And nothing of value will be lost. 

“anti-vaccine Facebook groups have been influencing members to not seek hospital treatment for covid-19 and even instructed them to pull their sick family members out of ICU”

I know it’s weird to latch on to one thing in this sea of crazy but I genuinely don’t get the fear of tracking. Dude, unless you don’t own a smartphone your minute-by-minute location data is already available for sale, legally, on the open market. Isn’t it a bit late to worry about that?

I’ve already replied to this story, but there’s this other part that I can’t help but comment on:

The language in this article kind of uncritically perpetuates a medical model of autism as something wrong with kids that needs to be fixed - without problematizing that framing.

I remember my first college economics class and this professor who proudly exclaimed if there was no minimum wage laws then people would be paid a lot more.

My wife quit being a preschool teacher because she had all the pressures and extra responsibilities of being a teacher, but was making less than the employees at the local Burger King.

Oh my god it’s distasteful? Are you sure?

It’s odd to say, but I really appreciate his subtlety. The blood and intensive metal-album linework draw your eye, but it’s more impressive the way that he shifts Olaf’s expression from delight to menace by subtly changing the shape of Olaf’s eyes.

Mike Fitz said that he’s long known “that bears were very charismatic creatures”

Customer: My local dealer is jacking me around on the price of this new EV.

“their parents, Heidi and Marc...quit their jobs and moved the family to Los Angeles so that their children might continue their careers...”

If he'd been walking around with a gun he'd have probably been fine.
