Update on my CHUD relatives:

My uncle, who believes COVID is fake, has actually started to recover. He still refuses to acknowledge he had it and his kids are still refusing to get vaccinated, mask up, or even wash their drat hands.

My aunt, who was brain washed by my uncle, is probably going to die in the next few hours. Before she was on a ventilator she was apparently assaulting nurses and refusing everything.

I will not be going to the funeral.

gently caress the conservative grifters and Q nutjobs who helped turn my mildly annoying hick of an uncle into a wacko that got his wife killed.

Krysten Sinema's motives are:

1) own a winery next to Maynard Keenan's because that is still edgy right;
2) just purely osmosis-process fame and a permanent job out of this poo poo.

Her miscalculation is doing it right now and not 15 years ago.

Yeah the point of hiring ex-politicians as lobbyists is they can get their foot in the door due to prior relationships.

I don’t think any Dem in Congress will have the time of day for Sinema after she gets her rear end handed to her - if not in the primary, then the general. It’s not like she’s well liked.

Holding up legislation for a pet project is annoying, but understandable. Holding up legislation without explanation is just going to make people never want to deal with you.

I had a lot of hope for Sinema since she used to be a Green. Now, I’ve come around to, “never trust a Green, current or former.” They’re all hosed up.

No one expects Senator "wine o clock" to have Democratic politics because she's bisexual they expect her to have Democratic politics because she ran as and was elected as a Democrat.

yeah one of the most strange and insidious parts of the pandemic is how many people mistook 'vulnerable people such as the elderly and immunocompromised are more susceptible' to mean 'so healthy people are ok!' which is NOT WHAT THAT MEANS
The first covid thread title here was a joke about one of the most obscene buried ledes I've seen in a news article. I wish I could find the article. I think it was about the first covid deaths in the US after those outbreaks in 3 nursing homes and went at length about how everyone that died from covid had some co-morbidity. The majority of occupants have co-morbidities so it should be no surprise that most of the deaths are people with co-morbidities. But they lead this article by saying covid is killing people with co-morbidities and then at the end they just throw in "oh except for this guy who jogs every morning and was in perfect health, he died too." :eng99:

Sounds like the manga Liar Game (which apparently also got a live adaptation).

The Liar's Game show was extremely good, too. The "person forced to compete in elaborate death games that are trickier versions of common games and find clever ways to outthink the game's rules" story is a weirdly popular specific subgenre in Asian media.

Squid Game's writing is kind of average (and there's a lot of it that's specifically commentary about current issues in Korea), but the cinematography is exceptional.

I honestly think it’s dumber than that. She’s trying to appeal to Republican voters, who will never vote for her, because she still thinks AZ is a red state. It’s not, and it may be skipping past the “purple” stage straight to blue because the AZ GOP is getting too bugfuck crazy for its suburban voters.

Kelli Ward narrowly won her election for state party chair, and when her opponents credibly asked for a recount, she denied them. That’s not strange at all.

The fact that Gov Ducey won’t run for Senate in 2022 indicates that he believes it’s a lost cause.

I hate CNN and I hate their video player but watch this poo poo and tell me the Republican lady at the end doesn’t sound like a loving liar.
