    @jolly said in China declares victory over “extreme poverty”: @taiwan_girl said in China declares victory over “extreme poverty”: @loki said in China declares victory over “extreme poverty”: Taiwan is coming. LOL I hope not and dont think so. If they think they can, they will... True. It will be "subtle" if it happens. Maybe start by taking over Kinmen and Matsu islands.....

    @lufins-dad said in Vaccines for 12+: nor is the risk of transmission. That’s true with small kids, but older teens?

    AZ is 100% effective against serious illness, hospitalization and death. That’s some definition of suck based on what has happened over the last year to our people and our economy. But yeah people think it sucks. Weird.

    @lufins-dad Yes and yes. Especially to point #1. The last 8 months or so, I've essentially gone from being a piano restoration guy that also does some piano moving, to a being piano mover that visits his shop just long enough to grab another dolly. Real estate prices locally have gone through the roof as tons of people from New York and Boston have moved into CT suburbs.

    Pierre Salinger gave up most if not all of his reputation on TWA flight 800. That’s what I remember most.

    I've read the books several times. I wish the film would have stuck to one or the other.

    My district isn’t (yet) insane with woke neoracism (though there’s a contingent trying hard to get us there), so I think the boy will be okay. Also he’s already a bit cynical about it, and it didn’t really come from me.

    Well, I’m planning on having the tests in April. Mostly I’m just curious to see if I had it at some point without knowing it. I doubt it will effect whenI get the vaccine since I will be so late in the game.

    The limits are pretty ridiculous. You can't get evicted if you expect to make six figures?

    Well now they have people quarantine who were potentially exposed to the positive case. Sometimes that’s a whole classroom. So I imagine they’ll do more of the same.
