I don't get it, is there some reason you should still be masking even if vaccinated now? I still do it, because a lot of places here will refuse you service and that's fair, because there's no way to accurately verify vaccination status anyway. Is it because people think CDC guidance is more powerful than it is? That dumbasses who aren't gonna vaccinate are gonna magically stop masking just because the CDC said "vaccinated people are gonna be fine"?

There is definitely a portion of the population who wouldn't/wont get a vaccine, but wore a mask due to social pressure or local/business rules.

You also can still get covid with the vaccine but will most likely be asymptotic. The Yankees, for example, are up to 9 vaccinated staff with covid. My understanding of transmission from an infected vaccinated individual is probably reduced but I’m not taking chances until we hit herd immunity. (Lol I’m wearing a mask forever)

I won't be unmasking, even with my aborted fetus J&J 5g microchip vaccination that gives miscarriages at 20 paces. I use a gaiter though, so I can blow my menstrual cycle disrupting nanomachines through the fabric and onto unsuspecting walmart shoppers. But actually because I refuse to shave my monster beard, I double up in close confines with a surgical mask underneath.

And the added anonymity is a nice side effect of constant masking. gently caress the inevitable security state.

The vaccine doesn't provide complete immunity, so you could be vaccinated and still be an asymptomatic carrier. You should continue to wear masks in public situations because masks are more effective at preventing the wearer from spreading illness to others than they are at protecting the wearer from illness. Keep wearing your mask in public for other people's sake.

They need to accelerate the research on the possibility that long term affects of COVID can affect your junk's ability to get up. Nobody cares about other people but I dont know a single man who wants his dicks to be lame.

This poo poo's probably just online bickering. The 70-80% reasonable people in the country recognize that even if wearing a mask only marginally helps a vaccinated person, it does zero harm. Online chuds are just trying to spin it into it being "psychological harm" because they're brain broken.

A poo poo ton of us got sick with the common cold in late September after we finished 4 weeks of liberty. Truly surprised how fast it ripped through the crew. Thank God it wasnt Covid, poo poo spreads so fast in a metal box. I'll be wearing my mask inside of buildings for quite awhile.

Long Before Divorce, Bill Gates Had Reputation for Questionable Behavior

Melinda French Gates voiced concerns about her husband’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein and a harassment claim against his money manager. He also had an affair with an employee.

quote:

Long after they married in 1994, Mr. Gates would on occasion pursue women in the office.

In 2006, for example, he attended a presentation by a female Microsoft employee. Mr. Gates, who at the time was the company’s chairman, left the meeting and immediately emailed the woman to ask her out to dinner, according to two people familiar with the exchange.

“If this makes you uncomfortable, pretend it never happened,” Mr. Gates wrote in an email, according to a person who read it to The New York Times.

The woman was indeed uncomfortable, the two people said. She decided to pretend it had never happened.

A year or two later, Mr. Gates was on a trip to New York on behalf of the Gates Foundation. He was traveling with a woman who worked for the foundation. Standing with her at a cocktail party, Mr. Gates lowered his voice and said: “I want to see you. Will you have dinner with me?” according to the woman.

The woman, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because she did not want the public attention associated with describing an unwanted advance, said she felt uncomfortable but laughed to avoid responding.

Six current and former employees of Microsoft, the foundation and the firm that manages the Gates’s fortune said those incidents, and others more recently, at times created an uncomfortable workplace environment. Mr. Gates was known for making clumsy approaches to women in and out of the office.

He’s emailing to ask out Microsoft employees? That’s beyond clumsy.

My father didn't speak ever about his time in Vietnam. It wasn't until the past ten years or so, when I got him his disability rating and tied into a few different veteran services that things changed a bit. The thing that did it? He found out if he attended a group therapy session across the street from the costco in the city two hours away that the VA would pay his gas money.

He came for the gas money but found a broken part of himself there that he'd never done the work to heal.

“We need to give cops support and supply them with military gear to keep us from a military occupation” is quite the take.

One easy trick to accepting an occupying military is to have them on city payrolls instead of federal.
