CDC Recommends All Americans Keep Audio Logs During Pandemic for Future Protagonists to Stumble Upon thehardtimes.net/harddrive/cdc-…

I've said it before, but people should be mindful that coronavirus statistics are lagging indicators. In Wuhan, a typical case showed up in the data ~2 weeks after the person initially became symptomatic. The lag could be longer in counties without good testing (e.g. the USA).

This has two obvious implications: 1) When cases are on the upswing, as they obviously are in the US right now, things are almost certainly MUCH worse than they appear from the official data. But also: 2) Once things start to turn around, it will be ~2 weeks before we know it.

Breaking news: Congressman Massie has tested positive for being an asshole. He must be quarantined to prevent the spread of his massive stupidity. He's given new meaning to the term #Masshole. (Finally, something the president and I can agree on!)

I can't believe all these corporations are going bankrupt after one simple unforeseen medical emergency. Horrible planning on their part. Shouldn't have ordered all those avocado toasts I guess

Instead of tweeting about RBG "entering the pearly gates" or some other treacly vision of the afterlife she did not believe, you can ask the closest Jewish person about our mourning traditions. They are focused on acts of service to the living, not canonizing the dead.

1. It's been 240 days since I tweeted this thread below...I'm even angrier It's no secret that so many people are in deep financial trouble, but so many people who have the means to help don't know what to do. Before you shut down for the week please read along this new thread

New York Post @dean_balsamini and Susan Edelman -- honest question: what is the journalistic value here? How does this pertain to helping public? I really want to know. What's the argument for publishing this?

Nothing wrong with retweeting this website that used open source software to detect, extract, and deduplicate every face from the 827 videos taken from the insurrection on January 6. facesoftheriot.com
