Listened to this esteemed pediatric doctor regarding Covid. Basically:
- Delta Covid is super duper scary. No regular Covid was super duper scary. Delta Covid is triple dog scary. Your kids should be shaking.
- Masks work and should be required in schools. Except you should still expect them to get sick because they don't work all that great.
- You are evil if you don't think masks should be required in schools. Pay no attention to what I just said above.
- Even though it is extremely unlikely your kid will die, SOME kid will die so all kids should be afraid.
- Even though some kid will die, no kids should stay at home. This is so triple dog scary but it is important kids should be in school rather than home schooled or even learning virtually.
I am not kidding. This was real. I will even share the link to Yewtube if you want me to.
I woke up this morning and started thinking about the Titanic, and how the US is like a sinking ship, and how politics can be explained quite easily in this metaphor.
First, with Republicans in charge, seats on the lifeboats would be sold to the highest bidder.
If Libertarians were in charge, they would insist on filling the boats with women and children, and would hold the boats in until no men were on the lifeboat, and all the people on board therefore would perish as no compromise could ever be made.
Meanwhile the Democrats in charge do actually fill the boat with women and children, but 95% of the women are actually men in drag and each and every child on the boat gets molested and has psychological problems the rest of their lives.
