does that mean if I get it, I'll be straight again? Or really, asexual?

OH MY GOD PROBLEM SOLVED:
Krispy Kreme offering free daily doughnut for the rest of 2021 to those who receive COVID-19 vaccine I'm not kidding. This is how you win Unitedstateseans. KRISPY KREEEEME!! |
Krispy Kreme is a nightmare, alongside Dunkin's and all possible other doughnut places.
I have two experiences with KK: Negative: the doughnuts suck Positive: I remember a Krispy Kreme delivery lady was hitting on me terribly hard when I worked on a gas station in Baltimore. Too bad she was not very good looking. |

Just put the vaccines in beer and re-open the bars, and you'd probably secretly get the anti-vaxxers as well as normal people.

There's an offical case or cases of Covid-19 in the building I live in now, just two floors above me. How do I know? When I got home today, there was a single sheet on a column in the mezzanine that tells people not to enter that particular apartment.
Also: Two nights ago I urged some of the inhabitants of this building to wear a goddamn mask in all the public spaces of the building (corridors, elevators, laundry room) via an online forum - something they should have been doing for months now, there are even signs on the entrance urging people to enter only with a mask on. Maybe something will change now, but my hopes aren't high. ![]() |
or maybe they all FUCKIN DIE ALREADY :D
maskholes are the worst. got tired of relying on them and got me a p100 respirator so they can all fuck themselves while i breathe free. |

Yes, they are. And they spread like wildfire. Spread being the operative word. If there's anything I've taken away from the past year, it's that society is kind of a failed experiment. I joked to a fellow DJane/musician/host of events today that I'm really curious about how the first set of events after that pandemic is over/there's been widespread vaccination (still seems like a pipe dream right now) is going to be, because I don't know whether I'll be able to fully socialize again or just tell everyone to fuck off. It was gallows humor to take the edge off some tense times of course, but a part of me feels like there might be an inkling of truth to it. |

^ That's fucked up too, though. You'd expect Democrats to be 100% on this - what the fuck are 13% of them thinking? I forget the specific figure right now, but for this shit to work, something like 85% of the population needs to get vaccinated, right? I understand not everybody is a (D) or an (R), but with these percentages of morons "not planning on" :rolleyes: receiving the vaccine the U.S. will never get there, despite the Biden administration's megatonic efforts. |
what about the GOP Women, Mitchy-poop? Do you hate women?

One of my uncles tested positive now. This came shortly after my aunt had a positive home-testkit result that was kind of voided by a subsequent negative lab-test. My mother tested herself after having been in their garden for a short time recently, where my uncle just "passed by". I told her that she might still call the service number, just in case. She was like "No, we barely had contact. We didn't even speak. And I tested negative at home. It should be alright.". Hope she's right.
Maybe I'm a bit overly tense right now, but the overall atmosphere of nonchalantness kind of baffles me. Especially when it comes from family members or friends I care about. On the upside: From what I gather, my father should be getting his first Moderna shot one of these days. So maybe I can see him in two months or so. |
Your mother should get a "real" test ASAP, Antagon. "We barely had contact" is contact, and that's all it takes.

Those home testkits are a nifty tool of convenience, but they aren't as reliable as many think they are. All they really do is tell you whether your viral load is at a point where you're really contagious. And then, results may vary. |

What the fuck is up with this freedom of choice for the military anyway? Full Metal Jacket-wannabe drill instructors kill cadets every year by forcing them to comply with inhumane orders, but soldiers can't be ordered to get a damn vaccine?

Many Republicans are Marines, I see.
I'm RCAF. We have a "vaccination parade" this month. I'm actually allowed to refuse, which I think is bullshit. But I lean Dem*, so of course I will have it. *How the fuck did I stay in the military for 40 years? |
Fareed Zakaria's latest Washington Post column, this time on something we've been talking about for some time, so I'd strike the word "new" from the headline (although it's true that now there's more cold hard data to back it up):

So for reasons I won't bore you with, I spent the last two years without cable, getting all my news and movies and TV shows online, watching it all on my notebook. Now the cable's back (good GOD I hate the new menus, what kind of douchebag designed that flashy horror), the first channel I watch is BBC News (international edition, I suppose), a guy's reporting from a street in a place called... Cheltenham, I think (I think), anyway there's a bunch of people walking around and shit and NOBODY'S WEARING MASKS WHAT IN ALL THAT IS FUCK IS WRONG WITH THEM. OK, "nobody" is an exaggeration, but over half those mooks, mostly old timers, were maskless. Expect cases in the UK to skyrocket again after the recent "good" numbers, I guess... :confused::mad:
|
Nah, wearing masks outside has never been a mandate here. Inside you'll see everyone wearing them. I reckon in the past six months I've seen a handful of people not wearing masks. Which is kinda surprising as I'd expect more douche bags around.
So our numbers are plummeting given that no it feels like most people don't wear masks outside. This by the way, is absolutely not a defence of how shoddily the government have dealt with this whole situation (vaccine roll-out aside). Just an observation. |
Quote:
Leaving the wearing masks outside issue, it's the same here, actually: an incompetent government (despite the praised vaccine rollout) taking half-assed measures, but, without making a false equivalence, if nobody waiting in line for ANYTHING ever keeps their distance then fuck this, we'll never see the end of the pandemonium. |
![]() This is a quote posted on social media by probably the most prominent news show in Austria yesterday. It was too powerful not to share. Allow me to translate: "It is really strenuous. One year in, we're all really gasping for air. Recently, there has a been a situation that really got to me. It was a 37-year-old patient that had me struggling for two night shifts. He was in a very bad shape. And at 5 in the morning, after I had peformed the last venipuncture, I had to tell him that he won't make it - that his lungs are failing and that we have to put him into an induced coma. The patient was deathly afraid and started to cry. And it was there, after 22 years on the job, that I had reached a point were I got goosebumps and joined him in crying. It was horrible. He then asked me those questions, like: "Am I going to wake up again? It is too early, I can't die yet. Am I ever going to leave this room again?" I am trying to raise awareness. But some are incorrigible. That angers me. All of those ignorant people anger me. Comments on social media by people who think they know better, anger me. People who go out to protest against the measures, get sick themselves and then wind up in my care, anger me. All of this is madness." - Barbara Lindner, Intensive Care Nurse in Vienna |
^ Unfortunately, that sums it up. Everything made worse by the human condition.

Now they're saying the vaccine killed DMX, because of course they are.
