#unconstitutional

Yep

  I’ve had this meme on my Tumblr page for years. Literally, years.  Recently, I noticed that they removed it for “Violating Tumblr’s Community Guidelines.”   Really?! Where? How? I know that ceiling is terrifying, but, seriously…

Fuck NO!

#resist

what a shame it would be if this were to be rebloged by a bunch of people, spreading the message further than the original reddit post could have ever reached.

Update because this got way to popular: the source of this image seems to be a bit fishy and not nearly as large as I thought it was. With that I would ask that, instead of going back to being apathetic, please reply/ reboot with any actually useful methods of resistance. Hopefully, we will find a way to resist and make a real difference, but even if we don’t please do not give up, they want the see nothing more than their biggest opponents eliminating themselves. And please check whatever resources have been provided so that we can minimize this damage

A cult based on hate can make you do some horrible things.

Love this book!

#thetruth

you saw, what you saw.

you saw an app that was used for organizing and spreading information be banned to suppress free speech.

you saw that app be brought back but as a fascist propaganda machine.

you saw the richest man in the world do a nazi salute and be cheered by thousands of people.

you saw ICE agents deport hundreds (for now) of undocumented immigrants.

you saw it. you saw it all. dont let a single person tell you that you haven't.

unite. resist. fight.

dont let them stamp you out.

Science

Face masks effectively limit the probability of SARS-CoV-2 transmission

Airborne transmission by droplets and aerosols is important for the spread of viruses. Face masks are a well-established preventive measure,

We show that mask efficacy strongly depends on airborne virus abundance. Based on direct measurements of SARS-CoV-2 in air samples and population-level infection probabilities, we find that the virus abundance in most environments is sufficiently low for masks to be effective in reducing airborne transmission.

[...] Wearing masks can indeed keep the number of inhaled viruses in a low Pinf regime and explain the observed efficacy of face masks in preventing the spread of COVID-19.

However, unfavorable conditions and the large variability of viral loads may lead to a virus-rich regime in certain indoor environments, such as medical centers treating COVID-19 patients. In such environments, high efficiency masks and further protective measures like efficient ventilation should be used to keep the infection risk low.
