I’m still having trouble understanding why so many so-called liberals are interested in destroying society and harming kids basically in perpetuity to protect anti-vaxxers. I can’t make sense of this no matter how hard I try. Just cannot.

Love Lifting
this is one of the best feelings in the world
she has not merely lifted a weight off the ground
she has broken through to a new plane of existence
her reaction is *triumph*, over adversity, over limiting beliefs, over homeostasis
you can do it too, I believe in you 💪🏾🔥 https://t.co/EjLzik4rrH

Damn. That’s a 507 pound lift. That’s massive. I’ve never lifted that much in the deadlift in my life.
Good for her.
Strict Is Done
I’m mostly going to stop posting about Covid restrictions (or lack of them) and the absurd debate over same. The lockdown lifers lost and I’m happy about that. Society was not destroyed despite their best attempts and we are all better off for their defeat.
The anti-vaxxers — not lack of restrictions nor even lack of masking — are what have caused most of the hospital overload after vaccinations were widely rolled out, and no amount of restrictions would’ve prevented that (as anti-vaxxers wouldn’t have followed them anyway).
I have a huge problem supporting restrictions to mostly protect anti-vaxxers, anyway. They made their choice.
WFU
I just noticed that Twitter's crap algorithms note you blocking people (or maybe browsing over to the account to block) as "engagement", so after you block, it offers those exact accounts in the "Who to Follow" panel, even showing that you blocked them.
Oh twitter, you're so bad

Everything in the computing/tech world has gotten so, so much worse in the last decade. We’re “inventing” stuff that had already existed forever, except now it’s far inferior, all the while gaslighting people into believing (and to propagandize to others) that they shouldn’t have control of anything. And we’re attempting to make dating into some horror show of algorithmic choice only.
We really fucked up; let’s go back.
End Pand
Good. Omicron is the effective end of the pandemic, unless some biohacker gets squirelly or we have another Wuhan-like incident.
Corp Spons
This is how much meat and dairy hurt the climate.
Ah, great, more corporate-sponsored propaganda to make my life worse. Just what I love reading.
I’d honestly rather die than give up eating meat, because if I do that I’d feel like I’m dead anyway. Hope I don’t end up having to raise my own chickens and rabbits because of these fucking clowns.
FAcel
The incel movement and the fat acceptance nutters have much in common. Both groups focus on self-harm and hurting others as a way to avoid improving their own lot. The incels are probably worse but there are fewer of them. Meanwhile, FA nonsense has infested the culture and harmed millions and millions.
This is not the timeline I signed up for.
No Viol
Anything that doesn’t violate the laws of physics is not impossible; it’s just logistics.
Just T
I betcha more than half of those manly men spouting anti-vax talking points are just terrified of needles.
That’s responsible for more anti-vax sentiment than any other single factor I’d guess.
