- Reposted by Sparrow / LizI wrote about this a bit in my last book but it really shakes me that a defining feature of this catastrophic era is that we just keep going to work. We work through pandemics, we work through natural disasters, we work through economic calamity, we work through coups, we work, we work, we work.

- Reposted by Sparrow / LizThe “only the vulnerable are at risk” narrative was a carefully crafted PR move. It was a comfortable lie to prop up the economy and get people back to work & spending money. It also conditioned people to accept eugenics and fascism. To treat their fellow human being as an acceptable loss.
