Yep. But as long as blue states seem to be the hardest hit, I don’t think he’ll care.

It won’t be. There will always be other people to blame (Obama, the Democrats, China) and talking points to repeat (help the economy, we’re the best, close the borders), and that will be enough, at least for his supporters.

Having a bunch of older people with Covid-19 in the hospitals will also lead to their children and grandchildren dying from causes that should be easily prevented.

no recollection of how I got there or how many spider eggs are eventually going to hatch inside me

So essentially the PD said “this is fine with us, go right ahead” and the message was received loud and clear.

I live in Massachusetts and am expecting that schools will remain closed. If we succeed in flattening the curve, we’re also going to extend the duration of the pandemic. I’m not really expecting it to be over by June.

Oh, this happened to me yesterday. I’m glad to learn that it was just a mistake because I couldn’t figure out what was supposed to be spammy about my post.

Hunter has asked the judge to spare his wife jail time, which was nice of him, considering he spent a hell of a lot of time sleeping with other women.

So the better solution is to have people enter the chamber to vote in groups of 10? That seems like a deeply dumb approach.

Since 2016 it’s been specifically for Trump.

I think this is going to be good for the Pats. Brady was incredible, but he’s not the QB he used to be, and I think the end is in sight. It’s time to see if Belichick can work his magic with another young player. It was amazing to be a Pats fan in the era of Brady, but those times aren’t returning.

Since 2016, the whole point of right wing media has been to ensure that Trump does’t get blamed for anything. I strongly suspect that they’re going to be able to pull it off again. His supporters are unwilling to believe that anything could be Trump’s fault.

Tofu is fantastic and very flexible/easy to prepare, and there are lots of good ways to prepare red lentils. And chickpeas are, of course, fantastic.

Boston, MA, where I live, has the same reputation for aggressiveness (they don’t call us Massholes for nothing), but I think it’s really mostly too many cars on a really poorly design road network.

When life’ got me down, I think about the fact that Harvey Weinstein is going to die in prison, and I feel ever so slightly better.

Monuments to slavers and traitors: the only participation trophies the GOP can really get behind.

He’s really trying to pretend that he was wearing the gas mask for any reason other than to mock people who were concerned about the virus? What a douchebag. Didn’t he get his seat because of family connections despite some sort off scandal (drunk driving or something similar)?

Disappointing but not surprising. They started trying to walk it back from day one.

I’m not a lawyer, but this seems bizarre. Harvey Weinstein should pay his lawyers; that’s not the job of his victims.

I’ll bet almost anything that judges will disproportionately consider Black offenders to be “incorrigible”.
