stoned and autistic at a party trying to make conversation: I find the comparative lifespan of organisms so interesting. Spiders are comparatively long lived animals. Female black widows can live up to 3 years but their male counterparts rarely live four months. Some tarantulas live upwards of 20 years. The longest lived spider was around 43 years old when she was cruelly assassinated by a parasitic wasp. Domestic rats have a lifespan comparable to female black widows. To put things into perspective, there are spiders that remember a pre-pandemic world but it is likely every rat on earth was born post-COVID. There could be a spider out there born when Reagan was in office.

I just want to assure my younger followers that, yes, the lead up to Iraq was virtually identical and just as transparent and stupid in its attempts to manufacture consent in the general public.

AND IT WORKED. BOTH TIMES.

Me four months ago: One risk of the pandemic is that we take the narrow lesson that we need to be ready for pandemics, but don’t take the lesson of generally anticipating rare but foreseeable events and preparing for their eventual occurrence. We cannot be prepared for truly unforeseeable events, but there are many things that we can guess will eventually happen – like a coronal mass ejection-based solar storm – which we are not doing that much to anticipate or prepare for, as well as problems like climate change and antibiotic resistance that we can be pretty sure are big problems that we are nonetheless ignoring. Prepping for the next pandemic isn’t enough – we need to build political momentum  to have a more forward-looking vision of public policy.

Me now: Yeah. We’re not even going to be ready for the next pandemic. Hell, we’re not even going to do anything about this one. -_-
