I'm just going to leave this here.
For later.

So many bad movies, so little time.

@elhopkins.bsky.social, care to respond?

People of the world, take note:
This is how it's done.

And that chant…
It's not, nor has it ever been "humility in victory, grace in defeat". It's obnoxious at best and fascistic at worst.

That the official Bluesky account should use it — even in support of a cause I adhere to — is incredibly tone deaf.

(Read: typically American. Not a great look)

Barring that... There's always this...

WHAT?! WHY'S EVERYONE LOOKING AT ME LIKE THAT?!
It's just a suggestion.... Just trying to be neighbourly. You know... sports[wo]manship? #Carney #Hockey #USWomen's #CanPoli #DOit #ElbowsUP 🇨🇦

Travis - The Beautiful Occupation (Official Music Video) YouTube video by Travis

Don't just stand there
Watching it happening
I can't stand it
Don't feel it

Something telling me
I don't wanna go out this way
But have a nice day, then...

For the beautiful occupation
The beautiful occupation
You don't need an invitation
To drop in upon a nation

— Travis (2003)

I'm too cynical
I'm just sitting here
I'm just wasting my time
HALF A MILLION
CIVILIANS GONNA DIE TODAY*
But look the wrong way, then…
Read it in the headlines,
Watch it on the TV
Put it in the background
The Beautiful Occupation

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO idea who these people are.

"Los Angeles Lakers superstar Anthony Davis lives by a motto: Whatever makes you different, embrace it. In Davis' case, this translates to owning his captivating, scintillating, one and only unibrow. Over the years, it has become a big part of his identity. Heck, his nickname has become "The Brow" because of it." Source: https://fanbuzz.com/nba/anthony-davis-unibrow/

Not bad
But no one
and I do mean no one
rocks the eyebrow (singular)
like Anthony Davis

LOL.

Depends. I'm following a few accounts that aren't active (yet) in the hopes that they will eventually leave the place(s) that are actively eroding democracy with underhanded algorithmic behavioral manipulation.

Call it naïveté. Or hope. Probably a bit of both.

Whenever celebrities endorse and promote the right thing, I get worried.

Because lately, we've been losing. Like, all the time. Maybe we should start lying more. About everything. All the time. Seems to be working well for the other camp.

So I'm guessing you too must consider Akiko Iwasaki a hack. Even as she is actually trying to advance the field instead of shout down anything that goes against received dogma.

Not deliberately: based on incomplete data. Which you completed for me, updating my understanding of that part of it.

You know if your ego didn't get in the way so much, you might actually manage to get your point across better. You've converted me, at least partially. For which I thank you.

Oy vey. You clearly don't work in a UHC. The spike isn't in labs, it's in emergency departments. Cases that were extremely rare pre-2020 have become alarmingly common.

I agree that we can't explain it immunologically. Doesn't mean it isn't happening. Dogma is not your friend, friend.

I’m sick to death of the bad science too—it’s in 95% of papers I review. But I think we can agree that there hasn’t been an excess of caution re: SARS CoV-2. I see the hyperbole as a response to public health apathy. Something’s up and it doesn’t look good. Veldhoen’s take is this is normal—it’s not

The Telegraph Headline: New Covid virus found in wild Brazilian bats Subhed: The discovery of a ‘furin cleavage site’ suggests the mutation which helps the virus adapt to humans is naturally occurring

Sad day for the folks who staked their reputations on lab leak conspiracy theories.
