A solid rule in public policy is most things take much longer to fix than they do to break and the rate of breakage now is so profound that we're just digging a hole that'll take longer to dig out of than we will have to fix it before someone is like "What if we try that again though?"
The measles outbreak in South Carolina is “accelerating” with no end in sight following Thanksgiving and other large gatherings, state health officials say.
South Carolina measles outbreak is 'accelerating,' driving hundreds into quarantine
Some students who remain unvaccinated are now in a second 21-day quarantine since the beginning of the school year.

If you are worried this is too big an executive function barrier you can go to a pharmacy and they will probably just jab you. That is what I did.
I'm not saying it's necessarily the right way to do this, that is just how much I am not fucking around with the measles

Go to your doctor and get your measles titers checked to make sure you are still immune and if not get re-vaccinated. It’s more and more likely all of us are going to eventually come in contact with it.
The thing about measles is that it’s the only known virus that triggers immune amnesia - it causes your immune system to forget everything it has previously learned. Meaning you essentially reset to zero and are now at risk of basically everything.
It can take 2-3 years to get immunities back.

Today, I spoke with Kilmar Abrego Garcia and his wife, Jennifer. In April, when I met with him in El Salvador, Trump said he would never set foot in the U.S. again.
This case has never been about one man alone; if the govt can violate the constitutional rights of one, all our rights are threatened.

I know the bar's set much lower for this one president, but it's awful that he live-tweets the news, spouting baseless speculations, rather than rely on the world's best information apparatus that has intel agencies and police depts on call. The president's role should be a calming one, not... this.
He issued a correction, proving why he needs to stfu and let the cops do their jobs.
It’s a a goddamned ongoing tragedy, not a reality TV show, primed for him to drop the big reveal.

Mind you, ICE fascists tried to criminally prosecute someone for throwing a sandwich at them. Now, they have ZERO problem repeatedly and heavily pepper spraying peaceful civilians conducting their civic duty of peaceful protest. We call them fascists because they act like fascists.

After ten years in Minnesota, I am comfortable saying that this man is so filled with incandescent fury, I’m surprised he doesn’t glow on film.
I genuinely don't know if this is a "Minnesotan" thing or an "old guy of a certain age" thing but in case it's Minnesotan and people need an anger translator: this guy is so angry he could just about set something on fire with his mind.

In my opinion the president shouldn't constantly be like "Holy shit did you guys see this?" and repeating a thing he kinda heard on TV. I don't think that should be mostly what the president does.
