I started a blog, softnews33, trying to read more full-length articles, and share the best, to try and break away from Facebook. It’s been hard, because I’m still hooked on Facebook. I also posted too much. The news flood coming in, turned into a “firehose” of news coming out. So, what I’ve done is get…

Every few months, I delete my posts from Facebook. I know FB already got some value from my activities, and want to limit what I give them. So, each month I pick some posts to preserve on this blog.

Sometime around July 8 to 11, this article made the rounds. It is an article that just won’t vanish, and as it’s passed around, the claims about it get more extreme. They completely misread the paper, which does not compare cloth masks to “no masks”. They compare medical masks and cloth masks to standard practice,…

I try to delete posts regularly, and archive some in posts to my own blogs. I know this is destroying the archival aspects of replies, and I guess that sucks, but… I feel like it must be done.
