There is some real movie set snow going on in Chicago right now. Just this very gentle, dry snow while still being bright out, and no wind.

The Puppy Bowl posted:It's hard to believe that's so when you consider the astounding stupidity of the average American of the 70s, 80s, and 90s. The ability for all branches of stupidity to interconnect, feed off of and amplify one another has just sped up poo poo by an order of magnitude. My parents saw my sister in California over Christmas and she is apparently now anti vax. Her toddler is not vaccinated, and she is currently like seven months pregnant. She does not have an obgyn, relying instead on a doula, even though she was recently hospitalized with sustained tach in the 160s I briefly explained to my parents how since everything on Facebook is connected, it is very easy to go from like vegan cookie ideas to anti vax/wayfair smuggling children. Sister isn’t qanon yet but once you go down the anti vax hole there’s not an appreciable difference at the end of the day.

That algorithm effect is a problem. Still, how much of your sister spiraling out is that and how much is a couple decades of institutional incompetence and malice proving the traditional authorities of our societyuntrustworthy. I mean, can we really expect better from folks than siding with the internet corridor that makes them feel best given circumstances?

Antivax has had a bit of a foothold in California for a while hasn’t it? Like dating back well before Covid. Seems like there’s a bit of horseshoe theory at play when it comes to vaccines and GMOs.

There's a bunch of weird hippie spiritualist people who went from that to COVID denial to full blown Qanon.

For over a decade Vancover, Washington (the bedroom community just north of Portland) has been a national hub of both proud boy fascists and wine mom antivaxxers. We should have known these strains of humanity would eventually crossbreed.

Yeah I think it's been able to gain the foothold in the public discourse that is has in part because it has that sort of "bipartisan" support. If it was just weird hippies or weirder libertarian types it could be dismissed a lot more easily.

The anti-vax crowd has grown ever since there was a debunked report that vaccines cause autism. The report never had any actual evidence, but crazy moms clung onto it. Combine that with naturlists, hippie granola moms, and then the general anti-government/anti-science crowd and there were already a bunch of anti-vaxers. Most of those were parents not vaccinating their kids though, since they had been given vaccines as kids already. This was leading to mumps and measles outbreaks in certain communities.

I've said it before and I still stan for it: Portland has more decent BBQ places than should be for a population that has very few black people. Meanwhile here in Maryland part of the DMV my sister lives in has complete poo poo BBQ options. Good thing my brother-in-law loves barbecuing/smoking meats.

I’ve had enough hosed up OB calls that a non-hospital delivery was not even remotely an option for our kiddo.

Growing up I had a friend I played sports with who at one point I just found out were "Pray the disease away" type Christians, and I found out when they were horrified my sister with type 1 diabetes would use insulin and go to a doctor for it. His mother eventually passed away from a brain tumor that I didn't find out how treatable or curable it was, only that they refused any medical help, and it destroyed that family when she passed.

Years ago at another service we had this 30yo Type 1 in our run who was very sick and had frequent seizures with long postictal phases, but also had a sudden cardiac arrest once and was commonly metabolically deranged. You haven’t lived until you show up to a house to find your patient’s snake handler mom dumped a Kirkland jug of clover honey in your patient’s mouth and is standing over you speaking in tongues and screaming about the ‘DEMON OF DIABETES’ while you’re trying to suction that poo poo out of her airway.

It’s always weird to me that people opt for home birth when it seems like birth before it was an option was basically a coin flip for the mom, the baby, or both dying.

Way late to the party on the Marvel What If… show, but ending the whole thing with Killmonger and Nazi Computer being sent to a hell dimension where they do battle forever, like they’re two sides of the same coin, is a hilarious troll at the expense of the “Killmonger was right” crowd.

It's always been wild to me how many pregnant people refuse medical treatment claiming that bodies were made to birth. I've given birth 3 times, and each time I went to the hospital to have the baby, I knew there was a greater than zero chance that me or the baby was going to die. People just don't think bad things will happen to them.
