I am sitting on a work meeting with PT dry-needling needles jammed into my face because my TMJ pain is so bad I am seeing double, and the most blue MAGA faction of my team is talking about the one (UNVAXXED, ROGAN LISTENING) dude who just went to Disneyworld and someone else who is a Disney Person is expressing jealousy biting my tongue so loving hard. Generally this company is awesome and has made it clear no one ever has to come back to the office if they don't want to, this place treats me like a human and makes significant allowances for my medical problems and general need for emotional support and validation. I don't want to start a shitstorm here but holy gently caress was that hard to listen to.

If people ask me for shamanistic healing for COVID, I tell them that Pfizer and Moderna are much more powerful wizards with spellbooks I can only dream of.

I'm shocked we wasted the resources eradicating it in the US. quote:Polio is a viral illness that, in about 95% of cases, actually produces no symptoms at all (called asymptomatic polio). In the 4% to 8% of cases in which there are symptoms (called symptomatic polio), the illness appears in three forms:

the hollow joy a consumerist modern society provides killed the planet, and covid seemed like a wake up call for people to maybe assess what was really important about life, but instead, everyone quickly clawed their way back to corporate dining and attractions without looking back. such a waste.

But by the time anything pops up on the radar of someone that gets their news through normal channels it’s three months old and already been thoroughly discussed and accepted or rejected and all I can do is smile and go ‘Yeah’ and pretend I hold no opinion on the subject when they mention in November a topic I made a hundred shitposts about in July. it's exhausting and i'm done with it the only time i bother putting effort into it is when it's something easily avoidable or a "told you so" moment but even then those are far/few between

mastershakeman posted:i wonder if the feds planned on the vaccines being a culture war , and that they could completely abrogate their duty to deal with covid by just pretending holdout antivaxxers were the real problem and keeping everything focused on them while transmission runs rampant Don't think so. I guess you'd have to start with the Chamber of Commerce propaganda that Covid is no big deal and the best way to prevent getting covid is to have everyone get covid. Because if that wasn't the way of things their right to do whatever the gently caress they want with their investment/employees/everyone else would be in question and we can't have that. Anyway that pumped the pro-covid grift full of money, TV appearances and op-eds, but then the Biden regime refused to do anything at all. No masks, no lockdown, no nothing. So what does that leave for an entrepreneurial right-wing grifter? You're basically forced to take a position so dumb and destructive that even the Dems can't meet you four fives of the way there.

Yeah, I observed that before the pandemic a lot of the service and other low wage workers (grocery store for example) were of retirement age. I'm pretty sure that accounts for a lot of workforce displacement, they just died or retired, because who the gently caress wants to scrap with a Karen who didn't get her $1 burrito.

We had enough high wage/high skill union guys retire that 24 people in a small union were able to move into max seniority at a time when we expected no one to move up
