@DrSallyHutch @mattmua72 Govts fckd up climate change too. No one listened until actuaries reported things were no longer insurable. Actuaries are starting to write reports on health insurance claims, excess deaths and declining life expectancy. The moral of the story, listen to actuaries, not Govts.

@euphorixa My ex desperately wanted kids, then declared the kids were too much. Then went on to have two more with his girlfriend. Then they split too. If psychologists could develop a reliable man baby test, to weed them out before we marry or cohabit with them it’d be worth a fortune.

@a_better_world2 @joeolivermd What I find fascinating is friends who only feed their kids organic food, make them play sport, but send them to school during a pandemic without venilation or masks. Shows how much misinformation is out there.

@ask_aubry Believe people's actions. She has a long history of very strange and strained relationships with people and herself (drugs/weight issues) She actively sought to keep him away from the kids. Parental alienation is real. Of all posters, I thought you'd be aware of that.

@drseanmullen @TheLemurGuy My 17 year old has long covid. He quietly left school, spends his days in bed. His friends don’t visit any more. He’s totally invisible to the world. How quickly they’re forgotten by friends. After a while of not being able to accept an invitation, the invitations stop coming

@JohnMilionis @Melbourne John, there’s been many historical mass extinction events. Survivors were able to adapt / change their existing behaviour. Looks like someone in that car doesn’t want to get a highly contagious vascular / immune disregulating disease from their fellow passenger. Smart.
