  1. #News and #Media #Precautions Dept:
    #Disinformation and #Misinformation are not the same thing but can have similar impacts in terms of obscuring what's actually going on. #ClickBaiting and #ThumbnailShouting are not treated often enough in the same vein but similar precautions should apply, particularly in the #News arena. Don't be afraid to ban or at least timeout repeat offenders from your feeds. This has become a plague on #YouTube. Previously reliable sources go bad on a daily basis

  2. #People will see you taking some basic #precautions against #covid and spew some #bullshit that sounds like "are you really wearing #sunscreen? Why are you sheep so afraid of skin #cancer?"

    This is terrible: in NZ nearly 70% of new COVID cases were reinfections! We must be able to do better than this: Clean &/or filter the air- especially in healthcare, childcare, school situations; get vaccinated; mask up especially inside at mass social gatherings; socialise outside where fresh air is circulating - COVID is airborne!; etc etc - we know what to do, let’s do it!

    We were taught from a very young age (would have been the late 70's, early 80's 😮) to watch the drivers at an uncontrolled pedestrian crossing, and to make sure that they have seen you AND are going to stop before you step into the road.

    I am a strong advocate for safe roads, footpaths and shared paths - AND I believe in taking precautions for maintaining safety such as this.

    When did such teaching stop happening?? 🤔

  9. Just curious to hear from people in different places in Canada, around the world:
    What is the attitude and situation like where you are re: #covid measures? do people mask? how many, where? any other #precautions
    Just wondering if there are places where people take common sense precautions without detractors making a political issue of it.
    Very low level of masking here in West Central #Alberta- most days I'm the only staff member at work masked- very busy fast food/coffee place- though -

  10. When in any situation in which you might have to decide whether or not something is a person, please consider the consequences of error in each direction -

    false negative: I just ignorantly enslaved/bullied/tortured/murdered someone.

    false positive: I unnecessarily said "please" to a Roomba.

    If you can't PROVE that it's not someone, ERR SAFELY . Remember: only YOU can prevent totally justified robopocalypses.

  11. We all want a healthy #holiday season, so with current #illness rates, it's wise to use #precautions for a couple weeks prior to (and during) vacations and holiday gatherings. This helps you and your family avoid infections so you can enjoy your time together!

    Let's review the things we've learned the past few years about these layers.
