1) What is it with the right demanding apologies all the time whenever people happen to be wrong. It's... not exactly a habit I see the right being into. (Like... have I missed the apologies for "People will stop caring about Covid after the election"?)
2) There is a lot to criticize about his pandemic response, but "he's a cretin" is not really a criticism of his pandemic response, nor is complimenting his pandemic response saying that he is not a cretin.
"Did you hear Joe got fired for sexual harassment?"

"Wow. You complimented him on his TPS reports. I can't believe you were running interference for a sexual harasser what the hell is wrong with you?"
3) This was creepy even before now. That I will grant.

For those of you having difficulty understand why people don't trust the vaccine, let me shed some light on the matter. A thread:

Imagine you're a normal person, and you come back from your men's rights group meeting and you log on to a gaming review website and 1/
In ADDITION to denying the efficacy of the miracle drug ivermectin, the so-called medical experts do nothing but take a dump on the Alex Jones concoction you've been taking that have been helping you bulk up.

Yet we're supposed to believe them when 34/
The same media reporting on the vaccine is the one that lets you sign up for their paper online but to cancel you have to CALL AND TALK TO SOMEBODY.

How is that trustworthy?! 71/

As is often the case, caught between two sides on the masking thing with some folks arguing that it's a minor inconvenience any complaints about which are posturing and whining, and a lot of people who are in fact posturing and whining.
Mask-wearing genuinely hits different people differently. That you don't mind, or your child doesn't mind (or there are no apparent adverse effects) is great. Not universally applicable.

And for heaven's sake, masks really are not an avatar for personal liberty.
For my part, I don't mind wearing masks. I don't have to wear them all day, however, so I don't know if that might change my perspective. My wife does wear them all day and doesn't mind them at all.

People aren't good with "This is effective but not 100% effective" calculations but attempts by health people to compensate ("Since this is not 100% effective we need to stress how not effective it is so they know it's not 100% effective") just makes matters worse.
If it is the case that the vaccine is ineffective against spread and we have to wear masks to prevent spread, people talking about "But the messaging!" need to let it go. But...
if it's actually mostly about unverifiability and trust of who is vaccinated and who isn't, and conditional enforcement based on unknown status isn't feasible then just talk about that (perhaps using more simple words).

We're getting some really good comments on my schools post. From @OG_Jaybird and @Robot_Bastard here: ordinary-times.com/2020/08/20/eve…
Kazzy, on moving goalposts ordinary-times.com/2020/08/20/eve…
Phillip H explains well why I am so concerned about grade school in particular. I may be biased because my kid is in that group, but I do think if she weren't I'd be less insistent on doing everything possible to get her into a classroom. I think. ordinary-times.com/2020/08/20/eve…
