Oh no.
What possible creative vision could that be? A bad pan and scan VCR tape of Raiders of the Lost Ark from 1985?
God no.
Many years ago, I traveled to Florida with my girlfriend, who was not a Florida native. We stopped at a Cracker Barrel to get some food. There was a retention pond there.
“Why’d they put an alligator statue in the retention pond?” she asked me.
I said, “That’s not a statue. This is Florida. That’s an alligator just hangin’ out.”
She didn’t believe me. She insisted that alligators wouldn’t just be around; that did not make sense to her. But she believed me when I threw a stick at the creature and it started swimming. “Oh my god, that’s a real live alligator!” she nearly screamed.
Welcome to Florida.
Here’s the problem with all the “green” buildings with no ventilation, even apart from Covid-related concerns:
BTW, above 1000ppm CO2 there is noticeable cognitive impairment. Above 2500ppm, mental decline becomes extremely large. This sort of terrible ventilation is not good and I don’t want any part of any “green” building like this as I kind of need my brain for my job.
How the EU is wasting lives by being unable to buy fast and by freezing AstraZeneca vaccinations for political reasons.
I'm so sick and tired of people killing other people because they want to be 'careful' and can't do math.https://t.co/tW5kewY0Gk

Risk is something most people are just laughably terrible at assessing, and our institutions do no better at all — often worse. People take seem to take horrendous risks in some areas and won’t take the tiniest one in others, based on nothing but propaganda and a “feeling” about something.
Makes just no sense at all.

Thank fuck for Sci-Hub, or I’d be way dumber. And less informed.
I keep seeing pics of outdoor parties in Florida with confident predictions of superspreading/surge. Sure, let’s watch Florida but, here’s an *actual* problem—a real surge in Michigan, now, where older black people remain dramatically undervaccinated. https://t.co/LyFpuUHWAx pic.twitter.com/R5heezaKoC

Aye. Zeynep focuses on the real issues, not the fabricated media ones.
Liberals look at sex like a hostage negotiation, while conservatives see it as taking out the trash, with each other as the trash (especially the woman).
