I hope children survive long enough to do a class action against all the adults who forced them into unsafe environments that gave them chronic illness from an infectious biohazard

TikTok is very women centric now with so many content creators and followers who are women, it’s different to the #metoo Twitter mvmt as people share very detailed stories, comments are more personal spaces

[EMC @EmMcCC]

The enormous Sean Combs case has sparked a second #metoo mvmt over on TikTok of alleged crimes perpetrated by him & his associates & others in industries: music, entertainment, hospitality, a chain reaction like a tidal wave building

One woman has started a website for people to submit their stories and is gathering evidence & providing healing space like a one woman army, I’ve never seen anything quite like this before

This is why I decline to attend most funerals. They’re good for the funeral business and not much else.

[Nico Reznick 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🇪🇺🌍 @NicoReznick]

Skipped a family funeral because of the lack of COVID mitigations.

3 attendees confirmed positive so far. Out of 14 total. Not sure the others are even testing.

Guess my relatives must really like funerals.

The scale of the Sean Combs case is mind blowing. 120 more lawsuits and 3000 people have come forward. 3000! It’s just so incredible and horrific in scale, I can’t even comprehend it

It’s like, ‘I was in a car accident and am traumatised so I can’t wear a seat belt’
Makes no sense and is the opposite of learning from experience

[Malgorzata (Gosia) Gasperowicz @GosiaGasperoPhD]

Let’s assume that such traumatic response is real &not just an excuse for “oh, wearing a 😷is sooo much work 🙄”
Then it’s really problematic that “we”manufactured a traumatic response to a *protective device* against the root cause of the trauma.
It’s like …

People keep saying "post-pandemic" when they really mean "post-public health".

@KCMartinStone Yes I was very lucky to see it, went with an artist friend who is Papua New Guinean. We were overwhelmed. She has since been making important work from it and Melb Museum Coll

If you're old-fashioned, the tragedy of the past 4 years is millions dead from avoidable infections.

For everybody else, it's having to delay recreational travel. All fixed now.

Essential viewing for everyone who still thinks that Australia overreacted in the first year of the COVID pandemic. What Australia did in that year saved literally many thousands of lives.

[EMC @EmMcCC]

And worse, to actively campaign against it.

Imagine what a miserable person you’d have to be to be against clean air during an ongoing airborne pandemic

[Noha Aboelata, MD @NohaAboelataMD]

Employers who think that upgrading ventilation "costs too much" should really do the math on repeated workplace outbreaks.

Be pretty ironic if anti-public health proponent Tina Arena sang everyone Covid at the mass sporting event tomorrow
