@JeromeAdamsMD@DouthatNYT With COVID, travel restrictions were too late, lying to the public about masks destroyed trust. Imagine if they had said, "N95 masks are effective, but we don't have enough. Here are interim mitigation activities you can take until there are enough."
@briebriejoy Tucker and MTG talk endlessly about 1) high cost of living 2) low wages, 3) environmental degradation, 4) the killing of innocents in Gaza, the West Bank, and Lebanon, 5) ending endless foreign wars, 6) the cost of insurance and health care, 7) corruption.
Where do we disagree?
@esaagar If the schools push 1 device per child, parents have no ability to push an analog childhood. As a parent, I see a big difference in the intellectual achievement of kids with limited screens versus lots of screens.
@JeromeAdamsMD Clean Air is the most under-rated health measure in America. I blame the commercial real estate industry. Buy air filters for my kids' classrooms.
@esaagar It's not just the phones. It is the school devices that I have no control over. iPads, Chromebooks, Laptops. I hate hate hate them. I had to battle the preschoos (high end) where teachers would show kids videos (wtf). We also did no tv/movies until age 5 (end of naps)
@RepThomasMassie@RepMGP This would have saved the farm my family had farmed since before the Revolutionary War. It is now an industrial park :( But no one could afford to pay taxes or restore the house (thanks historical society) since it was zoned industrial. I keep a jar of the dirt.
-You are only considered an “investor” if you own over 350 homes
-Corporate entities can simply create a new subsidiary to bypass the 350 limit
Friendly reminder that the government thinks you’re stupid
Which is closest to your nuanced position on traditional news, journalism, and reporting:
I. I mostly believe & trust the news.
II. I have agreed to trust the news.
III. I publicly pretend the news is real.
IV. News is now just too perposterous.
@matthewstoller I used 3 different AI to compile a list of IPs out of a JSON file (basic parsing) based on a single attribute in each object. They all had different lists, and they were all incomplete. What a waste of time. It was more effective to read and copy paste myself. It was 108 IPs
@calleymeans Locavore chefs in each state ... I think the current largest impediments are the Corporate COnsolidation. The sodexo provides disgusting, unhealthy slop to our local schools. My kid is happy to eat meat, salad, and tea for lunch, but would rather starve than eat school lunch.
