First vaccine to fully immunize against malaria builds on pandemic-driven RNA tech.
How much of the so-called Great Stagnation was due to predatorial neoliberalism and disinventives to real research and investment is becoming very, very clear.

Where you been at? That’s already started. Have you seen what’s been happening to sex workers with SESTA/FOSTA, Tumblr, PornHub, and other places for years?
Those were the initial feints to see how successful they could be — and it turns out, very! So the next phase is starting now. I expect much less accurate and verifiable info to be available online in a decade, and for it to become much harder to get anything other than the official narrative. All, strangely, cheered on every step of the way by so-called liberals.
It is only a matter of time before we turn on the unvaccinated.
Good. In some instances, ostracism and shaming works. This is one of those instances.
One pronounces
12^2 “twelve squared” and
12^3 “twelve cubed” but
12^4 as “twelve to the fourth”.
The powers 2 and 3 are not cited as numbers but as geometric figures, for obvious reasons, but still, one doesn’t realize that one is not pronouncing the number itself.1/2 …

And a very bad one, like a Dane Cook joke but worse, somehow.
One of the strangest fixations of AWFL metaphysics is on a substance called 'trauma' that they believe is 'stored in the body' in small saclike organs where it constantly threatens to be 'triggered' and erupt out of its ducts. They assert life itself is about 'processing trauma'

Yeah, that is weird. Fuck my trauma. I just deal and if I can’t, I just get more awesome.
Facebook doesn’t seem to mind that facial recognition glasses would endanger women.
Endanger women…and everyone. But no, Facebook doesn’t give a fuck about women, about this nation, any nation, anybody, anything, anyone, anywhere.
It can’t. It’s a fucking corporation, and a monopoly one at that. It’s a de facto sociopath, to put it in human terms. And it should be utterly destroyed, its execs prosecuted and all their wealth seized.
Amazing how much we’ve even fucked up the good.
Instead of balanced optimism since the launch of the vaccines, the public has been offered a lot of misguided fretting over new virus variants, subjected to misleading debates about the inferiority of certain vaccines, and presented with long lists of things vaccinated people still cannot do, while media outlets wonder whether the pandemic will ever end.
We need to invent new names for how hard liberals (mostly) fail at this. The word “failure” just isn’t encompassing or expressive enough.
One year after the WHO declared COVID-19 a potential pandemic, I am hearing far too many reports starting with “if we knew then what we know now.”
We did. https://t.co/eW3AI7VgFK

The “Who could have KNOWNNNNNN?” bullshit was always going to happen. It was completely inevitable. But we knew. Read my blog from a year ago. We fucking knew; we just failed.
