maybe not, the preliminary report was that it might be as mild as Omicron 1. I am disheartened at this American drive to declare victory before anything is actually won though. Sure case rates are plummeting, but from an unbelievable high level to a level that we still would have thought bad a year ago, plus you have to question how much case rates even mean with so many people testing at home with mild cases that are certainly not getting reported. I mean people could give it a damn week to see which way the next breeze blows. I don't want to hear about how 'tired' people are. This is not fatiguing - forced labor is fatiguing. This is just annoying. It's gotten to be like a neighbor's dog that barks too much, you don't have to end up in psychic puddle over it.

I’ve seen some dumb tweets. And then there’s DUMB tweets.

I'm all done with people who say they are all done with Covid.

Like how he subtly says died with COVID instead of died of COVID.

I've been busy lately and haven't paid attention to news, but catching up and Saager Enjati is reporting that Abrams specifically stated that everyone needed to be masked before she would enter.  Add to the fact that now she's throwing out the race card, "It was shameful how republicans have used black history month reading event to fuel a pitiful and predictable critique."

This isn't going to help her win governorship.  Like Trump, she still has an outside chance that the courts rule the previous election was stolen from her and she gets to ascend to the throne.

I know, couple of compliments from you in just a few days.  You like how I added that nugget of information about the election, as everyone wants to pretend Trump was the one that came up with stolen elections?

[pfife]

honestly it was weak bro

Saager Enjeti is a reporter? Does that make MSNBC prime time legit reporters too?

I dont care, what Stacy Abrams did was dumb and it probably will, at least in the short term, hurt her image, but I'm not sure why I would trust reporting from someone who hosts an opinion show.

I meant to point out I simply heard it from his show for full transparency, he was pulling from a source which I'm assuming he mentioned but I didn't grab.   If Maddow references a Reuters story, i'm going to trust data she pulls out of it, but yeah, I may question her spin on it.  You can confirm the quote portion directly from Abrams instragram.  

Overall, it probably isn't that big of an issue, but it will definitely be used against her.

I'm not arguing, I just wonder what's wrong with the source? Did you read the thread? I never heard of the guy but he sounds legit.

He's a scaremonger.  If you listened to him 18 months ago we were all going to be dead by now.

Basically every few weeks he tells us the sky is falling and things are going to hell.   Yes, sometimes he's right but broken clock.

Ohhh...ok. I thought he worked for the CDC. I guess I read that whole thread for nothing. Gotta wash my eyes out. 😁

Covid is "a godsend" to Republicans according to Republicans 

 

[pfife]

Can't believe no one is here to defend that.

[Mr.TaterSalad]

Trump was appointed by God to deal with Covid didn't you know. He was a Godsend to public health.

Washtenaw County checks in at 103 cases and 0 deaths this morning - that is under 30/100K for the 1st time since October.

Prince Charles tests positive after seeing the Queen recently. He's getting desperate enough to try to kill the old bag now.

seriously.... Usually one spouse goes fast after the other dies.

I can’t imagine how tired she must be of all of this. 

[chasfh]

Tired and widowed though she may be, since there’s an entire medical bureaucracy dedicated to keeping her alive at all costs, there’s a good chance she outlives her mother.

[Tigerbomb13]

Fantastic

Too lazy to bump Chaz's vaxxed and relaxed post but I'm there now.
