@Copper said in Plimoth Plantation Will Change Name By The End Of The Year:

According to the museum, discussions about a name change have been underway for more than a year, . . .

Translation: "In case anybody thinks we're, like, caving in to the current trends. With the protesters and all."

Swell. A back hole in the neighborhood. They just HAD to find this in 2020.

Did I mention Disney World opened today?

The heat alone is deadly enough for me.

But apparently not for the virus.

It’s a bit late to say it’s about time. He had no choice though or he wouldn’t have been able to make the visit. I wonder if he struggled over the choice.

I had ham and fruit and a new washing machine!!!

@jon-nyc said in Something doesn’t sound right here...:

Someone didn’t get funded by Barda and escalated to the press.

And a Pharma didn’t want it? Or they didn’t want to sell?

It takes 1.5 beers to properly lay and start a charcoal fire and bring the grill to desired temp. It takes .25 beers to bring a propane grill to temp. Advantage - Charcoal

FIBs.

That's hysterical.

well the first one was just a verbal accident but I'm curious where he was going with the european culture thing.

I couldn't embed just the second tweet which what I wanted to do.

@Rainman said in My optometrist doesn’t like Trump:

In our school district, it became policy that an employee could not give a compliment unless first asking the person if it would be OK to give a compliment.
Absolutely illogical. Nuts. The change was forced by an assistant superintendent, the same one that filed a grievance against me.
She weighs like 1,000 lbs., no makeup ever, frumpy in dress, but knows how to manipulate the system to institute radical leftwing nonsense. And then enforces with a big smile. Very few people in this world that I hold in complete contempt. She's one.

That explains a lot, Rainman.

@Horace said in Today's PSA:

I would hope that everybody knows the virus is capable of killing people regardless of age, politics, or favorite soft drink. Given that, these anecdotes will exist. I see no reason for a 'wow'. But then I'm particularly bad at deriving meaning from anecdote.

Interestingly at the 35 age level you would find the same number or more flu deaths. Of course they don’t make the news. And that’s with a vaccine.

See, that fact, if it is indeed fact, is way more interesting than an anecdote. To me. But not to most people.

You should do some math. I calculated 100% of those 35 and other getting Covid and multiplied by the IFR Of those 35 and under and my argument still holds.

This reply is Aqua.

Hard to paint gravel.😄

Go get 'em, tiger! 🐅

Well he did have an undeniable point in his original take, though of course it's monstrously inhuman. The economic benefit of everybody dying at 75 would be seismic.
