There’s been a rise in the number of people sick because of Covid, aging, and the slow failure of basic functions of a modern society, like healthcare. These are huge social issues. So of course the govt response is to try and dump the costs of all this back onto the individual.

@silenceresting It may have something to do with not hearing these songs at house parties or at 2 am on drunken nights out with friends, or having lots of time to sit around listening to the same records over and over.

@T33ktr3at @guthrie_stewart @drhanko2 @flying_rodent This is simply wrong, the 'TE' (Trans-Exclusionary) part of 'TERF' was coined by TERFs themselves specifically to differentiate them as a distinct subset, it's a self-identifier.

@FundergroundDev Finds like that are genuinely exciting and shake up our ideas about the past. But I’m talking about robust evidence here, which is what science is built on. Science is not built on flimsy ideas and deliberate distortion of facts.
@bjames280961 Bit harsh about economic modelling, even by my standards.
@shadell131 To not check what definition is being used by a study(when Cass is aware that term can be used with different definitions) is slapdash at best in a weak paper. For a major review to guide policy, it’s bizarre. It’s a struggle to believe this is mere negligent incompetence.2/2
