Super Sloth Saves the Galaxy

The Trinidad Police Department quickly pushed back on Combs' allegations in their own post online. The department said Combs' posting had false information and warned that raising false alarm that involves public services, like a municipal water system, constitutes a felony. The department claimed the discoloration of the water was caused by sediment, rust and minerals in old water lines. About a month later, Trinidad police arrested Combs on a felony charge of false alarm or report. 

This is a situation where a good law was used for bad purposes.

Just as it's illegal to yell Fire in a movie theater, it's illegal to spread disinformation about public safety. In this case, she was an investigative journalist with proof, not just a random nutjob yelling about fluoride in the water causing autism.

that elderly man going to the ER because samira is a friend to him. the obese man who lives alone tearing up at genuine human kindness and acceptance. digby being someone who can mourn louie when he seemed so alone. the hospice patient being able to relax once her parents show up. the college student’s parents being able to accept help from someone that looks like them who’s gone through the same thing.

they keep reiterating how you can’t get through things alone. the jewish community needs muslims, the doctors need pharmacists, dana needs robby. there’s all these macro and micro interactions that enforce this thesis. there are cultural, structural, professional, communal, and interpersonal vectors of support that are so necessary.

i know people like to belittle robby’s importance to the show/other characters but like….what do you think that last shot was about? where it’s dana and robby wondering how they’ll get through this? they’re leaning on each other. robby needs dana too, they’re long time coworkers who have developed a friendship.
