  • I'm not sure if I agree with the CDC estimates on infections -- 4X seems really high. But, even if it's 2X, the table is still devastating.

      Not surprising- but, as always, it comes down to WHY?

      In their Master Class, Penn and Teller talk about how Magic is all about distraction and that the performance needs to keep the audience wanting it. Otherwise, it falls apart and you have to resort to scamming old people and kids with card tricks on street corners. The same kind of logic must be at work here. The Fear Monkeys must be obsessed with Magic to the point in which Whitmer and her ilk have to be reminded by her assistants to NOT dress up as Harry Potter for press conferences.

        The Free Press ran an article yesterday, (paywalled, so I can't link it) stating that in spite of her favorable polls, that she's in for a fight when she runs for re-election next year. They (freep) still don't understand why she faces such opposition. I don't know what they're worried about. I'm sure they'll find enough votes in the Detroit precincts at the last minute to put her over the top of any opponent she faces.

        • If you go to a Dallas Mavericks game, you won't be standing for the National Anthem anymore. Owner Mark Cuban has done away with playing the anthem before games.

          The Dallas Mavericks have stopped playing the national anthem before home games, owner Mark Cuban confirmed to ESPN, and do not plan to resume the tradition in the future.

              I read it. It's good. Lots of nuanced, wait, fucking blatantly obvious shit. We've been saying this since day 30 when what was being reported by the MSM re COVID just didn't compute. That hasn't stopped and this Twitter thread demonstrates that.

              BTW, there was an article in the Economist comparing Texas and CA. Same ideas advanced but the school stuff hits really hard. That's never been the hot-button issue it should have been and that's mainly because the folks aren't getting the straight scoop from the media and, unfortunately, from certain public officials who are in bed with the teacher's unions. If they were, they'd be mobbing local Commission meetings and demanding schools open.

              • At this point, it's completely unjustifiable to be in a complete school lockdown. Unjustifiable. Governor Gav is running a huge ask risk of alienating a fuckton of voters and getting his ass recalled. But, man, you can't fuck with the State Teacher's Union, can you? Couldn't happen to a nicer fuckstick.

                    • AOC sent out an e-mail to her supporters to mass flag anyone who exposes her lies on Twitter, Facebook, etc so that the truth can be censored.

                      Can't have people finding out that you weren't even in the building that got stormed and were never in anything remotely resembling physical danger.

                          He reversed it. They will play the anthem.

                            Believe I have stated several times at this point that I think schools should be open.

                                We are currently at 60% of all schools doing hybrid....so.....it's fucking embarrassing....
