Donald Trump makes Joe Biden exciting.

I still say it bears an uncanny resemblance to the whales’ ship from Star Trek IV.

So, like chicken pox reactivating to cause shingles later in life? Or just some tests that are giving false negatives for people who haven’t fully recovered?

Ironically enough, these fake coronavirus cures are probably less dangerous than most of the ideas Alex Jones usually peddles.

I get it. Biden wasn’t one of my top 10 candidates when the primary started, and I can’t say that I’m really all that thrilled that he’s now the de facto nominee. He’s not going to usher in a world of progressive change. In fairness, he is taking some baby steps with proposals to open up Medicare for more people and…

Woohoo! That graduate-level course in experimental design for social sciences finally paid off!

As far as I can tell, it’s mainly “Trust me, I was Obama’s VP!” and “I’ve been in politics since before most of you were born! Now get the hell off my lawn!”

Rape allegations from 30 years ago, a desire to return to the old status quo (that didn’t work well for a lot of people) and possible cognitive decline. Or seriously unwise political choices at the height of the Cold War, lots of ambiguity on how he’s going to provide everything that’s been promised and material…

Eh, I blame corporate America using the big, scary Obamacare as an excuse for forcing more of the costs of health coverage onto employees, instead of accepting that their labor costs might actually go up a little bit. Obamacare was far from perfect, but this is more about artificially depressing labor costs than…

That bear is more socially responsible than half my damn neighbors.

Sadly, it’s being run like Trump’s casinos in Atlantic City - embarrassingly poorly, yet somehow still to his personal benefit.

More specifically, it’s Medicare for the uninsured with COVID19. Those of us with shitty, useless high deductible plans are still pretty much screwed if we get it.

Man, makes me wish I could ditch my high-deductible plan for some sweet government-sponsored coronavirus care. I’m pretty sure I’ll be on the hook for my full $10k annual out of pocket max if that shit lands me in the ICU.

We can only hope.

March 2020 felt like September 2001 on steroids.

I bought into the beard fad a few years back. It was a hot, itchy mess at first. And stopping it from being a hot, itchy mess ended up becoming more effort and expense than just shaving every day.

The term “gaslighting” comes immediately to mind.

That’s what I never understood about Prop 65 warnings. Without context, they’re beyond useless. There’s no differentiation between “this item contains a carcinogen substance in a volatile form, and being near it for extended periods of time may be legitimately harmful” and “you would need to grind up and eat two pairs…

Relax, Dan. It’s a pandemic respiratory illness that has a 1% mortality rate, not a zombie apocalypse.

While well-intentioned, I see this ending up like Prop 65 warnings on 75% of the stuff sold in CA. It likely won’t change much, and just reinforce the fatalistic sense of how screwed we are.
