“Failure is the mini-theme this week. Failure to suppress…to count…to care…to recognize…to accommodate…to monitor…to test…to trust, failure all around.” Also included is an updated list of must-read articles on Covid.

When did we decide that the only way a person can “contribute” to society is economically? Why have we allowed the billionaires and capitalism to train us to see worth in such binary terms? Many people contribute in other ways. Your worth should never be tied to your job.

Gabbard valuing loyalty to Trump over respect for the facts & sound analysis is why she was almost universally regarded by national security professionals as a disastrous choice to be Director of National Intelligence. She is living up to the worst fears about her. www.nbcnews.com/politics/nat...

It appears Sec. Kennedy is getting ready to over-ride vaccine policy experts & scrub Covid shot recommendations for children, teens & pregnant people. Having a HHS secretary reset vaccine policy without hearings or expert advice is unprecedented, experts tell STAT. www.statnews.com/2025/05/15/c...

Me. And a “substantial loss in work productivity” from #LongCovid is so much more. It is a: Loss in my identity. Loss in my income. Loss in my purpose. Loss in my friendships.

Long Covid is real and those affected deserve to be taken seriously. Weaponizing vaccine approval and stigmatizing masks are both bad. Read more here: open.substack.com/pub/johndupu...

I struggle with the reporting on ChatGPT in education because it often confirms society’s negative bias against young people—oh no, this generation is unsaveable!—when it’s possible to just educate people to be less credulous about it. which is why I wrote this: so teachers could print and assign it

Haven’t been able to work in nearly two years thanks to an asymptomatic health care worker refusing to mask and getting me infected with what turned to Long Covid. Millions of people no where near healthy enough to work like they could have before

Oh, so you mean that forcing everyone back to work and school without appropriate infection protection was BAD for the ECONOMY, too? Who could have known? (It was us. The people screaming about it all the way back in 2020 when the pandemic started. Politicians only cared about the short term.)

"more free speech for whom?" is a good question to ask whenever someone says they want more free speech, as trump and the GOP did loudly and often when biden was president

I have a friend who has suffered from Long COVID 5 years now. It’s real and debilitating, affecting his ability to work and find joy in work. We need more research, not DOGE cuts.

Don’t really have anything to say tbh. Everything I’m working on and care about and have dedicated my life to is being dismantled and defunded and shat upon and I’m kind of numb.

Sure, AI may be an environmental disaster and produce mid outcomes in cases where it doesn't straight up lie, but at least it's extremely unprofitable.
