Oddbean new post about login | logout Americans can afford jackets from any country in the world, so who can say for sure? If these men aren't American, they should move to America and then get used to being in America.
Sorry to interrupt your solipsism, but those jackets are not ‘findable’ on Amazon prime or handed out as swag at an international tech junket. Few know this. Like I said. It’s a big wide world out there. Do not let that intimidate you. Instead. Travel more. It’s good for the mind. Trust me. It really is.
There's a pandemic that causes brain damage and is spread by contact with humans so no the kind of travel you're talking about is not good for the mind right now
Yes, sounds like maybe you also know someone with long Covid. It’s devastating, underreported, and rarely discussed. Brain inflammation, nervous system dysregulation, completely life altering. Thought you had another 30-40 years of career, inspiration and productivity? Long Covid says ‘fuck no, you’re done’. But more importantly consider this: we’ve built up herd immunity, Covid will always kick around with us now along with influenza and other nasty AF viruses (do not google ‘dormant virus DNA’ because we all have some and it be freaky), but seriously we are all less likely to have Covid mess with our cardiovascular and parasympathetic nervous systems as much as it did, when it first stepped out of the lab (whoops…I mean wherever. Don’t ask me. I absolutely wasn’t reading Chinese doctors’ posts in Jan 2020 when they were trying to get the word out before all of it was scrubbed from the internet in March - and yes, I am way too online) *ahem* But. To be fair everything’s a risk. Even stepping outside your home each morning. But that’s okay. And more than that, it’s totally worth stepping out. Because all we have is the time to explore this world and live our best life and to love and be loved. So live this life.
There's no actual evidence the risk due to COVID has decreased.
When you ask about the Doctors posting warnings in Jan 2020, the answer is yes. They did.
Me too. Here's a screenshot of me warning Trump to get his shit together from before he blocked me on X https://image.nostr.build/340647b5473b044cc1cd1650cd6ae25b499b729be43395b4f9f23c43169dae9a.jpg
Turns out he was quietly sending the test kits to Putin instead. 🤦♀️
Sad!
My assumption is that they’re kiwis because I live in New Zealand. I’m not sure what’s up with your xenophobia but it sucks.
Sorry you can't get into Australia
Have you ever been checked for learning disabilities? You just called me xenophobic for inviting your worst countrymen to my country you stupid piece of shit
