After 4 episodes of #MidnightMass I'd urge you to think of it less like Hill House/Bly Manor and more like Mare of Easttown but with Horror elements. Slow burn but has some really chilling stuff in it.
HOOOOOOOOOOLY SHIIIIIIIIIT
Man, all Flanagan needs is a little breathing room to set stuff up and if you have the patience to sit through it, the rewards are so worth it.
Oh my god
I was not prepared

The antisemitism understander has logged in. Image
They didn't reach out to her on Yom Kippur. Her response is dated September 15, which is the day before Yom Kippur. The complaint is about the day the story ran.
Was it the best decision to run it on Yom Kippur? Meh. But the timing of the email exchange is fine and implying they had some antisemitic motive here adds ad hominem insult to the injury of accusing them of misogyny. She's a flailing mess and her defenders are embarrassing.

I'm just trying to understand why, if identity is the prevailing factor here instead of physicality, can't cis men compete against women too? If trans women have no unfair advantage, why do cis men?
Not everyone who would compete in a much lower weight class in boxing or MMA has an unfair advantage but they still can't do it.
It's on the basis of physicality, not identity, as I said before. If it's only "because they're trans women," then why exclude cis men "because they're cis men"?

I said this last week but something health officials, including Fauci, should have done way more often and should still be doing is answer "I don't know" to any sort of predictive question about when certain things will happen with regards to covid. Because they don't know.
Will we need boosters?
I don't know.
Will there be another wave in X?
I don't know.
When can we expect--
I don't know.
Instead it's always stuff like "I foresee" and "in all likelihood" and "probably," and the hit rate on those predictions would have bankrupted them in Vegas.

Utter horseshit argument. I'm big on vaccines, but comparing this ever-shifting situation to flat Earth is exactly the opposite of what should be happening. I find some people's motives understandable and others infuriating but it is absolutely not a monolith of stupid people.
We haven't even decided how many doses of the stuff we should be getting!
I mean, look at stuff like this. Acting like the literal only reason to not roll your sleeve up instantly is that you're deranged is so fucking disingenuous.

Look, this is a really weird decision that I'm sure has some dumb explanation like "what if he has to go to the registrar's office in person?" But his personally stated reason for not getting vaccinated is basically "meh, don't really feel like it." Just get it, asshole.
It’s amazing how people who spit poison at everyone are suddenly thin skinned when you call someone an asshole because he’s too lazy to get vaccinated and would rather get kicked out of college.
“Way to convince him.”

I focus my efforts on people who are hesitant to get it. This guy even said he’s not concerned about dangers. He just doesn’t wanna. Yuck.

That story about ERs being clogged up by ivermectin ODs is poorly source and very suspect and I'd be careful of it until there was more evidence than "some doctor told us that it was happening at other hospitals."
And scene.
Anyone who does the real type of fact-checking nowadays understands how endemic the problem of rereporting is. Hunting down the original source for a story can be a rabbit hole a dozen links deep. Outlets just report that "other outlets have reported" something. Nobody checks.
