Since you're a using a non sensical term to mock their decision, you must hate the supreme court. shame on you. I guess since catlick priests sleep with roofs over their heads, I have to tear mine off. Still doesn't change the definition of satan, or any of the wrong bombs you're dropping. Who said I loved the Supreme Court? Quote Planning is an exercise of power, and in a modern state much real power is suffused with boredom. The agents of planning are usually boring; the planning process is boring; the implementation of plans is always boring. In a democracy boredom works for bureaucracies and corporations as smell works for skunk. It keeps danger away. Power does not have to be exercised behind the scenes. It can be open.

Early on I started taking photos of discarded/lost masks I came across on my walks and posting them on instagram. I've photographed more than 850. My avatar is Mil Mascaras. I figure I'll stop once I get a thousand photos. I pick up most of them. Lots of gloves out there too. 3 Quote Thay Haif Said: Quhat Say Thay?

They're everywhere. I don't pick them up because I don't know how up to date my tetanus shots are, but it's pretty filthy. Yeah I'm pretty careful. I have one of those trash picker devices.

I don't know that we're going to hit herd immunity. Kids can't get vaccinated and there are too many Bobs. But we can severely limit its transmission even without true herd immunity. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Del Scorcho Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 Remember how people were yammering about how social distancing, mask wearing businesses shutting down were going to result in mass suicides. According to the NHCS (National Center for Health Statistics) and the NVSS (National Vital Statistics System). Suicides were actually lower in 2020 than they’ve been in the previous four years. 2020: 44,834 2019: 47,511 2018: 48,344 2017: 47,173 2016: 44,965 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
