Most Americans live in areas with a massive racial underclass even if most of America is empty land with whites in it

will putting my mask in soapy (dish soap? laundry detergent?) water and then rinsing then hanging it to dry be enough or do I need to like soak it in bleach or something (tx mr prez) to make sure it’s sanitized?

I don’t wanna put it in the washing machine

can your oven be set to ~212 F? if so you can stick it in there (on a plate or something) for 30 minutes to sanitize it.

It's class poo poo 100% of the time, and class and race are inextricably linked. People seeing it as racial poo poo are correct, but it's an incomplete understanding. Just because the understanding is incomplete does not mean it is wrong.

  • Mentions divorce attorney in first sentence
  • Gets a puppy from a breeder, because she was feeling guilty about not loving her daughter enough
  • Complains about it being a puppy, including (the horror) gnawing on a piano bench!
  • Makes it nine loving days before giving up and returning the puppy to the breeder
  • Hinda Mandell, a Boston-area native, is associate professor in the School of Communication at RIT in Rochester, New York. She is a co-editor, most recently, of "Nasty Women and Bad Hombres: Gender and Race in the 2016 US Presidential Election." Her website is omghinda.com.

Why would you get a pandemic puppy? It would just become a plague dog later.

People on reddit are saying that if you only have a small number of potential infections among a large population you can swab like 100 people at once, throw the swabs in a hopper and then reagent the whole batch at once, which is a lot faster, with most batches being negative but as soon as one batch turns positive you can go back to those 100 people and test them individually, and you can do this concurrently with local lock downs i.e. test whole city blocks at one, then lock down the blocks with positives for further testing, so it's not going to be like the US testing and reagenting each swab one at a time and they can do a massive number of tests in a short time.

i think this was a thing they developed / did back in Vietnam or Korea or ww2 when looking for syphilis infections in are troops

take all the blood samples from a platoon or something and mix a small amout of each in a single test and if that goes positive do it again at a smaller scale

It's probably really smart if you do this by block because once you know at least one person is positive you probably want to lock down the whole block anyway, regardless of which individual person turns out to have tested positive.

The US will eventually do this, but use a single q-tip for the entire block.
