They were a couple- period. Everyone being interviewed says couple. Only the police say "friends". A lesbian couple got killed, and English-language news outlets won’t say so.

Ok here's a technical breakdown of why the “ Zone™ Air-Purifying Headphones” aka. the Snot Cannon aka. the Wearable SuperSpreader Event is such a staggeringly bad idea and a significant danger to public health if it is allowed to be sold.

The degree to which has been able to obtain uncritical media coverage of one of the most hazardous to public health products released to market in years is honestly amazing.

My grandma called me tonight to tell me that I have to tell my American followers to wear masks. She was very insistent. So...wear masks everyone😥
For fucks sake if you'd ever just done a real lockdown and had 80% mask compliance for just 8 weeks none of this drama would be necessary. They are going to be half assing this shit, one week on, one week off with a staggering daily death toll for the next two years.

When you think this, stacks and stacks of bodies, football stadiums of dead mothers, husbands, grandparents, 747s lined up loaded with dead children's bodies- millions dead and countless more disabled, is more "humane" than having to stay at home your brain is irreparably broken.

Interesting application of a computer vision app. BBQ places often charge by the skewer and this means the wait staff often counting up over 100 for a large party. This place automated it with an off-shelf shelf app. (Food residue means weight would not work with large stacks).

Hey Chris- I’m in Shenzhen, China. We’ve had 8 deaths from COVID out of 14 million people (the general overall response is verifiable with credible US expats living here, skepticism understood). We’ve had almost no lockdowns, none in a year, and nothing particularly draconian.1/4
We've got a long way to go and a lot of problems, but they are 100% serious about hunger and every year the situation improves.

Things are quite bad in Shanghai. China has a long and ugly history of famine, displacement, and civil unrest. The social contract we have is basically; no more of that, and a steady improvement in quality of life, and we won't quibble too much about the path that takes us there.

We absolutely cannot abide any hunger*. You can do a lot to Chinese- you've seen us put up with a lot, but hunger we will not. Whether it's an epigenetic legacy I can't say but the memory of famine is firmly burned into the Chinese collective consciousness
Again- I don't mind that most of you don't get what death on the scale that China dropping Zero-COVID would mean for the world, because the journalists who report on China can't connect the dots and are paid to chant "China bad" in unison. Start here:
Journalists-
You aren't a protected class.
You aren't noble, or special.
Your sources are at far greater risk than you.
Doxxing you isn't worse than your doxxing anyone else.

Some countries were founded in a fight against fascism, freedom from colonial powers- every nationality has its buttons you do not push if you don't want people in the street. In China, our fight was against the humiliation of colonialism, but also the of humiliation of poverty.
