My first job in software was QA. I was 19, I was paid $2.50 over minimum wage (yay!) and told “find bugs and problems in this software” and I did. I found lots of them.
My second job in software, I was called out for “disrespect” and “insubordination” for submitting a bug report on code that was written by the boss. It hadn’t occurred to me to check the git blame before submitting the report.
I fucking hate it.

In the fall of 1991, a couple of German hikers climbing the Italian Alps discovered a frozen, thawing human corpse. This seeming tragedy turned out to be a surprising scientific discovery, after radiocarbon dating revealed that the body was at least 5000 years old. The fact that it had been frozen for so long meant that ancient human DNA could potentially be recovered for the first time.

Allow me to quote myself from 2020:
I've been thinking about a zombie movie. Zombies are attacking, but the President only denies that they exist because he can't admit mistakes. Eventually a zombie bites the President, and now he's screaming 'brains! feed me brains!'. So everybody has to go along with it because he's the President, zombie Congress won't impeach him, and zombiism officially does not exist.
I think this is a more realistic zombie movie than all the previous ones.
@cstross indeed. Dan Drezner, a IR professor who wrote ‘Theories of International Politics and Zombies’ has had to reevaluate how actual systems would react in such an event.
@cstross And all this may make the zombies look like the more intelligent species on the planet. At least those appreciate brains 😂.
What COVID19 has taught us about the Zombie Apocalypse is that there will be zombie denialists, zombie virus infection parties, zombie conspiracy theorists, and politicians ruthlessly exploiting lies about zombies to kill off demographics who won't vote for them—and when a vaccine against Z-virus is invented there will be zombie anti-vaxxers (some of them funded by the Kremlin for shits and giggles).

those of some elite Black folks:
