I am torn between being utterly heartbroken that this kind of bigotry exists in this country where people complain about an LGBT+ display at a library DURING PRIDE, and so very proud of the wonderful malicious compliance by the @ErieLibrary children’s librarians. 🌈

The worst part is that the inflammation from wildfire smoke and other factors potentially like increased time indoors, etc., make it more likely that COVID will kill you, per this study of deaths in 2020. hsph.harvard.edu/news/press-…
that thing where you file a legal brief that you asked another lawyer to help you with, and that other lawyer chatgpted it, and chatgpt straight up invented a bunch of citations with quotes to support your argument, and now the judge is pissed. reason.com/volokh/2023/05/27…
there's finally a semi-official definition of long covid, and it looks like between 10% and 23% of people who get covid end up with it. archive.ph/RKpcJ

"IRREGARDLESS" HAS BEEN AROUND SINCE 1795. ITS INCLUSION IN THE DICTIONARY IS NOT A SIGN OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE FALLING TO PIECES, OR PROOF OF THE EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM FAILING, NOR IS IT THE WORK OF CURSED MILLENNIALS. IT JUST MEANS A LOT OF PEOPLE USE IT TO MEAN "REGARDLESS."

Better statement: "Kaitlyn had an impossible job, whiffed on some major points where she failed to follow up (namely infanticide) and tried to wrangle Trump, often without success. She allowed a victim of sexual assault to be disparaged and mocked by Trump and an unruly crowd. The entire thing was an embarrassment. We failed to serve our audience or bring clarity to complex issues facing Americans. We think it probably got good ratings tho, so.... bygones!"
NEW: CNN statement on @kaitlancollins following #TrumpTownHall: “Tonight Kaitlan Collins exemplified what it means to be a world-class journalist. She asked tough, fair and revealing questions. And she followed up and fact-checked President Trump in real time …”
