Shit, Biłes is hurt.
If only the Aussies could have gotten a single goal. They could have saved us from the inevitable smugness that’s coming from the USWNT. Gird your loins, boys. It’s coming. Hey, a swimmer from Alaska won a gold medal. It looks like the Packers are gonna pay Aaron Rodgers enough to make him believe they care. Nobody on the Dodgers wants Trevor Bauer back. And now Oklahoma State is acting like aTm, and is bitching about their own big brother. BREAKING: Simone Biles is hurt. And that’s sports.

You could always just quit. I’m sure there’s plenty of places you could go work that don’t defend themselves vigorously when they feel like they’ve been wrongfully attacked. They won’t last long, but you’re free to go anyway.
Nice cherry-picking. You’ll note they didn’t get much from the myriad teachers who did their job all last year in districts that better understand the (minimal at most) risk to kids the more deadly original strain posed. Also, where’s the deaths if this delta thing is so freaking terrifying? Are we waiting two more weeks again?
A massive explosion at a German chemical plant causes massive destruction. As a resident of the Houston area, I know what that can be like.

The union wins. The politicians win. The taxpayers and citizens take it in the shorts. But don’t worry. It could have been worse, I guess.
Please don’t do this. You’re just gonna drive more people to Texas, Arizona, Montana and other sane places.

Enjoy this. The organ is just awesome.

“I still can’t believe this slimy fuck hasn’t been thrown out of office yet.”
Yes, you do.
No, I really don’t. He’s got the wokesters going after him for being a creep. He should have been done after his nursing home grandma-killing shit. And he’s generally an asshole. He could have been swept aside and literally everybody on both sides would have claimed victory and that would have been that. How he survived is beyond me.
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the 49th president of the United States, Andrew Cuomo.
Not funny.
Not funny.
Not funny.
“and literally everybody on both sides would have claimed victory ”
That’s the last thing each side wants.
And the Biden DOJ has dropped its inquiry into Cuomo over the nursing home deaths. Prominent Democrats are protected, it is known.
It’s amazing what Tammany Hall bred into these people.
There was no dem able to get enough support for themselves, ergo, Cuomo will not be touched.
Apparently he is still useful to the Machine. If the Machine wanted him out, he’d be gone.
Thx, sloopy. But you could have had “you could just quit” as the tagline for the teachers union story, too.
Also, good song. Too bad they were fucking commies.
Are there any British acts from that era who weren’t?!
No. I mean probably not*, but rest assured that many of them now will be privately saying all kinds of unwoke things totally oblivious as to why they offend their younger acquaintances and family members.
*I imagine there were some neo-nazi punk bands to fill out the moron continuum, but fortunately no particularly successful ones. Then again, when history is rewritten again, even bands like The Jam might be re-cast as fascist sympathizers, because as hard as you might try, you can never guess just how horrible the new stupid is going be.

The petition also cited an internal statement by Frances Townsend, a former George W. Bush administration counterterrorism official and Activision Blizzard’s executive vice president of corporate affairs, in which she reportedly described the lawsuit’s allegations as “factually incorrect, old and out of context.”

Grandma what was it like ?
“San Mateo County — where 88.6% of the county’s age 12 and over population has been fully vaccinated against COVID-19 — is the first Bay Area county to issue an indoor mask mandate stricter than what California and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidance currently recommends.
Starting Monday, all residents — including vaccinated ones — will have to wear masks inside county offices, clinics and other publicly accessible facilities because of the spread of the more contagious delta variant. Masks are still only recommended inside other indoor places, such as grocery stores, restaurants, gyms and theaters.”
88% + who already had it has to be herd immunity.
“In a news release, the county said the order was issued to “take action now to protect younger children and overall public health as cases rise.””
That’s a dumbfuck reason.
It is herd immunity for the alpha variant. But by vaccinating everyone and giving them narrow immunity, they created an escape route for variants for which the vaccines are ineffective. This was predicted.
See also: every flu vaccine.
The flu vaccine is a bit different because there are so many endemic types, each year they try to predict which ones they should try to prevent.
From I read, the vaccines work on the delta variant as well.
It suppresses the worst symptoms.
But the fact remains that the explosion in the delta variant prevalence is due to the natural selection of the virus in narrowly tailored immunity. Therefore, it stands to reason that more variants are coming and lets just hope they are even less virulent.
I eagerly await the Omega variant. That should put an end to all this nonsense.
As long as I get my green velour jacket and can shoot zombies from the balcony of my brownstone, it’s all cool.
They’re
vampiresnocturnal albino mutants, you poseur!“But the fact remains that the explosion in the delta variant prevalence is due to the natural selection of the virus in narrowly tailored immunity. ”
That seems to be too much of a claim. Natural selection depends on mutation.. Viruses don’t replicate as much in vaccinated people. Also India has a low vaccination rate “25% of the Indian population has received at least one dose. 7% of the Indian population has received both doses.”
And bacteria don’t replicate as much in people on antibiotics, but you still get selection for antibiotic resistant forms.
Regardless, naturally acquired COVID immunity to going to be broader than a vaccine based on a specific version of the spike protein. Narrower immunity provides that escape path for variants.
Worth reading:
https://37b32f5a-6ed9-4d6d-b3e1-5ec648ad9ed9.filesusr.com/ugd/28d8fe_266039aeb27a4465988c37adec9cd1dc.pdf
I read that.
The difference with antibiotics is that they are usually given to someone after they have an infection. So they already have large population of bacteria.
“Regardless, naturally acquired COVID immunity to going to be broader than a vaccine based on a specific version of the spike protein.”
I agree.
Fortunately the delta variant is much less dangerous than original virus. Which is why there is no jump in deaths or hospitalizations, and why nobody is talking about that.
There has been an uptick in my newsfeed about long term effects of the ‘vid. Including but not limited to fatigue, loss of IQ points, aches, pains, heart conditions, lung conditions, strokes, stroke like symptoms, general strokeness, death…
It’s like a buffet of symptoms tailored to anyone with generalized anxiety disorder.
Or aging.
Anecdotal evidence, etc., but my wife is a PT in a long-term care facility. Pretty much all the residents had the ‘vid at some point. Many of the survivors show a mental deficit she calls “the fog”, they just aren’t as cogent as they used to be.
Based on disconnected data from the news and zero expertise, I theorize this is the result of vascular damage, caused by the spike protein, resulting in poor oxygen supply to the brain.
Absolutely the case.
And there’s plenty of anecdotal evidence that people are experiencing the same from the vaccines, as the current ones are nothing but spike proteins.
Quite a few doctors are treating both with ivermectin and fluvoxamine.
It’s getting hard to find invermectin now. Sold out at every farm store around in every size and type, but I finally got a big bottle online to backup what I already had on hand.
Pound for pound, the injectable for cattle matches the same oral dosing as the FLCCC protocol. $75 gets you a enough invermectin to prophylacticly treat 15 people for one year.
Do you have a reference on dosage using the agricultural versions? I’m considering going that route for prophylaxis. I have a prescription for outpatient therapeutic but I’m having difficulty getting the scrip for preventative.
The “horse paste dewormer” still seems fairly available. Haven’t seen horsie injectables. What’s the protocol there? Need to jab yourself?
Just going off the included drug information sheet in the package. For the 1% Ivermectin “each mL of Ivermectin injection contains 10 mg of invermectin”. Then I match up that up to the FLCCC protocol, which shows 10 mg of invermectin is needed for 110 pounds. The FLCCC protocol has a chart so you can scale up as needed.
No, it’s an injectable for livestock. If I was following the FLCCC protocol, I would take it orally. The injectable is just a big liquid bottle of invermectin.
I’ve always used to prevent heartworm in my dogs. Just convert it to their weight (which is a completely different scale) and drop it in their food.
Fortunately the delta variant is much less dangerous than original virus.
But we have SO MANY CASES.
The vaccines don’t work.
They have admitted as much.
Simone Biles didn’t deserve to advance and now she has realized it. It’s the French Exit for her.

But I heard he really…SUCKED ON THE ORGAN!
I served with “Big Organ” Morgan in Okinawa. When anyone gave him guff about his name, he’d say “I’m talking about my heart. What did you think I meant?”
He was a little guy who was very funny.
Good morning! Good morning! Today is a bright shining day and even though I read all the links (I really did) I am not even a little bit perturbed. We are sliding into a hellscape of dystopia right on schedule. Isn’t life in the 21st century a treat!
Almost zero masking, here. I’ll take the small victories for now. Every Government building is all about the muzzle.
I knew a work buddy that lived in his car. He said the only thing he would never part with was his vintage Hammond.

I don’t know enough about them. He was about twenty years younger than me so your idea of vintage might vary. Looked to be about 2X4X3-1/2. He did drive a hatchback.
“It’s coming down to personal choice and personal responsibility and really letting people decide if they believe in the science or not,” said Phillips, who teaches at Coronado Elementary School in the Amarillo Independent School District. “That is extremely irresponsible and really, to me, poor leadership from the governor to allow folks to decide whether or not they will endanger the lives of others. It’s just extremely disappointing.”
You have confused religion with SCIENCE!, bub. You “believe in” religion. You understand science.
Fucking doomsday cultists.
“Beat me harder, massa!”
-this idiot 200 years ago
It’s a religion. It’s evangelical and it seeks to punish the wicked.
“It’s coming down to personal choice and personal responsibility…”
They co-opted and redefined the phrase ‘personal responsibility,’ to mean ‘assuming responsibility for the fears of others.’
Now do the ‘personal choice’ of women who have abortions, and how others view that.
“My body, my choice” has become my go-to response when my refusal to get vaccinated is questioned.
Heh. I think that specific wording, and you aren’t the only one making that claim, is a huge part of what is driving the left bonkers over this.
Phillips is vaccinated and will be wearing a mask when school starts Aug. 17
He understands that science thing.
Adrian Reyna, who teaches high school history to eighth graders in San Antonio, said he will be wearing KN95 masks to school, wiping down desks and cleaning his classroom between classes, keeping his windows open throughout the semester and trying to space out desks as much as possible with full classes. If cases increase to a certain percentage in the community, he will wear the plastic pod he used last year during the height of the pandemic.
…is he…?
Reyna, who is vaccinated, said he will also educate his students about the benefits of getting vaccinated, because they are eligible.
“Even though I’m vaccinated, I’m still concerned, because I am high-risk, and my parents are very high-risk,” said Spurrier, who is president of the Arlington chapter of the Texas State Teachers Association.
This is a little mean, but oh well:
high risk
Bachelor’s in Sociology from University of North Texas
Master’s in Secondary Education with emphasis in social studies from University of North Texas
PhD in Derp
Im liking the 2X-chin but wood not.
Hasn’t that been shown to be even more worthless than masks?
Classrooms?
So, Phillips believes the vaccines are ineffective, because he doesn’t understand science.
“You can still get infected after vaccination” is one of those things that changes status depending on who is saying it and what they’re pushing for. If you’re advocating mandatory vaccination and more COVID restrictions, it’s fine. But if you’re saying it as a criticism of the government’s COVID response, it’s a crazy and dangerous conspiracy theory that you shouldn’t even be allowed to say.
It’s like Schrodinger’s vaccine, it’s both effective and ineffective depending on the political agenda of the person observing it.
There is what looks to be an interesting article in the Wall Street Journal about science and lost credibility. Unfortunately, it’s paywalled.
What’s the title of it?
They excepted a bit of it on Instapundit if it’s the one I am thinking of.
“If one person is sick and refuses to mask, then they can spread that contagion to as many people as they come in contact with, and it will be their choice to do that or not,” he said.
I hate to beak it to you, Shirley, but your Holy Snot Rag isn’t going to protect anybody from anything.
Kill yourself now, and spare us from your trepidatious sniveling.
Kill yourself now
I suggest using the Holy Hand Grenade
Well, they can’t spread it to vaccinated people, unless you’re saying the vaccines are ineffective. And if they spread it to someone who chose not to be vaccinated, that’s the risk they chose to accept. I fail to see anyone else’s interest in this.
Are we back to the masks protect other people again? I’ve lost track of how many times the masks were supposed to protect the wearer versus the people around the wearer.
Of course never mention that there is no data indicating that masking has stopped or even slowed the transmission of the virus. And don’t mention that data regarding the incidence of cases v. masking mandates seems to show masks have no effect.
Why do you hate science?
Well, Nancy, if you find your job conditions unsafe, quit.
There are always positions available in roofing or hanging steel.
I hear there are good paying jobs installing solar panels.

Yes, she can work for the same wages as an Indian or Filipino coder. I approve.

Texas teachers fear Covid surge as school year nears
There is a coronavirus “surge” every year. It is called “flu season”.
And the flu has disappeared because the PCR test as it’s being run does not distinguish Covid from seasonal flu and colds, which is why the inventor of the test has said it’s not useful or appropriate for diagnosing the presence of an illness. All of the seasonal flu case are likely being labeled Covid.
I need to read some more on this as I don’t fully understand the issue. I get how the over-cycling of the PCR test leads to false positives, but the conflation of separate diseases is not clear to me. Any references?
I just saw an article earlier this morning, I’ll see if I can find the link. From what I recall it mostly boils down to recycling and ending up with protein particles from the virus without being able to effectively distinguish which virus the particles are from.
Here’s something, but not the article I read earlier, which I can’t seem to locate again.
CDC withdraws fraudulent PCR testing protocol
I’m on track for having a very aggravating day. ?
Please don’t be aggravated.
They are all aggravating when you wake up a little bit hungover. I pay the price just to maintain some sanity.
If only there was a way to convince people that they needed to move away from TX to CA “where they take health and science seriously.”
That should be a campaign.
Unfortunately, it would only work if there were jobs there to move to.

“We have to get back to work. We have to get back to work, and we have to get back to work now, and we have to spread this message or we’re going to spread the virus,” he said before specifically expressing the desire to knock on doors and drive unvaccinated people to get the jab.
“And we have to get in those communities, and we have to knock on those doors, and we have to convince people, and put them in a car and drive them and get that vaccine in their arm.

I think that’s where we should be because we can’t to waste our breath on people that are just not going to change. You know, the logic they keep going back and saying, well, it’s my freedom or whatever. I’m free. Your kid is not free to give other kids meningitis in schools. Got to take a vaccine to do that. You got to take a vaccine to be employed. So what is the big deal? All these people are saying I don’t want to put this stuff in my body and out drinking on the weekend and putting other substances in their bodies way worse than a vaccine. Come on, let be real.”

Stand by for an important announcement from the Ministry of Truth
Jen Psaki, the White House press secretary, said the Biden administration didn’t want to pick a fight with an outlet like Fox News after President Donald Trump made undermining the media a tenet of his politics.
Psaki defended the Biden administration’s decision to put representatives on the conservative network — in contrast with the Obama administration’s treatment of Fox as an adversary — during a recent interview with the Snapchat news show “Good Luck America.” She argued that Fox’s audience was too important to ignore and that fighting with the media would be a distraction from more important issues.
“Getting in a fight with Fox News at this point in time for the administration isn’t particularly constructive coming off of an administration that completely destroyed trust in media, trust in institutions,” Psaki said. “That’s not the fight we want to fight right now, right? We want to fight a fight about getting the pandemic under control and things that actually impact people’s lives.”
an administration that completely destroyed trust in media
I think you’ve got that ass backwards, Red. The media destroyed their own credibility with their shit-flinging-howler-monkey antics which began on election night 2016. Trump was merely the catalyst which induced them to expose themselves for what they are.
The US media hasn’t been trustworthy since the Remember the Maine days.
…getting the pandemic under control and things that actually impact people’s lives.

What are “civil liberties”? – ACLU
Racism is foundational to the Second Amendment and its inclusion in the Bill of Rights.
Learn more from experts Carol Anderson and Charles Howard Candler on this episode of the At Liberty podcast.
The episode, whose introductory page bears the title, “Do Black Americans Have the Right to Bear Arms?” and states that, “Anti-Blackness determined the inclusion of the Second Amendment in the Bill of Rights, and has informed the unequal and racist application of gun laws,” blames “unequal enforcement of gun laws” on “intrinsic anti-blackness.”
In the episode, Anderson continues to highlight the alleged racism inherent in the Bill of Rights’ Second Amendment.
“Sitting in our bill of rights is the right to control black people, is the right to destroy the rights of black people and that is so fundamentally just inherently wrong,” Anderson said.
Dear ACLU,
Black people are human individuals with rights that are protected by the BoR just like everyone else.
Sincerely,
RS
Dear RS,
Black people deserve special protection because how can they possibly take care of themselves without our help?
Sincerely,
The totally, really, really, absolutely not racist ACLU and White Left writ large
This, to me, is the most insulting shit ever. A bunch of fucking pretentious rich honkey women pretending if they don’t get to peddle insane things on the road to transforming us into the delusional belief that marxist society will finally result in an utopian system – after a century of failure, over 120 million bodies, and 3 billion people held in bondage & misery – in the name of justice, telling minorities they would be back in chains without these cuntes saving them from their own stupidity…
How fucking evil do you have to be to actually think you are the hero because you pretend to come to the rescue of people you deem to be incapable of doing basic shit for themselves? is there any more despicable way of insulting someone than to tell them they can’t make it without your help?
Hey, if they want to rehabilitate Justice Taney and his Dred Scott decision – who am I to stop them?
“The vigilantism of widespread gun ownership puts Black Americans in an especially vulnerable position”
Man, the ACLU is truly fucking fucked. How the hell are those two things conflated?
Poor Stinky! I hope you have a happy and healthy spawn that weighs at least 7 Courics.
Wow. That’s a hot take. The entire idea of pushing back against the 2nd was to ensure that Black former slaves couldn’t defend themselves. Where did these people go to school? Did they go to school?
It’s not that they’re stupid and or ignorant, they’re just lying to their supporters and prospective donors who either don’t know any better or demand to hear what they want to hear. IOW, it’s a grift.
It’s always a grift now. It’s fucking exhausting. I drove past a Greek Orthodox Church the other day that had 215 ribbons tied to their handrails. That sect had nothing to do with what happened at the Residential Schools. A Coptic Christian Church was burned down just south of Vancouver. That one was started by refugees fleeing Islamists in Egypt. People are hateful and so very stupid.
Just think of them as “Please Don’t Burn Me Down, I’m Not a Catholic Church” ribbons. And douchebags in Canada are obviously bandwagoning on the church burning bullshit.
The parishioners didn’t hang them there. Victim-mongers did.
They’re so ignorant about the history that they seem to think that Christian = Raper. I’m done with this shit. My flag at work is still flying at half-mast. That should be amended.
“My flag at work is still flying at half-mast”
I thought you worked with a pretty little thing and there are pills to help with that
Sometimes my fellow Christians scoff when I say that the west is in the midst of transforming from a secular/pagan culture to an anti-christian culture. This church burning deal is a foreshadow of things to come sometime in the next few years across many more cities and countries.
Marxist totalitarian academia teaches a ton of this sort of insanely obvious idiocy.
I’m not surprised the the Anti-Civil Liberties Union would side with hoplophobes.
On the blizzard thing as opposed to some years ago I find myself less inclined to believe allegations on social media without some clear evidence…
Off course in the corporation I work in I do not really see these things. At least not in my department. The US may be different.
Then again my opinion on the qualifications of HR people in general is rather low.
HR goes quickly downhill once they include a diversity officer. After that point you are no longer an employee. You are a statistic to be used for a cause.
In Romania HR is not woke yet just… I dunno very rigid and limited in using their own procedures in the best way…
I remember waaaay back (WotLK? Cataclysm?) when there was a feminist revolt over the sexist “Shake Your Bunny Maker.” And then of course when Pandaland came out much fury over sexist Ji.
I miss playing that game. Maybe in 2023 I’ll have time again.
I guess there’s still people who believe HR is there to help them instead of protecting the company and senior execs. We could add pushing CRT to the role description now too.
If the conduct was unlawful, where are the myriad police reports?
To Be Fair, lawful or not I find making overt sexual comments or excessive comments related to appearance about coworkers in the office in poor taste and were I in management I would frown upon that as it can affect eh work environment.
Completely agree. Just found it funny they actually thought HR would go against the company in any scenario.
look as long as internal procedure are technically respected…
HR will if there are lawsuits on the horizon. HR is strictly about liability, and that is one thing that motivates them outside the corporate chain of command. Keeping the C suite from doing stupid shit is a prime motivator, as they worry about being out of a job. DIE BS is usually a separate department and is in place to keep the company out of nuisance lawsuits.
That is the whole story.
Sorry, liability and compliance.
You shouldn’t have to go running to the police to get HR to do their fucking job.

With all the breathless “But, but, she’s a FORMER SENATOR!!” reporting on this incident it’s a little hard to feel much sympathy in spite of the fact that, yes, anyone getting robbed is a bad thing.

Hands down the best part of my 2 years in Miami was the fact that South Beach is top-optional. Most of the time the locals didn’t care and just went to the beach like normal. However, during Spring Break, drunk college girls couldn’t start waving their tits around fast enough.
I remember in particular two well-endowed vixens repeatedly picking out 40ish dad-types from whom to ask recommendations for restaurants and things to do, all while purposely and brazenly squeezing them together and showing off just to see how awkward and uncomfortable they could make him. Good times.
Otherwise living in Miami sucked.
So you took your talents away from South Beach?
Tragic I know. However, Miami isn’t the only place in the world with boobs; but it does have a terrible climate, outrageous traffic, overpriced everything and some of the most generally unhappy people I’ve ever encountered.
Had to get out of there.
So you are racist to Cubans? Are Cubans even a race? DO you also hate Mark Cuban?
If you don’t include the phony “Hispanic” category as a race, Miami is the whitest big city in the US.
even whiter than Portland?
I stand corrected: Portland beats it by 3%.
They do love to execute their power. It can be pretty uncomfortable but I’m sure you’ll be fine. There’s always a bird in the air or a neat bug to look at.

Are we back to the masks protect other people again? I’ve lost track of how many times the masks were supposed to protect the wearer versus the people around the wearer.
The mask denotes you as a True Believer, pure in spirit and obedient to the Holy Priesthood of SCIENCE!
The plague observes this, and passes you over in search of a heathen.
I’m tempted to hang masks on my doorposts and lintels now.
So, lamb’s blood on the mask as an alternative sign when you’re out and about?
Yep I am back to slinging garlic across my chest and hanging onions from my belt.
Math is racist.
Jefferson County Public Schools in Louisville, Kentucky will host a year-long professional training program on anti-racist mathematics.
The program’s goal is to “eliminate curricular violence and innovate mathematics education” through “anti-bias, anti-racist, and racially equitable practices.”
Educators will engage in monthly sessions with Lateefah Id-Deen, assistant professor of mathematics education at Kennesaw State University, which focus on topics like white supremacy in mathematics, racial trauma in mathematics, and creating anti-racist lesson plans.
When I think “order of operations”, I definitely think “white-supremacy”. . .
*violent urges rising*
“Violence” has lost all meaning, just like “racist”.
Public school is child abuse.

This isn’t even common core, which was bad enough.
Common core is explicitly antiracist.
Maybe now, but that’s not how it started.
But it does illustrate how the common core program structure left the door open for an explicitly political takeover.
It wasn’t antiracist enough.
I look forward to civil engineering projects designed by a generation that has not been taught white supremacist math.

Hah! I saw a long-haired young fellow wearing what appeared to be knee socks, breeches and low-slung leather shoes at my bank last night. “Are you in a play?” I asked. He told me to fuck off. So I guess this is a thing now…
should have pulled his underpants over his head
“Do you get wedgies on a frequent basis?”
I think he was in a play. Good call, Festus.
I shit you not. Pantaloons, long grey stockings and mid-back curly hair. He looked like a Royalist to me. Good on him for his response though.
He prolly thought you were trying to do what that diplomat in Mexico kept doing to them ladies, Festus, and he was not into that…
Nah, he knew I was mocking his appearance. It was just so fucking bizarre,
As someone who has dressed in out of the ordinary clothes, you should expect people to look at you and notice. That’s kind of the point.
Yutes are dressing weird these days. Especially the criminals.

Medicine is racist
Most U.S. hospitals are still disproportionately treating white patients for common services, a report published Tuesday shows, despite serving racially and ethnically diverse communities.
A U.S. News & World Report analysis of federal data from 2015 through 2019 compared more than 1,400 hospitals to the racial or ethnic makeup of each hospital’s surrounding community.
Researchers found racial and ethnic minorities were underrepresented among patients in roughly 4 out of 5 hospitals in the country. This is the first time U.S. News included a health equity analysis in its annual Best Hospitals rankings. Although the health equity component was not factored into the rankings, they can be found at the bottom of each hospital’s profile.
“Health is incredibly tied to social factors which include economic factors and language barriers, and there are enormous disparities,” said Ben Harder, managing editor and chief of health analysis at U.S. News. “The health of our populations is based on factors that should not have an impact on health and that’s what inequity is.”
What the world needs now is more race baiting.
More white people go to doctors than black people…doctors must be not treating black people.
How do people think like this?
They’re liars and/or stupid, that’s all.
The next step is “we need to limit access for white people”. I do think people really are that stupid.
THE HIPPOCRATIC OATH IS RACISSSSSS!!!!!

For the most part January 6th was hilarious and I’m tired of pretending it wasn’t. Who is this Pelosi commission for? What could we possibly learn that wasn’t already beaten to death on Trumps 2nd impeachment? Are they just that vicious? I guess so.
They need it to usher in Patriot Act 2.0 is my view.
Also it will provide for the lack of evidence currently that federal courts are dragging out with the people sitting in jail.
It’s to keep the media distraction machine occupied while everything else is going to shit.
Yes they are that vicious. They’re starting with the conclusion that this was a widespread conspiracy to overthrow the government, and they’ll go after everyone who is even tangentially related. It’s the perfect excuse to go after their political enemies.
They need to reinforce the opinion they assigned the lemmings that vote for them, and this is a medium to provide them with this shit. It’s no different from the reaction the idiots get when someone reports a fake incident of all the things these people believe happen all day long, and all the time, until the truth comes out and you find out the narrative is not met or the thing is made up. French actor Jussie Smollet redux.

I saw a FB post that said “…the IGF publicly decided not to give Simone Biles points for her routines beyond a certain level of difficulty because they’re worried about the other world-class athletes hurting themselves trying to match her.”
I’m seeing lots of squealing from the usual lefty suspects, but it’s still a trashy thing to do. It’s like that French ice skater Surya Bonaly who did standing backflips that they outlawed. If you can do it, why shouldn’t it be judged fairly? That’s how you get better gymnasts and skaters.
Judged sports are not sporting.
Citius, Altius, Fortius
… Communiter
I think the big problem is she failed to execute them anyway.
I haven’t seen anything she did except her balance beam routine and she wobbled a couple of times.
She went completely off the mat during floor exercise qualifying, and wobbled a few of her other landings.
And the judges didn’t penalize her for it by the book. She got better execution scores than her teammates, who at least stayed on the mat. It was the most obvious case of rigged judging I can recall.
She was just off for this competition, I think.
The more I think about it, the very notion of “greater than” vs “lesser than” is unacceptable. Let us embrace all quantities equally.
We should never discriminate based on outdated formulaic notions. Just because the strength of a beam “calculates” as insufficient to support a load, we must not discard it as worthless. We must give it a chance. And, if the roof collapses, well then, that’s not the beam’s fault.
All numbers are equal!
Well, that would solve all the equal pay complaints…

I am hacking up a lung like a 100-Pack-year smoker. Is this the WuFlu? Am I gonna die?????
100-Pack-year smoker – that is not much smoking
Coughs are unpleasant though try some organic unpasteurized honey and herbal tea
No a pack-year is smoking a pack a day for a year. So 100 pack-years is like smoking 3 packs a day for 33 years and 4 months. That’s a lot of smoking. I quit somewhere between 7 or 8 pack-years.
I thought he was saying by comparison to Europeans who smoke more than that.
It’d be a stupid prize to win but I wonder just how far a smoker could go. I imagine you’re mostly tar on the inside at 200 pack-years.
hmm I never heard the phrasing pack-year used like that
It’s an American smoking cessation metric. Like BMI but for smokers instead of fatties.
If those are your symptoms, may as well start smoking. The only reason I quit (7 years ago) was due to price.
They’re $7/pack here for Marlboro. I think Jugsy said NYC has them at something near $15/pack.
Possibly and no.
Just take it easy, if you’re really worried try to find a Dr. that will give you ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine. You’ll probably feel crappy for a week or two and when you get better, you’re immune!

A union that represents emergency workers with the New York City Fire Department (FDNY) is speaking out against New York Mayor Bill de Blasio’s (D) new rule that requires all city employees to either get vaccinated against COVID-19 or submit to weekly testing.
De Blasio on Monday announced that all city employees would be required to get vaccinated or begin undergoing weekly tests beginning by Sept. 13. This rule applies to the police department, school employees and all other agencies within the city government.
“FDNY EMS Local 2507 is strongly opposed to these new workplace mandates being forced upon all 4,300 of our members by Mayor de Blasio. These must be a subject of collective bargaining. The city and the mayor cannot simply disregard the civil liberties of the workforce,” the union said in a statement.
The union said it is “troubling” that this requirement was announced while none of the coronavirus vaccines have been granted full approval by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
——-
“Our members at FDNY EMS are highly trained medical professionals, yet they continue to be disrespected and disregarded by city leadership, which believes we can feed our families on poverty wages,” the union said. “Instead of dictating more royal edicts upon workers, the mayor should instead concentrate on providing more support for the women and men who serve as New York City’s medical first responders.”

It’s more than a bit interesting that all the Science! true believer types haven’t been able to put forth any actual, you know, science behind their claims that masks in a non clinical setting do a damn thing. The only randomized control trial that I have seen specifically related to masking and the Vid is the Danish one that was having a hard time getting published and showed no statistical difference between the two groups. I’ve yet to hear anyone in the media really press Dr Health Gnome or any public health bureaucrats on RCT studies that show a benefit. I also don’t hear any pushback on the negative effects of masking. There are reasons that we don’t normally cover our faces when we walk around in public in the West. One of those is the importance we (used to) place on the individual, as with masks people become a faceless mass. The whole thing is beyond fucked.
Pfft… Anthony Fauci wears a lab coat and says the things I want to hear so he is credible and I have it on good authority that he is the science.

Science DAMN you to hell!
I think a lot of doctors are scared to speak up because the FedGov can really fuck with their careers via medical licensing. Yet another reason to scrap medical licensing.
Most of the negative effects of mask wearing are not physical in nature, they are psychological and social in nature. There are many reasons we should not have rule by doctors.
As far as I can tell, the pro-mask studies all seem to be based on lab observations of the physical processes of potential viral spread. While those types of studies are helpful in forming a hypothesis, they should be ignored in favor of empirical field data, and all of that is coming with the resounding message of “Masks don’t do shit.”
Yup. They are either science fair projects blowing air through a mask, or they are computer simulations.
We actually do have the basis for some observational/comparative studies, at least as far as mask mandates go. And they show zero, or even a negative, correlation to infection. Mask compliance/use is much harder to identify, but the Big Spike last winter, when masking was very much in evidence, is a major, I would even say an insurmountable, data point that masks certainly don’t do much. Not enough to justify a mandate, at least.

A MUM jailed for killing her paedo neighbour today reveals her motive for the first time — her son was one of his victims.
Sarah Sands got 7½ years for the manslaughter of 77-year-old Michael Pleasted.
At her 2015 trial, it emerged Pleasted had 24 convictions for sex offences over three decades.
Mum-of-five Sarah, now 38 and out of jail, said: “I did what any mother would do because he did this to my son Bradley, my little boy.
“I never dreamt I’d be capable. I have no pride in it but at least I know he can’t hurt anyone else.
“I’m not a bad person but I know I did a bad thing. I’ve never denied that and I’ve been punished.
“I’d never kill again. I don’t see myself as a murderer.
“But I don’t regret what I did. I was a mum desperate to protect my children.

We’ve seen the rise of White nationalism. Nationalism is not good,” he said in a clip flagged by NewsBusters. “And also, this whole idea — I keep thinking back on the Capitol riots, and I saw a lot of, you know, U.S. flags.”
“So now when I see the flag and the flag raised, what — what America am I living in? You know, are the ones that don’t think, you know, we should be here?” he went on, referring to him and other African Americans.

If you think you don’t trust scientists, you’re mistaken. You trust scientists in a million different ways every time you step on a plane, or for that matter turn on your tap or open a can of beans. The fact that you’re unaware of this doesn’t mean it’s not so.
https://twitter.com/paulg/status/1419765657080578052
no, scientism is not a religion, no sir
I may have said this before, but no. I don’t trust scientists. I trust results.
Engineers…entrepreneurs…everyday folk make those things possible…not some scientists waving his magic wand uttering incantations.
But I’ve been told that people like that just try to kill their customers as it is the best way to make profit.

That’s 100 percent true, actually – just not in the way he thinks.
People trust scientists with all those examples mentioned. They just don’t automatically believe and obey government personnel with sciencey job titles who are telling them that they have to give up all their rights.
every time you step on a plane
Here’s the difference. I can observe, with my own eye, that the airplanes take off, stay in the air, and don’t fall out of the sky except in very rare situations. The science matches with the real life observations in an incontrovertible way.
If this was the early 20th century and I was asked to step onto the Wright Flyer, I’d tell them to fuck off. Most of the aviation pioneers lived very short lives because the “science” was new and they hadn’t sorted everything out yet. Hell, they were still learning 50 years later when De Havilland Comets started falling out of the sky. Even now, over a century later, a small set of modifications to a 50 year old airframe led to a number of planes eating dirt.
If we want to talk about trusting scientists like we trust airplanes, fine. Show me 100 years of mRNA vaccines working well without side effects and we’ll talk.
Quite true. This is similar to why I don’t buy guns of a brand-spankin-new design. Seems like they’re recalled far more frequently than time-tested designs like the 1911, AK, etc. Before I invest that kind of money in a gun, it needs to be on the market for at least a few years with no major issues. I feel no need whatsoever to be the first guy at the range to show up with some newfangled gun that was on the front page of all the magazines.
This is similar to why I don’t buy guns of a brand-spankin-new design.
It seems that whenever a new design is marketed, its followed in a few years by new design v. 2.0 which fixes some of the flaws uncovered by contact with the real world.
Always wait for v. 2.0.

Unskilled/semiskilled. There are probably more of these than you think. They are extremely portable, and with some exceptions have very little attachment to their hospital job. Major flight risk, IMO.
Licensed. This mostly RNs, also APNs. And of course doctors. If every hospital in your market requires a vax, they are less of a flight risk. Although we are looking at an historic exodus of nurses from hospital work now, and a severe nationwide shortage.
Of interest: the first hospital to mandate the vax, Memorial Hermann in Houston, lost very few employees.
“…Memorial Hermann in Houston, lost very few employees”
I’ll guess that it’s due to an attitude like I have- “sooner or later, Im going to have to get the damn thing.” In order to fly, enter a gov’t (or private depending on the owner’s policy), attend my kid’s sporting or school events, Im likely going to be asked to show my papers.
Over/Under on how much longer Biden can survive a 25th amendment finding? I think DOCTOR Jill may be told by his handlers to hold on as long as possible and finally remove Biden in last year of his term so that President Harris gets all sort of sympathy votes for her heroic stepping in to the president’s slot ( like Truman and LBJ got).
There will be no 25th Amendment move against Biden. It starts with the Cabinet officers, who are apparatchiks who would never embarrass the Party that way.
Congress can appoint, essentially, a commission to get the ball rolling. If the Repubs take both houses in 2022, that’s a possibility. Until then? No way. After? I would say a 1 in 5 chance at most. Too many TEAM BE RULED, not enough bomb-throwers.
Mask up, bitches.

Just saw that. Shit…
Suck my dick you motherfuckers. Goddamn, we’re going into the toilet.
Not a chance in hell.
The wife and I had a conversation about homeschooling if this shit keeps up.
It sounds like the mask mandate for vaxed people is being done to pit them against the unvaxxed. Maybe the opening step towards banning the unvaxxed from stores and employment?
I’m still trying to figure out why they so desperately want people vaxxed who at greater risk from the vaccine than from Covid. Or perhaps they don’t care if anyone gets the vax and this is just being done to increase strife and conflict across the population.
All the explanations are evil.
It’s divide and conquer. As pissed as we are just think how pissed the vaccinated people who buy into the line they’re pushing are pissed at the unvaccinated and the demands they’re going to make.
I get the divide and conquer part. It’s the why part I don’t get. What’s the endgame here?
If it was just about an ineffectual vaccine for people who aren’t at risk, I would have thought they’d start easing off now. Big Pharma has made their profits and everyone who wants the vaccine has gotten it.
Instead they’ve doubled down hard.
Some people get off on fucking over and dominating people they don’t like and this is a chance for doing just this that’s too good to pass up.
Avoidance of culpability
Their draconian tactics haven’t worked and they cannot admit they were wrong, so they are seeking to deflect blame.
Power. Well, money, but power first.
What’s the endgame here?
I thought “conquer” was the endgame, and “divide” was the strategy.
I guess more specifically what does conquer look like? Someone is directing the response to this. The coordinated response on election night ended any doubt I have that there isn’t some group behind the scenes.
What’s the point of making everyone take the vax? A little power but so what. Steps towards acquiring the power to lock down the country like Australia and New Zealand? That makes more sense. Or maybe it’s just CCP fostering discord to further divide and weaken the country.
What’s the point of making everyone take the vax?
Not just a little power. This is a big move in the Overton Window. They define everything as “public health”. There’s no vax mandate without vax passports of some kind, and your “public health score” is just the Westernized version of the CCP’s social credit score. Don’t forget, these are the same people who claimed they had the rightful authority to order you to eat your broccoli back in the ObamaCare days. Leftism is a movement which absolutely has to have enemies to persecute. The 01/06 insurrection narrative is about pivoting the national security state away from foreign enemies toward domestic enemies. The unvaxxed are just another enemy to shovel into the Leftist boiler to keep it running.
Of course, there’s graft and profit, which never hurts. It punishes the people they hate, which never hurts. The conflation, by the way, of Trump supporters and “anti-vaxxers” is no accident – this is part of the broader movement to marginalize and exclude non-leftists from society.

Correct. It’s a soft purge as they try to solidify their hold on the institutions that wield power. The hard purges come when this fails to cow us.
Maybe the opening step towards banning the unvaxxed from stores and employment?
IMO, that’ll be the push, along with passports and mandates, in Sept/oct/Nov time frame.
UK got the Delta variant prior to the US. Cases over the past week there have dropped 50%. Is it burning itself out?
Over/Under on how much longer Biden can survive a 25th amendment finding?
They’ll use the new SUPERDEADLY variant wave to lock him in the bunker and keep his gaffes to a minimum.
An abundance of caution.

A fact innovation researchers have known for 63 years, but few people seem to actually do:
?Don’t start brainstorming sessions as a group!
✅Start by writing down ideas on your own. It prevents anchoring & social pressures from ruining divergent thinking. Then go to the group!

That is a good rule to follow. Also a good rule in today’s climate is know when to shut your mouth and not keep pushing that nonmainstream idea you have. At least sometimes.
anyone know anything about 1440 a supposedly politically neutral news feed?
For anyone interested: Watch Live — Pelosi sham commission on January 6th
Commission = coverup, as usual. It’s the final nail in the coffin for any real transparency or accountability.
Cudgel, not coverup. This being used to attack opponents, including ordinary Americans by the deep state, not hide wrongdoing.
I’ll catch the highlights on ESPN
What’s LeBron think about the 6th? I simply must know.
Barkley says it was TEH-RU-BLUH., TEH-RU-BLUH…
And then he will regale us with a clarification that will include mentions of “The big gurls of San Antone”, which will trigger a whole bunch of idiots.

From the latest Bari Weiss article. Choke on this one.

I can think of so many worse things.
Sniveling, whiny, grovelling pussy, for starters.

Only women can get pregnant. Someone is not qualified to be a physician.
To be fair, cultural revolutions are usually led by overeducated children. He’s just saying he’s one of the good guys that should be spared.
Most of the aviation pioneers lived very short lives because the “science” was new and they hadn’t sorted everything out yet.
They were making it up on the fly.

That depends on the definition of “offensive” I guess.

The PDF was not accessible for people with disabilities.

NYT headline from google news this morning is about an “epidemic of anger” among the vaxxed.
Apparently they resent the idea they might have been bamboozled.
Haha, just kidding, I’m sure it’s about how it pisses them off that people who don’t meekly OBEY are ruining things for the goodthinkful.
The biggest lie is that we can actually completely get rid of this thing. It’s an endemic disease now no matter how draconian we get with the various anticovid measures or the vaccines.
I think your mistake is thinking the people behind the dystopian agenda don’t already know this is the case, and are just doing this because they are dumb, but Jeeze at this point I believe even people with low double digit IQs would have figured out what is being done is not working….
I agree with you actually, they know exactly what they’re doing and it isn’t public health.
The dumb and uninformed ones though, they’ll eat what they’re fed and will do it seemingly in perpetuity.
There is a segment of people out there that has their opinions assigned to them by the machine, and these people think they are the smart ones and in the right with a religious fervor. These are the people that will cry and protest that they believed in the revolution and still supported it wholeheartedly, but feel things have gone awry, when the people that take power have them lined up against a wall and shot for fucking with their hold on power. They will die defending evil shit and people’s lies about an utopian social justice society, and not understanding what went wrong.
I’ve seen anger by the vaxxed at the unvaxxed. The cognitive dissonance is a wonder to behold. They have to simultaneously believe the vax isn’t effective enough to keep them from getting sick, and effective enough to mandate.
I think its driven by displacement. They are angry because they are bombarded with stories now about “breakthrough infections”, as Our Masters brainlessly keep whipping up panic however they can, which would mean they are chumps for rushing out to get an experimental vaccine. At some level, they have to realize this, and it pisses them off. But rather than admit they were chumps, they displace onto the deplorable unvaxxed. Egged on, of course, by TMITE and a public health institution desperate to cover up its own incompetence.
Of course, the vaccines actually work pretty well, if you aren’t mentally broken and insist on total and complete safety in all things, everywhere, forever. But once you get people whipped into a panic, you can’t have a rational conversation with them.
Well said!
As far as I can tell, the pro-mask studies all seem to be based on lab observations of the physical processes of potential viral spread. While those types of studies are helpful in forming a hypothesis, they should be ignored in favor of empirical field data, and all of that is coming with the resounding message of “Masks don’t do shit.”
The only ones I have seen are high-school-science-fair quality “experiments” involving plant sprayers and simulated masks. The kind of stuff which would have been worth about a B- at my high school.
Safety Evaluation of the Second Dose of Messenger RNA COVID-19 Vaccines in Patients With Immediate Reactions to the First Dose
Because for these individuals obviously the risk of dying from the ‘Vid is higher than anaphylactic shock. Science!

Vaccines are not perfect. They are not magic. But it’s obviously not enough to say, “Look at the improved resistance among the vaccinated.”
And, as I have been saying for nigh unto a year and a half, it’s easier to initiate the stampede than it is to bring it to and end. And if you continue to shoot and holler and throw firecrackers….
https://nj1015.com/you-dont-feel-sick-youre-vaccinated-but-should-you-get-tested-for-covid/
They continue to throw firecrackers. They are gonna drive up those “case numbers.”
The amount of coordination working this is rather astounding. Who says our .gov can’t get shit done?
I am a very vax pro individual. I lived in some real shitholes when I was young where I saw people die from things like Meningitis, Polio, Malaria, Tetanus, and other things we could easily prevent, and the vaccines I got protected me. Never had a problem with any vaccine, but was well aware that the things were neither perfect nor free of risk. Like most intelligent people, I could do simple risk analysis and always found taking the vax was a good gamble (for me). My child however had a bad reaction to one of the vaccines they gave him, and that event led me to do a lot of research on the stuff going forward. The science was clear that the vaccine was to allow your body to fake the disease and then build an immunity. You didn’t take a vaccine after you ended up getting the disease, cause that was not going to help in any form. So you can see that where the people demanding everyone get vaccines lose me is when they say even people that were sick with the Kung Flu and now have natural immunity, need to take the vaccine anyway, cause… Well, reasons..
The fact that many get infected with the Kung Flu again after getting the vaccine tells me the vaccine is either not effective in all cases, or that the Kung Flu simply mutates too quick for, or comes in so many variants that a vaccine loses its prophylactic property (like the flu). Another potential is that the tests report any respiratory infections as the King Flu. When I had the Kung Flu I had nothing but a bad cough. No fever. No side effects. Nothing that stood out. It lasted about 4 days (the cough). Now I should mention that I did have a bad case of a SARS infection a decade or so ago, and some studies have come out showing people that developed that immunity might have had a far less virulent case of Kung Flu if they didn’t have serious comorbidities, so that might be why I had so little problem with the CCP virus.
Hers is some advice: if you are getting your medical advice from people on TeeVee, social media, or other media, and not from your own doctor, then you are doing this fucking thing wrong. There is a risk from getting the CCP Flu. There is a potential risk of vaccine side effects. Figure out what suits your situation best. Stop fucking worrying about what other people do. And yes, if you took the vaccine and people tell you to keep wearing masks, tell them to suck your dick.
if you are getting your medical advice from people on TeeVee, social media, or other media, and not from your own doctor, then you are doing this fucking thing wrong.
The odds are quite high that your doctor is indoctrinated by the pro-vax public health machine, as well. Trust, as they say, but verify.
And yes, if you took the vaccine and people tell you to keep wearing masks, tell them to suck your dick.
And since these are almost certainly the same people who tell you take your vax and wear your mask, ask them why they want you to take a vax that is so ineffective you have to keep wearing a mask.
