Just saw someone say their AI runs their fantasy football team and I can’t stop laughing. Like, I’m sure everyone’s doing it or something but it’s very funny to me that pretending to be a team manager was so hard that you needed to pretend to pretend to be a team manager

At @bblitarts.bsky.social International Poetry Film Festival where I’ve just seen the amazing documentary, Elise Paschen: In Her Own Words. Bravo, @nicolepowers.bsky.social. And thank you Elise Paschen. It's beautifully shot; great audience reaction. It was a standing-room-only event. #Poetry

Groups like @cleanairclub.bsky.social & AIR NY (not on Bluesky) help make music, art, & cultural spaces/events COVID safe, sometimes down to figuring out what systems a venue needs. With the right setup, it's possible to make the stage rather safe for singers to unmask for unimpeded audio quality.

Feel so privileged to have met and photographed Rev. Jackson over a period of several days at the 2017 Rainbow PUSH Convention in Chicago. The RP community he built was such a powerful force for good, and it was incredible to see it in acton.

Which are you? You have to accept everything on the list. You can't pick and choose. Every time you get Covid you're passing that on to others and increase the surge. Some of those you infect will get long Covid and some may die.

Which one are you?
Spreader
Uninformed
Ignoring the Science
In Denial
Doesn't wear a respirator mask
Fine getting Covid repeatedly
Fine with cumulative damage
Fine with brain damage
Fine with increased risk of heart attacks, clots, strokes
Fine with chronic illness
Fine with getting long Covid, without a cure or treatment
Fine with being disabled
Fine spreading Covid to loved ones, family, friends, co-workers, babies, elderly Fine being a spreader to others
since 60% of those with Covid don't know they have it.
Choose Wisely, there are only 2 choices
Protector
Informed
Following the Science
Living with Covid
Wears a respirator mask.
Avoids getting infected.
Protect themselves and others.
Keeps their loved ones and family from getting any respiratory illness.
Reduces risk for everyone Is not a vector for disease

"When all students are wearing N95 respirators, the infection risk could be reduced by 96 %..." The solution to prevention has been there all along. Public health and infection control don't like it, so it is ignored.

Masking used to be normalized in high risk healthcare settings like oncology, transplant and NICU. Now patients have to fight for the most basic of precautions. They’re forced to risk covid to receive life saving care. We need mandatory masking in hospitals. Now.

This is outstanding, and hugely important. The culture of impunity in IPAC can literally kill you, because your life is less important than the hurt feelings of some asshat who memorized a bunch of misinformation about aerosols in medical school and hasn't learned anything since.

The library where I worked at the time did not successfully fulfill a single Patriot Act request. Not that this is relevant to the current situation. I assure you this is a random memory that popped into my head with zero prompting.

Unfortunately nobody can remember the password to the system that has those records. So we have to get IT involved, which means running through more detailed security resets to make sure other systems aren’t compromised. It should take a couple weeks.

When the Patriot Act was passed, libraries got requests for patrons’ borrowing history. We were prohibited from disclosing those requests. We deleted and shredded those records and stopped tracking reading history for that reason. ALSO.
