next time someone asks me what my favorite book is I'm gonna tell them they're violating my HIPAA rights

Not good!
Difficult to describe how hard it is to watch ppl in my state refuse a ground-breaking American made treatment for a deadly disease. And to watch state leaders refuse to condemn this as selfish & unpatriotic & fail to loudly endorse the vaccines. #secondwave #COVID19
Alex George retweeted
Missouri has the nation's worst COVID hotspot, and 3 counties in the top 15. The virus now is only attacking the unvaccinated, and infection rate among those who refuse to get a vaccine is as bad as it was among the general population in the Spring of 2020. (Darwin chuckles).

Er, it was a yellow star, not a gold one. Not so much marked for merit as annihilation. But other than that this is a totally great analogy!

The fact that the GOP will happily support an attempted coup but is outraged about expanding voting rights tells you all you need to know about the ethics of the Republican Party.

No. No no no no no. We are not talking about fucking NARRATIVE SHIFTS three fucking days after Trump incited a deadly attack on the Capitol.
Do not participate in punditry that treats this as just another political maneuver. Do not.
Trump "is preparing to lean into his fight with Twitter and other social media platforms this week, a Trump adviser said," using his deplatforming "to shift the narrative away from the insurrection on Capitol Hill earlier in the week," @JDiamond1 reports. cnn.com/2021/01/09/politics/…

In 1968, the police swarmed peaceful protestors with clubs and teargas. They used teargas and clubs at St. John's church so Trump could hold up a Bible. With this mob, they're playing nice.
