Marshal Prolapse posted:Insert joke about Packers fans. One of my friends is a nurse and his wife is like this, she refuses to get the vaccine despite mountains of evidence proving that all of her complaints have no merit. They just had a baby together too. I know he's worried about when their kid is old enough to get the vaccine, what will her stance be then? Personally, I don't think I could stay married to someone this dumb.

Midjack posted:Oh wow, I didn't know that at all! My brain says that Harrison gets named in the opening credits. It also says that I read an advertisement for the book in question in the back of another science fiction book. I distinctly remember having a good laugh about it. The scene with the exploding mouse hidden in the high heels screams Harry Harrison to me. Unfortunately google is giving me zip. The death of the movie's website and the release of a netflix series of the same name is not helping matters. The closest thing I found was a story about a prisoner going through a one way portal to a prison planet. Regrettably I will have to retract my fun fact until I either watch the movie's opening credits or find that specific science fiction book.

For what it's worth: https://twitter.com/paulkrugman/status/1477662691741380609?t=kNn5t94kDJVUXfN0LypkBw&s=19 PR is still in the "hey, hospital's starting to fill" phase when drat near everyone else has their hospitals stuffed. What's wild is that with Florida and PR now surging like crazy, Omicron might've made COVID a lot less seasonal than we thought.

Milo and POTUS posted:I liked the sequel clear and present ranger Lol For Ranger Games I was worried at first that because the author is related to one of the bank robbers it would turn out the events were somehow benign but he was inflating them as it was a family member, or that he would downplay his cousin’s involvement. nope and he eventually realizes his family member was not under the impression it was a secret mission but knew what he was doing. also crazy how the ringleader already faced jail time for the robbery then started trying to put out a hit on the prosecution, which courts don’t like.

Oh yeah I liked the story too, I hadn’t read a lot of sci fi and it was interesting to think about how a society relying on people choosing to die almost only by choice would mean very few chose to do so.

Good start to 2022! My dad went to the hospital due to breathing issues. Luckily it looks like he'll be fine, negative COVID test and he's on oxygen and is feeling better than the he has in a while. Looks like his old blood clot issue is flaring up again. Everything looks OK and he sounds great, so that's good. But you guys will probably understand why my anxiety went through the roof as I'm 1200 miles away and can't do a drat thing. Mom and dad were both vaccinated and he doesn't really go anywhere but still, he couldn't get into his preferred hospital because it was full. Thanks, anti-vax morons. My mom's friend is quitting her 17/hour pharmacy tech job (with really good benefits) so she won't have to get the vaccine, despite getting lucky with COVID just last week and not, ya know, dying. Just a bad head cold, this time. I come from small town America, the same place that gets talked about lately and it's really, really depressing to see people that I know and like play up stupid GQP talking points and then, smugly, say "Let's Go Brandon". They ain't funny. They're loving morons. I want to print out some of this crap, fold it, dip it in olive oil and shove it up their rear end. My parents are pretty sane mostly because I explain poo poo to them and why it's wrong/bad/political. I love my little hometown but I am not going to lie. I'm glad I escaped. Hell the mayor died in the week before Christmas and a facebook post about it turned into morons writing "Let's Go Brandon" and a few people telling them how stupid they sounded, so there's some sanity left. And yes, the mayor died of COVID. All this poo poo it so exhausting. The poo poo the GOP spills is having real, actual impact on medical services and all these chuds care about are stupid catchphrases and owning the mythical "libs". On a happy note, I bought my kid a Switch LIte for Christmas and she's already paid Tom Nooks loan off. And she doesn't want more debt so she's collecting bugs or whatever to buy new furniture. Goddamn Animal Crossing is the best Finance 101 thing ever designed.

Omicron tends to peak pretty hard and fast, so it might be knocked out by then. Puerto Rico's also really high-vaccinated, so it might pass through them quick, like San Francisco. Since you're leaving the mainland and can't exactly drive back if you catch it while there though, you might want to emergency plan for an extra week there if you do want to go. A similar thing is going on for the Olympics - the NHL flat pulled out of the Olympics because of potential quarantine/isolation periods mandated by China.
