It’s all about pushing responsibility to do something downward as far as possible and then providing the individual school districts zero support against crazies doing terrorisms.

I've had this big-brained idea for a while to make a falafel patty without the usual herbs but instead an amount of black beans (20% the amount of chickpeas?) and some yeast extract + savory spices for use as a patty replacement in junk food sandwiches

I keep feeling like the recipe just isn't there yet but dammit I gotta just try and fail a few times or it's never gonna get there!! :hai:

The white people are going crazy about masks in Illinois schools.

The private Catholic schools are feeling it to. The students there generally tend to be from wealthier families, and parents that wanted to avoid the labor struggles and COVID restrictions in Chicago public schools shifted to them in the past two years. The thing is, the Catholic schools have, if anything, shut down and gone to remote more often than the public schools. The Catholic schools were just better at keeping their measures out of the news.

Now that the Catholic schools are enforcing mask mandates, which legally I believe they can do, families are upset.

This is basically why napalm and other things like it were invented.

Masks4all I don’t think fits the bill entirely. Like half the regulars aren’t engaging with reality, they just have their own weird delusions like not trusting the mRNA vaccines and holding out for Novavax.

Masks are also to some extent a magical talisman to them, not in the way that surgical mask around Blue MAGA necks wards off COVID at brunch, they do at least demand quality in their talisman, but they are completely and utterly convinced that N95 are a panacea. They don’t like to think about how the system crushes us all.

It’s the equal and opposite of the Chise archetype, where the vaccine is a panacea and makes all non‐pharmaceutical intervention obsolete.

Same way the rest of our hierarchies are arranged. The top just exists to skim money and make grand pronouncements, the bottom is the one to make the money and plans happen, usually with few resources, guidance, or authority. When they finally get something together, the people at the top can take credit for what worked and utterly destroy anyone who didn't make a plan that gave them results they liked. All the responsibility, none of the authority.

Industrialsafety.com delivered my new respirator.

The tracking number for the shipment was emailed to me an hour after it arrived.

It contained only the respirator, in an unsealed bag, and not the three pack of filters that were also in the order.

Industrialsafety.com blows, I ordered the same stuff from rshughes.com last night so lets see how they do.

I loving hate these parents that blame masking on their kids not speaking or having speech development problems. Each kid develops differently, masking isn’t impacting it. The kid either doesn’t want to talk yet or there’s something else wrong (they’re just slow) and they need extra support.

Read to your kids more, speak to them about what you’re doing, and stop giving them an iPad to watch coco melon all day then blame there development issues on masking. loving dipshits.

This is something I’ve been wondering about. I for gently caress sure don’t have kids so maybe I’m out of my element here, but wouldn’t a lot of these development issues people are blaming on masks actually just be byproducts of being raised by the kind of person that’s going to demand that their child be allowed to catch covid more easily?

Like, I’ve seen these people at the grocery store with a ten year old in a stroller staring at his phone because that’s the only thing he knows how to do. Maybe these kids suck because nobody gives a poo poo about them?
