It’s unclear whether the email is real but it’s far more clear that Russian intelligence hacked Biden’s son and used the President’s personal lawyer to release it.

Who needs Julian Assange anymore?

I don't know if it's clear or not. We'll let you know in three and a half years...

"4 years set us back 40"

Votes are easy if they don't matter, but the messaging power of being able to honestly say that you voted for someone. Votes become hard if you have to make a difficult choice.

Trump is after eyeballs.

Trump vs. Biden ratings will be interesting...

Biden got more, on TV at least. Maybe online will tell a different story.

And as mentioned, Tucker did very well in the same time slot.

Yeah but how many shares of Apple could have been bought.

Adjusted for splits, Apple stock had an average price of about 0.4893 USD per share.
$250 per week translates to about 511 shares of (post-split) Apple stock per week in 1992.
Today (2020-10-16), 511 shares of Apple stock is worth about 29,800 USD.

I was probably in my 20s by the time I knew those books were blatant Christian allegory. That was the speed at which I learned of the world pre-internet.

You're probably half right.

Sorry for the family stuff. Been there.

+1 Yes, it stinks. Ignore other family members as needed.

We'll be thinking of you.

@Loki said in Pfizer asks for emergency authorization for vaccine:

Why would we not give it to people in nursing homes today? Seems like a no brainer.

Because if a ton of people in nursing homes are seriously damaged by it, the subsequent lawsuits would put Pfizer out of business?

Lots of trials right now where people are doing fine. I think you can calculate how many old people die for every day delay. How humane is that. I know I would give to my parents and take the risk and not sue.

I thought the American Dream v 2.0 was to have something bad happen to a family member and to then become a multi-millionaire following the lawsuit.

I know, I know, I'm being overly cynical. The actual dream is to have something mildly aggravating happen and then sue them for emotional turmoil caused.

Note though that these errors lead to systematic undercounting of mail-in votes.

The vendors who make these errors need to be investigated.

Dang Republicans.

Is he healthy?

He's not looked good for ages. If I was him, I'd be hunkering down.

I'll do that this evening when I've got more time. It will take a while to type it out. Right now I've got to take my car to the body shop so they can take pictures of the damage for the other guy's insurance adjuster.
