This is my point. You do not, cannot know when someone is infected or not, so the logical conclusion would be to wear a mask in any setting that you do not have full control of through testings, ventilation, etc. You cannot know. Let that sink in. You have to wear a mask. :)

we recently saw an insane discovery in biology, which if true, in my opinion, makes extraterrestrial life far far more likely. 🧵
You have to be richer than almost everyone in the country to ever pay inheritance tax. Even if you own a farm. And if you do own a farm, and are rich enough to pay inheritance tax on it, you still get a massive discount. Why are we giving this protest airtime?
The preliminary sequence from the #H5N1 human case in British Columbia has been posted, and it is not good news. The virus potentially has mutations that increase binding to human receptors. Analysis by a viral immunologist:
The preliminary sequence from the H5N1 human case in British Columbia has been posted and it is not good news. I just posted a thread of my thoughts on this on the blue sky site.
Tonight, the Woodcock Moon rises. 🌕 Folklore whispers of Woodcocks awaiting this moonlit night to cross the seas and arrive in huge numbers on our shores. It was believed tiny Goldcrests journeyed with them— riding on their backs! Look up for the final Supermoon of the year.
Dear BBC, please do not call anti-vaxxers “vaccine sceptics”. It implies there exists doubt about vaccines. 70-odd years ago we had large numbers of people paralysed or in iron lungs. We don’t see that today and for that we can thank the Salk vaccine.
Being honest with others about the fact that your chronic illness is forever and that you won’t get better isn’t you accepting defeat. It’s you telling the truth, and if they can’t accept it, that’s on them. Many of us will even get worse. Get used to it.
it doesn't make sense why people equate wearing a mask to being in a constant state of panic & anxiety. are you panicking the whole time you're wearing a seatbelt?

A reminder when it comes to disability.. The key terms are: Reliably, repeatedly, safely, and at 50%+ of the days. So if someone is "able" to do something one day, but it's unsafe, they can't guarantee it, and they need several days to recover: They are not "able" to do it.
Please read this. It's literally been 8 years in the writing. The first wave of tech disruption of democracy 2016-2024 is over. What starts now is something much, much worse: the age of information chaos. 1/ theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
Several years ago, when things were bad as they are now, I made a comic about art and community in the face of hate. Today feels like a time to reshare. 1/5
They say we get the leaders we deserve. Either that has just been disproven, or this is not the America we all thought we were living in.
I'm staying here for now. If you think your followers may like photos I've created that can dial down stress levels & even lift mood by just looking at them,then maybe give this a RT? I post my photos most days,along with simple neuroscience-based tips on improving mental health.
Word of the day is ‘recrudescence’ (17th century): the return of something terrible after a time of reprieve.
