Known Republican Lebron James doesn't want to say whether he's vaccinated.

How can you be woke and a social justice leader and refuse to say? I’d love to hear that argument.

Depends on how shitty the people are who are asking, I'd guess. If I felt like the question was more like a pre-emptive attack I'd tell them to go to hell with their question, too.

And yes I still think those who are capable and should get vaccinated but still don't are fucking assholes.

Shucks, I'm still for open carry and let everybody say what they want to. Manners and assholes would soon even out.😊

@loki The point is that fully vaccinated individuals are capable of transmitting the disease, just like unvaccinated people.

Therefore, it is incumbent upon the individual to take responsibility for himself. Being vaccinated may, or may not protect society in this case, especially the further you are from your vaccination.

Martha’s Vineyard is for democrats

Nantucket is for republicans

Resulting in his death.

He made a tragic miscalculation in the odds. Thought it was just women and children. A soft target.

As a juror I would call the woman a hero, imminent threat to mothers and children. The optics aren’t any more obvious than that.

Thanks all! I will pass it along.

Drama is part of the sausage making. If a deal happened I would expect chop and turbulence and a dumpster fire all the way to the bitter end…and then each side will need to figure out if it has the votes and the leverage to accept whatever.

The salesman brought all the entertainment on that one. Good sport.

Declassify and release all the documents, I say.

My thing is, I don't understand why, in order to be a right-thinking, intelligent and politically savvy individual, you have to hate Tesla and Elon Musk. I'm not a fan or anything, I just don't see how that tracks. You can in fact love, hate, or be indifferent to Musk and Tesla, and still be on this side of reason and rationality.

He’s African American. Conservatives don’t like African Americans unless they wear bow ties.

Tesla... He named his company after a LOSER. If he would have named it after Edison, it would be much better.

We love oil. I mean love it. We kill for it.

He has Aspergers, which obviously means that he has been vaccinated.

@jon-nyc said in Transplanted, vaccinated, no antibodies. Now what?:

Small study out of the Czech Republic found t-cell response in 4 of 12 lung transplant patients that didn’t have antibodies. And that was after 2 shots.

I was talking about that this morning with my other friend that had a double lung transplant.

Wonderful to read what someone was going through first hand during the war. Thanks so much for sharing Klaus. I agree with Jolly, those letters belong in a museum.

And yes, 90% of Americans will probably die, unless we take precautions.

What precautions would you recommend?
Should we add them to the infrastructure bill?

I don't think you have to, as the cost is not astronomical, being about $40B over a few years to protect the most critical parts of the grid. DOD has by far the most experience with how to do it and a civilian/military joint project is underway in San Antonio. Maybe we carve the money out of the defense budget along with a few other dollars scarfed from here and there.

That would protect critical components. Maybe the grid goes down for a few weeks, but we can work around that.

2% of Japan's population is currently vaccinated.

Trump supporters?

No they're just behind for non-ridiculous reasons.

Working pretty well today. May be something well out of our control.

Probably a prudent political move under the present circumstances. Definitely a move that will garner broad public support, although I am certain very few even knew - or for that matter, gave any thought to the existence- of such partnerships until the story broke.

The irony of it is that the provincial government invested a lot of time and resources in facilitating and promoting these post secondary partnerships with China over the last thirty or so years.

That’s helpful to know. I was looking at one the other day and was saying my god which Beltway bandit took the post office for a ride on that POS. If I could only have appreciated how durable they sound.

Russel Moore was going to hit the bricks by 6/30/21, jobless. The SBC is conservative. Moore, increasingly, was not.

The Trump stuff is just fluff for folks like you.

There currently is a small war being waged within the denomination over people pushing many Leftist ideas. The promotion of homosexuality as no longer a sin, with gay marriage tolerated by the church. The adoption of CRT, in some form or another.

Ain't gonna happen. The Conference would literally tear itself asunder over such non-Biblical balderdash and the associations (and the money) ain't going with the Moore's of the SBC.
