    @Jolly said in ABC reporter calls out Fox reporter about masks.: @Loki said in ABC reporter calls out Fox reporter about masks.: Funny how it took so much longer with drunk driving and smoking to get people to say it’s not acceptable. Even today smoking a cigarette doesn’t carry the same scarlet letter as not wearing a mask. Move to my part of the world. Yup. In the few stores that I have been to during the last month, masks have been maybe 50/50 yes/no, maybe 40/60. That includes Walmart, True Value Hardware, Food Lion supermarket and the Liquor store. At the golf course there are very few people wearing masks, probably fewer than 1%.

    I might be moving to the back pew... Pastor and I were discussing this today and he said that sometimes you need to trust in God to protect you. “Pastor, there once was a dutiful deacon that trusted The Lord completely. When his town was flooding, he was on the roof of his house praying “Oh God, our Creator, please lift me from these waters.” A boat comes by and a man tells “Brother, jump in the boat!!” The deacon says “No! The Lord will save me!” He keeps praying and a second boat comes... Same thing happens... By this point the water is up to his neck. This time a helicopter arrives... Same thing. So the deacon frowns and is standing before God. “God, thank You for all you’ve done, but may I ask why you didn’t save me?” God replied “I sent you two boats and a helicopter. The rest was up to you.”

    I’ve definitely become more aware of people dying since COVID, many of natural causes. Don’t know if it’s getting more widely reported or if I am much more aware. I suspect it’s the former.

    @George-K said in Fascinating graphic of world fertility rates over time: I can't recommend the book Klurrs pointed out - "Why We Sleep" highly enough. (correlation ≠ causation warning here) Coincident with the declining fertility rate is the declining amount of sleep that our society gets. Theres a definite correlation between sleep and sperm production. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the average amount of sleep was about 9 hours, now we're down to 7 or less. Again, I don't know if that decrease in sperm counts correlates with the decrease in fertility, but the numbers do coincide. “ men who report sleeping too little—or having poor-quality sleep—have a 29 percent lower sperm count than those obtaining a full and restful night of sleep, and the sperm themselves have more deformities” And this: “Take a group of lean, healthy young males in their mid-twenties and limit them to five hours of sleep for one week, as a research group did at the University of Chicago. Sample the hormone levels circulating in the blood of these tired participants and you will find a marked drop in testosterone relative to their own baseline levels of testosterone when fully rested. The size of the hormonal blunting effect is so large that it effectively “ages” a man by ten to fifteen years in terms of testosterone virility. ” Well then I am sure I am locked and loaded.

    Just what we need - to crush another American success. Don't we have bigger fish to fry at the moment? With the bill on internet data that was passed last week I find it laughable they are complaining about Amazon using data they could not help but have.
