"Compared to short flights without masking, medium and long flights without masking were associated with 4.66-fold increase (95% CI: [1.01, 21.52]; p < 0.0001) and 25.93-fold increase in incidence rates (95% CI: [4.1, 164]; p < 0.0001), respectively; long flights with enforced masking had no transmission reported. A 1 h increase in flight duration was associated with 1.53-fold (95% CI: [1.19, 1.66]; p < 0.001) increase in the incidence rate ratio (IRR) of cases. Masking should be considered for long flights"

One day, we're going to find out that Al was a Mechanical Turk the whole time and we're actually paying some overconfident little dude named Al to write stupid responses

Missing from progressive movements is a thread of understanding how justice and the anatomy of an apology fits into both individual and societal experiences of systemic oppression
Honestly, I think folks are just burned the fuck out and don't have bandwidth for that. I feel ya. But it's still important to bring that back into the picture when we can.
And important to consider the realism that sometimes we just need to give them some fucking cookies as a damned Pavlovian conditioning cycle. Not because we have to, not because we should, but because it fucking works.
Sometimes we have to do things not for our ideals but for our survival.

Sometimes when people do the right thing, it's "too little, too late"
When that comes after they hurt us, we often react from reasonable anger. Anger isn't wrong, and we shouldn't have to hand out cookies
What's missing is explaining that they're missing the other 5 parts of the anatomy of an apology. In particular, they haven't acknowledged the hurt, pain, and other impact they caused, nor done the work to fix past harm.

It's all fun and games until someone loses an IAM role

There's a certain flavor of person who makes it their own responsibility to unlearn and process the various forms of systemic oppression we've all absorbed by living in it
And then there's a certain flavor of person (usually White/male/cis/etc) who not only does none of those things but actively resists folks explaining the things they should have learned on their own
I want to ask them how they remained so ignorant of the very visible world around them, and yet...the answer is right there
