I don't know half of you half as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.

Conservative contempt for academia, beyond being indicative of an inability to read above a 3rd grade level, genuinely stems from the growing sentiment that universities should be replaced by glorified trade schools that pump out business, engineering, and comp sci graduates

Seeing Ben and Jen right beside her - not masking - breaks my heart.

They know she’s covid cautious due to having first hand experience with severe post viral illness. They won’t mask for their own child.

“If somebody doesn't help me, I'm going to die," she recalls wailing, watching doctors and nurses pass her by.

"Somebody said to me, 'I don't know what you expect me to do,'" she said. "'You're a healthy 21-year-old young female.'"

This is exactly what happened to me at 24… 🧵

There are 36 mega churches in the state of Alabama, but it was an Native American casino that’s stepped up to pay for all of the tornado victims’ funerals.

Just a reminder that JK Rowling exercised her right to self-ID as a man to sell some mediocre crime novels.

If 2020 me found out that we’d be entering 2025 still battling with Covid but we’re even worse then when we started. I don’t even know how I’d cope.

Part of it is the misinformation that masks don’t work, but honestly the bigger part of it is parents not wanting to look weird and not wanting their kids to look weird.

There are a lot of people who would rather die than feel awkward by being the only person in the room masking

Again: In a densely populated city like Beirut, this kind of bombing is indiscriminate.

Isn't crazy how AI gets introduced and then all of the sudden we don't have trees absorbing CO2 it's probably nothing right

[Hanner @GangstHannah]

Imma need all you leftists who don't believe the government when it comes to Palestine, but believe them when it comes to Covid and H5N1 to wake the fuck up.

They're playing politics with our lives once again, ignoring Covid and H5N1 will get more people killed.

Please stop saying “Covid is Seasonal.” This is the national wastewater data since July 2020. This is the only data you should need to realize saying that is ridiculous. Just. Stop. Spouting. Disinformation.

Most people in the medical field forgot the old saying "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure."

Hear me out:
Maybe the guy who repeatedly jokes about assassinating the vice president shouldn’t have national security clearance and be receiving over $15 billion in government contracts.

Blackstone is now the largest corporate landlord on Earth with over 300,000 homes in the U.S.

Billionaires and corporations have bought millions of homes and either raised rents or left them as empty investments.

There are 16 million vacant houses—28 for every homeless person.
