I didnt post a TikTok. I posted a story from one of the legacy media sources. I looked into it because of TikTok. And that’s the only thing I’ve posted that had anything to do with TikTok. And I would tell you if it wasn’t. My TikTok feed is mostly people fighting and hoes dancing. Most of the things I post come from various podcasts.

Several years ago Rolling Stone also published a hoax about a gang rape at the University of Virginia. These people should be treated the same way Infowars is. That was reported by a lot of people with zero follow up or vetting of facts apparently. Youre not wrong for criticizing that half assed attempt at journalism. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we now know that the vaccine’s benefits far outweigh the risks. And they need to keep hammering this fact down because pregnant women are one of the most at risk of having issues from Covid.

Better than that - he likely has at least some antibody protection against COVID. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except in the past they've done decent journalism. Problem is all it takes is one or two royal cockups like these to ruin years of building your brand and reputation. Don't know if they are Infowars level, but I would put them now in the "treat as highly skeptical unless backed up by other sources" category. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where’s the common sense? https://www.google.com/amp/s/news.yahoo.com/amphtml/appeals-court-rules-favor-florida-174158901.html Quote A Florida appeals court ruled on Friday in favor of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, issuing a stay in a case that effectively reinstates his ban on mask mandates in the state's public schools to the dismay of many parents and teachers. I'm not a lawyer, but I think the appeals court thought the parents suing DeSantis would lose so the court order the stay revoked. While we could argue whether this is good or not, it is how the legal system works. That may not be how we want it to work, but that's a totally separate discussion. It does seem the parents are appealing to the state Supreme Court, but in the meantime the mask mandate ban is back in place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My daughter had the vaccine during pregnancy. My grandson is 3 months old. He’s healthy and no evidence to date that he’s beaming signals to the mothership. There was an article I read a few years back that there were realistically two times in a person's life when their brand loyalties could be changed: when they first moved out on their own away from their parents, and when they expected their first child. The latter case is because the soon-to-be parents have zero understanding or frame of reference to know what's coming and so they depend on outside sources ... and get inundated with countless data points. As any parent will tell you, you end up with umpteen different things you should or shouldn't do. This is just yet another point of uncertainty, which is ramped up due to the overlap of the pandemic and their pregnancy. The last thing a new parent wants to do is think they made a bad decision that will harm their child over their lifetime. I'm not necessarily defending the decision not to vaccinate here but I can understand the hesitancy as it is just another massive decision they need to make in an even-in-non-COVID-scenario scary time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
