As a former Girl Scout I thought it was weird to make a loop that tightens when you pull on it and use that for a door pull. As opposed to a loop that doesn’t slip.

 Still, with Tulsa County seeing what its health director called “steep upward trends” of coronavirus cases, it’s a little worrying that the 74-year-old president, the oldest person to hold executive office, chose to gather his own super-spreader event. Is he OK? Is he trying to get out of a second term?

Exactly. This is a case where, sure, in an ideal world, the ideal amount of waste would be $0. Nobody’s in favor of errors and waste.

The IRS–wait, let me sure I’ve got this—purposefully sent stimulus checks to more than 1 million dead people? [Politico]

lol Trump is going to run out of “SS” personnel by his 3rd rally. 

Oh, I also was bored and fell into a wiki hole, so I know why they went with the weird racist theme for Splash Mountain: the guy who did the character design for Song of the South also did it for America Sings, an attraction in the former Carousel of progress that was shutting down around the time Splash Mountain was…

This was my favorite ride. And when I took my kids to Disney for the first time not too long ago, it was their fave, too. So happy they’re making this change—In another win, I’ll also note that the “Imagineer” leading the switchover is a black woman: Charita Carter—the change has been in the works for over a year.

Oh let’s not go quoting the NY Post. 

Those ropes were not tied the same way that his was tied. they have the loop but not the wrapping thing above it that is found in nooses

You seem to be confusing the findings of the FBI with the findings of the New York Post, which I wouldn’t recommend. 

I have given birth to none. I have fostered seven in my home. I have financially supported two Africans throughout their childhood. I am auntie to none by blood, I am auntie to at least 10 otherwise. I have pics of Japanese, Ethiopian and Caucasian kids on my mantel right now. But I take great care NOT to elevate…

Couple of points here:

This is what I refer to as a “This is who we are shitting on today” post

World class clickbait. I’m not being facetious. 

Combined it’s about 48K and a population of like 75 million. Considering the US population is 330 million the UK/Sweden equivalent would be a little over 200K dead and 1.5 million infected.

Hey the US isnt the ONLY wealthy country that said “Fuck it let them die.”

Craig McLean wrote that the “degree of damage is high, drew international media visibility and embarrassment, generated confusion with the public NOAA is charged to protect relating to immediate safety of live and property, and difficult to imagine a higher degree of insult.”

If rigorous scientific studies prove the claims are mistaken, well fine.

Given that people with lupus and rheumatoid arthritis are already on these drugs and have been for years, many of them, and have still gotten sick and died from Covid-19, what do you base the idea that prophylactic use could ward off or decrease the severity for the pandemic off of?
