Our friends @okgo are being sued by @postcereals for having their name before Post did. This is wrong. If you agree, please spread the word. Thank you- John F. TMBG

@HirokoTabuchi ?? A work-a-tian makes more sense

[K. Lance Kelly @KLanceKelly]

@thepacketrat Agree. And since the adjective is not the “current us-politics” flavor of dystopian, even more worrying

Of about 2,600 people hospitalized in Japan between March and June, 7.5% have died, compared with 28% in China, 26% in Britain, and 21 to 24% in U.S. state of New York, according to National Center for Global Health and Medicine. https://t.co/NI2h0n28iZ

So puzzled that schools can't regulate if students wear a mask but can measure shirt hems, adjudicate whether a top is sleeveless, and judge what is acceptable hair color.

[Jennifer Radcliffe @jenradcliffe]

So Texas' reopening plan for schools is pretty much try to sneeze into your elbow and maybe open a window if you can: https://t.co/bFyZ106nqv

An epidemiologist, an ICU doctor and a scientist all walk into a bar.

I’m just kidding, they know better.

Do not listen. This is shit advice.
I have nothing to do with this.
In the wise words of my wife. “What has changed?”
Nothing.
There is no cure, there is no vaccine.
Go out at your peril. Mingle at your own risk.
Just remember
“Bring out your dead.”
Be safe
Eric

Fortunate to have a team that indulges me to goof off in the editing suite every now and then! Much needed outlet these days

What does a mask do? Blocks respiratory droplets coming from your mouth and throat.

Two simple demos:

First, I sneezed, sang, talked & coughed toward an agar culture plate with or without a mask. Bacteria colonies show where droplets landed. A mask blocks virtually all of them.

Yesterday the US hit a record high for new COVID cases.

WEAR A MASK.

This does need to be seen and heard

@HirokoTabuchi as a former (privileged) Tokyo expat, I’m sure Japanese natives in Japan would be exactly the same as whites in US (if, somehow, gaijin protests happened). It’s a disaffected majority problem. Not to excuse my obvious privilege! Your thread is so powerful, thanks.
