There is a lot of verbiage going on about the mass firing of healthcare workers in NY State and the emergency declaration by the governor to mitigate the problem she has just created, but I think this paragraph makes the best point.

One question everyone should ask themselves is why approximately 70,000 healthcare workers and an as yet unknown number of emergency services providers may walk off the job rather than get vaccinated.

Think about the personal and professional costs this decision means for these folks. When you do it screams “caution” louder than anything else I can think of .

I think the lawsuits from patients who will get substandard care to to lack of staff or unqualified staff are going to be really something.

I was a tad under the weather yesterday (yes that still happens without involving COVID) so I saw more of twitter than I normally do and there seems to be one theme that reoccurs more than I would expect at this point

surprise and shock at the actions of the left an example

Why are you surprised, Marxists are all about ends and means and in a post Christian society the whole "false witness" business is out the window.

after all if you can redefine "marriage', "man" and "woman" then changing a quote is nothing

It’s something I’ve been seeing off and on for days and even experienced people are expressing this

There are many words ways to describe the left rewriting history to eliminate terror by communists & their allies.

Despicable, Dishonorable, Dastardly, Evil

"Incredible" like "surprising" is not among them https://t.co/dYvguQzBH1

So let me say this once and for all.

Stop being surprised at the actions of the left!

Once you have a post Christian society the norms that you are used to aren’t in play. The left is basically a bunch of Marxists and for Marxists it’s ends and means and their ends are wealth, power, prestige and position at your expense.

So please stop being surprised at Marxists acting the part, that’s what they do and if we weren’t armed they’d do worse.

….when the FBI wasn’t the butt of jokes:

…when a speech like this was not considered odd:

“But to me, a politician speaking openly, I consider myself to be rather conservative. And I actually was always frank about my views. I’m a Christian. I’m a practicing Christian. I pray. I’m not ashamed of that whatsoever, and to me the value of family is priceless. I do support families. I’m pro-life. I defend life. I believe that life is sacred. I believe it should be guarded. And families have to be supported as strong as they can because family is the foundation of every nation. Everything is based on family. Therefore, the support with which we offer families for the political perspective, from my personal perspective is key importance,”

…when Australia and Australians were thought of like this….

and not this:

More insane police overreach in Melbourne. Guy put in handcuffs for being a few hundred metres from his home. Police say “he has no valid reason to be there” & “wasn’t wearing a face mask”. He says he was getting lunch & having a cigarette.https://t.co/7iQvVDkUcg

…when saying “only women have a cervix” was not a question that pols ran from:

'Is it transphobic to say only women have a cervix?'

…when the “New England Patriots” and “Debacle” were not used in the same sentence in the Bill Belichick era.

Russell T. Davies is returning to Doctor Who after 3 disasters years of Chris Chibnall  in charge. I can’t put it better than the folks at Nerdrodic put it

As he put it the first thing Davies has to do is to re-establish the series canon, if not I’m not going to bother with it and I suspect neither will a lot of other people who didn’t waste their time with the Whitaker era.

Don’t get me wrong, it will still be a woke show. Davies shows were VERY woke for their time but the priority was entertainment & stories. Let’s not forget that his final episode’s McGuffin was Obama about to save the world’s economy.

Further nobody should expect Davies to have any bad thing to say (particularly publicly) about the last three years. Even he hates it and thinks it’s a disaster he won’t have a thing on it.

I suspect that it’s going to be a tease for the 1st year. I’m not going to bother with it until I know where this is going one way or the other. I’m not 13 or even 42 anymore & I’m not going to waste my limited time left on earth on even Davies return until I know where it’s going.

As it was said in a Sci Fi Franchise almost as old as Doctor Who once said:
