you guys are giving out monoclonal antibodies at libraries? what the gently caress is going on?

recap:

one of desantis' biggest donors is also one of regeneron's largest shareholders

so desantis cut a deal where he used state money to buy a bunch of regeneron doses to hand out, incidentally raising regeneron's stock price to record heights

a journalist wrote an article about it

not even 24 hours later that journalist wrote a terrified tweet about his dms filling with death threats and literally begged "Please don't kill me". can't link because he locked down his account shortly afterward

I'm heading to the 'Co here in a bit to stock up on poo poo tickets, beans, rice, et al. I suspect I won't be leaving my house a whole lot once the temperature drops, we're going into this in a worse condition than we went into last winter lol.

Seriously they couldn't even pass HR1, which is of existential importance for the continued viability of the Democratic party and its ability to do anything. Kind of checked out of following US congressional politics after they just let it get filibustered, not like I can vote here anyway.

I still have some questions/concerns about the quality of my seal and if I'm doing everything right. I don't want to derail this thread much, plus it already moves fast and replies get lost. I wouldn't mind PMing someone if they're able and willing to help - because I have no one IRL I can turn to for this stuff - but I imagine I'm not the only one with concerns and questions.
Maybe we should have a thread for respirator chat and stuff? I feel like there's probably enough to justify it?

95% of people think they're gonna be fine, either because they think covid isn't real or that vaccines are foolproof

95% of people are right. The issue is those groups are different

A panic would at least mean people are taking this seriously. I never really stopped stocking up on supplies. Both my wife and I mentioned that we are seeing way more masks than we did when we first got here but not all of the schools have started yet. I hope to hear more information regarding schools at work tomorrow. Oh boy!
