Cygnia reacted to Cancer in Coronavirus
Actually, I have had measles, mumps, and rubella ... because I'm old enough to have been infected with each of them before the vaccines were developed, and I got the polio vaccination only a few years after Salk's breakthrough and the disease was still an object of near-supernatural dread. I got measles when I was in kindergarten, and I think it would have killed me if not for mid-20th Century medicine. I tell my students what it's like and what it does, because they don't know, and I think it is because we have lost the horror of the diseases that the anti-vaxx movement is tolerated, as opposed to being identified as a bunch of traitors to the species, and given the choice of get the shot or be shot.

Cygnia reacted to Ragitsu in [Police brutality] American injustice, yet again.
What happens as a result? Schools are turned into prisons. At some of these institutions of education, there are guards (many of whom are armed with firearms), dogs, security fences, metal detectors, cameras, doors that are locked on a timer/schedule, regularly patrolled bathrooms, random locker inspections, mandated identification cards, et cetera. How do you think all of these practices - collectively - affect an individual's mind (i.e., a child) during their formative years?

They'll be in hide mode for another couple of days. The throw is a suggestion for more long-range adjustment.
