shovelbum posted:things wont "all go to hell", it mostly kills or severely sickens people old enough that no one gives a gently caress, if they triage covid straight to "go home and die" nothing will be overwhelmed and this will be a shameful and obscure epidemic like TB in prisons` Except it’s still a virus we still don’t know a ton about. See the ever increasing number of kids developing kawasaki syndrome.

shovelbum posted:people who get into tools for the sake of the tool and not for its suitability for the task get way too hung up on the care and cleaning though. like it becomes a totem like cleaning your gun in the military where it has no bearing in fact. tho ofc the maintenance is real to an extent, it's more like "more than none" and not YOU WASHED MY CAST IRON PAN?!?!?!!?! well yeah, I have cast iron as well. it's funny though to watch part of it. "hand wash and oil" is more like "don't put in the drat dishwasher and once a year oil it" Just as maintain leather is "don't get salt water on it and oil the drat thing once a year"

Like 10% of the USA believes that vaccines are a plot to give their kids autism and about 30% seem to think that corona is a hoax to embarrass trump. This country is so lovely it's not salvageable, and that's without even considering how many americans' morality is exclusively might makes right. Just a loving festering septic tank of a country.

Yes, boomers might know less on how to operate the machines, but zoomers are no better in fixing the things when they break. If you grew up using computers heavily in the 70's-90's, you had to put up with and figure out a lot of bullshit just to get things running regularly. Nowadays things generally just work on the basic consumer level or you throw it in the garage and buy something new.

How to win a eleckshyun, by your friend Zberan Madowinty: 1) Play this clip over and over. Perhaps festoon it with Trump doing dumb poo poo (this is left as an exercise to the reader, but not a hard one) https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/1260962024240144384 I know the DNC has to run it through some focus groups and bring in a couple lanyard boys, but try to rush this one guys? You know, maybe you can conclude your studies before November on if a major health professional saying "We're in deep poo poo" about the worst crisis America has faced in 40 years is effective or not?
