Good thing the mrna vaccine for hiv should be out soon!

Maybe the next variant will be a coffee-fetching, calendar-managing, pencil skirt-wearing type.

Or a thumb-sucking, teddy bear-grasping, tear-free shampoo-fragranced type.

Just.. something. Anything to get ol' fightin' Joe's blood pumping.

The funniest thing is that both Democrats and Republicans are in denial about the outbreak, but in slightly different ways. Republicans are flagrant hypocrites while Democrats are a bit more sophisticated in their fudging of stats.

i wonder how many weeks we will cook along at 'only' 175k cases a day... because going above that probably requires all the governors to setup massive testing centers and tents and things like they had in november 2020

we'll just see hospitalizations continue to rise and rise and rise while people bleat on about how 'delta has plateaued!'

Interesting that the Afghanistan govt collapsed at just this time, as you could have asked the same question about America's goals for that project. There was no real plan there, and there is no plan for COVID. The admin will continue trying to do nothing, and if the healthcare system collapses it collapses

I always think of that Dollop episode; I don’t remember which city had a lake that was so polluted that it just started on fire one day (I think I’m the 1800s) just as a reminder that things can always get worse in ways I’d never imagined.

It’s pretty comforting.

according to d&d china is built on a giant burial site of dead children and the government has to secretly just keep adding to the bodies every year, shoring up chinese cities with a foundation of more and more dead children.
