Pretty bad He will do worse

Complaints equal 0.0000767%. I think I’ll take my chances. Chances of dying of Covid are much much higher. The odds are about the same as being hit by lightning. You can’t make this stuff up.

Yup

@jolly said in CDC sez....: My point is this...Masks only provide a fraction of barrier protection that is not nearly what most people think. And as far as staff masks in the office go...I'm telling you what I see. When the employees or docs are around patients or walking down the hallway, they mask. Behind closed doors, staff tends to lay them on the counter or pull them down. I have not seen the back areas of the hospital treated the same as the public areas. Not in some time... I think we all get that. Why people go to war over masks is the question. The outrage is a strong indicator of a sick society, like whales beaching themselves or bee colony collapse.

I’ve watched a ton of streaming content. The beauty of a decent movie is the curation, pacing, production values. You get a two hour version of an entire season, and it is quite refreshing. I enjoy having to pay more attention. That said if people won’t pay to go to the movies in mass anymore, investors are going to put their money where the growth is. It’s that simple.

I don’t have my PC, otherwise I’d start with Kevin Bacon

It‘s Trump’s own doing. Trump wanted to remove that head of the CFPB that was similarly term-protected and approved by the Senate, so Trump sued to have that power all the way up to the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court ruled, basically along partisan line, that the President does indeed have the power to fire this type of “single head of agency” positions. Now Biden gets to weild the power given to the Presidency by Trump and the Supreme Court conservative majority’s doing. FWIW, the same power were also exercised recently to fire the head of the federal housing administration.

Talk about dehumanizing people...

@axtremus said in Women with Guns Protest Against Taliban Rule: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/jul/07/armed-afghan-women-take-to-streets-in-show-of-defiance-against-taliban [image: 2048.jpg?width=1300&quality=45&auto=format&fit=max&dpr=2&s=33d4f29a301352fa315404a03f6651c4] Just so y'all know... That's the barrel from a RPK machine gun poking out on the left side of the pic. That sucker weighs around 11 pounds, not to mention the ammo to feed it. I wouldn't want to hump it up and down hills. Especially if I was a woman...

@mik said in Simple, Roasted Onions From 1808: I would use a sweet onion like a Vidalia. Absolutely.

@jon-nyc said in "You load 16 tons....": Yet I can legally buy weed in dispensaries all over the state, no medical need required, just an ID. And pay a ton of taxes, LOL.

@aqua-letifer said in Do you tip for take-out food?: @lufins-dad said in Do you tip for take-out food?: Here’s the thing… I’m a regular at my take out places. They know my orders, they know my number. While I am not a fan of tipping for takeout, I am also not a fan of having unknown surprises in my food… I dunno. Around my area, tipping for takeout isn't really a thing. Restaurants don't expect it. A few years back I was at a coffee shop in southern VA. I got a coffee at the counter, and didn’t feel like carrying around the $.37 change, so I asked the girl at the counter where her tip jar was. She looked at me like I was nuts. “Tips?” I told her that most every place in Northern VA had top jars… The next day I stopped by for another coffee and the girl was excited to see me, pointing out the brand new mason jar with TIPS written in sharpie on a white label… Take out places may not expect tips, until they get tips. Once they get tips, the expectations change… I normally go 10%, 15% if I am a regular.

@89th sure thing! PM me the POC. Thanks!

GEORGE BANKS! SAY HIS NAME! GEORGE BANKS! SAY HIS NAME!

@aqua-letifer said in Hey Aqua...: @doctor-phibes said in Hey Aqua...: @aqua-letifer said in Hey Aqua...: Let's see what the drug tests reveal. That being said, Cavendish is indeed a beast. I suspect that Cavendish is a lot cleaner than Merckz was when he set the record. In a vacuum, yes. But, it's professional cycling. I wonder if Cavendish is pulling the asthma card. To be honest, if Cavendish were doping, I think he would look better on the climbs.

@catseye3 said in Facebook censors sensitive content: Sigh. Poor Ax. He makes a perfectly obvious point -- to take your offering elsewhere if you don't like the venue -- and everybody falls on him like an avalanche. Why? Because it's Ax, and that's what we do. Then get your electricity from whomever you please. And if you can't, toughsky shitsky, start your own electric company. That is the point Ax is making. I'm sure it's obvious, but it certainly is flawed...

@doctor-phibes said in Resume' review: When the apocalypse occurs, Gummy Bears will be worth more than Bitcoin. We should be OK for a little while... [image: 20210310-111831.jpg] The Prusa 3D printers and kits come with a pocket size bag. Several experienced builders had told us that that little bag just wasn't enough to get through the build, especially when two people are going to participate in the build. So I ordered a few more bags. lol
