, & everyone is treating it like a big joke. Be careful out there.
