  1. I know, couple of compliments from you in just a few days. You like how I added that nugget of information about the election, as everyone wants to pretend Trump was the one that came up with stolen elections?
  2. I know most of you are all gung ho on heading into Ukraine and fighting at all costs, but listen to this spin before you agree to it.
  3. idk, right?
  4. But that's the thing, you and I pay attention to those specifics. The average person is upset by the things Trump does, but is also upset at the hypocrisy from the left, and then vote based on the fact that whatever is happening now, is worse than it was before.
  5. I've been busy lately and haven't paid attention to news, but catching up and Saager Enjati is reporting that Abrams specifically stated that everyone needed to be masked before she would enter. Add to the fact that now she's throwing out the race card, "It was shameful how republicans have used black history month reading event to fuel a pitiful and predictable critique." This isn't going to help her win governorship. Like Trump, she still has an outside chance that the courts rule the previous election was stolen from her and she gets to ascend to the throne. Source
  6. Absolutely. And to draw the line a bit more succinctly: - Bernie Sanders hated big Pharma. - Joe Rogan supported Sanders views. - Big Pharma is now the hero. - Joe Rogan didn't change his position, so he's a Trump lover and needs to be shut up.
  7. As someone that believes if you want to win, you win the folks in the middle, this GOP disarray might be the best thing for them. I doubt your vote will be swayed and I really can't think of any GOP candidates i'd vote for at this time as my requirement is basically they need to be vocal in their disowning of Trump. But with that, folks in the middle, the ones that tend to blame who is in charge regardless, seeing the civil war within the GOP might make them think that the GOP realizes it went to far in support of Trump.
  8. If it's that long, there should be an honor system where you find someone in line voting the opposite of you, you handshake on it, and leave. Recent episode of Curb your Enthusiasm with this was great.
  9. Granted not from the senate, but Rep Ro Khanna stated a few days ago that there are already 60 votes in the Senate for the Electoral act and it will be passed before the mid-terms. Now a voting rights act, there isn't bipartisanship on it, but I wish they would just pass some blanket law. In the name of coming together, just model the new law on New York's, that way Georgia gets more restrictive voting they even have now in the name of security, but Democrats feel good about saving democracy.
  10. I'm 'meh' with this album. Her debut album was really good, the follow up was decent. Check out her leading the band Buffalo Clover, that was fantastic.
  11. Give Twitter enough time, let's say by tomorrow especially if this makes national news, and you'll see it. My thoughts remain the same. I'm not calling for people to purposely run people over, but i'm willing to look the other direction if it does happen.
  12. If he would have simply said he removed his mask for a quick picture, that's one thing. But c'mon, "I held my breath". I guarantee you that if there was a live camera on his communications director when they heard about that response it could have been posted on /r/watchpeopledieinside. Can we get this disinformation post removed from this site? This is dangerous and could lead to people choosing not to get vaccinated. If the moderators refuse than Archie is leaving this platform and will require MWG to remove all posts as well.
  13. To note, 1000 vaccinated adults will spread less virus than a mix of 1000 adults of mixed status for the reasons you state. Children have shown not to be affected like adults with this disease, resulting in more asymptomatic cases and overall less duration for them too. That is something that the anti-mask for school kids point out that gets screamed over with stats that are focused on adults. If your argument is that they should be masked up, as should all adults regardless of status, that's at least consistent. But this is the comment that struck a nerve with me, "Going to a restaurant is not needed to survive". To that restaurant, wiping out 30 percent of the population that can even go to them, might be needed for them to survive.
  14. No, he's saying you can look at China's issues separately and judge them on their own merits. One can be good, despite something else being bad. All that said, I contend that if the US flipped the Obesity rate with China or Canada, and nothing else changes, those other countries have more Covid deaths (per capita) than the US.
  15. My brother's facility can get fined if their staff are wearing a non-fitted N95 mask which they do for staff that has to work with Covid patients. But if you don't work in that area and want to wear an N95, nope, take it off and wear the surgical mask. They finally got it in writing that staff can wear a non-fitted kn95 or n95 if they wear a surgical mask over it. But hey, walk into a restaurant with a cloth mask and take it off as soon as you sit down and all is good. Or watch the biggest stars that are screaming about Rogan on their twitter feed when they are at the Superbowl next week. They'll proudly wear their masks as they walk in, only to be maskless the whole game because they have a bowl of popcorn in front of them that they are occasionally eating. That's always the case with both parties, and yes, it's asinine. They lean towards a certain way of doing something until they realize it doesn't work for one specific thing they want to do. I complained about Whitmer late in 2020 when she spent the beginning saying she couldn't leave it up to the localities and had to have statewide lockdowns and restrictions. Eventually changes that to zones after the realization of the damage it did to areas that weren't having trouble and by the end of 2020 she was lying, stating she had no power to enact any restrictions at the state level and letting the localities deal with it. I'm not sure what you saw in Buddha's post that you felt was wrong. He's not saying vaccinations are bad. He's simply stating that at this point, we know you can still be vaccinated and spread it. I didn't see anything from him indicating that vaccines don't protect you from the virus.
  16. She unfortunately has other health concerns, so it's even more important for her to be vaxxed. Going forward though, she won't be getting vaccinated for multiple things on the same day. We'll just space them out and her doctors believe that will be fine.
  17. Again, why? It's the left that is more overprotective right now, but isn't it the left that follows science as well? If so, wouldn't they know that in children, the flu is actually worse than Covid?
  18. Her Docs say it's very rare and even than, a severe form of it is rarer yet. My wife is just special like that, lol.
  19. I don't even know if you can blame it on his incompetence. There are just too many safeguards in place to allow him to do what he tried to do. Obviously that leads to the concern about what did he learn about those safeguards and what will he do next time.
  20. No one knows how long to wait. I posted before about this after trying to find a bunch of resources and found anywhere from 9 days to 90 days being recommended. Apparently any research into this question could lead unvaccinated people into deciding not to get vaccinated as well. So obviously it's not worth investigating. Meanwhile i'm on week 5 of my fully vaccinated wife being on 'sedation' levels of hydroxyzine, along with other medication because of her reaction to the covid booster and flu shot at the same time. The doctors specifically stated that she may have had Covid just prior to the vaccinations which may have played a part into putting her immune system into overdrive.
  21. We weren't close to a coup, but it was definitely a coup attempt.
  22. On the Spotify/Neil Young thing, I don't want to get political, so i'll keep it quick. I'm glad he's directing people away from long form interviews like Joe Rogan and over to Amazon for his music. Amazon is the epitome of American greatness and everything I think of when I listen to Neil Young lyrics. There is a part of me that is a little upset that he's fine with having his music on a platform that is cool with Chris Brown and R. Kelly, but then I think about it, and what old school rocker hasn't nailed an underage girl or beat the crap out of a girlfriend. Need to take into account his age and give him a pass.
  23. My kids would play Post Malone and he was one of the best of what they listen to. That's not high praise. As he's done some covers, I'm not sure if he just loves experimenting or if this is a targeted marketing ploy to open me up to him more, but I will say this, I will pay attention to his next album.
  24. I can understand the unhappiness towards the right in regards to the vaccination and Covid as a whole. I've been vocal on this site about how much that sucks, but why are you worried about being around unvaccinated people? You are vaccinated, right? At this point, a person that is unvaccinated it mostly just a risk to themselves and almost a null risk against vaccinated people.
