Woofer posted:Step 1: read some of the letters the kids wrote Hey Cole, I know you sometimes feel super depressed and alone. I just want to say that you've got a friend in me anytime you need help, whether its someone to talk to or a place to vacation here in southern Sweden. And its all thanks to you being the kind of guy who looks at depressing poo poo like this and tries to organize help for the people suffering instead of looking away or making up excuses why that isn't real suffering or some poo poo (I'm not saying that this applies to anyone else in here, cause it really doesn't). Thanks to you, I'm trying to get as many friends and family as I can to join me in making the lives of these poor kids a little less horrible. Don't ever think you are all alone when you have the power to sway people across the planet like this.

Only 4 people have been elected to be the DA of NY County in 78 years. Its probably the most powerful local jurisdiction in the country. I don't see that happening absent an almost literal smoking gun scenario.

mlmp08 posted:https://twitter.com/covid19tracking/status/1333931879108661248?s=21 My mom and 3 aunt's are all in healthcare around Puget Sound or one Boise and one in SE Alaska. My fiance just started nannying for a doctor in Olympia where we're at. On our Thanksgiving Zoom call as we went around and talked how everyone is doing, it was pretty much a role call of "Yeah Kaiser hospitals are getting pretty drat full." "Boise is the fullest it's ever been." "Peninsula is not looking good." The worst though is the doctor in Olympia, apparently he's holding the phone for patients last video calls with their families and they are sending patients that are stable to Oregon hospitals apparently. Ancedotal, but, his estimate of survival rate once people are admitted to the ICU is around 10%. Stay safe, stay home, review your bubble with people through honest conversation.

My fiance just started nannying for a doctor in Olympia where we're at. 10% is what they told my dad is the survival rate of people on ventilators. ICU survival is higher, but if you're bad enough for a vent your chances are slim. This is, in part, because they do not vent now unless you're dire.

I don't see that happening absent an almost literal smoking gun scenario. Yeah, I’m just concerned he’s going to fly out of the country and never come back. Hell I wouldn’t even put it past him “converting to Judaism” and claiming right of return in Israel...actually I could see Jared and Ivanka (who obviously don’t need to convert) doing that too. Edit: I know the Meyer Lansky exception and a few recent ones, but I don’t recall the details enough off hand.

Woofer posted:How dumb is it to rent a car and drive to Ohio to a house with like 5 people? I got invited this year and made a sad resolution last Christmas that I wouldn’t spend this Christmas alone. But it’s not a resolution worth dying over. I'm thinking acceptable to medium-dumb. Very good that you're driving and not flying, semi-bad that you're not just videocalling, bad to very bad about the house. I'm feeling the sad/lonely thing, so I get it, and I'll be driving to separately see my mom/dad like I did for Thanksgiving (15 and 30 minutes away). How active are these five people in the house and how serious are they taking preventative measures? Do they all work at home? Do you trust them enough to believe what they say about the measures they're taking? Will they/you get tested beforehand? Is that more like a household of 5 people, or five households of one person? And do you have family that you could potentially spread to? Woofer posted:what are the odds of travel prices across the board skyrocketing after a mass produced vaccine gets distributed? Are airlines going to claim how broke they are and lay a bunch of people off right before the biggest rush for tickets in probably our lifetime? I really don't know. The vaccine rollout will be slow and there probably won't be a magic date when everyone gets good again, until primarily summer. There will be an absolute shitpile of demand, but it likely won't be all at once. The airlines will hire back hella people once that happens though.

Even when the vaccines are produced, it's going to take a number of months to get them distributed. So you won't see a sharp travel spike. And business travel may come back slower so you won't see the same peaks. As for claiming how broke they are, they always do that. They will always claim poverty. But they aren't likely to do another round of layoffs just yet.

There’s way too many variables for me to guarantee safety so I’m 99% sure I’m going to pass on going. It just sucks to spend another Christmas alone (like I have for the last six? or so years save for one horrible trip back home a couple years ago). I’m tired of being lonely on the loving holidays. Sorry, this is all irrelevant and I’ll take it to another thread.

The more pure and thus vastly better 24k gold version is a mere $1000. Getting a pair that are harmonically synchronized is $3000.

Even after he dies there’s going to be a vocal minority that won’t shut the gently caress up about him. Or maybe fortunately since people are probably going to have legit withdrawals if he stopped getting coverage. I’m genuinely interested in reading about the mental health impacts of him not being around anymore.

I think people that didn't vote for him will no longer care what he has to say since he's no longer President and not able to directly impact their lives with his bullshit. He's not even out yet and he's starting to lose Twitter followers in droves. I think he will continue to be prominent in Right Wing media but scarcely mentioned on everything else.
