my view is that everyone should be able to earn a living wage doing whatever it is they like. if you love working in a bookshop, you should be able to live a comfortable life doing so. if you loving being a barista, the same. and if you want to do more traditional blue collar work, that’s cool too!

it’s getting harder and harder to tell the difference between who’s kidding and who’s stupid

Your periodic reminder that one way to think about privilege is: who's allowed to make mistakes?

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

Vaccines don’t cause autism. Vaccines aren’t even associated with autism. The biggest predictor of autism? GENETICS. We have decades of data and millions of data points that to show this. This lie insults people with autism too — as if it’s an “adverse effect” of medicine. 1/

It is really hard to watch people willfully tear down an infrastructure that allowed us to double lifespans, drastically reduce poverty, and become one of the richest countries in the world.

If we learned anything from COVID19, and I’m not sure that we have, it’s that once misinformation goes viral, that genie can’t be put back in the bottle no matter how many scientists patiently explain why the information is incorrect. Corrections rarely if ever go viral themselves.

Again. You’re in a class war. It’s the wealth class and everyone else. Stop expecting politicians or the media or institutions, all of which are owned by or beholden to the wealth class, to fight the fight for you.
