Guardian of Screwing Up @guardianofscrewingup - Tumblr Blog

I cannot stress enough what a complete disaster this is for every human being who lives and breathes on the face of the Earth. The CDC is was a world-leading institution for disease control and prevention, and that's all going down the shitter now because of a crop of literal brain-damaged nepo babies and the fact that America couldn't prevent billionaires from screaming "fire" in a crowded theatre.

Listen, all of you fuckers think you know what a pandemic is because of COVID-19, but we don't; not really. Not to downplay the tragedy of the number of people who died, but there have been multiple times throughout history when infectious diseases have emptied entire towns and cities. When you could walk through desolate neighbourhoods in which every living soul was dead or dying. The power of prayer didn't stop that. "Clean eating" didn't stop that. Fucking chiropractic didn't stop that.

You know what did stop that?

Fucking VACCINES and ANTIBIOTICS stopped it. Fucking PROPHYLACTICS stopped it. Fucking SCIENCE stopped it!

Actual, genuine research, carried out by trained, well-educated and well-resourced professionals! Not some idiot fucking fitness bro or "autism mom" watching YouTube videos, but ACTUAL FUCKING SCIENTISTS METHODICALLY TESTING HYPOTHESES IN A FUCKING LABORATORY.

But now we're all going to get reacquainted with the fucking Plague Maiden because a bunch dirty fucking stupid, selfish, middle class individualists thought that being asked to wear a mask was the worst oppression that anyone ever faced. May God have mercy, because apparently, praying for survival is our frontline public health policy now.

on behalf of my ex i would like to add: Fucking EPIDEMIOLOGY of the kind where "John Snow mapped cholera deaths and noticed the cluster around the Broad Street pump" is the most basic and well-known example also stopped it!

I owe a lot to that vanished group. Were you in it? I miss you. Made this short comic for Dirty Diamonds #4- breakups. If you missed it at MICE and SPX this year, it’ll be at Asbury Park Comic Con in 2014, and fingers crossed for TCAF.

this comic is ten years old!!!! The obfuscated forum was a matrix fanfic/RP guild on neopets around 2000-2001 . I’ve never been able to find any of the people in it, but I still think a lot about the slightly older mod who ran it and the folks I bumped into in fandom spaces who helped me figure out how to survive online; I owe a lot to them.

Deadly egg recall

The FDA has upgraded an egg recall issued last month to “Class I,” its highest risk level, as it warns the public that consuming the products could cause “serious adverse health consequences or death.”

The recall of 1,589,577 dozen white-shell eggs and brown cage-free shell eggs was initially issued by Midwest Poultry Services in late July, which warned they might be contaminated with Salmonella Enteritidis.

According to the company, the eggs were produced and distributed from farms in Texas between June 6 and July 3 and have sell-by or best-by dates between July 20 and August 17. The recalled egg cartons have either the code P-1950 or 0840962 and Julian Dates between 157-184.

Actually, no, I don't think that friendships dropping like flies in your late 20s and early 30s because no one has time for that between overwork and family obligations and marriage and kids and partners and the ritual of the time slayer is normal and ok. No I don't think deep conversations and spontaneous adventures being replaced with a tired coffee every six months is a normal part of growing up. I don't think that emotional intimacy and soul bonds disintegrating in the face of practical inconvenience is a fact of life. I think that means something is deeply deeply wrong with our society and I will never forgive it for the friends I've lost

nasa is using a 3D world graphic for the solar eclipse thingy today where germany is still devided in east and west adjfglkafdhgadfg. buddies, it's been almost 40 years.

So I showed this to a physicist and they were like "Oh! Yes! It's a figure from Fred Espenak's very old paper where he did a bunch of eclipse graphics! I've been looking at these my entire internet life, basically, for every solar eclipse! They called him Mr. Eclipse. He just passed away recently 🥺"

Anyway apparently Mr. Eclipse made 5000 years' worth of solar eclipse graphics, which you can find the simpler versions of here

So now instead of laughing at NASA for their outdated graphics I'm emotional about Mr. Eclipse and his hard work
