The panhandle is very much a mishmash of every culture around it. It's just rural emptiness for the most part and the culture is not very different than any other patch of dry rural emptiness anywhere in the nation. I live in the south now. I have also lived in west texas and the panhandle. While they are redneck, they are not southern. For example, my first experience with collard greens or grits was on a navy warship because those are not staple foods in west texas or the panhandle the way they are in the south. The food there is a mix of mexican and midwestern and has basically zero southern influence. I have far more in common with someone who grew up in eastern new mexico than I have with anyone that I've ever known in the south. I thought the greens were steamed spinach and boy did I get a surprise with that first big bite.

More poo poo that should be shoved through the Senate immediately: https://twitter.com/sahilkapur/status/1549800020953767936?t=p7AxNnSDkN_Cw81py4yieA&s=19 Collins/Manchin pushing it, so another thing that might happen. Also, could be likely to happen because congresscritters kinda don't like being threatened with death and crazed common folk in the Congressional chambers!

My cynical take is that the only reason that stuff has any Republican support is because they can pass it knowing that the Supreme Court will shoot it down as soon as it's convenient.

I went to school for geology at a university co-located with the national atmospheric research lab and an institute for alpine and arctic research, and it was a running joke among my class that one of the first few lectures of any given course would just be an hour block of gloom and doom.

It will just push them further into lobbyist pockets. Career politicians have an appetite for corruption, and will always find a way to line their pockets through legal and illegal means.

Watching all the legs move in perfect sync to rebalance after the recoil is vaguely horrifying in some atavistic way

Monoclonal antibodies aren't really used anymore because they're not effective against omicron and new variants. They do have effective antivirals in the form of paxlovid, which he is on.

Also, if Biden dies, I think we end up with a vacant VP spot until after midterms and potentially through the rest of her presidency. This will be bizarre, because no VP means no one to count the votes according to the constitution and ECA. Filling a vacant VP slot just requires a simple majority from both congressional houses, but there is no tie breaker for a tied senate. e: prior to the 25th, the president pro tem would count votes when there was a VP vacancy, but they cannot cast tie breaking votes.

Within 3 or 4 days he is testing negative and feels great.

Yeah, I edited my post with some updated info. The president pro tem would probably be the one actually counting the EC votes, and there simply would be no tie breaker in the senate.

CRUSTY MINGE posted:Fake. It's not even 11am yet on the east coast. Correct, that's why I said "in the real world" after Mr. Nice! posted:Monoclonal antibodies aren't really used anymore because they're not effective against omicron and new variants. They do have effective antivirals in the form of paxlovid, which he is on. Read yesterday that there's a grand total of ONE monoclonal antibody that still works on the common BA.4/BA.5 variants. It's pretty rough!
