Yeah, I don't get it at all. We didn't beat this thing, we got bored of it. And while it is true that it doesn't seem as contagious as we originally thought, a big part of why it slowed down was because every office, church, concert, sporting event, bar, restaurant, etc all shut down. Getting back in big groups for extended periods of time is exactly what we know we shouldn't be doing but gotta get that haircut and a drink at the bar and then go to church in the morning.

Fun fact. The "don't drink" thing with antibiotics actually started because people with syphilis would still be infectious for a week after starting a course. So to stop people from going out to get drunk and laid they would lie and say to not drink while taking them. Alcohol had no interactions with the drugs that would stop its efficacy.

This isn't true with all antibiotics now and you can have adverse reactions with some but that's how it started. Do not use this as an excuse to get loaded while taking your meds.

I say we officially put it on C-SPAM's summer reading list. Here it is so you can avoid the paywall. I know this post is long. But it's worth it. Every word is a subtle teacher to the soul. I added some relevant images to break up the text a little

this entire article ftw

quote:

“I live an hour away and was driving in this morning, only me on the road, and I was thinking, ‘Am I doing the right thing?’ ” she said through a mask. “And you see some out there jogging, no mask on. I think their confidence is rising.”

quote:

“If this is risking my life, then I’ve been risking my life going to Costco,” said Betty Luke. “I went to the antique mall yesterday on Highway 9 and it was just like — it was like freedom. We have to get out. We have to live in this world, and if we don’t —”

“It’s not living,” said Holland, who checked her nail color — “Oh I love it!” — paid $32 and began to put on a surgical mask, but then decided not to.

quote:

“I’m getting my nails done tomorrow — screw it,” said a nurse drinking a glass of wine on a bench after work, as the order of the morning was collapsing into the results of a thousand individual decisions.

On the sprawling green plaza, people began gathering elbow-to-elbow on blankets and lawn chairs, opening beers and bottles of wine.

“I think you have to live life,” said Jeff Lampel, taking a sip of beer.

“When you start seeing where the cases are coming from and the demographics — I’m not worried,” agreed his friend Scott Friedel.

“I know what people are going to say — 'Those selfish idiots are killing our old people!’ ” said Lampel.

“How do you give up a day like this — really, how?” Friedel said, enjoying the last rays of sun as the music kept playing and the crowds kept coming.

It's really hit and miss around here so if I do have to go in to a store I just take advantage of being work from home and go midweek right around the time they open when they aren't busy. Admit I haven't tried a Walmart or Target type place but it works great for the hardware store and Sam's Club.

Of course. I was not advocating taking real medicine with alcohol, merely joking that if you're going to take CSPAM or Trump you might as well gently caress yourself up.

quote:

Earlier this week, Paul Hudson, CEO of French pharmaceutical giant Sanofi, told Bloomberg News that if Sanofi develops a vaccine, doses would likely go to Americans first. Hudson said this was understandable, given the U.S. had financially supported its research.

The comments outraged the French government and provoked an uproar in France. "For us, it would be unacceptable for there to be privileged access of any country based on financial reasons," French Deputy Finance Minister Agnès Pannier-Runacher told Radio Sud.


https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2020/apr/09/facebook-posts/trump-has-tiny-financial-stake-company-manufacture/

quote:

Trump has a small stake through a mutual fund in Sanofi, a French company that makes hydroxychloroquine.

The president’s holdings in Sanofi are valued at up to $1,500, meaning he would not stand to profit much from the company’s stock performance.

Experts told us that Trump’s holdings do not violate federal conflict of interest laws.

...

The president’s latest financial disclosure form indicates that he holds shares in the mutual fund through three different family trusts. The value of each of those holdings is between $1,001 and $15,000, which would put Trump’s stake in Sanofi at "between about $100 and $1,500 in total," the Washington Post reported.

"That Sanofi investment would therefore constitute between 0.000003 and 0.00005 percent of Trump’s net worth," the newspaper wrote. "If you were worth $100,000, it would be like worrying about the nickel in your pocket."

I know this was a while back but why do all conservatives only know how to record video if it's in their cars?

Not going to lie, a car generally has good features for recording:

- Dashboard makes a stable camera platform
- Car interior has noise-dampening features
- Lots of windows with a tinted sun/moonroof(if available) provide ample and natural diffuse lighting
- Generally there's little to no environmental care about how much gas is used to air condition the whole interior, but despite it being sunny and warm, the interior is climate-controlled

I mean, you can still gently caress up color balancing, audio direction, and other recording aspects, but a ton of off-the-shelf auto-adjustments go into smartphones so they can automatically do better than some know-nothing yutz who bought a fancy camera and plays with all the setting without know what they do or why.

goons please share your regional anecdotes so we can plan the eventual cspam beanlord compound

obviously anywhere rural is a boon for avoiding the plague but it has to be the kind of rural with not TOO many chud militias. nh has plenty but i think we could probably arm some of the local left-leaning opiate addicts (there are more than you think) to counter the chud influence
