p sure that's the intention, but the house is still making fresh pancakes and eggs and poo poo which it wouldn't be doing for long after the apocalypse. I think it ends up unintentional much more prescient if you assume the robot house was a deathtrap piece of poo poo that the owners had to guard constantly to keep from burning itself to the ground.

I'm honestly more worried about the gestalt-mind house that gets the idea to defend itself from whatever digital assistant service it's still plugged into

That's about what any reasonable person would expect to happen if you plot down a roundabout with no signage or pavement markings in a community with no experience with roundabouts.

That stopped white vehicle is really loving things up too, I think. I think that's why people in the beginning are entering it from the egress lane.

I categorically believe we need to leave Afghanistan immediately, but I sympathize with people who are worried about what will happen in the aftermath because I too am worried about it. I just don't think the US staying will do anything but make it worse

the "its about power" thing is so loving stupid. just a bunch of larpers who think they are rebels because they aren't wearing a mask. too pussy to rebel in any serious way that might have actual consequences so they they made up their own issue to rebel against

The New Republic: Set Us Free From Mask Mandates!

CNN: Do We Still Need To Wear a Mask Outdoors?

CDC guidelines to wear masks outdoors anywhere busy are likely to change soon, Fauci said

Carlson is escalating the threat to harassment if you still see them wearing a mask, but it's worth noting that even the liberal media is telling people to stop wearing masks outside.

anyway, content:

Obviously gently caress Tucker but is outdoor mask usage, especially outside of large gatherings, actually a significant thing for stopping the spread of Covid

lol that's the manufactured consent coursing through you:

* think about the George Floyd protests last year: protesters were masked, they didn't catch covid. Cops weren't masked, and they did

* even if we grant that you don't need a mask in a situation where you're so alone in the outdoors that there isn't anyone within a hundred feet of you, having to remember some kind of distance or windage or ventilation guideline vis-a-vis the people around you is just creating more rules and edge cases for people to gently caress up

* early in 2020 the guidance from the CDC was that you shouldn't wear a mask at all, under the premise that (mis)handling and tinkering with your mask just increases the chance of you triggering fomite infection from your hands touching the outside of the mask and transferring to your face. Now, if we grant that that's possible, why would it be a good idea to give people masking rules that would oblige them to repeatedly take their masks on and off as they switch from indoors to outdoors and back, or when they encounter a person on the sidewalk versus not?

the simplest, most intuitive public messaging is to just wear your mask all the time

On your first point mask usage wasn’t particularly consistent at the protests, at least not where I am, nor was distancing, especially once it got dark

yes because in addition to the above nobody is gonna want to or remember to constantly put masks on and off so it will immediately morph into “no more masks”
