One thing to note: the payback only occurs if your 2020 salary is above the limit specifically. If you’re still making 6 figgies this year, you’re likely ok through this.

Airlines make slightly more than 6 figgies a year, will they have to pay everything back next April 15th?

I probably shouldn't think about it, but I'm confused if the GOP and MAGA people either understand how serious this virus is and don't care, don't understand and don't care, genuinely believe that if the market goes up and they benefit that's what is good for America or a combo of them all. Just confusing and upsetting.

Yes

I'm fairly certain a woman at work has a false negative result. She was going through "the worst flu of her entire life combined with whooping cough" and had to go to the ER, but was somehow negative. Now we have at least four units on base who have been ordered back to work and are back to normal flight ops, despite 7 confirmed cases on base as of last Friday. Lotta people are gonna die in a week or two.

That could absolutely "just" be influenza. Regular ole influenza can kill people in the same ways CoViD-19 does.

I think/hope that "...that I've had in my life" in this instance is meant to parsed as "...that have existed in my life" as in, "I had a birthday"

I also did approximately a quadruple take between ways to interpret that sentence.

Fact of the matter is, for a lot of women of reproductive age, Dems are pretty much their only hope for autonomy, when it comes right down to it. If that means you have to hold your nose and vote for a rapist-- well, it won't be the first time you've had to throw your support behind someone you know is goddamn awful. Nearly every man in your life has said or done something questionable, and most of them have stood up for a friend that did something really loving bad before finally admitting that oh, maybe that was stupid. 'What's the sliding scale here?' is a question you have to ask yourself before moving forward, either personally, professionally, or politically, because it's all coming down to poo poo one way or another, and unless you feel like living as a hermit, you're going to have to make compromises eventually.

It cannot be emphasized enough that Biden is anti abortion. There is literally no reason to vote for him.

Even he's not dumb enough to throw out Roe v. Wade.

This is problematic because the dog whistle conservative judges use is that they "respect the precedent" of Roe v. Wade. Hes also campaigned for anti abortion candidates like Republican house member Fred Upton.

Fine, substitute “anti choice” just don’t use pro life.

I suspect it has to do with how web crawlers operate.

If I was a medical worker, and I was not being provided the proper PPE for work, I wouldn't show up. Can't help more people if you're out sick or dead.

Based on some interviews I've been hearing from people that work in ERs it sounds like if that was your standard then you wouldn't be a medical worker in the US.
