Smart ppl see all that's there Very smart ppl also see what’s NOT there Complete lunatics see stuff that isn’t there too. The trick is knowing the difference

Folks, a plea: However many days you are TOLD to isolate after you catch COVID, how ever many days you CHOOSE to isolate, please consider isolating until you have a negative RAT. If you do that, you will reduce the chance of infecting your friends, family and others by about 90%

@SalamonSMD I’ll worry about that when one of them manipulates an election then becomes co-president of a stable of medieval lunatics. But really, it’s just because this place has been so infested by bots, trolls and people who may be physically real but long ago lost touch with reality

I’m outa here, to a place not run by the kid who pulled the wings of flies at school, got a lotta $$ accidentally and used it to buy the US govt. He did it by micro targeting using the information we all gave him. It was not even original. This is from a Chris Shevlin novel

@YouAreLobbyLud There are 2 dentists in my town. #1 is a product of establishment “big dentistry”. #2 was unfairly kicked out of dental school, persecuted for his quest to return dentistry to its natural roots in the Middle Ages and use aromatherapy anaesthetics. Which one should I choose ?

A reminder to "contrarian" docs who sanewash @RobertKennedyJr's antivax looniness. If he takes control of federal health policy under a second Trump administration, you will have been responsible for destroying the US public health apparatus. sciencebasedmedicine.org/rfk-jr-is-now-…

@KarenCutter4 Yes. We will see the next iteration of this on Monday. 2024 winter case load was larger than the 2023 - so will the summer one be bigger too ? That would be in excess of 30,000 infections/week. @amnewtonPhD

@YouAreLobbyLud The poison will reach here (as to the “shire”.). There are locals who will see this example and ape it but we have some stronger fundamentals in our favour. Australia was colonised by criminals whose leaders became free men, the US by free men whose leaders became criminals

@YouAreLobbyLud In the end, that’s all that matters. All of us must grieve, for a while, to see lies, bad faith, corruption, ignorance, fear (and its spawn hate) not only go unpunished but rewarded. But we remain who we are.

It's funny in a way that the US has always been considered the world's leading democracy. For example they still hold elections on a working day. Many need to have time off, to vote.

@RageSheen @DLRogKingston The imbecile won’t be in charge. He’s just the circus clown, there to provide distraction while the oligarchy is fully established. He’s easily manipulated not just by foreign autocrats but by those around him.

After the disgraceful hate rally that just took place in New York, ⁦@nationalpost⁩ still endorses Donald Trump as US president. I had hoped that at this point all Canadian journalists would take a morally defensible stand. I am sorry to be proven wrong.

@anchinya @Flinty_01 @abcnews Specifically, CBD owners, or rather their landlord real estate moguls. With people staying close to home, local coffee shoos switched to take out and did very well. To do our bit, we bought vouchers for those near our Eastern State family members. For a while, villages returned.

@Flinty_01 @abcnews Yes, and the hard work done by Victorians helped keep the whole country Covid free until the adult vax program was complete. This WA resident is grateful.

English

John Flint@Flinty_01·31 Eki

@abcnews The findings fail to acknowledge the differences between States, both in terms of experiences and policies. For example in WA, kids lost just 3 weeks of schooling in 3 years. For more than 2 years, the State was COVID-free. Not sure how that was a failure.

We *also* have a PM model update out for you. Lots of high-quality polling this afternoon. Lots you can cherry-pick but on balance, the model thought it was a hair better for Harris than Trump relative to its expectations. Race remains a true toss-up. natesilver.net/p/nate-silver-…

@JaneCaro Two reasons IMO: 1. It’s not about Trump, so nothing he does matters. It’s visceral reaction to a rapidly changing and confusing world 2. Billionaire oligarchs, wanting a feudal society, now own all the traditional and social media. Large numbers of folk detached from reality

This lady is though and you can hear her thinking about the divisiveness Trump has exploited and the remedy for it. Won’t you feel good when you don’t have to hate ppl you disagree with ?

Bash: This speech was exactly what the Harris campaign hoped for. It was the contrast that they’ve been trying to make. She reminded people why they don’t like Trump and talked about what she wants to do to help people
