Science and trust. ::  December 15, 2022 :: Robert B. Hubbell

At a moment of scientific triumph for the world, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis pinned his presidential ambitions to an anti-science platform that seeks to criminalize the action of scientists who saved tens of millions of lives in the face of a deadly pandemic. As noted briefly in yesterday’s newsletter, DeSantis has petitioned the Florida Supreme Court for the authority to convene a grand jury to investigate “any and all crimes and wrongdoing” relating to the development and distribution of mRNA vaccines in Florida.

         DeSantis’s action will kill Americans. Many will view the fake investigation as validation of lies and disinformation spread by depraved politicians, media personalities, and hucksters of every ilk who seek to profit from the ignorance and anger of a populous weary of a pandemic that does not care about their weariness. By convening a grand jury to investigate the heroic men and women whose brilliant work saved millions, DeSantis is following the tired playbook of demagogues and dictators across the ages: Create enemies where none exist, vilify experts whose knowledge threatens their authority, and stigmatize all who dare to dissent by speaking the truth.

         At root, DeSantis seeks to undermine trust. He seeks to undermine trust in science, trust in the decency and goodwill of scientists fighting a deadly pandemic, and trust in our fellow citizens. DeSantis seeks division and discord in place of trust because that is the only path to the White House for a small, petty man with limited ability and no conscience.

         Katelyn Jetelina published a superb essay on trust and science in her Substack newsletter, Musk, Fauci, trust in science, and how to make it survive. Jetelina is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Epidemiology at the University of Texas. She has a Masters in Public Health and PhD in Epidemiology and Biostatistics. In other words, she is an expert of the type that threatens DeSantis, Musk, and Tucker Carlson.

         She starts her essay by noting that Elon Musk’s tweet that said, “My pronouns are Prosecute / Fauci” received 1.17 million “likes,” and 177,000 retweets. She correctly notes that Musk’s tweet is a continuation of the distrust sown by anti-vaxxers who sought to profit off the deaths of gullible Americans during the pandemic. Jetelina cites a PEW research study that shows trust in science declined slightly over the course of the pandemic. Critically,

declines in trust in science were most pronounced among White adults. Americans with higher levels of education expressed more positive views of scientists than those with lower levels of education.

If we compare the responses based on political affiliation, though, the story becomes jarring: confidence in scientists among Republicans dropped significantly. In fact, 1 in 3 Republicans have no confidence at all.

         But the political divide in trust in science masks a deeper issue—the lack of interpersonal trust, i.e., “how much people think they can trust another citizen who they don’t already know.” An Oxford University report demonstrates that trust between citizens is the most predictive factor for Covid deaths globally. Sadly, the US ranks low on interpersonal trust and high on Covid death rate (deaths / million). Jetelina concludes,

We cannot have one group trust public health and another not. This is not how viruses work. Infectious diseases violate the assumption of independence—what one person does directly impacts the person next to them. This is unlike cancer or diabetes, for example. Everyone has to be against a virus, or the virus thrives.

         In addition to convening a criminal investigation, DeSantis is setting up an “anti-CDC” that will contest the alleged “political narratives” published by the world’s most respected infectious disease institute—the Centers for Disease Control. And DeSantis has already inflicted significant damage by appointing an unqualified “Surgeon General” who has published junk science papers that make unfounded claims about the safety of mRNA vaccines. (I discussed the junk science published by the Florida Surgeon General in an earlier newsletter here, in the article, “Rebutting Covid disinformation being spread by Florida.”

         Engendering mistrust between Americans is the platform of the Republican Party. Undermining trust in science is one of the lines of attack in the broader assault on trust, but it is one of the most deadly. Worse, the media’s reporting on DeSantis’s request for a grand jury treats the story as if his actions are within the pale of “politics as usual.” It is not. DeSantis is willing to claw his way over the bodies of his victims to get to the Oval Office. That fact is damning and disqualifying. That is the story that the media is failing to report.

With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Mary Ann (Blom) Berry. To so many, she was a skilled caregiver, a caring friend, and a loyal supporter. To us, she was mom, grandma, sister, and Aunt Hon. She peacefully went to the Lord on May 13 at the age of 81.

Her memory and legacy will live on through those who loved her, including her children, Michael (Cindi) Berry, Kristin (Brian) Kertin, and Karen (Sean) Gardner; her grandchildren, Justin Berry, Madison Kertin, Andrew Berry, Katelyn Kertin, Joseph Gardner, and Ryan Gardner; her brother, Wayne (Susan) Blom; her nephews, Jason Blom and Brian (Michelle) Blom; her great nephew and niece, Lincoln Blom and Monroe Blom; and many extended relatives, including cousins, Margaret Iles, David (Katriya) Carlson, Donald (Sherry) Blom, Doug (Jan) Blom, Richard (Martha) Blom, Daniel (Jeanne) Blom, Jerry (Lorraine) Hyatt, Becky (Johnny) Long, Laura (Troy) Fraebel. Katherine (Hans) Crump-Wiesner, Judith (Vincent) Fala, Margaret Ann Rutledge (G. Stuart Ackman), Albert Turner Rutledge (Anne Marie Carry), and Martha Holden Rutledge (Richard Young). She is preceded in death by her father, Grant Blom, and her mother, Marian Blom.

Mary Ann was born on November 25, 1941, in Natchitoches, Louisiana, and was raised in Terre Haute, Indiana. She lived many places throughout the United States, but spent her retirement years in Noblesville, Indiana.

Mary Ann built a life that was centered in her faith, dedicated to service, and committed to her loved ones.

She grew up attending Bible Center Church in Terre Haute where she established friendships at a young age that continued into her adult years as they attended nursing school together at West Suburban College of Nursing in Oak Park, Illinois. These friendships remained to be some of the most valued relationships in her life up until her passing.

After graduating from nursing school in 1962 she briefly taught younger students at West Suburban before pursuing her Bachelor of Science from Bob Jones University. At Bob Jones, she met, and later married, Herbert Berry. Together, they had three children. She poured her heart into service as a nurse. Early on, she served as a missionary in South Korea, supporting an orphanage and helping to place babies into loving homes. Her nursing career spanned 40 years, including 15 years with the VA in Marion, Indiana. Even in her retirement, she continued working in the healthcare sector part-time with Sunrise Senior Living in Carmel, Indiana until she died – an experience that, in her words, was the best job she ever had.

A lifelong Christian, she regularly participated in prayer circles, bible studies, peer ministry, and as a member of the alter guild. She was an active member of Spirit of Joy Church in Indianapolis, Indiana and a regular volunteer at The Sharing Place.

She was dedicated to her family – dog sitting (even though she didn't particularly like dogs), attending her grandchildren's sporting events, and traveling many miles to help with her children's various moves and home projects.

In addition to her commitment to the church, volunteerism, work, and family – she loved spending time on her hobbies, particularly decorating her home, sewing for children and grandchildren, and tending to her garden.

When we celebrated Mary Ann's 80th birthday in 2021 or attended her Blom family reunion that was 70 years in the making last year, we certainly thought she had decades left to live. Though Mary Ann's earthly life ended earlier than we expected, we know she lived it to the fullest and is now in the heavenly home God has promised.

A Celebration of Eternal Life for Mary Ann will be held at Spirit of Joy Church (3535 Kessler Blvd E Dr, Indianapolis, IN 46220) on May 18 at 1:00pm with visitation immediately preceding, beginning at 11:00am. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that gifts be made in her memory to one of Mary Ann's causes: The Sharing Place (through Lutheran Child and Family Services), Spirit of Joy Church, or Compassion International.

I'm very saddened to hear about Be More Chill closing after such a short run. However I feel it only necessary to say that whilst it is sad for those so deeply touched by the show, let's look at this with a feeling elation and proudness, rather than sadness.

There is still a future for this show to live on, on a personal level. There is two cast albums something we can always listen to. The proudness of the fact that we as fans got it to off-broadway, to broadway just by being great fans who told people about it shared it! That's something to hold dear forever. With a great sense of pride.

Joe Iconis and team will still be making musicals (we have broadway bounty hunter coming this summer!) and likely holding concerts. They will go on to keep making great works for us to enjoy and support. The cast of bmc has such a bright future ahead of them, they will no doubt go on to do roles with that same passion that we once again fall in love with. That's theatre. And that's beautiful.

The fact that the journey this show has taken has allowed younger fans to connect with musical theatre and become theatre fans, make friends etc, is something to be admired and looked upon fondly.

Be More Chill was the broadway debut show for 8 cast members! Incredible!

This is not the end.

It sucks. I get it. It's sad but it was going to happen, but far too soon. But let's be happy is happened. Be proud to be weird, be proud to be you, and continue to support the artists we've grown to love. That's what theatre is about.

[backstagemanaging]

Hi there I saw Be More Chill tonight and it was amazing and Will Roland is blurry because he needed to get home and I can’t blame him because the show was so energy packed and insane (and after 8 hours of rehearsal bc It’s still previews) they all need some rest

Are We Entering A New Political Era? - (Andres Marantz) 

Social Media is Not Self-Expression - (Rob Horning)

“Being yourself” is inherently limiting. It is liberatory only in the sense of freeing one temporarily from existential doubts.

On Body Horror and the Female Body

The female body is a nexus of pain almost by design (that by-now ubiquitous line from Fleabag: “women are born with pain built in, it's our physical destiny”), but it is also potentially monstrous—an object traditionally subjugated, both for its presumed weakness and its perceived threat.

José Andrés Embraces The Chaos | HuffPost Canada Food & Drink

What Andrés was trying to do, though, was far more ambitious. He was trying to make humanitarian aid more human—responsive to the specific needs of people in crisis, rather than determined by massive systems and protocols.

The Golden Age of White Collar Crime

Those intuitions are correct: An entrenched, unfettered class of superpredators is wreaking havoc on American society. And in the process, they've broken the only systems capable of stopping them.

Behold, The Millennial Nuns

America started with a religious narrative—the city on a hill—and once you conceive of it, still, as a society grasping for religion, you see it everywhere.

Dickinson's Hair - Sarah Mesle, LA Review of Books

Specifically, women of color, are working to create the signs of femininity — the beautiful dresses, the meals — against which white women then wonder if they should rebel.

Not only must we continue living in a country that once elected Donald Trump as president; we must also continue living in a country where half the population wanted him to keep the role, a country where Trump may even seek office again.

Stacey Abrams Writes Black Women Into History - Shayla Lawson, Bustle

One reason I stan Abrams’ chick-lit career is how infrequently we get to talk about powerhouse Black women who express themselves in deeply feminine art forms, or about the relationship between art and organizing.

'Bridgerton' Isn't Bad Austen — It's An Entirely Different Genre - Claire Fallon, Huffpost 

In the 1970s, novels typically featured brooding alpha males who took what they wanted sexually ― a narrative device, MacLean argued, for the fictional heroines of the time to have plenty of sex without being seen as loose and deserving of punishment.

'We Act Consciously on the Page and in Life': An Interview with Matthew Salesses | Hazlitt - Zan Romanoff, Hazlitt

And, of course, this is my bias, because all I do is write, and think about writing and talk about writing, but I think everyone who reads fiction should want to understand how it gets made. I loved that this book articulated some things I felt were missing in my own reading practice, in terms of reading mostly fiction by American authors and not understanding much about other narrative traditions.

The controversy over Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie and trans women, explained 

“I think that for people who have been wounded by gendering, it's quite accurate and understandable to say, ‘You don't share the same wound that I share,’” said Susan Stryker, associate professor of gender and women’s issues at the University of Arizona. “Where I start to have a problem with that argument is when it gets used to challenge trans people's access to gendered public space.”

TERFs: the rise of “trans-exclusionary radical feminists,” explained - Katelyn Burns, Vox

Gender-critical feminism, at its core, opposes the self-definition of trans people, arguing that anyone born with a vagina is in its own oppressed sex class, while anyone born with a penis is automatically an oppressor. In a TERF world, gender is a system that exists solely to oppress women, which it does through the imposition of femininity on those assigned female at birth.

Peggy Orenstein's “Boys & Sex” Is Groundbreaking, but Leaves Gaps for Queer Boys - Rachel Charlene Lewis, bitchmedia

Even the title of chapter four, “Get Used to It: Gay, Trans, and Queer Guys” suggests that these boys are something to get used to, something new and other. Her questioning of trans boys’ experiences seems to be largely shaped by her understanding of them as fascinating manipulators of patriarchy; those who were once victim to it when they “were girls” and are now “freed” of it as boys. 

Luster, A Lover's Discourse, and the Portrayal of Whiteness - April Yee, The Paris Review

Whiteness cannot bear to be looked at. See the elaborate costumes of rioters who stormed the Capitol, or the hoods their predecessors wore.

How a Little Book About Hating Men Sparked a Firestorm in France - Sarah Moroz, Dailybeast 

Misandry has a target, but it does not have a list of victims.

A Challenge You Have Overcome - Allegra Goodman, The New Yorker

"1984" Keeping in Mind that I've Never Read It - Ellis Rosen, The New Yorker

Pixar's Troubled "Soul" - Namwali Serpell, The New Yorker

But even recent, more ostensibly race-conscious works (see again “Watchmen” and “Lovecraft Country”) play with this theme in sometimes disturbing ways, as though unable to resist making white people the hero of blackness.

The white desire to get inside black flesh is absolved as an empathy exercise. Blackface gets a moral makeover. It’s telling that, in most race-transformation tales, the ideal is presented as a white soul in a black body.

A Parisian Writes Her Revenge - Lauren Collins, The New Yorker

According to the sociologist Pierre Verdrager, the book’s success marks “a major turning point” in the perception of pedophilia in France. “merci, vanessa springora,” read a sign that the feminist collective Les Colleuses pasted on a wall in Paris last year.

The Generic Latinidad of "In the Heights" - Frances Negrón-Muntaner, The New Yorker

The big point of this big film is to seek comfort in the small, and that also puts limits on the characters’ political imaginations. They assert their dignity “in small ways” and “little details,” trusting that everything will be fine if you just have a “sueñito,” a “little dream.” This belief promotes the fiction of the individual pursuit of happiness, rather than exploring a complex politics that brings broader change. It also links to the class politics of the film. Although the emphasis on hard work is meant to combat stereotypes of laziness, “In the Heights” narratively attempts to resolve deep structural problems with improbable solutions, such as small-business ownership, a lottery ticket, or “paciencia y fe” (“patience and faith”). These ideas are especially hard to take from a Hollywood movie or from Miranda, who, at this point in his career, is hardly an exemplar of thinking modestly, but rather of aspiring to be everywhere doing everything, including politics. He does not seem to believe in el sueñito, but in el sueño grande.

Living with a Visionary - John Matthias, The New Yorker

Of Progressive Bookselling, Past and Future - Lucy Kogler, Literary Hub

Amazon. Who cares? Really, who cares. It came, saw, conquered, exploited, demeaned, demonized, distracted, shat upon its workforce, the postal system, small business owners, and stayed, only to succeed in a most robust way. And so a countervailing (almost anyway) instrument was created: Bookshop.

Reading the Literature of the Bicycle As I Learned to Ride One - Rhian Sasseen, Literary Hub

Something curious happens when you begin to spend an increasing chunk of your time navigating your city in this way. You begin to approach its ecosystem differently, realizing how fundamentally the details you notice might shift depending on what form of transport you happen to be using that day. I find it difficult to daydream on a bicycle in the way that I can daydream on a long walk, but in exchange there is an awareness of the body, and an awareness of the roads, that was previously missing.

The Sexual Double Standards That Led to the Baby Boom—and ‘Girls in Trouble’ - Gabrielle Glaser, Literary Hub

Embracing Imperfection: On Writing in a Foreign Language - Kaori Fujimoto, Literary Hub

I began to focus more on being “me” in my writing. While working on drafts, I looked squarely at simple facts about myself relevant to the work at hand, including being a native East Asian, a person who had an unhappy childhood in a dysfunctional upper middle-class family, a daughter of parents who experienced war, and a woman with no interest in raising a family. I acknowledged the experiences, one by one, heartwarming or heartbreaking, that these qualities had brought me and embraced them. I fully embraced them so that I would recount them in my truthful voice. I have never been perfect, nor can I ever write anything perfect. But I can always be authentic. I realized that being real, rather than flawless, is the best thing I can do for myself not just as a writer, but as a person.

"The next chapter doesn’t start until you turn the page...”

face claim: Carlson Young

full name: Luminata Bianchi

nickname(s): Lumen, Lu-Lu, Lux

pronouns & gender: She/Her; Female

sexuality: Bisexual

birth date: August 21, 1991

birth place: Merrock

time in town: 23 years

housing: Condo in Historic Downtown

occupation: Freelance Journalist; a guest journalist with Merrock Times, currently

family: Single; No offspring

personality: Lumen is very introverted. She would very much prefer spending her time with a good book, rather than others. The woman has a tiny fuse, but instead of blowing up she tends to become sarcastic and withdrawn. Those who are friends with you would attest to her compassionate nature and often refer to her as a “sponge” due to the fact that she absorbs so much - and tends to never forget. She’s loyal above all else, and it might take a nudge but she’s able to let her hair down and have fun once all her work is done.

Up Next: Labels by Katelyn Tarver

Luminata “Lumen” Bianchi was born in Merrock, and though most of the books she read spoke of breaking out of the paper towns of the main characters - she didn’t mind the tiny bubble she called her ecosystem. Growing up with her nose in a book, it was no help that her mother was the town’s librarian. When Lumen did not want to spend time with others, she was often found at a table in the library with a stack of books. Her father was the one who worried about her introverted tendencies, but her mother was always dismissive.

Throughout her younger years, Lumen was a wallflower; Always one to observe and take in the environment as opposed to wanting to insert herself into the scene. This habit carried her through middle school, where she met a group of people who “took her in” sort of speak. They were lively, went out to parties and participated in theatre productions of interesting tales. Instead of staying at home, Lumen actually looked forward to tucking a bookmark in her stories and venturing out into the real world.

Even though Lumen tried her best to stay out of trouble, her friends always managed to drag her into pre-teenage angst scenarios that one would see in a Netflix Original coming-of-age movie. It ranged from her friends giving her a pot brownie without her knowing, to late night roadtrips states-away. One of her favorite things to do was movie-hopping; Watching story after story come to life on the big screen. Looking back, her friends tolerated her rambling of the discrepancies between the books and what they’d just seen, but those were the nights that stuck with her the most.

Lumen didn’t necessarily come into herself until high school. It’s when she experimented with her sexuality, and actually found a life outside of the paper walls she made around herself. For once, she began living on her own terms and wasn’t afraid to get into a bit of trouble for the sake of being right. It was no shocker that the female got a full-ride to Harvard for their journalism program, and it took no one off-guard when the girl couldn’t settle on one specialty.

She took her time traveling after graduating, covering current events and even dabbling in investigative journalism pieces before heading back to Merrock. Recently, she was invited to be a guest journalist at Merrock Times due to her credentials. It’s strange for her to be back where it all began, but she knows there’s another chapter for her here.

C-C-C-C'MON! C-C-C-C'MON! GO! GO!

C-C-C-C'MON! C-C-C-C'MON! GO! GO!

So, as we all know, Be More Chill has ended it's Broadway run. Now, I would much prefer to make a rather long speech about how the music gave me a new perspective on things like social status and stuff, and about 11 how it was incredibly unique as a musical that conveyed the age-old lesson of accepting yourself in a way that was relatable to this generation. I could do all that. But, I'll just leave you all with this fanart I made. I drew this to commerate my favorite musical, sort of like a last hurrah??? (Also, I spent like 6 hours on it so if this flops, I'm gonna cry)

Anyways, I hope you all like it, and I'm really gonna miss Be More Chill!

Bye! :)
