Lambert and I, and many readers, agree that Ukraine has prompted the worst informational environment ever. We hope readers will collaborate in mitigating the fog of war — both real fog and stage fog — in comments. None of us need more cheerleading and link-free repetition of memes; there are platforms for that. Low-value, link-free pom pom-wavers will be summarily whacked.

And for those who are new here, this is not a mere polite request. We have written site Policies and those who comment have accepted those terms. To prevent having to resort to the nuclear option of shutting comments down entirely until more sanity prevails, as we did during the 2015 Greek bailout negotiations and shortly after the 2020 election, we are going to be ruthless about moderating and blacklisting offenders.

–Yves

P.S. Also, before further stressing our already stressed moderators, read our site policies:

Please do not write us to ask why a comment has not appeared. We do not have the bandwidth to investigate and reply. Using the comments section to complain about moderation decisions/tripwires earns that commenter troll points. Please don’t do it. Those comments will also be removed if we encounter them.

U.S. Economy Transitions to Slower Growth as Inflation Weighs on Consumers WSJ. The URL shows how the editors rewrote the headline: us-employers-labor-costs-inflation-q2-2022. On “transitions,” commentary:

 

But, those living paycheck to paycheck, by definition, are destroyed by losing their paycheck. They will suffer the most from the Fed’s “unconditional” focus on inflation, recession or not. (Note, the Fed has two obligations, not one as he says.) The ones at the bottom go first. pic.twitter.com/Av1LrJ9GTu

#COVID19

Oz:

COVID-19: Time to put people ahead of politics Insight. Australian Medical Association. Austrialian visits New York: “[T[t was striking how much more sophisticated their response was than ours” [bangs head on desk].

Three myths about COVID-19 — and the biggest challenge that lies ahead ABC Australia (KatieBird). “As an immunologist with four decades of research on antibodies under my belt, I always felt like I had a pretty good handle on COVID-19. But when I caught the virus in May, my hubris quickly turned into humility. COVID-19 left me with a serious heart complication that occurs in 2 per cent of infected people, with the risk not diminished by immunisation or prior infection.” The myths: “Myth #1: It’s just a cold now so let’s get it over with”; “Myth #2: Being fully immunised stops infection”; “Myth #3: Variant-specific vaccines are the answer.” Lots and lots of charts. Well worth a read.

Hope, denial and Covid-19 The Saturday Paper

Queensland records more than 18,000 COVID-19 cases after software issue ABC Australia (Skippy).

Why these two East Vancouver residents are distributing thousands of N95 masks for free CBC (MR). Being Canadian, the two residents characterize BC’s mask policy as “neglectful.” What “neglectful” means is that Dr. Bonnie Henry, BC’s Provincial Health Officer, is a malevolent droplet goon.

Los Angeles County avoids new mask rule as COVID stabilizes LA Times. I think I’ve seen this movie before….

Life expectancy in Japan sees first decline in 10 years amid pandemic Japan Times

Pandemic Inspires A New Crop Of Farmers Texas Observer. Being a peasant is not in the least romantic.

Monkeypox

America Should Have Been Able to Handle Monkeypox Katherine Wu, The Atlantic. The deck: “Has COVID taught us nothing?”

Clinical features and novel presentations of human monkeypox in a central London centre during the 2022 outbreak: descriptive case series BMJ. n = 197. Conclusions: “These findings confirm the ongoing unprecedented community transmission of monkeypox virus among gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men seen in the UK and many other non-endemic countries.” The sampling comes from HCID (High consequence infectious diseases) Centres in London. Gruesome photos.

Pelosi Visit Sets Up No-Win Situation on Taiwan Foreign Policy. Pelosi’s district is 31.9% Asian. Of course, Asian is not the same as Chinese. Nevertheless, I would not be surprised to learn that high-value Chinese donors have strong views on Taiwan policy, and were greatly concerned to share them with Pelosi. So, 冰淇淋 (if I have translated aright).

2024

Trump Just Told Us His Master Plan David Frum, The Atlantic. The deck: “If he gets in next time, he won’t be dislodged by any means.” Seems legit. After all, we haven’t even been able to “dislodge” Bush era war criminal flack David Frum.

The Bezzle

Tiger Global-backed Missfresh stops paying salaries as it runs out of cash FT. “An executive at the Tiger Global-backed company told employees on a hastily arranged call that an expected investment from a coal mining group had not materialised, and that it could not pay overdue June salaries.” So the Shanghai PMCs whinging about not being able to get food deliveries during lockdowns were really whinging about not being able to cash in their tiny subsidies from the billionaires who funded loss-making operations. Just like here. And the “essential workers” are left holding the bag. Just like here. It’s a funny old world, as Maggie Thatcher once remarked.

Elon Musk Tesla’s new $10000 home for sustainable living. Queen Stories. Entertaining, because AI that emitted it needs some work. This is the only link I can find on Musk’s putative newest project. The rest is on YouTube, Pinterest, and Reddit, so organic, totally. Nevertheless, I am filing this adjacent to “The Bezzle,” not in it, because today is my day to be kind.

Back in the day, I occasionally glanced at the newspaper of the Albanian Communist Party (gray newsprint, very). I vividly remember a triumphant story about Albania…. building a boat. “Renewing” a single-track line from New York to Burlington reminds me of that, somehow.

I’m pretty mild-mannered about critters generally, but when the groundhogs threatened to invade — they didn’t — I was looking into potato guns.
