"there were a few relative success stories in East Asia. But everywhere across Europe and the Americas, there are no real successes; it’s just degrees of failure. "
it's also sad that people in the west don't seem to realize how much of a failure the pandemic response was in their countries compared to the relative successes.

This is the single best piece on pandemic preparedness that I’ve read in three years. From the White House to the Gates Foundation, from the CDC to the various think tanks pondering these issues, you’ve got to take what Anne Sosin and Martha Lincoln say here and act on it. Biomedical approaches, alone, are desperately insufficient to meet the coming plague. https://www.thenation.com/article/society/pandemic-preparation-social-conditions/

Seems so obvious that companies should revert to their own domains for authoritative information issuance. Spin up their own Mastodon instance, use RSS, whatever. But relying on a third-party domain for authoritative information under their name was always a material risk, and now there is no turning back given the ongoing authentication debacle.

SCOTUS Justices clearly can’t be trusted to police themselves.
And Roberts has shown little interest in holding them to account for numerous conflicts of interest.
The Supreme Court is facing a legitimacy crisis, and failing to hold Thomas accountable will only make it worse.

Inflation is a policy choice.
Letting corporate price gouging continue unabated is a policy choice.
Refusing to tackle corporate greed is a policy choice. https://twitter.com/RBReich/status/1633517261372760074

Another great new track from Say She She! #Disco from #Brooklyn. This might be my favourite of theirs so far.

There are days in #academia when I really appreciate the ethics of gangsters. At least they show what they are up to.
