Facts and science are only political in the sense that one party doesn’t seem to believe on them. The people who are anti-trump happen to be anti-reopening because of facts and science. 

We’re really winning the pandemic bigly. 

Can they maybe just start with charging people with filing false police reports or something? I agree that shit like this should be treated as a hate crime, but there’s already a mechanism in place that we can use to punish people like her while we wait for suburban politicians to hem and haw about how this will

Oh god, I forgot about those, those were so terrible. 

Yea I hate that in the pursuit of thinner laptops, we’ve made them less functional as computers. The old MBPs were pretty heavy but were such a pleasure to use

I don’t think any of his previous stuff was quite as bad as the Dark Tower. Plus you’d think with his background from Fringe he’d have some ability to deal with the weird shit. I loved the Dark Tower series and was really looking forward to the adaptation, and then we go that shit.

My hospital has had required universal masking for over a month at this point - every hospital employee has to wear a surgical mask at all times while in the hospital, even if the patient is COVID negative and even if you’re not engaged in patient care. Obviously there was no controlled study of this, but there was

That movie somehow managed to waste pretty great source material, Idris Elba, and McConaughey. I think a TV format might be better than a movie in terms of the story and all the linked mythology across the books and other King stories. Maybe HBO can pull it off

Just to be clear, the adverse effects were primarily in the highest dose of the study. Phase I studies work by taking healthy volunteers through escalating doses of a drug or vaccine. Your goal is to find a dose range to use for studies of effectiveness. So in this case, they would use a dose lower than the one

You know how in Russia everyone has a dashcam because driving there is batshit crazy and people are always trying to scam you by jumping in front of cars? Maybe at this point we should just start having African Americans all wear body cams - because you know the cops always manage to get theirs turned off at the

Yea, but if he gets a second term, they can go to a higher court, since apparently the only qualifications you need for federal court these days are a twitter account and 1-2 hardcover books you can pound with your fist

Please show me all this authoritative information about ventilators being bad for COVID patients, and I don’t mean random youtube videos

Ugh, this just annoys me. I used a 2010 MBP until changing to the new butterfly keyboard one in 2016. I don’t absolutely hate it, but every once in a while I grab my wife’s 2014 MBP, and then I remember that the keyboard used to actually be an outstanding part of the experience rather than just something I put up

I feel like you and I live in very different realities, and yours is populated only by you and Alex Jones. 

When I feel threatened, my instinct is usually to run away, not get all up in their face. That lady is fucking nuts, I was expecting her to just pick up the dog and throw it at this poor man. When she makes that phone call, she clearly just wants to tell them to come and shoot the uppity black man please. WTF, glad

So I assume your post was sarcastic then? Sorry sometimes I can’t tell

You can easily have that opportunity. Feel free to go volunteer to do one of the many high risk essential jobs. We can send your family a picture of the freedom trench where you’re buried.

Hopefully you’re not smelling it on his breath, that would be a huge failure of social distancing 

They need to make that shirt in MAGA-red to match the hat

That would just attract some South Philly humans to climb it
