Let's get our treatment up to a level so as to render infection as dangerous by % population as the flu. That's my personal "throw up our hands" benchmark, and I think we can get there within a year. We started out with a goal of keeping the death rate below that of heart disease. We passed that one waaay back...

Officers should especially assume that in Midland.

@copper said in Meanwhile, in Florida...: @axtremus said in Meanwhile, in Florida...: Cloth masks should be made with two or more layers of a breathable fabric that is tightly woven (i.e., fabrics that do not let light pass through when held up to a light source). Mr. Jenne's mask probably didn't have the required two or more layers. Lock him up. Au contraire. Women's panties have two layers in the crotch, one end unsewn.

@bachophile said in Hay Bach!: Avasarala has Cushing? Adrenal adenoma? I was going to guess breast cancer, with mets to adrenal, and bone (knee and skull). However, looking closer, that's not a good guess. I don't know what that would be in the suprasternal area, and the primary doesn't show up. Cushings makes sense considering the hypertension and the cortisol level.

And in the hotel room, he can maybe have one of those gifts too (e.g., the CD/cassette recorder).

@friday said in I'm such a geezer: @lufins-dad said in I'm such a geezer: I’ve seen the movie several times and wouldn’t have gotten it. Seriously? That's like the biggest line in the whole movie. That and "Fish are friends; not food." Yeah it's like a main quote/theme in the movie. Then again, I have a 3 year old.

I was excited, I thought you were talking about the movie that comes out in a week.

The Senate passed it unanimously. The house had a single holdout, some Republican from KY.

That setup is actually pretty normal; lobbying teams work that way, too. But it's hilarious for anyone who knows anything about WaPo.

I bought a pair of All American Clothing Co jeans, and really like them. https://www.allamericanclothing.com/collections/jeans/Mens
