Nobody seems to want to point it out, but for me the big education story of the 2022-23 year so far is that schools have reopened, kids are in class, and the sky has not yet fallen. pic.twitter.com/Uzu0tl2sYl

They have all died 372 times, as predicted by the Covidians. Someone just keeps resurrecting them with arcane eldritch technologies.
In the UK all covid restrictions have been gone for over a year, and the case numbers are far below more careful countries in Europe like Germany. The only post-covid recovery issues we are seeing now are because of lack of personnel (fired during the pandemic) and inflation.

Shhh, you’re disrupting the Covidian narrative now. It’s hurting them.
If anyone – ANY news organization believes this is “breaking news,” they ought to be ashamed of themselves. This has been US policy for decades. https://t.co/AS5Ezu1wj1

Indeed it has.
" reinforces the idea that boys are inherently bigger, faster, and stronger than girls in a competitive setting" isn't worth arguing with. it's ridiculous. and now it's in the atlantic

Yep. This is why allowing bio men to compete in women’s sports is extremely harmful and unfair. And I hate anyone who is for this with a burning passion.

Aye. It’s endemic, no matter what the “experts” say (who should read their own fucking textbooks). I know the Covidians hate it because we won’t all cower inside until the heat death of the universe, but the facts be what they be.

To Ian Welsh, that’s what Russian “winning” looks like. Which is maybe why he’s such a whiny fucking loser.
Bitcoin and cryptocurrency in general is not a store of value, but rather is one of the largest stores of human stupidity ever created.
anyway it’s silly we’re compelled to defend the humanities when there are so many actually unjustifiable things happening in the world. next we’ll be compelled to defend learning to read at all

Have you seen the Covidians? Many of them were arguing (and still are, I presume) that kids didn’t really need to learn to read. If working in the fields, completely illiterate, was good enough for their great-great-grandparents, by gum, it was certainly good enough for little Harper and Kinsley.
I wonder if that Covidian crap will turn into an actual coherent religious movement? Not likely but possible I guess.

I learned about the Holocaust when I was 6-7 years old. Something about it in a National Geographic magazine I read.
If a tweet I write ever goes viral I hope it’s this one because I’m trying to sound the alarm here.
There are currently NO PEDIATRIC ICU BEDS available in my state. Remember how the CDC warned about rhinovirus in the northeast? They weren’t wrong.

Huh. According to the Covidians, Covid is the only dangerous extant virus and we shouldn’t be worrying about anything else. That was wrong? WHO KNEW?
FYI for my women friends: you can get Plan B at Costco for $5.99 with no membership. That’s by far the cheapest anywhere. (It’s usually $35 and up.)
I think if the wannabe Civil War types ever do truly start some shit, they will be very surprised to find that on the liberal side (as much as I am on any side) there are people like me who can and will snipe them with a headshot from 500 meters. All day long.
We aren’t all squishy snowflakes.
Today a friend (a biologist) told me that she intends to wear masks indoors and avoid indoor socialization for the rest of her life, in order to avoid Long Covid.

She sounds like a total clown.
♫♫ One of these things is not like the others…one of these things is not the same.♫♫
Damn the Covidians are c-c-crazy. Just totally pants-on-head insane. If someone cannot understand the difference between walking around with your ass hanging out and your face uncovered, what do you even say to them? There is just no common basis of reality there at all.
The Ian Welsh nutty buddy types still insist Russia is handily winning in Ukraine, or that it could if it really wanted to. You know, because countries invade to lose wars and destroy their armed forces. Totally makes sense. Like, for real, dude.
And what’s weird is that they’ll insist Russia won that war if and when they retreat, tail between their legs, with only minimal or no territorial gain and a military busted all to hell.
I hope I never think so poorly. Please trout-slap the everliving fuck out of me if I do.
When I think of the people cooped up inside for the last few years, doing nothing, cowering vaccinated from a low-risk disease and the faint threat of Long Covid, I am so motherfucking glad I’ve gone on all the trips I have, seen all the people I’ve visited, done all the great things I’ve done.
Living in fear isn’t even living.
