Frustrated about and tired of being a go-between, I suggested my wife message my mother directly. I now realise this was a terrible mistake. A truly horrific mistake.

Because it's buried at the bottom of the article and CNN is presenting it in a misleading way: before people worry, the "unknown" part is how the worker was exposed, the pathogen is good old fashioned Y. pestis which we understand extremely well and can treat just fine if caught early

This is the mechanism of collapse, as communities’ ability to recover is overwhelmed by more frequent disasters. “In many places, recovery is no longer a destination. It has become an ongoing and seemingly unending process.” The fraying of community ties is the most significant damage.

Everything that Trump is doing now is only possible because of the infrastructure created with the help of Biden and the Dems. They voted for the Patriot Act and to create DHS and ICE. Obama built the concentration camps and legalized indefinite detention. All of this has been decades in the making.

I dreamed that I was a rose That grew beside a lonely way, Close by a path none ever chose, And there I lingered day by day ... ~ James Weldon Johnson (1871–1938), “The Awakening”.
Image containing a poem, with a bouquet of bright yellow and orange flowers in the lower left-hand corner. The poem, “The Awakening” by James Weldon Johnson (1871–1938), reads:

I dreamed that I was a rose
That grew beside a lonely way,
Close by a path none ever chose,
And there I lingered day by day.
Beneath the sunshine and the show’r
I grew and waited there apart,
Gathering perfume hour by hour,
And storing it within my heart,
        Yet, never knew,
Just why I waited there and grew.
  
I dreamed that you were a bee
That one day gaily flew along,
You came across the hedge to me,
And sang a soft, love-burdened song.
You brushed my petals with a kiss,
I woke to gladness with a start,
And yielded up to you in bliss
The treasured fragrance of my heart;
        And then I knew
That I had waited there for you.

The core operational beliefs of any billionaire system were and are that: 1) wealth should come to the wealthy as much as possible and by any means, and 2) any wealth going anywhere else represents a violation demanding immediate redress, and therefore: 3) any attempt to stop this robbery, no matter how virtuous, is theft demanding punishment, and also: 4) any attempt to stop the punishment, no matter how peaceful, is actually violence demanding murder.
