Nah, because nobody really cares about death as it turns out. Wild fires, floods, hurricanes, and general climate-induced weather poo poo will be a much bigger deal because they aren't ignorable and they're going to directly affect people's lives beyond just killing their neighbors or parents.

I already know people who have been complaining almost non-stop that high temperatures, humidity, and rain just completely ruined summer for them this year. Like more whining than I heard all year last year. People are gonna start crack pinging hard as summer goes from the "fun" season to the "death" season in lots of areas.

i remember in july 2020 when we were talking about how covid would have to individually hit people and their families for people to start taking it seriously

and how instead it's going to be retroactive justification and doubling down so people don't have to deal with the thought that they're directly or indirectly responsible for killing their families

i really wanted to ask how many of those trips out he would trade for another month with her. but that would have been way too mean when he was talking about how lonely he is, and how his son still asks about her.

i also didn't bother asking how his or his kid's infections went, maybe next time i see him.

No, requiring that would have been sensible. Of course NSW did the dumbest thing possible:

quote:

Patient Zero in the Sydney outbreak was a limo driver in his 60s who caught it from a passenger. He was neither vaccinated, wearing a mask nor being tested regularly - and he didn't need to under the rules at the time.
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-australia-57647413

But yes, the fact that he got pinged months later for breaking the mask mandate during an outbreak shows that he's also a massive tool


Edit: there were guidelines in place but the police and health department couldn't agree who should have been enforcing them and in the end they agreed they weren't actually enforceable, so the state government tightened the rules after the metaphorical horse had bolted:

LOL

quote:

Miles Teller isn't exactly the good guy in most of the movies he features in, and well, it turns out he might not have been acting.

Teller, star of the forthcoming Paramount+ series "The Offer," has tested positive for COVID, the Daily Mail reports. Teller, who is allegedly against vaccinations, has thus brought production of the show on the making of "The Godfather" movies to a halt, according to the Mail.

A source told the outlet, "Miles Teller is not vaccinated. He wouldn't even get the test. Now he's brought the virus to the set and the whole set had to shut down." However, Teller's publicist disputed the claim, telling the Mail their facts were "incorrect" but declining to say more.

"Out of an abundance of caution, we have temporarily halted production . . . We will continue to follow all safety protocols and monitor the situation closely," a spokesperson for Paramount Television Studios told Deadline over the weekend. The Mail's report potentially sheds new light on what caused this halt in production.

In "The Offer," Teller plays Al Ruddy, the filmmaker behind the "Godfather" movies in a dramatized portrayal of Ruddy's behind-the-camera work. The allegedly COVID-positive star actually took over the role of Ruddy from Armie Hammer earlier this year, shortly after several women accused Hammer of rape and sexual misconduct. Giovanni Ribisi, Collin Hanks, Matthew Goode, Juno Temple and Dan Fogler are also cast in the project.

The "Whiplash" star's alleged anti-vax stance is just the latest in a cesspool of celebrity drama around COVID and the vaccine. Last month, Jennifer Aniston stoked the ire of anti-vaxxers when she recounted ending friendships over the vaccine with people who endangered others by refusing to get it. Around the same time that Aniston interview came out, country music legend Carrie Underwood stoked controversy by "liking" a tweet that condemned mask mandates on Twitter.

I have an appointment tomorrow, apparently, for shot # 3. Last shot was on 4/20, so I feel like I might be jumping the gun a bit. Last shot was at the county fair grounds in Ohio, this one is going to be a retail pharmacy in Washington state and involves a hell of a lot more paperwork. I miss queueing up like cattle for my 'free shot no questions asked' already. Hope my weird arm lesions that I never bothered to find out about lend credence to my being immunocompromised. America!

I loved the little flash game that Plague Inc was based on, but now I can't get into the game at all. It's way too unrealistic, on every level. The rules of its reality are too different from ours, and I can't deal with that in a simulation. Like saying Oblivion is a realistic physics game, while having stacks of plates develop resonance wobbles and explode all over the room after touching them.

The magic is ruined because nothing in the real world played out like those simulations. It would be way too easy for the virus side to have human give up at an accelerating rate after a few weeks, but global lock down for 3 years? hahahahahaha, tell me another fairy tale, grandma.

So honest question, is there some technical definition of "endemic" that I'm not aware of?

Because if you have a disease that's endemic to the whole world and in a state of constant outbreaks how is that not actually just a pandemic

It means Re=1, on average, in the entire population, over some arbitrary period of time. Covid is not endemic, it's one pandemic death wave after another.

i was talking with someone today, i've known him and his gf/wife casually for like 8 years. they had a kid a few years ago. his wife is a nurse of some sort, i think physical therapy.

he was talking about how at the start of the pandemic, he was trying to be a little cautious about stuff, but she was not going to stop going out. she would tell him that she was going to the bar and he could either come with her or not. she dealt with covid all day at work and didn't want to think about it after work. so they'd go out to places because she couldn't stop going out to dinner, bars, and events.

she died of covid 3 months ago.

I'm an introvert. It's a piece of cake for me to avoid people. My partner is an extrovert. She was willing to play it safe until she got vaccinated. After that, I have had a hard time talking her out of going places and doing things un-masked. Her lungs are already damaged because both her parents smoked indoors. She knows this, she knows the risks, she believes all the doomer data I show her, she isn't a succlib or a chud, but she's insistent that she must hang out with people or she'll go insane. And she might be right. She's had some serious breakdowns during all this.

I work in a university dining hall that opens for full indoor, sit down, take your mask off and spread this aerosolized virus all over the building in a matter of days.
