Won't be the first line she's been a part of...

That’s why I always use my own cables and chargers whenever I can. Be it rental cars or hotels or airport waiting areas or airplanes, many of them provide USB charging ports but just for peace of mind I prefer to use my own charger plugged into an AC outlet. Much, much harder to electrically hack through the transformer.

That's a good thing.

I'm sure we all have. If I'm not allowed to laugh at that, what is it for? Getting pissed at the people who are by and large creating the biggest and completely avoidable strain on our health system is pretty natural, I think. It still pisses me off, but condemnation isn't going to change any minds, and I don't feel any righteousness from unvaccinated infection horror stories. I just want everybody to be able to ride this shitstorm out. That's separate from the fact that a lot of the anti-vaxx nonsense is absolutely hilarious. I mean c'mon, it just is. It's about as humorous as my apparent incompetence with terlets, and I'm not about to take some kind of half-assed "life choice" moral stance on my stupidity there, unnecessary ignorance is always funny. I think this captures my sentiment most closely. Yeah I started this thread with a snarky quote but it is certainly no worse than what is said of Hillary and Biden as examples. Not clear to me why some things are flagged as out of bounds. I certainly don’t want to alienate anyone so that is a fair comment. The differences between this and the political stuff with Hillary and President Uncle Joe are pretty clear. As much as we joke about politics being a blood sport, it isn’t. It’s important, yes, but most people’s lives and long term health aren’t really affected too much by the results. People’s livelihoods aren’t generally being threatened based on their Voter Registration status. They aren’t being denied entry to concerts because they are registered independent or didn’t participate in the last election. If I’m not a positive influence on one person and their vote… Oh well. If I’m a negative influence on somebody’s decision regarding vaccination, it could affect countless others.

@mik said in Breadless: Yep. Supply chain will be the death of the species. Struth.

@jolly said in Kurt Rant: He’s senile. Yup

@jolly said in The Problem: Indeed, a lieutenant colonel in the U.S. Marine Corps was relieved of his command for posting a video accurately blaming military and civilian leadership for the Afghanistan nightmare. Yet until Jan. 20, retired top brass had constantly smeared their elected commander in chief with impunity. Yup

@89th said in Texas Public Schools and Mask Mandates: @axtremus said in Texas Public Schools and Mask Mandates: A central Texas school system shutdown after two staff members died of COVID-19. "It was not immediately known if either teacher was vaccinated." Umm, I can make a pretty good guess on that answer. I wouldn't. While the deaths are overwhelmingly unvaccinated, there are some who are. I know of a few, personally. They're burying a 55 year-old down the road from me today...Saw the hearse about 30 minutes ago...

Toilet water infused connections by any name smell as sweet.

Really good. Otherwise what normal person would run for office?

Indeed I hadn't heard of that. What a nightmare!

Poodles are very smart.

It was misinformation, so an account deletion was mandatory.

Or a vaccine that doesn't work against it!

Geraldo said on The Five yesterday that FOX News had made sure they got their interpreter and his family out of Afghanistan. It was a private effort, not necessarily coordinated with the government. He also said most of the other networks had done the same.
