Avoiding vaccination now relies on one of three perspectives:

1. People making graphs like these are just liars.

2. A vaccine that 85% of American adults have taken has some dangerous side effect that has somehow been not noticed or covered up.

3. “I don’t wanna.”

This one goes out to all the besties who are last to the beach and first to leave (so that sunburn is minimized and you don’t have to carry the tent)

Me doing an errand alone: “Ugh! I hate this! It is too much!”

Me doing an errand with a friend: “Ooo! What a fun little adventure!”

Hey Twitter! A friend of mine’s friend experienced some overtly racism in Cleveland, OH at Presti’s Bakery in Little Italy.

I can’t believe it’s 2021 and places like Little Italy are still able to operate as a racist community without any backlash.

Ed Gainey speaks after winning the Democratic endorsement for Mayor of the city of Pittsburgh @TribLIVE

[Ryan Deto @RyanDeto]

NEW: Pittsburgh Mayor Bill Peduto has conceded to Ed Gainey.

PA state rep Ed Gainey will almost certainly become the first Black mayor in Pittsburgh history. Truly historic in a city with only 25% Black residents. https://t.co/4DDtpQTeE7

[Ed Gainey @EGaineyOfficial]

Happy Election Day from Ed and Michelle! Let’s make history and elect the Gaineys our next First Family of Pittsburgh!

@jwmtalley Oh-I agree with you those resources would be a lot more useful concentrated to lower tax brackets. Just the rationale I’ve seen as to why they placed the cut off there

[Bridget Trimble @b_trim]

@jwmtalley I think it’s because it’s based on 2019 taxes- so those 75K earners could have lost their job through the pandemic as well. But I don’t disagree- job loss has hit minimum wage/tipped earners much harder than any other group

So this is probably going to get me yelled at, but I want to talk a little about a sci com issue around the J&J vaccine and how well it works.

The official take in sci com and public health seems to be that it's just as good as Pfizer and Moderna ... which is correct, sorta ...

[Ed Gainey @EGaineyOfficial]

We know that Pittsburgh is NOT a most livable city for everyone, and we won’t pretend that it is.

We need action, not avoidance.

Pittsburgh needs a mayor who will stand up and fight for those who have been left behind.

No, wind farms are not the main cause of the Texas blackouts.

The widespread electricity failure in the state was largely caused by freezing natural gas pipelines, which are responsible for the majority of the power supply in Texas. https://t.co/o43hUg7CR5

Ppl think living in Pittsburgh is all about fries on sandwich and loving the Steelers but it is actually fries on salad and hating the mayor
