1st Gear: I’m ready to hear from Elon about how the entire GM staff are pedophiles.

It’s Elon. Teslas in Tunnels is probably super profound because it spells TITs.

Moderna said they would be ready to apply for FDA approval on November 25. With 750+ Americans dying every day, I don’t expect the FDA to hold it up for months.

My wife works for a hospital that recently had to shut down one of their wards because of the number of employees that are either infected with Covid, under mandatory quarantine, or waiting to get a second negative Covid test to be allowed to return to work. All of it can be traced to three nurses that refused to…

I think the hospital / healthcare types are some of the worst (outside of the MAGA crowd) at this point, because they’re taking the “been there, done that, got the t-shirt” stance. My mom was hospitalized for non-Covid reasons this summer and there were times that the nurses on the floor would take their masks off.…

My gf’s grandmother has died of it (she was healthy as a horse before hand), a coworkers grandmother just died of it (she was mid 60s and healthy), multiple coworkers have had it and they all spent 2-3 weeks in the hospital, neighbors got it and were the only ones i know who didnt have to be hospitalized by it. They…

2nd Gear: Please don’t travel long distances to go skiing this winter. Please don’t travel long distances for anything.

Neutral: Two more of my friends just tested positive. These were people that invited me over to watch some football last weekend, but were going to set up the TV outside so we could still be in an open-air environment. I don’ t think they’ve socialized very much since this all started, but one of them got it at work…

Makes sense, but it does seem like they had already hit the bridge and backed up to try again.  The start of the video already shows damage consistent with it having already been, almost, under the bridge.

If you look at, say, Europe’s recovery from COVID 19, or South Korea, and then look at the US .... you don’t think a better government response to reign in COVID would have had massive economic upsides?  Europe is back at work now, so is SK.

Biden can’t possibly be any more competent.

Hundreds of different insurance companies in between with a hundred different plans each and each with it’s own reimbursement scheme. Everything attached to dealing with insurances is an unnecessary expense, go single payer and one person could handle what it takes a dozen to do now. And take for profit companies out…

Yes, we changed from survival of the fittest to survival of the wealthiest.

Truth be told, citizens always pay for it. Either through subsidizing public healthcare through taxes and levies, or by private insurance/payment to supplant a lack of public healthcare.

Don’t forget the strong possibility of lifelong disability and increased susceptibility to chronic health conditions.

Hey, this is America. We can be stupid in LOTS of different ways at the same time!

Or, like every other fucking first world country, make higher educated free or extremely affordable. Theres no reason a basic 4 year degree should cost nearly as much as I paid for my house. And you still have to apply for student loans. You know what happens when you are lower income and even have good credit? They…

Its weird that individuals arent allowed to “walk away” from their commitments to the Federal government by including Federal Student loans in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, even if “market factors change” and leave them unable to procure a job that will allow them to pay for food, housing and their student loan payments,…

I stopped paying attention to this thing when Pence became the spokesman spokeslizard.
