July 2022: F*ck You I Won't Do The Bare Minimum Expected of an Elected Official

# ¿ Jul 2, 2022 04:30 |
quote:President Joe Biden is a genuinely good man, but he has yet been unable to break through our national malady of denial, deceit, and distrust. A return of Donald Trump would feed the sickness, probably rendering it incurable. Congress is particularly disappointing: Our elected officials put a finger in the wind more frequently than they show backbone against it. Too often, Washington demonstrates the maxim that for evil to thrive only requires good men to do nothing. Understatement of the last three decades.

Yes, I think *at worst* an insurance company should be able to set your initial rate higher if you have documented cases of claims due to negligence. None of this corporate bullshit of taking your money and penalizing you for life for any claims you ever do use, let alone the authority to deny claims.

piL posted:If Japan doesn't revise article 9, can it legally aid the defense of Taiwan if there isn't an attack on Japan first? "legally" is doing a lot of heavy lifting there, and the answer is they'll help or not as the political winds blow. The boats and missiles have no concept of legality in their arming circuits.

Zamujasa posted:can't wait until biden recovers and goes "see? covid is nothing but a mild cold. everyone should go back to work. open 'er up!" The world is already back to normal. We have widespread rollout of vaccines and it's become endemic. It's been a little more then a performative event for at least six months now. We're still at like 500k new cases a week or something right?

Platystemon posted:Nah. Traveling all the time for the last 18months has left me feeling like covid is now treated with the same level of fucks given as car accidents and heart attacks. To me the difference between that and the medical definition is literally academic. The only thing we can do now is keep pushing vaccines and develop drugs to mitigate for those who catch it. No amount of handwringing will get a bigger response than that anymore.

Nobody takes it seriously because it's no more serious than regular risks anymore. I realize that's a heartless thing to say to people who are immunocompromised. Life sucks but we don't have overflowing ERs with people dying at this point. I'm only speaking from anecdotal evidence of places where i'm primarily active, being New England and Spain, but half my family works in medicine and even they're over it. Everybody just seems to pop positive and spend a day or two in bed taking ibuprofen. It was awful, and we didn't take sufficient steps to mitigate the disaster. But two and a half years later and this is the new normal.

To continue my anecdotal self-immolation here are the informal survey results of an ER Doctor, ER nurse, and Travel nurse: Fucks given about Covid - 3/10, 4/10, and 4/10. Worry's about monkeypox - 6/10, 8/10, and 9/10.

I assume it's that these days covid is a know quantity, so it doesn't worry people. While monkey pox is a new major disease on the horizon while the start of the last major epidemic is still in recent memory. Nobody wants to go through April 2020 again.

Burt posted:Also from someone who used to commute monthly to Australia from the UK for a living, airlines ranking; From my transatlantic work commutes I can confirm that Iberia is awesome. As long as you don't accidently select a Star Alliance Iberia operated by American. My one Ryan Air flight boarded the whole plane, found out half an hour later it had a flat tire. Disembarked everyone, and managed to be 3 hours late.
