Amount of time you are exposed matters. There are people who do not get it even though people in their house are positive. The more you continue to be exposed, the more the risk increases.

What I was trying to tell Hedwig is that this is already 70%. The vast majority of my colleagues are incredibly overwhelmed and can’t manage except the ones who have given up and are just showing movies. It’s horrible because the work required to make hybrid teaching happen is incredibly time...

A friend of mine who lives in New York is currently quarantined because his roommate tested positive. His roommate, another friend of mine, had fairly mild symptoms, thankfully. Because the person who has tested positive is my friends roommate, my friend has to quarantine for 20 days because...

It’ll be interesting to see what the FDA does. The US is incredibly gun shy about approving things and they have been ever since not approving thalidomide saved drastically reduced the damage in the US but it will be interesting to see if the ********* results in a different reaction than the way...

I literally specifically went out of my way to say that it obviously isn’t everyone and that some people do care about the well-being of kids. But since parents aren’t the ones deciding that schools should reopen with absolutely no consideration for the crud rates in the area, I thought it was...

“I’ve got this great microchip now! I can play music in my head just by thinking about it really hard!”

I really need you to understand that one of the major reasons that I keep posting about how nightmarish teaching is right now is because of how thoroughly convinced I am that people do not get it, are not listening to teachers, and do not care. I’m sorry, Hedwig, I know you are trying to be...

The idea that loving your job means you shouldn’t be paid for it is a tool of oppression. It is abhorrent. People who love their jobs deserve to be paid commiserate to the experience and education required to hold those jobs. Teachers are consistently treated like crap, expected to make less pay...

You're right. This really doesn’t help. But if you want to find the extra hours in my life when I already only get 5 hours of sleep a night to go to therapy, more power to you. Everyone already knows my situation. It’s not confusing. It’s possible to not take my post saying that there are...

It looks like this is showing anti-bodies is 90% of people. This is not the same measure as the efficacy measure in the Moderna and Pfizer trials, so I would be careful of comparing them. (Someone correct me if I’m wrong.) The efficacy numbers in the moderna and Pfizer trials are comparing...

If only you had literally read my post, you might not have had to attack me, since i pretty clearly said I wasn’t talking about everyone and actually think it’s pretty clear that I wasn’t talking about parents. But I really hope this was good for you. But don’t worry, when all the qualified...

I’m getting 404 page not found. Can anyone summarize?

I’m so sick of pressure being put on to open the schools instead of pressure being put on to control the *********. In my state we are now being directed to move towards full reopening regardless of what any crud rates are. Superintendents aren’t even supposed to look at the rates. Just open the...

You literally tried to dictate what my point was. And now you’ve decided to personally attack me. But yeah, I’m the one whose disposition is a problem here. You get that there’s no law that says that I’m required to reply to all of your posts in sequence, right? Literally read the post you are...

That was not my talking point. Don’t tell me what I meant. Good lord. I said that I didn’t think opening it up this year would be particularly problematic because plenty of people would not be able to travel or would not have been able to train or would have to quarantine. Your decision to read...
