A national culture exempting this (which, sadly, is typical of him) from judgment is unintentionally racist itself. pic.twitter.com/n493NpjFmx — John McWhorter (@JohnHMcWhorter) June 1, 2021

"I think people aren’t returning because restaurant work sucks, is underpaid or provides no upward mobility or benefits. The pandemic has laid bare this reality, and people just don’t want to do it anymore. Ever." Posted: 01 Jun 2021 04:47 AM PDT Said New Orleans chef Jason Goodenough, quoted in "Opinion: Those $300 pandemic checks aren't the only reason restaurant employees might not want to go back to work" (WaPo). Also at WaPo "There's a massive child-care worker shortage and the market can't fix it/Unlike restaurants and other industries, child-care centers can't raise pay to attract and retain workers — and President Biden's American Families Plan doesn't go far enough to address the problem."  Child care is about the last sector in which you want to see high churn and programs scraping for warm bodies.... Child-care programs don't obey the classic rules of supply and demand; many experts consider the sector a failed market.... Unless we want child care to become a luxury good or a low-quality morass, public money is necessary.... Do we really want programs caring for toddlers and their rapidly developing brains to be competing for staff with fast food joints and big box stores...? Do we want market forces determining whether parents have viable, quality options for their care/work arrangements?

Posted: 01 Jun 2021 07:40 AM PDT "He says there are a few areas where foreigners aren't allowed, such as around military sites, 'but you normally just get politely turned out.' Overall, 'people are extremely helpful and nice to people on bikes here.'"  Says the Washington Post, in "What it's like to solo cycle through rural China/Three cyclists share their stories." The most-liked comment over there fixates on the 4th sentence of the article: "Now 40, Rosenberg has a collection of tattoos joining the scars she incurred at 20 years old when a swimming pool explosion shattered her leg." The commenter says: "Wait, what? Swimming pool explosion? You can't just gloss over that." Others: "That's exactly what I said!"/"Maybe a chlorinator mixing incident?? I'm also curious!"/"Yeah I saw that in your other comment. I want know the story in this specific case."  There's a link to an article at the National Library of Medicine: "Explosion risk from swimming pool chlorinators and review of chlorine toxicity." FROM THE EMAIL: DanTheMan writes: "The author doesn't mention that Chinese GPS is purposely distorted, and thus it would be rather hazardous to rely on your phone for navigation. It's s like the old Soviet Union, where accurate city maps were considered state secrets." He links to this:
