Um, bats are ubiquitous the world around. Here are some nice maps of their distribution in the US: https://www.bing.com/images/search?q=bats+in+the+us&id=96EC05F0083E5C186E35DC445A42D87CE77698EC&FORM=IQFRBA
And what the USGS has to say about them: https://www.usgs.gov/faqs/where-do-bats-live?qt-news_science_products=0#qt-news_science_products
I learned from personal experience that they can get in your attic and spread bedbugs, of all things. No doubt they have their own fleas and mites. All bloodsuckers even if the bats aren't. A reservoir in bats could be very bad.
This Redfield ended his muddled walkback yesterday by saying "So everyone get a flu shot," giving the impression that thus we will have less illness overall and be able to separate flu cases from COVID. Made my spidey sense tingle, and an hour later I see an article that flu shots will increase likelihood of catching COVID. Well, that assertion in the timeframe seems a little bold, but what if it is true? Like the "insurance plan" to take out Trump--now I can't feel the NIH/CDC is on our side.
He's timed out.
Take a snapshot but keep the original and envelope, send the snap to whitehouse.gov.
I think a few are genuinely anxious, OC, feel out of control, etc. and the rest have grown to feel entitled to bitch by the feminists. They are like the hate crime hoaxers, there aren't really enough problems in their life so they butt into other peoples' to find them.
You beat me to it, only left out the patriotic lump in the throat of seeing them show up. It was the best thing about the whole farce to show off these ships.
We don't need to see a "made in China" label hanging off those HIV insertions.
The vaccinated part is what's hard to believe. Where is this vaccine? Who made it? When was it tested and where is the report on that? Yes, I know about Bill's Adventures with vaccines, but even he has to do some reporting.
Humans aren't animals? What a speciesist.
What's wrong with an evening drinking beer and eating nachos supremo? You can substitute American beer, all the Mexicans around here do.
But he is now in the catbird seat, and everyone including Dems went along with it.
Look like they've been dead awhile.
OK. In my opinion allowing "hate speech" to be a thing is a much more worrisome loss of liberty than people wearing masks or staying home: at the moment it is truly rumor, fear, and the madness of crowds because of all the hype and people are looking for something to cling to. °Hate speech" is pure control with no excuse except virtue signalling.
How do you determine if a slur is " racial" in the first place when some people make everything about race? Why are slurs by some people racial or hateful but the exact same verbalization by someone else isn"t? When do common phrases that were around in general speech for hundreds of years suddenly become hate if still used in the same situations? No, it is all indefensible. Hate is an interior state and hate speech is clearly "white people said something about blacks." The hate is inferred by words and it's all one way.
F him, give his routes to SW Air.
But whose vaccine? Gates was only one of about six that were almost immediately in the works. And as they were all so new, were they really tested and ready to go, or are these journos getting (gasp) unapproved medicine?
Somehow I now expect this to be another CDC-WHO-Gates brainchild.
Ugh. This sounds like a device from years ago that imo was a very cruel way to circumcise babies. Not to mention the callousness of experimenting to find the "botch rate." That's a lifetime problem.
Obama said something?
I wish the whole "hate speech" construction would disappear. It's thought policing all the way and should never have been accepted for a minute.
Bet that sulphuric acid gives it a nice bite.
I like to wear a mask against pollen. And for once I don't feel like a freak doing it. Maybe others are the same. I'm sure a lot are larping with bandanas. You are uncomfortable with people trying to do what they feel is right and you are complaining to the management, looks like.
Not hardly! But I have a keen interest in health. This particular observation came from hobnobbing with hospice workers who had clients in many facilities. My mother was in assisted care for mental reasons but she had been wasting noticeably almost a year before and rather perked up from this one caregiver who lavished love and food. I had her autopsied eventually. She had had pancreatic cancer and other destruction for almost three years and died of a PE secondary to lack of mobility. You never know.
edit: duh, OT for off topic, not occupational therapy, which is actually another underrated modality imo.
I have been, so many always could use more interaction anyway, it must be terrible now. Especially if a bunch of your peers just died at once.
