The only consistent platform plank of the modern republican party is that they be allowed to do whatever they want and suffer no consequences. Everything else is just built around that.

Fun fact: We have 920k hospital beds in the US. 628k have non Covid patients and 82k Covid patients.

At current rates of infection, we are going to run out of available hospital beds in 70 days….assuming nobody else goes to the hospital for any reason.

lol, is this implying that Oregon’s vaccination rate is good because it’s above national average?

it’s also spiking in Jackson county, where I normally live (I’m in LA for an extended job/family trip right now lol). Jackson county has coolish small towns like Ashland talent, and a bunch of poo poo Chuds. it also has a ton of anti vax energy crystal types. have a family friend who’s a main nurse/manager type for the hotlines for Covid. the whole time before delta she’s been very “it’s okay just be careful.” but with delta she sent out an email like, “dont go anywhere dont get hurt don’t get sick we’re hosed.”

when their actions suffer consequences, such as from when they think a collection of proteins gives a poo poo about "are freedumbs", they cry about it and say it's not fair and it's all a cover up for invisible aliens shooting people dead with equally invisible ray guns.

Word to the wise: The pharmacist at CVS who was giving my wife her booster absolutely refused to give her anything until she brought in her vaccination card, so it looks like some places are tightening up their requirements.

I think your wife just encountered a chud. You could raise a stink about it, but it's probably easier to just go to another location.

that's 77% occupancy when we normally year to year average 65% - 68%

there was an entire branch of mormon scholarship that was dedicated to figuring out how to square the circle in a mutually acceptable way to everyone in the 70's and 80's. They formed FARMS and were in, general, not a bunch of lunatics.

Then Packer, Benson and the rest of the hardcore right wing shut everything down and now you either believe in Calvinist Maya or you're in bed with satan.

lol I was talking to a contractor about fixing some dry rot and he said he’d have a proposal to me back in June. I figured he just ignored me after coming by my place and talking through it for an hour because he had too much work, he cut contact and was unreachable after first coming by. he calls me up yesterday and says he and all of his crew and his business partners all got covid and all of their families got covid and they’ve been sick but he would get back to me soon

No Sleepy Joe could have invoked various executive orders, federal lawsuits and state of emergency powers in this situation.

He chose not since he can't draw a clock correctly and also assumes by being "nice" to GOP voters they will go over to his side in the next election.


For comparison in China Comrade Xi made sure state/local officials were punished for mismanagement and also made sure there was a national level pandemic response strategy.
