I don’t think it’s political as much as general disinterest this year. I paid no attention to baseball, hockey, or basketball as everything was too screwy. Shortened seasons, weird tournaments, it just didn’t have any appeal. Think of this, last year at the fifty game mark, the Nats were 19 and 31. They went on a 7-3 run and maintained that pace through the rest of the season and went on to win the World Series. This year they were 19-31, then won 7 of 10 to end at 26-34 exactly the same as last year, but he season ended and they went home in last place. Hard to get excited about championships and playoffs in an altered circumstance.

Poor dear Jane thinks she speaks for a lot of different people. But I suspect that Jane only speaks for herself.

@LuFins-Dad said in Joe confabulates again: fvcking bullshit . MODERATOR! HE USED A NON-CURSE WORD! HE'S GONNA SPOIL IT FOR THE REST OF US!

Doudna was on Sam Harris’s podcast a few years back. Very glad she won.

@Doctor-Phibes said in Indicted: There's the TV Parental Guidelines. To be honest, this indictment looks like grandstanding. Almost everybody would agree that promoting pedophilia is a very bad idea, but not permitting documentaries showing what goes on in the world seems over-bearing, and quite likely counter-productive. The double-standards exhibited by TV censorship are already rather ridiculous. People brand sex and violence together as though they're somehow related or similar - a link which in itself could be seen as extremely rather damaging, but then permit no end of the most horrendous violence to be shown (and frequently glorified), but people reach for their smelling salts at the sight of a female nipple, unless of course it's shown as part of a decapitated torso. How European! OTOH, you have a point.

I would have said 'marketing executive', but a number of options work.

@Larry said in Coronavirus from Wuhan Lab: What does the statistics say................ If you read the paper, there's an awful lot of stuff in there I don't understand. It could be data, it could be techno-babble - I have no idea. I doubt you can tell the difference either. I guess just making up your mind because you want to believe her is one approach. Like I said, there are a lot of highly qualified folks who don't agree with her.

He wants to make them twist and shout.

It probably isn't. Don't believe anything I say. Including this post.
