I’m sure that if one of these guys were shot by the police for exercising their second amendment right, the NRA would be all over it. Every single time that a non-white person was shot by the police while carrying a lawful firearm, the NRA has pushed to make sure that the second amendment is applied equally and that

There’s a tremendous amount of stuff that pediatricians monitor at every well-visit in the first 2-3 years of life that’s really hard to do by telehealth and too important to avoid. Accurate height and weight to monitor for growth, head circumference. There are also physical exam things like checking that the soft

I don’t really get what there is to be threatened by. Every sport changes with time - new equipment, new training, new strategies, rule changes, even just knowing what is possible and what to strive for. Nobody is going to forget MJ or think any less of his legacy. The GOAT debates are always the worst. 

And now I guess if any of those people are still alive, we’re going to sacrifice them again, because fuck old people, I want my stock holdings to go up

We did those things for the white people who were fighting, and in this war it’s mostly the non-white people who are dying, so none of those things will happen. You can bet your ass that if this virus were primarily making its way through the suburban Karens, nobody would be returning to work

I predict this insurrection will quickly stop once it’s too hot to be outside without AC. The sun may not wipe out the coronavirus, but it will definitely chase these idiots back under their rock. 

Devin Nunes is really taking the House shutdown hard

I guess where the Black Lives Matter protests went wrong was in not having enough dancing. 

We don’t have a car so have always relied on online deliveries for a lot of dry goods and such. But it’s definitely more expensive for meat and produce - our food budget has more than doubled. I can’t complain, we can afford it, and we’re tipping very well and trying not to make the delivery guy’s life more difficult.

In the process of handing over the fake key created just for the ceremony, the Space Force also inadvertently revealed the location of their only weapon

At this point, I expect at least one of there things to happen at this conference:

McCray has a pretty good range of experience, although the stuff she has done with ThriveNYC isn’t anything impressive.  It just sucks that the discussion now is going to be about her being his wife more than anything else that she might accomplish, which is a good reason not to pick your wife or kids or relatives to

It kind of figures that if you’re stupid enough to vote for Trump and still be supporting him at that point, you’re stupid enough to drink bleach.

We went through this shit in the great depression and again in the great recession. Stop voting for people whose greatest worry at times of extreme hardship is that if we help keep people from destitution, that entire society will collapse because we will no longer be business-friendly or whatever bullshit they’re

Well, my family income currently comes in large part from taking care of patients with COVID-19, and I have a very selfish interest in myself and my partner staying alive and my child not being orphaned. The faster we can bring the viral cases down, the safer my family will be - but so will everyone else’s

Unfortunately “doctors and trained people” also form a spectrum, with one end being stupid. I’m in some facebook physician groups related to COVID19, and for every useful post sharing information that can impact patient care, there are 5 posts from random dermatologists or physician assistants with bullshit

There you go trying to use your liberal elite math and numbers to argue with people who would rather just go with their gut.

I mean, I have an MD and a PhD in cell biology plus took multiple graduate courses on vaccine development, but the fuck do I know?

There’s also the very obvious question of how strong the protective immunity is. Not all viral infections can get full protective immunity, either with vaccines or natural infections. It’s an RNA virus that should mutate reasonably quickly. I would not make any public policy decisions based on the idea of people being
