Bluesky isn't a place where trolls come to get mocked and insulted. They love that. Bluesky is a place where trolls come to be blocked and isolated and ignored — which they hate. If you're seeing a lot of shitty people in your feed, you aren't blocking enough people.

I used to tell the parents of the kids I taught that (a) their kids shouldn't have a computer, TV, or phone in their bedroom and (b) if they claimed they had four hours of homework a night that required them being on their computers, they were lying.

None of my near and dear even mentioned it because like most of the country they don’t know who Kirk was, don’t spend much time online, and think the country has gone over the edge completely.
Louis (@louisevans.bsky.social) reposted reply parent
extremely interesting indicator of where we are in postmodern syncretism that the guys making Kirk out to be a hero of the Christian faith will simply not comment on a Hindu proposing that he is now in the afterlife of Norse Paganism.

So after two straight days of Republicans saying trans people and the Left did this, threatening full on violence, it turns out the suspect is a politically unaffiliated white dude who was trained to use guns by his Republican law enforcement dad? Do I have that right?

NEW: We got access to Jeffrey Epstein’s personal Yahoo inbox — more than 18,000 emails. It shows Epstein’s world in his own words: an unfiltered look at how his operation worked, who enabled it, and how Ghislaine Maxwell stayed at the center of it all.

this is extremely real and I don't think people totally grasp the scope of it yet. June's No Kings had literally 3x as many protests around the country as the single biggest day of protest in Trump 1.0, and penetration into rural and red areas that we never reached back then

I wish there was some way to mute this whole thing, which is entirely (a) the result of having a camera trained on the interaction (b) the rabid urge of everyone in the world to have someone they can blame for feeling sad.

the President, who is not running for election, still sends out fundraising emails on the daily. this guy does ads saying "we've reached the max we can spend, don't give us more money." remarkable stuff that I think resonates with people who yearn for change and justice

Got my flu and COVID vaccines today. You can still get COVID when vaccinated, and you can still infect other people. You're just less likely to die. So if you get sick, wear an N95 mask and stay away from vulnerable people, because you are infectious. But masks won't keep you from getting sick.

Yes. I believe two shots if you are already vaccinated instead of four, though.

Most ERs have rabies vaccine, if you get bit by a possibly rabid animal, and you're not just getting a vaccination. I am currently getting the four rabies post-cat-bite shots along with the immunoglobulin, tetanus shots, and antibiotics. You don't want rabies.

Today is publication day for this beautiful thing. I hope that it will tell a broad audience what historians of science have now long recognized: that alchemy was not a superstitious aberration but rather, an important phase in the history of ideas and of manufacturing.

A pre-dog-walk 🧵 on the pandemic. To me, the lesson of the pandemic is a very familiar one, although as far as I can tell, no one is talking about it or learning it (which is also familiar). It's about the contrast between America's two political parties.

“Can you get a flu and COVID vaccine immediately after finishing the rabies post exposure vaccination?” Answer from pharmacist was no flu because no live vaccines for three months. ACTUAL answer is yes because only FluMist is live.

...and the answer was wrong, it turns out.

Science is a way of asking questions of the universe and getting back answers that are as free of bias as possible. The results have to be falsifiable and reproducible. Is that a good enough understanding of science for you???

I’m going to say this louder this time: if you are lying about having a high-risk condition to get a Covid vaccine, all good, do what you want to do BUT show some actual goddamn respect for people who *actually* have that condition and start masking.

Wrote my senators and my congressperson about the FDA decision about the COVID vaccine. I'm eligible by age and by pre-existing condition, but my child and grandchild are not. The pandemic is not over, just muted because of vaccination. My father died of it last year, and it's still killing people.

They may have been partially at fault (probably the culprit was an employee of a distributor) and they have done a lot of heinous things since then. Recommend the book NO MORE TEARS.

This is in the replies and it demonstrates a real issue which is if you find profundity from an AI, you’re responding to something profound a human being wrote that was vacuumed up and what ends up happening is you thank AI and not only don’t thank the person, you have no idea they were involved

It was all I had in the 1950s and 1960s, and I loved it then, but boy howdy I can't read most of it now. It did not age well. This idea that people have to suffer through canon is a good way to keep people from reading.

Omfg, vaccines (which everyone should get bc they prevent severe disease) are absolutely NOT more effective than respirators at preventing infection. Jesus christ. The anti mask propaganda has spread so far. N95s are among the most powerful tools we have to stop transmission. Wear a mask
