I feel like if I were a school that had had multiple Covid outbreaks I might want more than half of my IAQ sensors online but hey you do you

@shawphd If I’m not mistaken, the date on that the issue is July 1995. (I mean, bisexuality wasn’t new then either, but it’s a little better than if this were what Newsweek was hawking now.)

ICYMI, walk-in PCR testing at Anna Cole ends today. AFAIK, no replacement site has been announced. A lot of the BPS community relied on this place. Thank you, Anna Cole Testing Ppl, for being there for our family & others. Giant double birdie flip to whomever made this decision.

What in the holy tone-deaf ableist fxck is this shit??

[Governor Kathy Hochul @GovKathyHochul]

Starting today, masks will be optional in some places where they had previously been required, including on mass transit.

@AkieaG Read a thing once that said “some ppl give away money & think it still belongs to them.” The spot-on accuracy of that phrasing stopped me in my tracks.

@happy2bmad I can bring over a handful of legos and a folded piece of cardstock if it would help lmk

[BPS Rogue One @BPSRogueOne]

Cheers to the operative who sent this to me literally as my kid was declaring how stupid it is that they still need to wear a mask.

[BPS Rogue One @BPSRogueOne]

Miss me?

@ArielleGoldman TBH it would be legitimately difficult to install mini-splits in 120 y.o. brick buildings and 60 y.o. ones made of solid concrete, but I'm intrigued by what "getting ventilation done" means here. Last I heard it was window open 2", a dorm room air purifier & a prayer.

QotD: What organizations are doing real work around gun violence *and* can accept donations of stock/securities? Want to point some people in the right direction. TIA.

This is the thread you should be reading right now. Yet again, @TracyNovick being the hero we need.

(I can’t believe BESE made me come out of retirement just to reference a next-level TERF.)

@RyanJBlack @rweingarten @drlucymcbride Presumably they couldn’t find an economist.

[BPS Rogue One @BPSRogueOne]

@CindyERodriguez Done. Now what?

[BPS Rogue One @BPSRogueOne]

SUPER-fucking psyched to learn that me & my permanently reduced lung capacity can wear an N95 respirator all day every day so that normal people can normal.

[Leana Wen, M.D. @DrLeanaWen]

A reminder that "ending mask mandate" does not mean "no one can wear masks". A high-quality mask (N95, KN95, KF94) is highly effective and protects the wearer, even if others are no longer masking.

[BPS Rogue One @BPSRogueOne]

@shawphd Cafeterias don’t have sensors, the classroom sensors have no alerts, and many of the units still aren’t calibrated despite being installed last September. Both of our cities need real-time CO2 monitoring like Boston is pretending to have.

[BPS Rogue One @BPSRogueOne]

@shawphd @MagisterBracey How weird do you sound when you talk? (I'm trying to places odds of "terrifying my autistic child" vs "having my autistic child think my robot voice is funniest thing they've ever heard.")

[BPS Rogue One @BPSRogueOne]

@MsWaterMallon BPS often sends email updates to parents/families before they're sent to teachers. I have legit asked my kids' teachers about things that they had not yet been notified about.
