For what it's worth, it's probably legit. They opened the investigation in 2018 and there weren't any major leaks. It's possible they tried - some poo poo was mentioned in passing on some newspapers as things progressed, but it never went overt until after the election.

Isn’t simp usually a right wing term? Which if it is, makes it extra hilarious for Big John Fetterman to use to describe them.

That’s been my understanding too, but I’ve heard some people state they’ve fallen in love with using the term recently or at least the abbreviated version. I mean regardless it’s funny in this case.

Well, someone at my husbands work tested positive for Covid, so everyone has to stay home for two weeks and get tested. Hopefully he'll be able to get unemployment again, but I have no idea how PA works. Also hopefully I'll avoid getting covid along with my husband, because gently caress that.

In my experiences with Simp on social media, it seems most often used by Incels and MRAs if you say anything positive about a woman.

I mostly see simp used to ridicule anyone who sticks up for an individual woman.

Like if a woman doctor says coronavirus is a problem, and a chud says it isn’t. If I pop in and say “dude she’s a doctor” I will get called a simp.

People have been testing positive in my office for weeks and they claim nobody had any meaningful contact with them

They are doing a decent job at keeping people separate though

I’ve seen quotes from Azar saying 3 to 4 days or hours or days. Why in the name of satan can’t they do it tonight? Like I’m confused on what the procedural requirements are. I mean if they don’t have to examine things in depth they should do it tonight or if they have to stay up all night even.

True but I mean I’m kind of just interested in the actual regulatory reasons. I mean Canada was able to do it quickly and I think we can at least give them the benefit of it’s not Boris Johnson or Donald Trump. Not that I like Justin, but it’s not like the Canadian is infested with sycophants as badly.

Mine just says they will take further measures if significant internal transmission is present.

Then defined probable internal transmission in such a way that you would probably need to lick your co-workers to meet it.
