Also, just because someone makes more than $80k doesn't mean they haven't been harmed financially by the pandemic.

PostNouveau posted:The CDC's position on schools is OPEN ER UP, so that's the science now A graduate student hunches over a microfuge tube rack under a fume hood. The only sound is the clacking of discarded tips from a micropipet as young scientist mixes infinitesimal amounts of a seemingly endless array of reagents, sprouting from their ice bucket like alien fungi. They want to breathe, but dread contaminating the concoction, obliterating hours of sweaty toil in lab coat and latex gloves. After an eternity it is ready. With the caution afforded a newborn infant, they cradle their tube to the incubator, punch in the program and wait. The next several hours are filled with dread. Did they follow the protocol? Were they off by a microliter? Was the temperature right? Staring at the computer screen does nothing but strain their eyes. Browsing becomes doomscrolling as it always has. There is nobody with them. All have gone home, leaving nothing but the unnatural fluorescent lights and the inky blackness outside the windows to keep them company. Eternities pass. The incubator hums. Finally, three gentle beeps from the incubator signal that the time has arrived. With fear and anticipation, they remove the sample and inject it into the loathsome, cancerous gel they had prepared earlier. Under the ultraviolet light, they watch the fruits of their labors ooze through the gelatinous mass. Sweat pours from their brow. They need to relieve themselves but not now. Not when they're so close. They hold it and wait. Finally the results are clear. They gibber in excitement and relief. "Trump isn't president! OPEN ER UP!"

Nothing is going to happen. DC libs think 1/6 was their 9/11 so we're going to get the associated security state hysteria all over again. Most of the country now believes that either Qanon is going to pull off a fascist coup or Qanon is going to pull off a heroic coup, lmao.

Toxic masculinity is a major problem in a lot of Hispanic communities and promotes conservative values hard in those places. Same with several other groups We need to stop pretending "conservatism" as we know it is a "white guy only" club. A lot of the poo poo comes from toxic masculinity regardless of class or race.

If going to school makes kids more successful later in life, then maybe we should increase school funding and raise teachers' pay and make college free so everyone can go.
