You got an electric whisk and like a lot of coffee? Because you're in for a world of hurt if you're doing it by hand or don't want a table spoon of coffee or more in your drink.

Conspiracy theorists don't really use logic that you can really absorb and make sense of. Part of the attraction to conspiracy is it is much easier for some people to believe the hardship in the world is due to hostile actors or agencies rather than due to society we built being fundamentally hosed.

It's more comforting to think that if it wasn't for those evil all powerful satanists eating babies everything would be fine as opposed to the entire world is hosed because of the society we all built, live in and contribute too. One of those has a very easy solution that does not require the believer to change in any way. The other requires change.

I do believe there are plenty of hostile actors putting a lot of effort in loving things up further and keeping them hosed up so they can profit from it though. But in much more mundane ways than most conspiracy theorists believe. Mostly wealthy people influencing lawmaking and public opinion to bend things in their favor.

Oh my god, I let this play for the first few seconds and was SURE I wouldn't watch this video, and then the twist showed up and yeah..... incredibly worth my 25 minutes.

I only know Soduku from attempting it once, figuring out that same basic trick this guy uses (mark down remaining possibilities).

But this is not Sodoku. This is something much crazier and it works somehow.

Are any of them reconsidering their relation to mortality? It's the same as always, straight up denial of death, an American political mainstay for at least half a century.

I just noticed that the Guardian has reported the latest death here as "died with" even though the state and federal governments have counted it in the official numbers for covid-19 deaths. Weird.


It only counts as community transmission if they can't trace the source of the outbreak.

In the McDonald's cases, it seems to have been a delivery driver who made deliveries to all of the now closed stores. There's a case in the McDonalds cluster where a staff member had close contact with a relative (who works at a different Maccas) who tested positive for covid. I don't think it's been established yet whether either of them got it from the delivery driver.

Obviously the possibility of transmission during deliveries is something which now needs to be taken into account and a realistic infection control plan developed given that hundreds of thousands of deliveries to business take place throughout the country every day.

I assume this is a guy who drives the truck that brings them all thier food and stuff, not a UPS guy or something. When I worked fast food in high school those deliveries took an hour plus with lots of contact in enclosed spaces and handing boxes off to each other so it would make sense that would be a vector way more than dropping off occasional packages would be.

quote:

The former pharma executive tapped by President Donald Trump to lead the federal government’s hunt for a COVID-19 vaccine has more than $10 million in stock options in one of the companies receiving federal funding.

Dr Moncef Slaoui, a Belgian-American, was this week named Chief Scientist for Trump’s “Operation Warp Speed,” which aims to develop a working vaccine as fast as possible. Described across four separate filings, Slaoui has 155,438 options in Moderna.

The stake is worth $10,366,000 at Moderna’s current share price, $66.69 at the time of publication. Moderna shares have almost tripled in value during 2020. The $66.69 figure represents an increase of 184% from the $23.46 it was trading for on January 1.

Moderna’s stock surged after $400M in federal funding.

That's standard for all conspiracy theories. The antagonists are evil geniuses capable of conceiving and executing overly elaborate schemes, but also dumb enough to, say, tell the TV news that they're going to blow up a tower before it falls down.

My company just issued a pretty strict policy for social distancing, PPE/sanitization and meeting restrictions. They actually wrote out that if you fail to wear a mask, wash your hands etc you can be disciplined up to termination.

I’m glad I work for a company not run by braindead chuds that won’t tolerate idiots whining about their freedom.
