Yes, it the vaccine process was speed up, but at this point this might one of the most researched and studied medical issues, maybe ever, especially in the time frame they have did it in. A lot of stuff like that takes so long because of red tape and an overabundance of caution, both of which...

1. ******* has name recognition and public notoriety over every other site that's similar to it. Like in all types of businesses it matters, even if the product gets worse at a latter date. There are businesses that have lived decades off of stuff like that way after they were no longer run...

Spaceballs was a legit good movie. It's still one of my favorite comedies after all these years. It might also be one of the best parodies of any subject ever made.

Remember when Disney was going to do a new Star Wars movie that moved the timeline along every year or two? Yeah, the fact they so drastically altered that shows to me that they know they royally screwed things up with the sequel trilogy. They won't admit that, but there is no way a company...

Does anybody ever wonder why so many people that think God will just save them or protect them from harm or that their lives are in God's hands are also so pro ***? I mean after all if God is just going to intervene on your behalf why would one need a *** at all? I need that logic explained to...

There are some instances in history that one can look back on and only in hindsight see how bad something would turn out. I don't expect people to be psychic and expecting even experts to always have great foresight isn't reasonable. This, for the most part, isn't one of those times. There...

The Chinese government can be awful and usually is, but they probably won't be as dumb as the US when it comes to it's imperialism, subjection, and empire building. At least not totally at first if they don't have to. They are smart enough with forien nations to often start out not with...

At least AOC's position is logically consistent with her past stances and philosophy. Too many other people seem to have this weird cognitive dissonance where they think at the same time: We should get out of there We shouldn't leave all those refugees behind And they **** immigrants and...

I just don't see it. After 20 years what more could have been done? It's not like staying there a couple extra months or years or decades would have done anything. If the Afghan military was so inept after all this time, and lets face it it always has been, it's not like the Taliban would...

Does anybody ever think it's funny how when it's an employers market companies will keep from paying people well and will exploit the ever living **** out of people as much as they can get way with using excuse that it's just the fair market rate? However, when people just don't want to work at...

If after 20 damn years the situations is such that things fell apart this badly then that goes to show there was nothing that could have ever been reasonably done to make things better. There was no "win condition" for the US, and there almost certainly was never going to be one. The only way...

Is there any data or studies that display how much those factors spread COVID? IMO even if it's a major factor which I'm skeptical about it's all the more reason to help poor people so they aren't homeless, and can make a living wage. Also all the more reason to make those ******* people...

I **** politics, but the world doesn't give me any choice in the matter. Nothing is made political. Everything is and has always been political.

You can back that "fact" up by properly sufficient evidence given an extraordinary statement like that. Can you even provide something that would indicate anything close to what a sane person would consider the preponderance of evidence suggesting that. If you do you have information all the...

I always wonder about the people that don't want to take a vaccine because they don't know what's in it, but will unquestioningly take some ***** pressure, diabetes, pain, or just about any other medication while not only not knowing what's in it, but not even being able to pronounce the...

I think even those comparisons are different. Something like and oil or telephone company needed tremendous amounts of physical infrastructure to pull off, and they still do. The general populace also had to use money to utilize what they produced. Twitter is free for the general population...

People's natural immune system is a great defense. That's why vaccines are designed to utilize it. I'm glad I get to have something that lets my immune system experience and adapt to a dangerous pathogen without actually having said pathogen that's only purpose is to reproduce as it rips my...

When you go over the points about the anti-vaxxers I think Yakety Sax would be appropriate.

Near the end Nixon started to lose it and become paranoid, or at least the paranoia he had was exposed, but as bad as Nixon was and as much as some of his policy sucked, there was a long stretch of his political life where Nixon seemed sane and competent. Or at least he seemed competent in what...

Golly gee, who knew that throwing in one's lot with people that consider you a second class human being could have consequences?

The number of people I've seen in my life wearing items with Guevara is so few I could literally count them on one hand, with fingers to spear. The number of times I've seen people with Trump clothing and paraphernalia was probably over a dozen just when I went out today to get gasoline alone...

I don't that's entirely true at least in the sense that a lot of them really do believe that stuff. If they didn't then why not just be more honest about it? There is too much rationalizing by people to believe they don't care about lies or being lead astray. It's not like you see too many of...

As much as I liked the Steiners back in the day, the amount of roids Scott has done in his life combined with his age combined with his size would make me wonder if he could do anything strenuous anymore without gassing out after 20 seconds.

AOC debating her would be like a physicist trying to debate quantum mechanics to a gerbil. I mean sure, the physicist is smarter, knows what they are talking about more, and has a dramatically higher chance of actually being right, but in the end does that really matter? It's even more so when...

They aren't my favorite band in the world, and I would list many rock bands above them. That said I think they have been on quite a journey over the decades. They went from being overrated for so long I feel the pendulum has swung too far and are actually given too much **** these days. Did...

I can't even remember the last time I used a screensaver. I don't think I've used one in over 20 years. It's not as important for most modern screens as it was way back in the day when CRT monitors were a thing, and usually I just use the function that will make the monitor hibernate after a...

You know what I think is a really great way to protect those troops from possible attacks? Them not being there in the first place for them to get attacked.

It makes me wonder if something like this could become a roadmap for shady prosecutors when somebody they are affiliated with or have some sympathy to gets in trouble or if they are just bribed or starstruck by somebody's *********. All they have to do is make a half-assed effort to go after...

I'll admit that I blew into a lot of cartridges when I was a lot younger to get them to work. Anecdotally it did seem to work at the time, but then again given the small sample size it wasn't like I could have known whether that was the real cause or if it was just some placebo effect from me...

I could point out that while capitalism would be said to have good factors, under it's most common interpretation of what it is there is something better than it for pretty much any positive aspect it does have. It's one good thing it did one time have, encouraging competition in business, has...

You could also add states with the highest welfare per capita, states that take in the highest amount of federal money (while also bitching about the federal government :LOL:), and the unhealthiest states on that list also. It's weird, like all that stuff with the states near the top has a...

It's a good thing people don't treat stop signs and traffic lights like they do simple measures to stop the spread of COVID-19. Could you imagine it? "Stopping at them ******** muh freedom", "Obeying traffic laws ******** muh constitutional rights", "If other people don't want me to run into...

There's thinking out there that the moisture from your breath can increase conductivity. I don't know how efficient it actually is or if it's actually true, but it still probably isn't good for the long term health of a cartridge. It's probably better to just keep them clean and free from...

Saying capitalism is just a tools is slightly better than saying something like biological and chemical weapons are just a tool and are only evil in so much as the people that utilize them. Sure, on a super technical level that might be correct, but when human nature kicks in and the ends of...

For the record I don't love America. I don't love inanimate objects or chunks of earth. Anybody that does has a deeply unhealthy mental state. The only thing I ever love are people, and too many of them this country treats like garbage. Anything that's deeply flawed like America is needs to...

I'm still waiting for anybody that's against Critical Race Theory to calmly and logically tell me about it in a way that doesn't make them sound like a conspiratorial raving lunatic. With their inability to do so it's not hard to come to the realization that they have no fucking clue what it...

I imagine blowing dry air from ones mouth would be hard baring being a mummy or some similar creature.

It didn't even have to be well known producers she would have had to work with. There were plenty of adult models around the time she worked and even well before Gisele was in her prime that had modest websites with much better video and picture quality. She just needed a better team around her.

I can see Bruce Wayne and Selina Kyle getting together and doing pretty much any normal sex act. Both of them getting together to have sex in their costumes would be kind of weird though.

The Holly Randall photos of Gisele makes me wish she would have worked with more professional photographers and video people in her career. She was too good of a model to waste almost all of it on material with technical quality that was mediocre at best and that was often bad. I can...

So let me get this strait. Jon Stewart pushes some lab leak stuff based on some nonsensical non sequitur based on the naming of the virus and lab. That's like blaming somebody you know because you think he was the one who dumped black paint out on the street and to prove it you explain it must...

So was the thing they snitched on you for a false accusation or were you just pissed you got exposed?

Another telling thing about Republicans is that they are even willing to vote against things that not only do the majority of Americans want they will near unanimously vote against things even the plurality if not outright majority of Republicans voters want. i.e. single payer universal health...

Applying the principle of Occam's Razor with the thought that extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence I still don't remotely see enough evidence to back up any lab leak claims. All I've heard is that 1. A lab that handles viruses happens to be in the same city where it was first...

Another hypothesis might be that more of them admit it than in the past. I can see a dumb stigma from it still being there, but also more people just not giving a damn what other people think of them about it.

It makes me sad and a little scared for the country. Hopefully one day sanity can prevail for us. A good silver lining though is that I'm getting a large amount of enjoyment out of Republicans being hunted and devoured by the very ******* they have spent decades creating because they have lost...

Thinking the looting of some businesses is similar to the storming of our fucking capital building is a gigantic false equivalence. That the stupidity and incompetence of the people on Jan 6 undermined their success doesn't magically absolve them or the people that instigated them to action...

For the record I don't **** anybody. I try to have love for everybody that's ever lived, even the most evil people humanity has ever produced because that's what I feel I'm supposed to do. Some people make that a lot harder than others. With that said, there are people I despise, (yes, even...

You have to love the hilarity of masses of Republicans nutcases believing the storming of the capital on Jan 6 was some sort of Antifa false flag operation despite no evidence backing them up while also at the same time being adamant about not wanting and bipartisan independent investigation...

Something I've always wondered about is how the people that take the statement that "God created man in his image" literally reconcile that with the fact that the first humans almost certainly had very dark skin color.
