Obligatory Heavy Rain post. Although I thought the game was one of the most intense virtual experiences I've ever forced myself through, I did in fact enjoy it. But it really pushed me to question myself on how far I would go to save the life of a loved one. I killed a guy in his daughters' bedroom. I drove 5 miles…

enough said. euugh

It's trolls all the way down at this point. Somebody needs to start doing some damn moderating over there, I'm getting sick of seeing the same four or five assholes consistently dominating the conversation with their wide eyed faux-confusion and thinly veiled racism.

This desire for vindication and blood that seems to be popular in the US when it comes systemic issues actually ends up hurting African-Americans, more than it gives any sense of "justice."

Well. Thank fucking goodness.

The doctors and medical staff who are dealing with this epidemic in Africa are getting infected because they are using a lot of suboptimal protective equipment and not completely complying with all of the safety protocols necessary to protect yourself in these field quarantine hospitals. They must wear layers of…

I think a CDC spokeswoman hit the nail on the head. She said that this outbreak has already peaked. And since most flights to the first world out of west Africa go through Paris, that's our canary in the coalmine. And there have been zero reported cases in Paris. The suspected case in Manhattan was a false alarm…

These selfish dimwits, spearheaded by Trump, don't seem to realize that we actually have had Ebola on our soil - in addition to dozens of fatal and highly contagious viruses that have called the US home for decades. There are highly secure labs that have been experimenting with the virus for years. Not to mention…

Yes.

Derp Derp.

Seriously people. If you're going to freak out about hemorrhagic fevers, stick to Hantavirus and Dengue Fever. Way more prevalent in this hemisphere.

And let's face it - if this group can treat them, if they can find new ways to increase odds, whatever, it will save a lot more lives elsewhere. Also, god forbid, if this facility isn't as secure as they think, I think it's better to have it with ebola (which is harder to spread) than something like a mutated SARS…

America, the land of people who are always sure they know better than everyone else, even professionals or people who have dedicated their whole life to studying a particular topic.

Since I believe that is the hospital that had HUGE problems with drug resistant infections in the past (which are WAY more scary, IMO) and developed new protocol based on that experience, I think we can be safe we will learn something.

While we work toward the world we want, we still have to live in the world we have. This is a cautionary tale as much as it is a story about an asshole.

We're demonizing lying scumbags who intentionally harmed other people, not HIV+ folks in general. If you can't figure that difference out, you have a problem.

do we REALLY need to add asterisks and clauses to things that should be painfully obvious when taken in context? Also: there are female condoms. Lesbians (I am one of these FYI) also use male condoms, cutting them for use as dental dams. Stop being so nitpicky and smug, please.

I cannot agree with the statement that they should not be obligated to disclose. How can you put the onus onto someone who doesn't have all the facts disclosed to them? I agree that you should always use condoms for casual sex, but condoms are not perfect and if someone does not wish to take the risk of sleeping with…

My thought is that you report him to the Dept. of Health. Anonymously, of course.
