The way that they found the mutation is a good example of where medicine is headed. Right now, the standard of genetic diagnosis for patients with immunodeficiencies is a genetic analysis of a panel of genes (around 100) that are known to cause immunodeficiency.

Huh, now i get why their new motto is “Turning lemons into lemonade since 2007"

The worst part of the night was when he was basically trying to blame Asperger’s for his behavior. Dude, being on the spectrum doesn’t make you act like an inconsiderate asshole. Being an inconsiderate asshole makes you act like one. 

Maritime law is second in complexity only to bird law

The ~1000 number was for the Tread. I saw somewhere that they had sold something like 125,000 Tread+ in the U.S, which is still a pretty high rate of reported incidents

A lot of it is military aid, which is not super helpful in a pandemic. And you can view helping the rest of the world as an investment - our economy isn’t going to go back to normal until we no longer have to worry about being reinfected with variants coming from all the countries that can’t control their outbreaks

A seatbelt is like a bootstrap for your torso

This is stupid. It’s a way for the rich countries to look like they’re doing something to help the rest of the world, without actually doing anything. This isn’t grandma’s secret chocolate chip cookie recipe, where the secret ingredient is lard. The manufacturing for the vaccines is pretty complex, as is the quality…

They call it trickle down economics

I can’t wait to see how this becomes incorporated into the Quanon mythology

The melted cheese from the tuna melts really does a number on the dishwasher

This is like the Geocities website about alien conspiracies I made for a school assignment in the late 1990s, had I been able to figure out how to also have it display my racist uncle’s livejournal

Damn right. Dewey Decimal or you might as well just set it all on fire

None of those people seem to be wearing a mask and probably don’t believe in the Covid vaccine.  Maybe the ‘rona will get them before they die of racist bone disease

I’m pretty sure he’s just going to get auctioned off to someone who is looking to eat a rare lobster

That’s a big part of why large companies have compliance officers and entire compliance departments. But maybe that got cut along with the PR department

When they arrest him, I hope they make an exception and put him in Rikers instead of some federal joint

How does Devin Nunes’ cow feel about this?
