I reminded several people about this and they had no recollection of it. Google returns almost nothing but local news stations. YouTube isn't in a hurry to find it.

The talking point I still hear is that it'll become the flu and you just have to get a shot every year.

"have to"

is the flu shot mandatory anywhere?

Ran into my work buddy at McDonald's this morning. He felt so sick on Monday, he had to go home. Said he could barely stand up and stay awake. Says he's feeling better now. I guess he didn't think wearing a mask to McDonald's would be worthwhile. Can't spread Covid right after you had it again, right?

I still wear at least the KN94.

The BA.2 wave predicted to start right about now. My partner and coworkers refusing to even think about returning to caution. Air travel plans coming up. And the college kids have brought back their annual neighborhood-wide block party tradition.

All signs point to my finally getting the 'vid. I wish I was delusional like the idiots who still believe "Well it's good to catch it, after that you're immune forever, like chicken pox." Then I'd have something to look forward to.

America had another mass shooting today and it isn't even news. Probably because it's likely a gang thing, so the collective response from white American media consumers is "Oh, doesn't matter to me, then."

I’m assuming you didn’t make it out here? lol probly for the best we’re floating away today, gotten probably 3 inches of rain since this morning and it is not stopping

yeah, flight got cancelled but i really dont think it's because of the weather. planes can land in the rain. bit harder when flight crews just aren't available. there's innumerable stories on twitter right now about customer service just failing on every platform, internet, phone, etc. nobody's even manning the desks at the airports.

and now my partner's crying because i was able to fix the car rental pickup time by clicking an obscure button she couldn't find. i'm sure this trip will go fantastically when we get on a different flight tomorrow. :(

Flying for the first time since 2019. All good so far. No crazies, no idiots. People unmasking to snack on the plane, of course, but I guess we'll never get the majority of people to understand how foolish and unnecessary that is.

Meanwhile, my brother went to a bachelor party in Vegas where everybody got Covid. Everybody but him, miraculously. He just has a bad cold, you see. :allears:

The CDC will announce that Americans who are fully vaccinated against Covid no longer need to wear masks or physically distance, indoors or outdoors in almost all circumstances.” In tiny small print they'll mention you should still avoid crowded areas, but this will be ignored. Chuds and Brunch Liberals have declared Covid is over.

“Negotiations on police reform have stalled after Jim Clyburn went on the Sunday shows and claimed that qualified immunity reforms, the core part of the bill and the priority of Dem negotiators, weren't needed, stunningly undercutting his own caucus.”

“Over 10,000 Colombians are occupying the Plaza de Bolivar in Bogota, demanding justice for the dozens of protesters gunned down by the US-backed narco-regime of Ivan Duque and their paramilitary forces.”

“Riot cops in Bogota just tear gassed the entire Plaza de Bolivar and have shut down every street corner around the Congress building for at least five blocks. Cops on motorcycles & in armored vehicles are everywhere. Breathing is extremely difficult.”

The judge who struck down the eviction moratorium lives in a $3 million, 6,900 square foot house with 6 bedrooms, 6.5 baths, cathedral ceilings and 2 kitchens.

I don't know if they've stopped manufacturing them or if we've lost our connection to buy them, but we can no longer obtain biodegradable bags for food waste. We're instructing customers to just throw that poo poo straight in the un-lined bins, which means our custodians need extra time to wash all of those each day. No idea why we can't line them with regular plastic bags.

Where'd all those headlines about random supply chain fuckups go? This poo poo is still happening.
